***UPDATES UPDATES UPDATES***14 MARCH 2009***

Just dropped a new motor in. It is a Benson sleeved B18C1 with 84mm CP 11.5:1 pistons. This was courtesy of Laskey Racing. Also had Portflow add more porting to the head. All said and done, the motor puts down 207WHP and 150WTQ on a Dynojet.

***UPDATES UPDATES UPDATES***22 NOVEMBER 2008***

It is a FULLY rebuilt and restored (down to the unibody) 1995 Civic EJ1 coupe. I am the original owner, and for the first 10 years, it was a daily driven EX coupe with some mods and a Jackson Supercharger on the SOHC motor pushing 155 WHP.

From Feb 2005 to Sep 2006, I stripped and rebuilt the car with no sponsors. I showed the car in that form for about a year, then deployed to the middle east from Oct 2007 to Oct 2008. Since I got back I upgraded the car with the Volks, TYC headlights, EP3 Recaros, BYS lip, and other items. It will remain badged as a Civic Type S with a uniquely built B18C1 with LS internals pushing 180WHP (215-220 crank HP) and 131WTQ (160 lb/ft at the crank) tuned with uberdata. The tranny is also unique in that it is a DC2 Type R tranny with an LS 5th gear, LS 4.266 F/D, and Quaife LSD, enabling me to get super low highway RPM. My average hwy economy is 31-34mpg with a best of 35mpg, yet 1st through 4th are still very quick  The interior is very unique with full OEM interior of EP3 Recaro seats with OEM suede and red stitching everywhere else, custom embroidered floormats, Momo accessories, JDM EP3 Momo steering wheel/AP1 airbag combo with functional horn and cruise control, and USDM/JDM hybrid speedo cluster with amber lighting and red lit needles. The Neuspeed coilover suspension is connected to a DC2 5 lug hub and brake conversion with Spoon twin block calipers, Powerslot rotors and Hawk HPS pads. The exterior speaks for itself with many custom but subtle body mods. The I.C.E. consists of Alpine, JL audio, and 1st gen Polk Momo.

This car is a full road car with full amenities to include power steering, air conditioning, and cruise control. It is purely for driving and not for street or track racing. I have never tracked the car, but it can probably do 0-60 in the low 6 second range and 1/4 mile in the low 14 second range. This car is anti-rice and is my vision of a car that could have come off the showroom floor this way. I do have alot of JDM parts, but JDM items were not the main consideration. Aftermarket items were afterthoughts. This car is a tasteful blend of USDM/JDM/EDM/Custom touches. It is fully street and California state ref smog legal.

I have been to a bunch of shows (HIN, Extreme Autofest, DUB, NOPI) in the past few years and managed to get some awards along the way.
