You get a big like from me for two things people never seem to do when going this far into a civic build, welding in the antenna hole, and removing the front bumper license holes. Well done!
For some of us, those little things really matter. Glad to hear that other people appreciate the time I put into the subtle / less flashy modifications.
@@luisdiaz9142 Good question. First I used some screen on the backside to help reinforce the openings of the bumper. Next I used a plastic welder (basically a soldering iron) to heat the screen and melt it into the bumper. I built reinforcements pieces that were much larger than the holes from pieces taken from an old bumper and glued them on the on the back side with a special bumper repair epoxy, covering the screens and extending past them to the bumper surface. On the front side I shave down the high pieces. Then for the holes I beveled them out, and filled them with the same bumper repair epoxy. After that the final body work was done with a filler that was made for bumpers, as it will flex with the bumper and not crack... I admittedly went overkill on how I chose to shave them, but I wanted to take every measure possible to ensure that the repair would never show through the paint. ~Nick
@@AutoTechNick to some it may seem like overkill but i say do it right the first time instead of having to do it over and over again. Im in the process of sanding down my ej hatch and respraying it so i was contemplating on how to shave/delete some areas as well. Thanks for the reply!
absolutely brilliant. legendary. what a thorough build and what attention to detail. the best thing is that it looks almost stock outside and inside. practically a true type R of the 5th civic generation straight out of a time machine. it's been 30 years since they were first made. the nostalgia is killing me
Thank you! I really wanted to keep it looking OEM, but step up the attention to detail and craftsmanship. I am stoked that you guys are appreciating it!!
What a dream build. Civic hatches are the cars I got into cars with, and there's just nothing like them. If I were to build one, championship white or medium gray like here would 100% be the move. So clean.
Maaaan cant stop watching this over n over...loved how no short cut was taken and even the roof replacement is Gold love how proper the coating steps are too! Icing on the cake is a nicely "cammed" powerplant with a good exhaust :)
Thanks. I am pretty surprised by everyone’s reactions to the video and the build in general. I thought I was nuts for putting that much work and detail into a Civic.. esp considering that when I built it I attempted to stay away from the popular trends at the time. I wanted this car to stay timeless.
@@AutoTechNick i think that was the key to it... being for something "timeless" and but also cuz the steps you took? are what most in the honda scene call "well restored" but since my other hobby is vw? and since you know what youre doing? this was the ONLY reasonable approach you would have took, so the "properness" took care of itself :)
@@AutoTechNick Had to mention you and the channel on my latest vid as i accidentally used an f40 as an example 🤣 but to make up for it i put on the description a link to your stuff can be had
@@AutoTechNick its cuz locally i believe they should see this! as honestly only a "few" restores eg hatches properly like you did including the "roof cut" and bnew hood alignment! :)
Thank you! That is really cool to hear that you are an OG owner and still rocking the EG!!! Do you have any plans for the EG or will it stay on duty as your daily?
Thanks! I too am also obsessed with this color. Chance's are high that I will have another car and paint it this color again. It really suites cars that are rounder with smoother curves.
It turned out really nice, even if silver isn't my preferred color for these cars. I probably would have gone for something crazier like Mazda's Soul Red Crystal or something if I was already sinking that much money into the restoration. But that's a subjective matter anyway. It looks great and I'm sure the new engine makes for quite the fun drive.
Thank you! I almost painted it that deep metallic green that you see on the Jeep's but in the end I wanted a color that would not draw too much attention. I was very happy with the color selection, but I fully understand how objective color choice is... lol
Hey mate really nice build and nice workmanship I'm building a 91 mr2 hard top given me some good ideas and stage process orde as I'm at the bare stripped body stage hope you enjoy the car as much as the build cheers John NZ
Believe it or not, doing the headliner and door panels was probably the most frustrating part of the entire build. It took me two or three attempts to get that headliner done in one piece with no wrinkles or lifting.
@@AutoTechNick I can't take credit for that term. I got it from @AllDayAnthony here on TH-cam. He's got a lot of great, clean DIY vids on cleaning up his EK Civic. 👍🏼
Thank you 🙏. Since I did all the work myself, I was able to keep the cost of this build to a very, very reasonable price considering the final outcome of the car.
@@StVTakumi My total investment is is very hard to put into a black and white number. I will tell you that it wasn't very much at all, for several reasons. 1. I performed all of the labor myself 2. At the time I had a side business, so I was able to buy my parts at wholesale pricing. 3. I had a 95 EX Coupe that was intended to be my daily. 3 weeks into ownership of that car and I was hit head on by a drunk driver. I bough the coupe back from insurance. I took what I wanted for the build, and I sold every part off that car to fund this build. 4. I replaced the EX could with a Integra LS. Well long story short, I took the good suspension, knuckles and entire B series out of that car, and installed the drivetrain from the DX.. So I was rocking a D15 and drum brakes on the Integera.... I will say that I was very pleased with how low I was able to keep the total spent on the car. I do not think that I would not be able to build a car to that level again on such an incredibly low investment.
My god man. I think I know what you do for a living 😂 Id say something to do with paint and body work. Love these cars and I have never seen this level of attention spent on one. Good for you brother. Thats museum showroom low rider epic quality restoration work. Time is invaluable but I doubt you will ever regret spending that time on that car. It is your child at this point. Keep it safe and I hope you enjoy it for a very very long time until your children can enjoy it.
It's beautiful! How difficult is it to get the sanding and blocking correct on the bodywork? I don't have any experience doing this, but I also don't have any money to pay somebody else to do it. I'm 100% ok with doing the work myself even if it takes longer, I just don't want to damage anything or end up paying more by wasting a ton of time and materials.
It just takes time and practice. Once you know the theory, it is not terribly difficult. To get really good results is takes a tremendous amount of attention to detail and patients within the process. There are plenty of resources out there that show and teach you how to learn these skills. I would read up, watch videos and start practicing. That's the only way to learn!
one of the best builds! can you do a pov driving video with this eg? saw a sound deadening materials from the body, how is the ride comfort from the inside? thanks!
Thank you! The ride comfort was firm, but not bothersome. It was not overly stiff and still had some compliance, but it was certainly firm. As for the sound deadening, I installed it on the roof, inside the doors, and also on the inside of the rear quarter panels. WIth the added sound deadening, and Vibrant Stealth muffler and extra resonator, the car was OEM stock quiet when cruising. When WOT it was much louder, but nothing that was excessive or would draw unwanted attention, which is exactly what I wanted to achieve.
@@AutoTechNick appreciate the reply bro! I'm saving this vid btw for my future eg. loved this build because of the small but functional detail for a daily car(which is also my goal) haha thank you! will hopefully wait for a pov driving this car! hehehe
Thank you Adam. To answer your question the interior for this car was black from the factory. The only change I made to it during the restoration was to cover the headliner, and pillar trim in suede. Other than that it was all as it was when it came from Honda. ~ Nick
@@atah275 Ah I see. I was lucky and started with a black interior so I did not need to paint anything. I have painted some interior stuff in the past with okay results. It just never seems to have the correct shine, or lack of for my tastes.. ~ Nick
I was able to purchase everything directly from the Honda dealership. However I did this build in 2009-2010, so I have no clue what the availability of these parts would be today.
The headliner material was purchased directly from a fabric supplier. The door panel inserts, shift boot and arm rest cover I purchased from someone online years ago. I do not recall from who though. 😞
@@AutoTechNick damn all good, they look super awesome and I literally spent hours on ebay and the web to try and find just the door inserts and I found nothing
That's a beauty, but with all that, how did you not spray in the interior? Same as Honda, no clear or anything, just a scuff and dust in some color. It was all apart already, I fully expected that to happen. Gorgeous car, though... I'd love to add a ferio to the garage.
Thank you. I get asked often why I did not paint the inside of the car. It comes down to cost vs benefit. I would have had to endure the cost of materials (automotive paint is NOT cheap!!) and also the added time and labor to paint the inside. In the end I would have had no benefit from doing this other than the build photos of the car would have looked better. lol. Since I ran a full interior I was very thoughtful on what was, and was not painted to ensure that all the red was covered up. I couldn't justify the added time and expense on painting it when it would have had no effect on the final product.
@@AutoTechNick no, that's fair, automotive paint surely isn't cheap. Not sure if that's a metallic or a pearl, cuz ufffff pearls are expensive!! I only ask because it's one of the main reasons I don't do color changes on my cars; it would drive me mental to know my car is a different color under the dash or behind the door skins. Thanks for taking the time to answer, and congrats on a beautiful completed build 👍 too many projects go unfinished.
Pictures and video do not do the color any justice! When seen in the sun, in person it is just awesome! The color is called “Stratus Gray Metallic” it is a factory, although very rare BMW color. Paint code is 440. ~ Nick
