Pay Some Respect! Stellar
improvements in boost on our
project Civic will demand
respect in the upcoming ’08
Sport FWD Season!
The 1996 Civic hatchback EK is
powered by a B-Series, T4
turbocharged motor, to meet NHRA
specs. This motor is fortified
internally with forged pistons
and connecting rods for maximum
street performance. The
modifications make it capable of
500hp while maintaining the
reliability of a stock car. It’s
locked into 20lbs of boost, with
the supercharger running more
efficiently. A Vtec Head with a
mild port and polish with
upgraded valves, valve springs,
and retainers was used. In
addition to the motor
modifications performed, the
suspension and exterior have
been modified to present a
sleek, JDM-looking Honda Civic.
The rims of choice were 15"
Rotas. A skunk-2 suspension was
installed to increase the
stability and handling of the
civic while on the street and at
the track. Suspension mods
include a full coil-over
suspension set-up. Adjustments
to the ride height and corner
weight of each individual wheel,
gives ultimate flexibility for
precise street tuning. A civic
type-r front lip and a duck bill
rear spoiler were installed to
provide a clean look as well as
increase aerodynamics. The
interior of this car was kept
stock with the exception of 2000
front seats. The Civic has the
upper hand in mid- and low-speed
corners with its superior
braking and instant torque. The
chase… join me as we play
cat-and-mouse, corner after
corner. Project Civic’s
brilliance in coping with the
abuse made all its flaws seem
relatively minor. That is when I
decided Project Civic is near
completion… are you ready to hit
the streets and pay some
respect?
