I've seen a few nice Civics from Poland. I really don't like the interior, but that body kit works for me. Going to like to see that B18C4. Is that like our B18C1?
we can say, that C1 is the same engine. C4 have been installed @ 5d MB6 VTi Civic. Now it's quite popular SWAP in Poland. The answer why is the price ;) A really good deal is to buy the RHD CVC in UK with B18C4 engine and take it to Poland.

We will upgrade the C4 to something like 200+ HP and 190+Nm (I hope so ;) ) Classic C4 is sth like 169HP & 170Nm

Very European style. I like it.

Can't say I'm a fan of the blue lighting though. The tan suede, though I really like the upholstery, clashes a bit with the yellow exterior. It might just look better overall if the blue lights weren't on though. Including the upholstery I mean.

Not into the wheels either.

Definitely better than the "economy JDM Style" I see so often here in the US though.

He already mentioned the kit was made three years or so ago. It's similar style to some of the cars recently coming out (Nissan, Mitsubishi, Audi, Volkswagen models) is probably unintentional.

so, still under construction =) Maybe within next 4-5 weeks CVC gonna be able to drive. I still need to install the engine, the custom made exhaust and then the maps set on Hondata S300. So all of this will take time. And in the meantime I need to run in the engine with the new parts.

The new B18C5 pistons set, which arrived last week from USA ;)



And the engine dumper to controll a little bit torque



And the finished suspension & brakes
SWAP of the rear brakes from EK4 with the brake pump from MB6 * SWAP of thr fron brake discs dedicated for ROVER MG ZR160 (282mm 4x100) with the front brake calliper coming form Prelude VTi 96-2001.

All of this upgraded by Goodridge flex, EBC RedStuff Brake pads and EBC TurboGroove Discs for all of the four wheels.

Suspension upgraded by BuddyClub Cambers for the front & rear axle.



The engine pulley & head cleanded by... I have no idea how to call it in eglish... sand-blast cleaning but with using the quartz sand made for glass production with a grade of the broken glass. Anyway it looks like this

The interior isn't really my taste but the outside is surprisingly decent.

I still like the car bro. You'll meet some distaste on this site from the folks who think that anything other than "JDM" is rice.

Personally, I could do without the stickers down the side of the door, and I'm curious, how come the mirrors weren't fully painted? The base appears to be black...

The motor build looks like it is coming along nicely. It's starting to look like what we call in the states a "poor man's typeR". Take a C1, or in your case, C4, and up the compression to R specs. What transmission are you going to use?

the transmission is ready. It's gonna be sth beetween the MB6 transmission and EK4. So we will have four first gears coming from EK4 gearbox (much, much more shorter then MB6) mixed with fifth gear and LSD from MB6.

So anyway I expect 220HP @ light flywheel, Exedy stg one cluth & short gearbox with LSD. I hope it will work for 14, maybe 13 sec @ a quater mile =)

To be honest - for the money I'm investing at that engine I would have the serial TypeR JDM spec engine ;) So the name "TypeR for pour" is miseed ;) Joke of course

The mirors were originaly black and were pained partially. I prefer this kind of painting at the mirrors.

Talking about the stickers. I have an idea for that car which is coming from style called in Poland "Hot Import". Thats why the interior is made of leather with the alcantara, I have installed a not bad quality CarAudio (myself) with the DVD player, the interial and under the car neon's etc. Then the stickers are the part of the style =)

U know, in Poland most of the guys install the USDM cheapest accesories and call their cars "JDM" style. I don't like this and thatąs whz I escape from the "Polish JDM style" ;)

For some reason I like the kit you have on the car. I give you props for having a kit that FITS and flows with the car. Nicely done.
