My ED6... weekend racer on a budget

[M.Doban]

Washed her tonight. First time in about two months. Pretty stinkin' happy about it.

one of the few honda's i like, and from one 19 year old to another, im very impressed with the quality and self fabrication you've done! i also see your location is pittsburgh... where about? im also a pittsburgher and would love a ride in this thing. i have driven a b18 non vtec turbo EG that supposedly put down 400~whp and it was a blast.

Nice build, I`m not a honda guy, but this civic is clean and FAST!!

I like this EF a lot. You went from average LS swap to a whole 'nother ballpark, and it looked good the whole time. I just think Carb'ing this would be a pain in the ass, why not keep the MPFI and tuck it?

[metalmonkey47]

Very nice work sir! And this comes from a Honda ***** so feel proud!

BTW, that rising sun valve cover is pure sex.

Hope you don't mind me throwing these pics up, Micah!

I think what wheels would look nice would be those 5th gen prelude blades ? (idk name) if you were to convert to 5 lug. Just throwing it out there

Why thank you!

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it!

Why carb it? Because dual Webbers LOOK SO COOL. Also, I really can't stand wires. Not just the look, but few things are worse then having to de-loom your nicely tucked harness searching for wiring issues. Also, not many people have carbed their EF. It'd be different!

Hey, thanks for the kind words! Ha! I'm glad you like it.

Not at all, Stuart! Thanks!

I think this is why we get along well

What a great ride.
Though when I was your age I spend my time with girls.

Thanks! Ha! Yeah, for some reason that never works out for me :/


Alright... well I think it's come time to get rid of the old girl. Front wheel drive is for the birds. So I'm building a new motor; an internally stock LS-vtec. I'm going to put the this motor in the car, sell the current engine/turbo setup, and then sell the car.

This is the new block. It needed a hone so I got out all mah tools n'at.



I got the first cylinder done and that's all I could do for the day. All the parts are in the mail so this should be done very quickly (hopefully).

rear wheel drive is cool wheel drive.

Hopefully it goes to a good home, moving on to something bigger and better i suppose?

[FunfGang]

Yes! Nice to see you making progress, man.

For sure! Yeah, I totally plan on getting a 240Z. Also maybe an E30 . Can't wait!

Thanks, buddy! You're so full of awesome! Super happy you got Gretta back on the road!
