Well ive owned a 1995 automatic zenki for about 2 years now, but i sold it last week, an have moved onto something i like much better "no offense" But i will own me another zenki sometime down the road, but anyways here is my new ride an dont mind the color because i bought the shell for cheap an swapped a motor into it all for 3200 bucks.

Looks clean. I like the look of most civic hatches. I don't even find the color too bad, but that rear spoiler is no good in my opinion.

I have had a few civics. Price isn't too bad concidering it included the swap. The good things about them is stock reliability, gas mileage, and great winter car. I'm not a big fan of the fender or rear midwing, but you got it cheap. The 240 is a fun car but sometimes impractical.

how does that bule interior look like? Feel Like? Is it a good mod? Looks like it doesn't belong? Goes well with the rest?

Its kind of hard to tell in those pics.

hahah You have GOT to leave the s14 plate!!!!!

switching from a nissan to a honda - err iunno (not a big honda fan here) - but i'll give you props, although i don't like the valve cover, you gotta good deal on the hatch and it looks pretty nice on the outside (not a fan of blue stuff inside).

There are only a few honda's i would own as daily drivers, not to modify, and those are -

92-97 preludedel sols2000 (pssht if i had the money)and a 5sp., 4wd, Passport

So... good luck w/ the car man...

Hondas are good cars. They can make respectful NA power. But about moving on to better things... .lol But really it's a nice little EG6: the colors a little loud, but a nice car all around. Happy motoring.

OK i got 2 sets of front seats i got 2 gsr seats and 2 del sol seats. But i have yet to take my seat out an put the delsol seat in there. And as for the interior i didnt paint the car or interior that color, you gotta remember i bought the SHELL because i got a good price on the b18 gsr motor an i needed a car to put it in. I dont really mind the blue interior too much since my car can back it up sort of lol.....ASK that mustang driver who laughed at my car he didnt like the look of my tail lights too much. But yeah its aight compared to the s14 even though the s14 was rwd it was auto so it wasnt really fun to drive. But i would like to own one again some day.

Actually, having a "S14 TUNR" license plate on a civic is really shameful.

The only type of civic I really like. To bad about the fenders though. Those things are one of my biggest pet peeves. See my sig? That's what they're supposed to be on. Other than that and the afore mentioned color issues it's a nice car and a great car given what you paid for it.

I would lose the:-mid-wing in the back-blue interior-fenders-color

Otherwise, very nice EG6, I've been thinking about getting myself one as a daily driver. Is that a B16A2? I don't know my Honda engines by sight very well.

Yesterday, I found out that the last DC2 ITR engine (B18C5?) had a factory redline of 8900rpm. That's nuts! I want one!!

I absolutely love the 92-95 hatches and that one has some potential....but I just can't get with that car...

What was your s14 like if a car with a good amount of rust, mismatched seats, painted blue interior, and construction orange is better? I mean its got potential, but needs a ton of work.

i also dont know honda engines at all... for all I know that could be a beast of a car. but I know it has potential. nice car

Im a Honda boy at heart and no thats not a B16a2, its a B18c1(DC GSR). All my friends have Honda's.. I want a Honda, people can deny it all they want want but these bishez are LIGHT and can be made very fast especially an EG hatch.. My friend around here is getting 11's on his N/A eg hatch(yeah thats right N/A) If any of you are interested in it let me know i'll get a link up, its an amazing car. Dart sleeved block, BUILT bottom end, BUILT B16 head. 13something:1 C/R(forget exact number) Oh yeah, and some weight reduction, not as much as you'd think though.

colors good, the rear spoiler is not a problem, now the front bumper could be better lol. bmw fenders? too bad they're on it already lol.

just work out the interior, you got a good deal. but I still wouldn't sell a S14 for one lol.

I'm gonna get a coupe cuz I have no other option then upgrade to a Silvia when I get the money lol. boy will that be a happy day...

so how was the transition from the Nissan to Honda sound? lol they do sound like angry bumblebees with the wrong exhaust on lol (but not as bad as a hyundai accent! GEEZ!)

AAAAAH! look out! it's a swarm of beeeeez! chill nigga it's an accent and civic comin down da street
