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 system exhaust
Am I the only one that has watched this 10+ times? This video made me clean my shop and changed how I work on cars. I can appreciate everything they are doing. So cool
I'm not really into these cars but man oh man I respect the heck out of the engineering, manufacturing, and fabrication. I mean serious art here folks.
Japanese tuning companies never stopped being great, unlike the manufacturers. I think that's a big reason why the tuning culture of Japan is so amazing, even today. Sure, the JDM golden age may have ended in the early 2000s, but the tuners don't know/don't care.
Honestly, that price is reasonable for the amount of work and attention to detail AND the legendary creators behind this project. Japanese Singer is a sweet concept.
These guys have the EXACT same idea I've had for some time now, to restore/build brand new versions of older Japanese classics, but with all the appropriate bells and whistles for a fast street car. it's nice to see that idea take shape. My dream goal would be an all-carbon body mk3 Supra, with around 500hp that handles well but is also very comfortable, and nice inside, a perfect Grand Tourer, with the classic late 80's look.
Im sure the light weight chassis will have alot of play in how fast it will feel when driving it along with anything they have done for weight reduction.
@@frivera735 had an EM1 with a NA b16. I loved that car, awesome sound and a lot of fun, newer cars with the same displacement and power are so boring. Now I have a 2zzge :)
I have an EJ8 Civic coupe with a built B18C5 in it and it currently makes 612 whp on a GT3582R dual ball bearing turbo at 22.5 psi. With what I have into my B series, I could've built a fairly bulletproof K series, but I like to stick with my roots (I'm 36 years old) and back in the day when the first FnF came out, it was ALL about the B series. FnF made me buy my first Honda, a DA9 Integra GS that I turbocharged myself. I agree that the K series is a far superior engine to the B, but you can still have alot of fun with the B series. P.S. I also have a CSS forged internals B16A in my basement with a B18C head as a spare engine.
Jared Richardson that’s how I know about a lot of the cars I love and appreciate.. old GT is the greatest, ps2 title has more than double the cars of gt sport in timeless graphics, one of the tiny handful of interlaced 1080 games on it.
Nice to know, I currently own a 1992 eg6 with an sir swap here in the USA and I love it, nice to know that this option is available from spoon, awesome 💯👍👍👍

lol watch as top secret does a mk2 supra and RE does a FC, seeing as Mines is doing a r32 maybe theyll all go for that kinda retro mod kind of thing, not exactly the chassis they are known for, but one in the same family.
@@jhalkoski idk about an mk2 but a top secret mk3 though. That would be sweet. Amemiya's take on an NA miata would also be cool, would be nice to see a screaming all motor rotor setup in there. Top down 14,000rpm redline.
I wanna cry rn, half joy, half sadness. The fact that these companies are back into making the epic cars they made in the early 00s is just amazing. But the fact that i have no chance of owning either of them is painful
2 favorite things about this civic.. 1. The floor and 2 the header.. wow.. the header looks like a hood exit header combined to work with rest of exhaust system...
Thanks for putting this out. I used to pass by there every few weeks then finally one day I stopped and checked it out (through the windows lol) Everything so clean, gearbox overhual room like a freaking laboratory haha.
I would love to owen this beautiful car ! If I ever win the lottery I'm getting a spoon s2000 eg type r civic rsx integra nsx and a new civic type r life would be complete!
I'm honestly surprised that they have not come up with this for the masses! You can also paint over the quarter panel to if you didn't want to see the carbon fibre look, I personally wouldn't paint it though!!
That’s so bad ass man definitely a dream.i turned 16 in 2002 and in Alabama there wasn’t to many resources for jdm parts but I remember having all the old options videos that were awesome back then
I love spoon with all of my heart and have authentic N1 catback exhaust on my s2k. I want to build my s2k with spoon front bumper. But $120k for a civic man that's tough. If I was a billionaire I'd buy one as well as other legend builds.

@@MrPland1992 Well as a mechanic (even half-ass) you should know that B-series honda engines were dead reliable, arguably some of the best engines made no doubt👌
Love this channel! High quality vids. That exhaust manifold is epic. Would love to know more about that, like what cam is being used, what length the headers are before the 4-1 and what they're going for with that build. They said about 200hp... Is there a turbo behind there or does the exhaust just go that way for space saving? How about heat dissipation in the engine bay? So many questions! :D
Dream car right there. Just subbed. That was a perfect little 411/interview video. Super chill, no moronic UA-cam personalities to look past. Hell yeah.
Is that a gear driven cams(no timing chain or belt) on 7:23.. first time ive ever seen it coming from a honda Car engine 🤔 please anyone post some info, really interesting and different.
Fairly sure that is an s2000 engine, the chain drives the single larger gear in the front. If you just google s2000 cams you will get lots of images of it
I mean it would be the biggest privilege to own such a masters piece built by real legends but, I can't see me paying 120 grand for 200hp. For such a price it needs to be 500-600 hp.
Jimmy Walsh brother if only that could happen then the brand would not be though of as the ultimate ricer car it pisses me off as a honda guy when i see those riced out hondas

Great Spoon video ♥️♥️
When i was there it was around the time the FK8 Type R came out and they had two of them in the shop in the first floor and on the other side of the shop, (its actually not very large about the size of 5 or 6 car garage with a car elevator in one corner to move cars to the second floor) was a Honda s600 and a first gen crx , was super awesome they even gave me a couple newspaper style promotional with amazing pictures of the older spoon race cars super nice guys we literally walked in off the street and they let us look around the whole shop even in the engine room. Super amazing place amazingly nice people and some absolutely beautiful Hondas!!
I agree...this guy "I think its worth it...for the ultimate fan boy" lol I thought this was gonna have 600+ HP or something....how can you call it ultimate when it's only 200HP and he goes to justify it by saying its light. This car is expensive cause of the amount of unnecessary labor that went into it.
18magicMARKer it’s expensive not only because of the labor but the heritage and title of a car being built in house by spoon, if you know spoon you know that’s extremely special
For 150K,I personally think that it should be pumping out atleast 400HP,200HP doesn't seem like enough power for this car IMO. They're pros though,so if they believe that 200HP is enough then it probably is. It's never a bad thing to have a good amount of power on tap,in case the driver wants to mash the skinny pedal a little harder and have enough power to put on a show.
Agreed. But it’s on par with the rest of the crazy Japanese parts cost. If I want a full NOVEL exhaust on my car it’s $15k. Just go look at TOM’S parts. It’s insane markup.
All that shit and 200hp I like Spoon but it’s so over hyped lol and over priced. I’ll stick with my own Honda cars and builds . It’s nice eye candy though
Tekboy 808 I understand road racing I do also and I get what you saying but that just won’t cut it. Tell Honda that, they now have CTR make 300+ hp and it’s a road racing car. It’s just too much money that’s all.
@@tadficuscactus one thing they did not mention is if the 200 will be at the wheel vs crank which is a bit more in line with the new type R in regards of power to weight. Its expensive yes but for racing regulations and have a collectible car to some folks its worth the $150k

That is going to be the most exhilarating and smile inducing 200hp.
Would have been cool to see just a hair more power but 200 is going to be PLENTY in that chassis
It seems way under powered for $120,000. That engine looks like it will produce 500 hp without much effort.
Depends if they go na or turbo. Most likely it'll be na.

Agreed. But it’s on par with the rest of the crazy Japanese parts cost. If I want a full NOVEL exhaust on my car it’s $15k. Just go look at TOM’S parts. It’s insane markup.
It's actually built by opera performance ua-cam.com/video/KqRgTaJ1faA/v-deo.html
This video is perfect for quarantine. Thank you 🙏 love you all
All that shit and 200hp I like Spoon but it’s so over hyped lol and over priced. I’ll stick with my own Honda cars and builds . It’s nice eye candy though
The stock engine makes 197 hp. So they will be gaining 3 hp.
Tad Ficus Catus yep 😂😂
Tekboy 808 I understand road racing I do also and I get what you saying but that just won’t cut it. Tell Honda that, they now have CTR make 300+ hp and it’s a road racing car. It’s just too much money that’s all.
@Tekboy 808 yeah it's "adequate" for a road car, but most equivalent road cars cost 1% of the spoon Civic lmao
@@tadficuscactus one thing they did not mention is if the 200 will be at the wheel vs crank which is a bit more in line with the new type R in regards of power to weight. Its expensive yes but for racing regulations and have a collectible car to some folks its worth the $150k
Never did I think back in 1988 looking at a 4 door Si and telling my dad that I "wanted a fast one of those", that a Civic would go for $120,000 G's.
