  • What's up, lil Honda bros! The suspension is done and I've kinda got the wheels figured out, so it's time to take the Civic out to stretch its legs and let the VTEC kick in, yo!

    It's a testament to Honda that so many die-hard fans come back or stick around into their 30s, 40s... hell, I've come across plenty of 60+ S2000 and new Type R owners. When you look past that commuter car focus, Honda really does make some awesome driver's cars. When you have one of the best motorsports/racing history of any auto brand, I guess that's not so difficult.

    Word of advice on the traction bar. DO NOT GET ONE. I bought the Full-Race Traction Bar and its a nice piece but once installed it makes it near impossible to make a U-turn on these cars. To make it work I had to switch my front LCAS and Sway bar over to the Civic EX models version to make it work and be able to U-turn properly. It's the positioning of where the radius arm mounts to the LCAS, they are more inward on the dx,lx,ex style LCAS and further out on the original 99-00 Si LCAS. Just thought I'd share. Beautiful build by the way!

    Don’t play the “find that sound game” with civics. You’ll never win. But everything looks solid! Check the front fender liner clips, those are typically the first point of contact in the front. Replace them with low profile pop clips and you might get an extra 1/4 inch of travel.
