❤❤❤
I love that build. Throtl does amazing things with cars man
Thanks Mark!
How about Honda Prelude Rear-Wheel-Drive for the Conversion Drift.
This is a dream swap I’ve thought of. Either do it to a prelude or a 9th gen accord, coupe
Yes please currently in process of doing a rwd lude !
A new engine for 2-JZ Swapped for along time ago.
A lot of more parts for Prelude.
Hoods, Interior, 3 Doors, & More.
Out side off the obvious S2000... the prelude was the most rear-wheel drive looking Honda 😅😮😅😁 and that's with respect to the NSX guys.....
@@kingmaybus8409 yep would have made a killing rwd
Everything about this civic is so sick
Let's Go Larry!!! I will say this a thousand times thank you for bringing this car to my attention!💯
Love too see another one with that widebody. motivates me to get the power to match the outside on mine!
Yessssss, more Throtl features!
The gen before and this gen are still y all time favorite hacthbacks ever made. I have loved this build since he started it. That is the dream Honda RWD build.
Agreed 100%
Thanks Larry. Honored to have you feature and drive TheFREK!
man I would love to drive that, I used to have a Sierra Cosworth on 195 50 15's with 480bhp
Get it together Honda, we need more honda powered rwd
Yup. Will never buy a brand new fwd car again. We dont need an expensive sports car like the 86. Just a cheap rwd corolla or civic.
Larry Chen is the truth.
😂🤙🏼
That kit is 🔥 🔥! I need it for my gs! I love the squareish fenders
It is such a nice build and showcase. Thank you for sharing.
Love this thing. Always wanted to build a RWD Civic.
hands down one of the coolest civic in the planet.
This looks like such a good sleeper build. It's also obvious that the car isn't setup for drifting and I can feel Mickey's frustration, where you know you can do better, but the car doesn't let you. If a proper driver helps the Throtl team to dial in the suspension as necessary - the guys would love it. Also, to be quite honest - some practice is also needed. Quinn (love you man!) mentions that the Civic is short wheelbase....but it's not actually. It's 103 inches, whereas the proper drift platforms (S or Z for example) are both under 100 inches wheelbase.
Huh in what way is that a sleeper?
@@Rightfvlly many riced out hondas out there. Not many that are rwd with 550hp.
@@rideepicdriveepic rwd and 550 hp doesn't have anything to do sleeper factor
@@rm6330 what are you, 13? If the car weighs 2000lbs as estimated, then 550hp is ridiculously fast potential
@@rideepicdriveepic Mate even at 13 that car still looks nothing like a "sleeper"
And anyone using imperial measurements gets a Merica pass tho dw
super cool getting to see Larry drive!
The widebody kit is really nice!!
Definitely looks like it needs a bit of dial in with the caster and camber to promote a self finding center as it goes sideways. You could prolly drift it fine still, but it looks a bit extra snappy past nuetral. Awesome build, glad I watched all the episodes. I really like the White livery rework, super fresh and mean looking.
Sweet build!
STill a badass build!!
Reminds me of Jimmy's nissonda
The Nissanda😍 I fell in love with that car and I wish they revised it spoon and Jimmy could really have some fun my two favorite cars I love the s13 and I own an ek coupe too so the whole build combined was amazing
Please program the Haltech screen to flash *DANGER TO MANIFOLD* when you engage warp speed over-boost.
Please.
LOL. I love this!
So awesome
Isnt the oldskool BlackWidow widebody kit alot wider?
Ive literally dreamt about this build while pooping for 3+ years
The best ideas do come on the pooper 🤔
Man that's a long ass poop
Poop dreamin 🤔💭💭💭
should have same wheelbase as a S13 but itll be more twitchy like a BMW but you can notice the grip level with him just having to rev it out so much dispite less at the rear
Where's ddes track day Larry we have been waiting 🤣🤣🤣
He needs to Dail in more positive caster in the front and tow in in the rear should help hopefully
There should be more honda builds just like this one
how about mid engine RWD civic..?
Nice
Maybe 17s will have better grip?
My "Push to Pass" (scramble) has a sticker of the Macho Man on it...
I fucking love this thing. Especially the continuous improvement.
Looks good but I like when was black
Ek hatch coupes and sedans has a longer wheelbase than an s chassis.
The car doesn't self steer. For that, you need caster!
Some angle will help too because it will quicken the slow civic steering.
BTW thanks for sharing what you broke! I spoke with Sone @ S1 about the rear arms he sold you guys. I was goin back n forth between using AWD arms and fitting an S chassis rear sub frame. Looks like I'll be going S chassis now!
Throtl spends a week at Jimmy Oakes shop and gets jealous of his rwd kat civic 1:10
I actually started this build before Jimmy did. But, that's neither here, nor there. I LOVE JIMMY AND THE BOYS
When RWD and Beard are life
I think it would’ve been cool if Honda kept the base models front wheel drive and put the Si and Type R platforms on a rear wheel or all wheel drive setup. People who purchase those platforms are enthusiasts anyways… I dunno 🤷
Wish the other Nissan boys would rwd some sr20 fwd cars it's nothing for well off people to do 1000hp sr20 in my home Australia
maybe i remember wrong, is spoon done something like this..??
That gearbox and diff are going to hate life with a 275 width tire and more horsepower lol
Only one way to find out. 🙂
What I would give for a correct wheel drive K engine Civic :'(
Why we never got a RWD or AWD Civic Si from the factory is beyond me. Honda missed out on the opportunity to go against Subaru and Mitsubishi in Rally. Those drivetrains would've definitely made up for lack of horsepower. The FWD could have been limited to the base models. Just imagine how fun it would have been to hit vtec on straights and drift around corners (besides the s2000)
Δυνατό project.
Yeah, the car looks like it has great front end grip. But the rear is seriously lacking.
That short wheel base and all that power must give the driver problems.
It's almost like a “tuck-on Civic-body funny car” on an S2000. My short-cut way to oversteer my 2000 EK 1.6 hatchback is to simply skip the front anti-sway bar & riding on 185/65-14 tires @ low speeds w/ 320mm Momo steering wheel.
soooo the takeaway is 4wd??? :)
So weird to see EK hatch drifting lol
Only RWD hatch I can think of is 1 series Bmers in Europe.....
Honda going sideways are fun to watch
I just don't know what to say unless WOW
I dont think its a short wheel base. Civic has a larger wheel base then RX7 and 240sx.. should be a sweet drift car.
Does Anyone Know This Drift Pads Name? 🤔 It's in SOOO Many Drift Videos! Me Being in North East Tennessee, its like I know its out west somewhere, but thank you if you put the name!😁
The Balcony at Willow Springs Raceway
@@mickeyandrade3435 ah man thank you
If they stop chasing HP and focus on handling it could be a real beast.
No one is chasing horsepower here. It's literally on wastegate spring pressure this whole video.
Less is more.
@@mickeyandrade3435 500+ is not chasing HP?? Ok......
These should have been rear wheel drive from Factory this looks the tits
Another perfect example of where HONDAs has gone no stoping it . He said 275 tires on the rear 😮 on a ek.😂
the only thing missing honda was a rear wheel drive
Nobody has the balls to do what honda failed to do back in the 90s. RWD Prelude Type SH rival to the silvia 😮
Definitely need more tire for grip....
I personally think a saloon or coupe would've been the better choice for conversion
2 door Accord
@@OffensivePlayer316 anything with a longer wheelbase would've been better
I need them to build more EV’s the TeslaZ was an epic build.
You gey like aid
Larry look hella nervous
like a truck, 2 12" in a box in the back for extra weight :p
Every new build gotta drive the car and work out the bugs...
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷✌🏼✌🏼
Fix that sound edit at the end shit is so loud lol
I want someone to do the opposite. Like make a FWD 350z😂😂😂
I would have just dropped the entire engine/drivetrain into the backseat and gone from that. Cool project though.
But can you really do it yourself though?
They already have shown some impressive fab skills, so I would think they could.@@BETTALIFE101
You can do all that in a 120hp 85 corolla
Except it not nearly as cool. Ive owned an 85 Corolla and speak from experience.
This is obviously one of those builds where just because you can doesn't mean that you should. It looks well executed but the chassis balance is not going to allow for easy drifting. RWD may be more fun but Honda engineers know much more about making a car stable and fast around a corner than most of us do.
The chassis balance clearly allows for easy drifting.. it is essentially not very different to a Silvia
What might have been... Sigh
Rear will be very light for RWD and not enough down force for grip.
Short wheel drive was never ideal for drifting.
Third
"No S-chassis parts bc Honda parts yo"
"So basically I used AE86 pickup points for suspension setup" 😂
Car is rad but looks like a rhd Mitsubishi Mirage 😢
I think you should go back and re listen to what was said. It has and 86 sway bar. All suspension "pick up" points are oem Honda.
@@mickeyandrade3435 11:25 clearly not true mate 😂
Why!!!!
AWD would have been better
No, RWD drifting is superior to AWD drifting.
Ngl it drifts awful like soooooo bad. But i can imagine with some good tuning it could do it
John 3:16 (KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Who ya gonna call ? Mike Kojima @MotoIQ for proper suspension/chassis setup
