Yep, you picked the wrong generation Civic to mod, unfortunately. If you have a few thousand $ to play with you can look into K-series swaps. But at that cost, it's probably better to get a different gen model to work with altogether.

Yep, D16Y5 to be exact. http://www.clubcivic.com/forum/pages/6th-gen-honda-civic-specs/ You can also find the motor code by popping the hood and looking at where the transmission bolts to the engine.

Also, your correct chassis code is EH2 (if you have a USDM car, idk what the JDM chassis is). But I wouldn't want to bother trying to swap an 8th gen motor into a 5th gen. If you want more power than the normal D series motor, look into a B-series motor swap. There's ton of info available on...

It happens! lol. The first month I owned my bike I dropped it in the parking lot at work, snapped off the end of the clutch handle, and put a little scrape on the side of the exhaust. Whoops.

Apparently social media doesn't hate you!

f**k off, you didn't get 6k Instagram followers for being "decent" :lol:

I like that blue thing in the background ;)

:welcome: This could be an issue with the ignition switch, or even main relay (I think). Does the CEL stay on? http://techauto.awardspace.com/ignitionswitch.html

I'm with everyone else here. Scrap it, it was a cheap pickup but not worth the headaches in the end. If the rattle is coming from the back, the baffles inside the muffler might be loose / damaged and not diverting or leaking exhaust gases.

Nope, a radiator won't do a thing for performance. Save your $.

Ehhh. I stared out with the Y7 motor, and later did a "mini-me" swap to a y8 head, which also gave me vtec. I did notice a little bit more power mainly going up inclines. But vtec wasn't very noticeable. I actually wired a light up to my dash to tell me when vtec was engaging, because it wasn't...

You would know if your caliper was sticking because it and the rotor would get very hot after driving.When I had that issue, I could even hear the metal pinging after. Sounded like a radiator cooling down after a spirited drive lol. It was a short 1.5 mile drive to the shop. Ended up warping a...

Weather shouldn't be too bad when you get back.. high 40's low 50's... not too shabby for mid January! I hear you though, I had a 2016 Chevy Cruze for 5 days and it was the worst.

His build thread is pretty much the best thread on this entire site. If you're ever bored, you can probably spend a couple hours / days getting up to speed :lol:

Ah the best kind of plans. Just enjoying the ride! :thumbs up

Wow I would not have guessed. But now that I look at it that way I can definitely see it by the odd shaped rear glass lol. Any plans for this thing?! Solid English there :lol: :P

I saw the first picture and instantly thought it was a minivan :lol: What is it actually? For us noobs. Looks awesome though!

You should always be familiar with car history before purchasing a new vehicle. Get it from the previous owner, CarFax, the dealer, whoever. If the noise disappears when you depress the clutch, it has something do with that or your transmission. If you press lightly on the pedal and the noise...

@ThatSilverEJ8 Does the engine run fine when the motor is cold? What about if you get to higher RPMs? I ask because I had an identical issue to yours. I never had the CEL pop on. The issue ended up being the primary o2 sensor. It was sending signal to the ECU but was malfunctioning in a way to...
