I use the term "honda toaster" referring to ep3 civics but this is by far the most toaster-ish honda I've ever seen

Thanks guys!

This thing has a p8r head right? If so, that's the best flowing non v-tec B series head out there. Shave the head and add a thinner head gasket to bump the compression up and you'll get some pretty nice gains. There are also quite a lot of cam options for these, or you could regrind the stock ones as these engines were meant for good fuel economy on crap gas(low lift/duration cams, low CR). Best of luck, when I was in high school I helped build up a 150fwhp p8r high comp block integra and it was definitely the most satisfying build I've ever been a part of.


Does this thing use the standard B series intake mani setup and exhaust mani?

I believe it does have the p8r head, it's definitely the high compression b20b. it also seems to have the standard b-series exhaust manifold, but has the very tall c-rv style intake manifold. A mild cam would be pretty cool!



finally managed to get a proper size comparison with a 1st gen Scion Xb


Finally got around to installing a radio that works in Canada, as well as some new speakers




Slept in the toaster for the first time! it's actually not bad at all asides from a slight difference in height between front and back seats


The front of the van looked a little off without a front plate, so I spent some time on photoshop and recreated the plate they show in the brochures and had it custom printed.



Cruised up to Edmonton for the 780 Season Opener Meet, and naturally stole some photos of the toaster from DodoLogic



Bought an ARC intake chamber that I believe is for a b18. plans are to polish it up and modify it to work with my engine bay.


The Volk wheels I had bought were proving to be a real pain to try and restore, I couldn't seem to get them back to their original semi polished state thanks to all the corrosion and pitting.

so instead of fully mirror polishing them I opted for powdercoating.





(Yes I mountain bike quite a bit , not just some goofy rack for show)

And Finally, I got my Defi gauge cluster installed. the black square in the middle is a screen which will be running HKS Camp as well as a backup camera very shortly


till next time

[MommysLittleMonster]

I'm a Honda nerd at heart and I've never seen one of these on this side of the pond. Very cool.

[DUTCHswift]

ok this is fucking rad

[190Evan]

Dude this thing is nuts! I need one. That thing looks like the ultimate adventure vehicle and those wheels suite it perfectly. Extremely jealous.

[FunfGang]

This is awesome! I've always loved those wheels and thought they were under used, I think they're a perfect fit on there.

[ABE24]

Niceeeee

Mega delayed update time, better than never I guess.

I decided the best thing to do to the car was drill holes in the roof


It's an incredibly painful experience to do yourself, especially if your the type to get worried about screwing it up. I didn't like the factory available bars at all, and the universal clamp style (thule style) bars left a lot to be desired and could wreck the paint, so I decided the custom install Yakima would be the ticket.

after a few stressful hours I had a functional rack


And a few successful test runs later



Eventually upgraded to a full suspension Santa Cruz, which just so happened to match


Eventually tracked down the factory privacy shades! should be great for overnighting in the toaster.



I had bought some "stainless steel" license plate hardware from Canadian Tire, but they didn't hold up so well. Ended up replacing them with some Password Jdm fender washers.


And the best for last, Ended up scoring some Volk GT-P wheels off japan yahoo. still deciding on how to refinish them.
