Civic-EG.com Forum 3.3.1

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 1:27 pm #150912 so im looking for a new ride, i cant say im not goign to tune it because i will. cannot help myself.

plus i got spare bits and bots hanging about (ecu's rims, brakes, steel piping, engine bits etc etc)

so .. here is the drama
i LOVE EG's amen
best shap imo
sexy
tunable

as soon as i bought my 1st one i was in love

so now, im looking for another one... b16

thats my problem. i am rather enticed by the old EF with the b16a1 in it.
they are pretty damn sexy
plus they are cheap
but.. i am aware that they are shitty OBD0
and the EG's are OBD1.. so

the question is

would i be stupid to buy a EF just coz i fancy it?
or do they have as much ponentail as the EG?
i no i will have to convert it to OBD1.. but the saying that, i will end up changing the IM, the injectors, rail, dizzy and ecu... and maybe the tranny.

so all in all.. will it be worth doing all that shite, when i could just spend the extra £500+ on a EG??


thanks yallz

Yeaaaah Buddy!!

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 1:31 pm #150914 I really like EF's they can look and be oh so sexy! Same goes for Eg's. Its just going to personal preference dude... If you want an EF, get one and build it up, there is just as much potential in an EF as an EG IMO.

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 1:34 pm #150916 Here's a local homo's EF hatch with a B17.

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 1:36 pm #150917 personally i like the ef better but parts aren't as interchangeable as with the eg.
that said, get what you want

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 1:56 pm #150923 as said by the decepticles- BOOSH

SICK

loving the bra

well... there is a few for sale that i like... some EF b16s and some ED non vtec's

they are rare as hell over here. never EVER see an EF
.. or an EG
its either-
a EK or EP
and then the EPs are usally 9/10 driven by a chav/ football fag.


we in Britian have a SERIOUS problem with "rice" altho, its not usally jap... its french shite

there should be a ban on Saxo's.

Yeaaaah Buddy!!

AW come on now.. this is HAWT..

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 2:13 pm #150925 i want to find the owner and feed his balls thru a turbo


WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU DO THAT ?!

i no a few geezers who have saxo's 106's etc

and when even i go to the car park there are always like-
"so when are you putting your interior back in like"

or

"if i had my car stripped out, id slam loads of sub in there init"

fucking ROTATE

and then when the EG sails past they say.. DAMN why is your car that quick..

well its not THAT quick. its just you drive a saxo that happens to have 10 subs in the boot

Yeaaaah Buddy!!

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 2:54 pm #150934 one plus is that EF's are lighter than EG's. Every gen civic gets bigger/heavier.

I like the 2 piece hatch/tail gate of the EG, and like the way the engine bay is layed out better with the wiper motor in the cowl area.
EG's also have the integra to swap parts from.

It's a tough call... EF's can be sexy as hell too when done right

- Thu Oct 15, 2009 2:58 pm #150936 You can swap SOME parts from a DA to an EF and also CRX parts.

*bows*

urgh i wish i lived in the states

you guys get everything
decent breaker yards
cheap fuel
chipotle...



well... i might just go ahead and do the obd1 swap
whats the diff between the A1 and A2 then?
apart from the tranny, ECU, obd1 and about 10hp

any way that i can get a Skunk2 IM on there? apparently you have to mod it?

cant see why you'd ned tom just use obd1 inectors etc

?
