Lol budget. You got people out of their minds here asking $5-6000+ for an EK hatch that's been cannibalized with no interior, ac/ps, 3 different color panels and has about 320,000 miles. Finding a clean one for a fair deal just isn't really feasible depending on your location. Not here in Houston anyway.

Now I know why I don't have heaps of friends that come help. I don't have a lift.

Some say the dome light in the Civic is still on to this day.

Hey guys, I’m in New Zealand and I’ve got the same engine in my civic Ferio, could you guys please drop down the name of the turbo kit please.

I got the ripps coil packs for my is350 about a year ago. Six months after I bought them I got a misfire. Got it that 1 replaced from ripps. About 5-6 after that another misfire. I called ripps and got a brand new 6 coils under warranty and send the old ones back for testing. This is about 2 weeks ago now so I’m still waiting on results why they keep causing misfires. Considering just going back to OEM coil packs aswell I don’t want to get stranded somewhere with a misfire cause of the ripps coil packs.

On the balkans for chrism, the chrismian godfather buys you something you want and gives you money, i will talk with him if we can find a budget Honda Civic ek9 with the 1.6l vvti engine so i can build it as my first car. After we buy it, i will put a racing suspension and a cold air intake, will try to get 200hp with it.

Budget and Haltech don’t belong in the same sentence.
