civic eg4 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Hi guys, Got my JDM imported civic EG4 . Used for track days and as a grocery getter. Here are a few specs and upgrades done to the car by me: 1. HKS titanium exhaust 2. 16 inch Borbet rims 3. type r badges 4. TEIN shocks 5. upgraded brakes The car is sitting low compared to the corolla next to it and the handling for a car that weighs 980kg's is awesome (can corner a bend at 85km/h easy . will be upgrading the engine to a B16A one day hopefully. The car currently makes 125bhp, give me some your thoughts and ideas to help me make this beast into a better monster track and street car. ohh and what about the prius hating sticker? lol. Yes i do downshift whenever I see a prius, prius drivers hate me lool . The sticker would be good in sri lanka as well considering the amount of those hideous cars on the road.

Komisiripala Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 My bad. There are lots if eg4's here. I thought yours was the coupe used in fast and furious 1 back in 1997. AFAIK there's only one coupe in Sri Lanka. The only other civic coupe, an es8 is with a friend. That I know of at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VVTi Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I dunno Komi, seeing the work youa re putting in, I sometimes catch myself thinking 'Perhaps I should swap the ST/B for a e Teg'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civic eg4 Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 I'm looking into shipping my baby over to sri lanka one day i heard that the tax has been reduced on cars built for the track. If so the EG will have a roll cage fitted and that B16A put in This might take serveral years to happen hopefully that tax rate stays down lol As it is a comfortable 4 seater for the road, when track days come it turns itself into a deadly weapon on the track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komisiripala Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Bringing down an older car is a bit of a process. Lots of red tape. It might be easier for you to ship your performance parts here and start a fresh build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be easier for you to ship your performance parts here and start a fresh build what if i get all the paper work from the Australian customs? they have one of the worlds highest quarantine standards. The civic had gone through road worthy and enviromental hazard laws and standards when it was imported from japan, if i can get those paper work would it help a bit?
