Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Hector is going to be running three Honda civics with spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three t66 turbos with nos, and a motec exhaust system.
I’m dying here Matt. I haven’t heard the Fujitsubo name in forever. I never liked the skunk 2 exhaust on any car and especially the SI. My buddy had one new and we never liked the skunk 2. Smart move taking off the header too. Besides Toda Im not sure I would use anything else on the SI. Loving this build being my buddy had an SI as his first new car and I had a 2000 celica gt-s 6 speed also my first new car and we both were in college studying engineering and playing/dreaming about what we would do if we had more money for mods. Living the dream through you now. The car scene was so different back then and most people have no idea what it was like but you def do and it’s another reason I love these vids. Awesome work.
Yo, it takes us back to a different time. The hang outs and meet ups, just cruising together, so much fun. I just bought a 99 Civic Hatch i'm building with my sons.
Team Ghast it was so different. I remember going to HOT IMPORT NIGHTS in Atlantic City and Philly. I went to a show every Wednesday night as well after class. Awesome memories.
Thank you so much for doing this build. I never thought of buying an Integra again and modifying it the right way as a grownup. I'm living vicariously through you with this build. Btw that blue is the best color hands down on a EM1.
This is like a 2005 flashback for me. Comptech references and all :) I've had 4 fujitsubo exhaust over the years. They are great, fantastic welds and certainly not overpowering or loud. Great choice.

You should go with an LHT Ti setup for exhaust man.. LHT makes some of the best sounding exhausts for Hondas.. You cant go wrong with a custom Titanium V-band setup and you can easily mis-match resonator/muffler combos with replacing the whole exhaust. I cant afford Titanium, but I did go with 304 SS K-Teller piping and V-bands with Vibrant 3 inch muffler and and Ultra Quiet resonator and it sounds great.
17:02 A tip, when braking put the ball of your foot on the whole pedal, not just the edge of the pedal. That's the best way to do it, especially during heavy brake use.
I bought a 95 240sx in 2006 for $1,500 with the only mod a cold air intake, since then I simply did a fujitsubo full exhaust, tomei lsd, 300zx full brake upgrade, 5 lug conversion, the things I believe the car needs to be better... Its a great car to drive, well balanced, great on gas, 5-speed, never drifted by me or the previous owner according to him, this was before drifting really took off, I cant see myself parting with it cause it handles like cars 10x the price, I drove newer sports car but its just something about the feel, sound, and rawness of the 240 I love it... Nissan did an excellent job and its so easy to work on...
I wish I was still on the route that had me picking up your orders. It was cool meeting the guys at Obsessed....even though y'all always filled my truck up
I don't know for sure but that little strip of heat tape might be for the arc in the rear bumper to keep The tip from melting the plastic.. Which it doesn't seem that close but.. just a thought.
I think I actually prefer the look of the WS2. You’ll most likely get more grunt out of the toda headers than the Megan headers which might give you the sound you want.
I think that Apex'i muffler is chambered hence why it's so quiet. The Skunk2 from before and the Fujitsubo are probably both straight through. Also, I think the heat shield applies to the rear bumper cut out to help keep it from possibly melting.
Love what you're doing, and I like how you make your edits literally like hanging out. I'm very excited to see what choices you plan with the B18C, are you getting the 4.4 or 4.7 Final Drive? plans to upgrade? Might I suggest, with money really not being an issue, the possibility of a WaveTrac 1.5 Differential (Best Technology, Transferrable Lifetime Warranty), and upgrading to a 4.9 Final Drive? Have you considered a smaller width Wheel & Tire set up? 15x6.5 with RE71R would out perform any other tire right now (in that width) and with a lighter wheel and tire, your future of Spoon calipers and 2 piece rotors, the lighter battery (possibly lighter hood since the door was painted), matched to a 4.9 Final drive.... The weight added from sound system and dynomat keeps rear planted I bet, and with that new suspension set up car will be Boss (It already is). It's literally never been done, The haters are quiet now, LOL Edit: Are you going OEM Wrinkle Red Valve Cover? or will you keep the OEM Wrinkle Black? Most people would go Red, I would too if it was a legit JDM B18C, but black looks very clean and classic. Cheers.
The k-tuned shifter is a thing of beauty you don’t feel like you have to have the ghetto lean to shift gears. It comes in super helpful when shifting around the track. You can still put a boot on to take away from the sticking out look. Ps... when you come to your senses and get rid of those horrible spoon stick ons I’ll trade you my mirrors for those RE-30s 🤪😉
The B18C is going to change the tone Js Racing or toda racing exhaust might give you sound you want but if you add the header and a test pipe to those candidates it’s drone city. The fujitsubo might be the winner in the end once you hear it opened up with the header, test pipe, and B18C added to it. Great content as usual sir
Do you still have any parts left over, I’m getting an EM 1 ready for my sons first car. I know I’m about a min late finding your videos but I’m hooked now!👍
After that downpipe change and cat delete, it might be chucking the old exhausts on seeing as it looked pretty painless and check what their new sound is. You might be pleasantly surprised
Had a skunk2 on my em1 as well. It was awful. Apexi WS is subtle. Interested to see how the complete exhaust system works out. I currently have an RMF header, 2.5” high flow cat and Hytech twin loop cat back on my ITR. Also a CT Engineering ice box. Springs on stock dampers is a fail. H&R and Koni Yellow ride a lot better. I would suggest adding ITR steering rack to the list if it’s not already in the works.
Matt just curious why you didn't consider a J's Racing exhaust. If you did consider it I didn't hear you talk about it. It is the best sounding b series exhaust I have heard recently.
Let it break in before you change it again. You need to drive the car with the exhaust. Allow the exhaust to get up to temp and cool . The sound will change it just takes time. A test pipe will help also.
Your car definitely has tilt steering wheel. It's on the left side under the column. Lever goes down, you can angle the wheel, then lever back up to lock.
Seeing the rear suspension there while working on the rear muffler made me think about the rear lower control arms. Any chance you got suspension for the Integra Type R? The stock Civic LCA’s are super weak and janky stamped steel. Type R rear LCA’s are much beefier C-section arms, with the eyelet and bushing on the bottom of the rear shocks. A worthwhile upgrade over the weak stock junk.
I’ve had my Em1 for over a year now and finally getting around to doing to mods. I am going for the same exhaust setup you did with this one. Who did you order your Fujitsubo exhaust from if you don’t mind me asking.
Door was repainted? That is super shady if the seller did not mention that. I wonder if it was in an accident... Look how clean that undercarriage is... jesus. Matt might be a good idea to wear some eye protection. That dropped pipe really could have did some damage had it hit you in the eyes. The edge on some of those parts can be very sharp. I don’t like wearing eye protection myself, but have had one to many close calls. The suspension you are planning sounds nuts. Keep up the good work.
When the b18c goes in the exhaust will liven up a little bit from the extra volume of air moved. That's what I experienced with a thermal exhaust system and same swap.
My build is a lower budget but very similar in feel to Matt's with mine starting with a 42k mile car. I have ZERO regrets going with a JDM b18c type R with trans. I have a 97 spec with 4.4 fd. I pull away from anything that originally came with a K20 or 24 EASILY. I would like to do a 4.7 fd but with 97 gearing vs 98 gearing, but it is 100% not needed.
Depending on what you plan for the car would dictate what motor to use. B18c would be period correct, k would be newer and faster but k series trans are not as good as B imo, for a budget build or bang for buck not needing the bling factor I would b20v all day and pocket all the extra money, while walking a b18c
Hello Matt,I m Benny,I saw your you tube , replace fujitubo RM01A exhaust in Honda EM1,can you tell me where can find a new one set RM01A exhaust,thank you so much

Junk2 never sounds good on any car
The build keeps getting better and better keep it up the honda bros will be proud
This is a seriously cool build.. never thought I'd be so excited to watch a civic build Lol.. love it.
Can we talk about the reflection coming from the bonnet when he’s driving the Honda?? That sh*t is beautiful!
Nathan Crook I looked at it all the time when he’s driving I don’t know why.It’s just so so nice.
Had a full Fujitsubo Legalis R with header on my old 02 Altezza it was such a fantastic exhaust not too loud and not too quiet was perfect.
Thank you so much for doing this build. I never thought of buying an Integra again and modifying it the right way as a grownup. I'm living vicariously through you with this build. Btw that blue is the best color hands down on a EM1.

I don't understand why you go through all these stages when John at LHT can easily do a very high quality titanium full system.
Yeah really. That Ti twin loop setup on the turbo Integra project was bonkers!
The twin loop he does is insane good and sounds pretty tame as well
Exactly
I wish I was still on the route that had me picking up your orders. It was cool meeting the guys at Obsessed....even though y'all always filled my truck up
i have a Fujitsubo power getter on my dc5r and its pretty good, quiet but well made and sounds excellent
I had the Greddy Ti - C exhaust back when I had my EM1. Loved the way it sounded.
Hollyyyy shittt!!!! My favorite exhaust on a mint em1! 😍
I don't know for sure but that little strip of heat tape might be for the arc in the rear bumper to keep The tip from melting the plastic.. Which it doesn't seem that close but.. just a thought.
My brother had the DC Sports cat back with test pipe and GReddy header and it sounded amazing
I wish I had the money to trial an error many different upgrades to see what you like best , this car is coming out awesome
@obessedgarage quick question, what was the part # for this? Did you get it for the EK9? EG or DC2? Thanks in advance man! Going for this same set up!
that laugh "haha" only a honda can do that! exhaust sounds great Matt!
I Want to See a Pic with the 3 Blue Cars. Porsche, M3 and the Civic.
I think I actually prefer the look of the WS2. You’ll most likely get more grunt out of the toda headers than the Megan headers which might give you the sound you want.
Can the coupe exhaust fit a civic sedan?
Sounds pretty good to me! Get a high flow cat or test pipe, header and it'll sound louder for sure
You should make a movie for your Civic. A visual treat for Civic fans.
I love what your doing to this car. Two thumbs up.
FGK for the win! I have fgk on my civic too! I love how they have more deep bass sound
Hurst shifter with centerforce dual friction with spoon diff, perfect!!
yup, this exhaust sounds really good
I think that Apex'i muffler is chambered hence why it's so quiet. The Skunk2 from before and the Fujitsubo are probably both straight through. Also, I think the heat shield applies to the rear bumper cut out to help keep it from possibly melting.
The exhaust will get deeper and louder once you install the toda header and straight pipe. If you order another exhaust do the Mugen twin-loop

You can always get a circuit hero shift extender or do a flp shifter available from jhp.
Test pipe on that exhaust is 👌🏽
The B18C is going to change the tone
Js Racing or toda racing exhaust might give you sound you want but if you add the header and a test pipe to those candidates it’s drone city. The fujitsubo might be the winner in the end once you hear it opened up with the header, test pipe, and B18C added to it. Great content as usual sir
Or maybe even a mugen twin loop if you can source one these days
that hanger was an optional piece you should of left it out what gives you the best tone is the wobble hahaha matt you are the man yoo
The exhaust will get a little louder as it breaks in. I'm in love with this car!!! It's amazing.
Until you remove the test pipe most exhausts are relatively quiet. I’m my opinion you should be doing these tests with no cat.
Do you still have any parts left over, I’m getting an EM 1 ready for my sons first car. I know I’m about a min late finding your videos but I’m hooked now!👍
No man...it's all gone.
Little Honda bros check!
I think you would love the Thermal R&D exhaust.
After that downpipe change and cat delete, it might be chucking the old exhausts on seeing as it looked pretty painless and check what their new sound is. You might be pleasantly surprised
Class is early today! 👍🏽
You should try the Spoon N1 exhaust, it gives a nice deep tone without being overly loud and raspy
could be wrong but maybe the heat shield piece would go inside of the bracket on the muffler to stop the metal on metal rattle maybe lol
I don't think I have ever seen spend this much on a 90s civic lmao in the last 15 years.
I know you are talking to your Honda Bros in this video but you should be cranking the tunes! I want to hear that stereo.
Toyo tires R1R very good grip 👌

Your car definitely has tilt steering wheel. It's on the left side under the column. Lever goes down, you can angle the wheel, then lever back up to lock.
Lmao your reaction to not having the hangers is priceless
That sounds really good
What size anvil is the right angle impact wrench?
Is that not heat tape for the bumper??
The sound is going to change a lot with the header and no cat. Definitely going to be louder.

Can wait to see how it ends
The Lisle hanger tool is much better then the chincy snap on unit. Ive had the SO ones break a few times. The Lisle is cheaper and beefier
I’m quite sure that muffler has a silencer on the end of it does it not? Matt could make it a bit louder just by removing it
Sounds like you’re just over the whole exhaust setup thing lol. Ready to move onto the swap right?
When Matt says “crappy rock auto brake pads”...
But..... I have rock auto pads on my daily driver :(

@14:00 oh stop it matthew your making me blush
I remember my first time and it wasn’t this bad.
I just seen a vid on something that may help you on the handling side is from spoon .. ridgid spoon collars
Sounds good, maybe better with 200hp and no cat?
Where did you buy it from? And if u still have it is it still for sale?
did you get the regamasters in yet?

I cant beleive you didn't go with a DC or HKS HI-POWER Ti. Exhaust
When the b18c goes in the exhaust will liven up a little bit from the extra volume of air moved. That's what I experienced with a thermal exhaust system and same swap.
What Final Drive do you have for your B18? What chassis? Do you still enjoy B18 or would you go K?

Are you based in Florida? Looks like Lakeland Fl
How you have a video on how all three exhaust sound and the headders?
Get pci spherical rear trailing arm bushing there is a night and day difference and the added nvh is minimal
