Too bad you went all Junk2 parts. You said that you think its original but having Skunk2 everything doesn't make it original you could have bought so many other rare parts that's the great thing about Civics is there's so many parts that it's easy to keep your car individualistic. Why you would go all Skunk2 like you're some 19 year old kid I really don't understand by the way Skunk2 is American not JDM
+AGuerrin78 thanks for the comment, and you know, to each their own. These are the parts I wanted and they make me happy. I think pretty much all quality builds look pretty darn similar now, rare JDM parts or not, most "JDM inspired" cars tend to look the same. Yeah, someone may have an exclusively rare bumper, or wing or whatever, but you get what I mean.
It's kind of like the whole "track car look" now. So many cars are built with wings, splitters, diffusers, sideskirts, etc and will never get close to a track. I could hate on that like you are on my car but that's not how I work. I love the "effort" people put into their cars, being a snobby jerk is such a waste of time. I never judge a book by it's cover anymore. But either way, thanks for taking a look!
Garage Built Hondas It is getting bloody rare even in South East Asia where l'm located. It is easier to see a supercar on a daily and these HONDAS only come out to play on weekends.
+Princess Solace just like this one! For weekends and fun!
+AGuerrin78 - Nigga gotta pimp his shit up, leave him and his Junk2 alone, LMFAO. Can't be a Nigga without Junk2 and if UA-cam shits doesn't work out. He can always sell the parts while homeless. 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
+Vavazelus lol, not raining on my parade at all. Some people have pretty funny opinions with no real claim to anything their own usually. 😎
I also want to point out. you're literally the ONLY one that actually puts the annotation in exactly where you said. seriously, THE BEST, content here folks!!!!
Man when i get bored I sit around and watch your videos. Sometimes over and over. Love your cars and they style and content you bring. One of my favorite youtube channels. You've saved my ass many times. Thanks brother!
So glad to hear this, gives me more motivation to keep grinding and wrenching away!
Love your car man, would love to get one in the future 👌
Trying to keep it clean like you and all the Cali homies, I love the quality of yours and your friends build and they give me inspiration to do the same!
Garage Built Hondas your car will fit right in with us if you come here haha!!!
+LATOMMYLA that's the plan one of these days!!
@LATOMMYLA also has a clean car, damn!! keep it up guys!
+keepwrenching oh hell yes, I love that hatch!
Pure inspiration for my EF. I like all the upgrades you've done. It would look sweet with a JDM front end.
You drive like a maniac.. I love it
You are a big inspiration to continue working on my wagon and making it better one step at a time. Thanks bro keep em coming.
lol, it's in my nature now. Can't build a car just to look at it!! :)
Been watching your Chanel for some time... thnx for all the gems! I had to come back to this video cause I just found one!! Just like this! One owner! And all original!
Badass man. Keep that thing, you'll enjoy the hell out of it!
Me and my dad just recently picked one up from a uncle that just passed away and I hope we can make ours out to something similar to this!! Beautiful ride!!
Love to hear it. Would be a nice sentimental build too.
This is exactly how i would build an EF! Love the look and simplicity of it.
+Colby Demaray 🙏
I hope to find one of these in Cali within 4 years. One of my all time favorite civics. Good Intel on what you have. Keep up tracking it.
+Alfredo Robles thanks man!!
I'm in Philly And the Hatch and 4 Door is Getting So Rare anymore its Really Crazy!! I Love seeing these Cars..Keep Up The Great Content....
Appreciate it! I'm lucky down here we still see a fair amount of them
Clean and simple = beautiful
H
Love it, simple and clean. Would love to see a jdm front end on it. 😁
Love it! I bought the very first 1991 Tahitian Green Civic si to make it into the state of Tennessee in October 1990. I sold it in 1995 and have regretted it ever since. Nice car.
That's so cool.. I wish I would've followed these cars when they first came out but I was in high school and don't know anything about car s
So beautiful Jon, so so clean! Amazing job!!
I've never been a big fan of these but this one is amazing I'd daily drive this in a heart beat. Great job man super clean.
Beauty! Miss mine so much. One of Honda's favourite designs.
Nice easy rescue. Great rescue for a car that deserves it. Totaled an 88 hatch. Got a CRX 89, swapped in a 91 Si engine. Down to 1985 lbs half tank of gas, no a/c, no carpet, a few splash guards removed, interior partially removed. Great autocross car with Hoosier A6's. Love my girl of 25 years. CSP and hate when Miatas show up.
Right on man, me too!
Beautiful! This is a work of art man, great job 👌
I got my Milano redone with one owner and only 115k in 2012 too. Loved that car! Had to stock di6z6 and she ripped was such a fun car to drive.
Paid 1800 bucks for it back then. 😢
Absolutely beautiful example of a classic Si. In my opinion, this build is just about perfect. Meaningful mods, no nonsense. Awesome car, man.
Much appreciated, means a lot!
If i were to go from Accords to another chassis, I would absolutely copy your SI. Hands down the best channel on you tube!!! Thank you Jon, I needed to hear some beefy goodness so bad!! As always, I love how much you care about your car, it shows in spades!!!!!!!!
P.s. You tube needs an option for me to love your videos...thumbs up just isn't enough
Much love Greg, I love to show support and help trying to keep our community of car nerds growing!!
Man i wish my 91 hb looked that good. sweet ride keep it the way it is!
Thank you Ian!
Just got one 3 days ago.
For $500
A red 1991.
It was late in the evening.
After my heart was broken because i missed a deal on a 2005 Civic for $500.
A lady bought the car so i said to my self: When something is going to be yours it will be. So i went ahead looking for some Honda.
And i found this little thing.
And i thank God for this and for giving me something Better...
Saludos from Puerto Rico💪
So don't feel bad.
At least we have one😁👣🙏☕
Very clean EF hatch. B16 engines are so much fun to rip on.
+slowmanEF thanks buddy!
Why am I just finding this channel!!!!! I thought I was a serious ef fanatic but this is the best thing ever
+Maurice White Hell yeah Maurice!! Glad you found me!! And thanks for the seriously awesome comment!!
Garage Built Hondas oh I subscribed and will be watching ad many videos as i can before I pass out. Not to many guys from your generation can appreciate what we ol school guys call the efs "The Beginning". The simplicity of this car really makes me proud.
+Maurice White Really glad you're here! Love having all the EF and Honda community together! And us EF guys numbers are getting smaller every year!! Glad you like the car, music to my ears!
Wow... I purchased the 90 Sedan. Only issue is I don't have the engine you have but it's such a joy to have such a car from such an era.
I have the ktuned traction bar for 3 years now and still running great. I daily it in the socal weather. Only issue was when new and the joints tight they bind and rattle after it rains. Then the noise goes away after 1 week of driving.
I like the fact that you can mount a smaller civic dual core radiator with supplied brackets on the bar. Only thing I would add to make the bar 100% great is dust boots on the joints.
+Tony C. I'd like to see one next to the innovative. Does it hang low? I heard some people saying it has worse clearance compared to the Innovative bar.
I love the civic EF and urs is one of the cleanest i have seen!!!
Thank you so much!!
Love the sound of a simple b16 singing and hitting vtec! keep up the good work!
+Zach Weisend thanks Zach!!
I watch your videos long time many years always educational and quality
Thank you!
This car is freakin gorgeous!!!! Very clean and mint!!!
Thanks buddy!!
I miss Tahitian green Si! Love your build! Really appreciate the production quality of your videos as usual too!
+Alex Lai love to hear it Alex, thanks for noticing!!
Man really nice and nostalgic ef build. Doesn't hurt that it sounds tough as hell too.
Just found your channel and watched some vids of the white EF hatch. Love your cars!!!
Just beautiful bro am in love with the EF keep it up man
This was an amazing video! Love the sound! True JDM
Big Honda fan, I love what you have done! Beautiful Si.
+Billawag much appreciated homie!
I'm slowly putting all skunk 2 on my car as well....man that is just one beautiful ef you have! I could look at it all day lol I love everything your doing with it keeping it original and everything just a very clean ride my friend!
I'll do my best!!
Love the built....decent enuff taste plus looking at your car brings back a lot of sweet memories from my younger days.👍👍
+Princess Solace that's the best! Glad you like!
I appreciate you for appreciating the “O.E. Look”, I plan on doing the same with my ep. Good stuff mane.
+My Name Is Chavsito thanks brotha!!!
Wow a b16 that does not fart! Looks and sounds awesome.
lmao!!
Had one of these 1st car i bought. Back in the day 2008
Makes me wanna get an EF but the wife is pissed my EK hatch and EM1 SI taking up the driveway, love the vids bud keep it up!
Divorce! lol
I have an All original EM1 and I recently replaced the timing belt and there is to much slack and it idles alittle rough. But other than that love that car and my daily is a 4dr EJ7
Need a new wife.
Lol well for that I bought some stickers.
+Chris Comstock haha, hell yeah!!
Your hatch is a beauty! Sounds so good! Vtec sounds very aggressive!
+Hombre Blanco29 thank you!!
I love this car! Keep up the clean builds!
"Tahitian green" might be the nicest paint name ever.
Great video jon car looks so clean upgrade you did to it awesome keep up great work
Great Vid , Jon !! I hope this inspires the rest of the peeps to make a vid of their own EF project . Love the Seats ..
+Clos Yep thanks so much!! I'd love to see a bunch of other EF build walk arounds!
I miss mine 😭but watching yours is satisfying ☺️
+OMGodfrey lol, love to hear it!
So sick man clean build with all the right parts.
Also fresh build I still don't believe you that it's original paint because it's absolutely amazing, wonderful build! I think you should go OBD1 chipped and tuned and paint the valve cover crinkle coat red or black. Nice work!
Love this car. Can't wait to get back into one
I just got mine 91 39000 Miles civic si same color
.... Loving it
Nice!
I love the clean interior 👍🏻
👍
Love the twin cam b series engines, in my opinion there the best sounding honda engines!
Awesome EF you have there. Clean and quality built.
This reminds me of my uncles EG Si he used to have when I was a kid, very similar color. He had the d16 with a aftermarket cam + supporting headwork, chipped ECU, header, full exhaust and intake. It was pretty fun little car. By no means a racecar but it was a pretty quick spirited daily... i drive a Speed6 now but would love to pick something like this up
That's exactly how I feel about mine. Sporty and quick and just fine to drive!
Garage Built Hondas yours is really clean btw. My twin brother had a full bolt on integra GSR 6 years ago, that was more fun then my Speed6. Something about 8500 rpm, such a blast to wind out.
No kidding, I like Hondas because I'm not rich and they are very budget friendly. But after getting older, if my money situation did change, I'd probably still stick to these EF's. 😁
Looks great ! its always a treat to see a nicely maintained earlier civic, most of then by now have been trashed or beaten to death by now. I really like the way it sounds, not to raspy and droning like a lot of b16's one routinely hears. I'm in the stages of planing out my ef sedan build. At first I was thinking I would do a b-seris engine. But now after pricing things out I'm really interested in going with a H22a from a JDM prelude/accord. That way it will come with a factory LSD and good power while still leaving it stock and reliable.
+LockTest That'll be a ton more powerful than this engine too!!
Hondas are the dopest God sent cars because they are reliable as cars should be🤘
Looks/sounds lovely Greetings from sunny Jamaica.
Hey there!
Great setup, love the mugen steering wheel
+just4ffun Thanks so much, love your IG and content on here!
lmao 6:20 it gets passed by a semi truck and barely catches up, I love civics but that was a laugh, clean car
+skateinspace "doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning is winning!". Lmao
Very nicely done, love the seats!
Just wanted to say THANK YOU for making all of the videos that you do! You've inspired me to finally start working on my 91 teal si. Super nice car man, can't wait to see more especially if you repaint it :D
Youre welcome, and glad to help inspire! Hoping to have more content on this in the future!
Very well done bro, clean af! And dammit boy, those seats are in such wonderful condition! Keep up the good work and great vids bro. Thank you for sharing.
+Paul Murphy thanks Paul!! I'm lucky to have found them!
AWESOME... REMINDS ME OF MY 91 Si, I HAD A LONG TIME AGO...
Thank you!
Get out of here it's FANTASTIC my friend thanks for the video always inspiring
Love it, good inspiration for my ED2 build I'm working on atm
Super clean and functional build💯 well done!
+Luke Michaud thanks Luke!
people shit talking.. it happens.
I don't usually like that body style civic but this is really well done.
simple and clean and it seems you actually built it for yourself and not for UA-cam so respect.
P.S something about the green on that EK9 Body trim that looks so "90's" great. any other car that color doesn't work but I actually love the color. Take care bud and good luck with her.
Thank you!!
sick car...sounds like you put in a lot of time and money into it. I used to have an 89 civic...hatch creaked over every bump but loved it
+P Cho lol, they do that sometimes! I've put some pretty good effort into it, but I love it!
Man, our cars are so similar. 1989 hatch, b16a (obd1 tho), same konig heliums, same skunk2 front ucas. I went with st suspension coilovers (looking to go a bit stiffer now, esp rear, may check out the skunk2s), st suspension rear sway bar, fastline tall short shifter (HIGHLY recommended). I have the innovative traction bar. Just bought an eBay exhaust. Have a jrsc kit sitting on my shelf.
Anyways, great car, awesome to see some modified ef hatches kicking around and getting love!
+David Schwartz thanks David! Would love to see some vids of your car, if you make some let me know!
I've always wanted to try the Fastline on my track car! Maybe this year I will!
And, please....sell me the JRSC. 😎
I did own same car same color 91 si
B20b high com Ys1 trans I sold to move 3 years ago to move new car never that same again after I sold it I love you car remember of my memories when I did have mine keep it I won’t never find one again keep up that good work bro
Thanks Manny, maybe one day you'll find one again!
4real, tint the back and rear windows. Got a 95 cx I daily and (even tho I did the side windows) it's honestly been one of the nicest improvements I've made to the car. Bakes less in the sun and keeps some privacy
+John Smith I love tint, but this car sits in the garage all the time so it doesn't get damage from the sun/UV thankfully!
Fair, but also now that mine are tinted, whenever I see one without I cringe at all that visibly inside whether it's parked or on the road but that's become my preference lol
+John Smith it's true, I always tint my daily drivers and we get over 300 days or sunlight a year! I like showing off the interior on this car though!
I love this build! Very well done and thanks for posting!
Thank you, and thanks for taking a look!
@@GarageBuiltHondas my pleasure man!... Haven't had a Honda in a lot of years now but I have had a blast building my Subaru Legacy GT into something that gives some real Smiles per gallon ... just love seeing what other people do with their rides!
I'm the same. I love seeing the effort and passion in builds and how it reflects the owners style
Love it man, so clean! Keep up the good work, and thanks for the B&M short through shifter, lovin’ it in my sedan!
Dude, it's a dope shifter huh!?
Garage Built Hondas So sick man, thanks so much.
+Nodnarb95SE you got it buddy!!
So simple it's so nice love the EFs you kill it like all ways I did a D16Z6 swap on my sudan I would love to see one of these videos on your cars
+Tristin Pettit maybe someday I'll get the chance!!
Perfect clean classic build. Love the new volks
+billy bob thanks BB!
Love the simple and clean style. #CLASSIC90'sSTYLE
+Nate Patino all day!!
Absolutely wonderful man! Love it!
+Sean XxX thanks Sean!!
Clean build dude! Looks great! Sounds great! Good job!
Thank you!
Fuck dude that sounds, and looks beautiful.. everything about it just amazing. Hopefully one day I can find a si hatchback.
+Alejandro Hernandez Appreciate hat so much Alejandro!!
Super clean man, love your vids
+Giancarlo Silipo Thanks Giancarlo!!
I love this little guy!
Me too!
An excellent example of an EF Si in ultra rare Tahitian green! 👍🏻 Jon only thing I would change is those hinges on cargo cover. You should spray them flat black to blend in.
I've been wanting to, but I also have an extra cargo cover and was thinking of lifting the material to expose the wood and hide the hinges up the material. I'd use low profile hardware, then glue the material back down over the hinges so they would look nonexistent!
*hide the hinges "under" the material.*
Either you werent speeding or got lucky. That area is plagued with troopers at all times lol.
Wonderful build btw!. The ce28s contrast amazingly with the paint
+MotionWerks I know, I did a warm up lap first to keep an eye out!! 😎
And thanks!!!
Wow. Even though I have this exact car, I'm still jealous. How does that work, eh? hahaha.
Because yours is a rust bucket with rice mods
His actually isn't. It's in similar if not better shape than mine, but just stock. 👍
@@GarageBuiltHondas is a 91 si hatch worth $2500, I'm buying one
Super clean ef bro ! She’s a beauty 😍😍
Thanks so much
John is of the better builders here guys we all could learn alot .its not about ohlins and k24 swaps
Appreciate that!
Hell yeah wish my SI was half as clean as yours
Keep on it, it can get there Wes!!
I got the innovative mount on my 89 crx si, it gives great clearence for the headers but it sits a little lower than the oem front crossmember
this is awesome, this is the shit that actually makes me want to buy a civic
+xTheNameisEthan that's what I like to hear!!
Garage Built Hondas unfortunately most of the civics i see are rusted or riced our or both so i never get to see one that’s well done and it looks really good
+xTheNameisEthan I'm trying! There are some out there still thankfully!
Garage Built Hondas i think when the day comes that i can afford 2 cars I’ll probably get like a 4th or 5th gen Si to daily and turn the Miata into a race car
+xTheNameisEthan that's an excellent plan!
I like your car man, sounds amazing
+Luis Herrera appreciate it Luis!
If you do heavy spirited driving, I would inspect your brake rotors more frequently, I've heard and seen drilled rotors crack prematurely, looks good over all though! If you do replace the resonator with a test/ straight pipe it could possibly make it more raspy and possibly drone at lower RPMs, just puttting that out there.
Thomas Peterson I definitely do! And the resonator elimination will be reversible just in case that happens. It seems to hang a little low so I may just have a muffler shop modify either the header flange or the exhaust itself. We'll have to see!!
I love the build breakdown video, I'm planning on doing that with my fleet of Honda's. I did a story time video of the S2k coming for this week. Your EF hatch is sooo minty though, so jealous.
+Dash-n-Cars Can't wait to see yours also buddy!! I'm going to do another on the sedn in the near future also. Need to give that car some love!
Garage Built Hondas rendering my video now! Hopefully the weather will cooperate this week and I'll have a special video headed your way!
+Dash-n-Cars Sweet!!!
You have good style. I think all I would do is put the original headlight or just the orange corners back in.
+owlattack1971 I don't like the OEM corners, they look too boring for me.
Super clean ef bro
Love the si this thing is perfect
👍
btw i love your car super clean tasteful upgrades excellent sound as well subbed
+Mr Happy thank you!!
Resonators are what make it less raspy and more growly. I love resonators so i much i got two in my ek lol
+TunerBattle nice, not sure what I'll try but hopefully something!
