mustang guy gets his 1st import.

[Anti-Ricer]

Hi everyone I'm Justin from Lenoir city Tn .I just got my 1st import which I never thought I would ever own.im always owned mustang so this is all new to me.anyways I traded my 2000 mustang GT that had a spun bearing for a 95 Honda civic 5apr.it has a jdm tow hook which I don't know why Its these .has a short throw ,CAI, ebiach coils and struts. and cold air and great gas mileage lol

Car has potential. Research and see what you like. Then go from there. Coming from a ford to a honda isn't easy power wise. But if you have the money you can build a car just as fast.

Good job converting from the dark side!

As 203CT said, the Civic will leave a lot to be desired in the way of power, but if you WANT to make power, there are a ton of options (motor swaps, boost etc.). Welcome, and good luck!

They can get pretty quick thou with a bit of work they can get pretty impressive. For a long time I hated Hondas due to them being common and kids making gay little ricers. But i beat a mustang and a cobalt with mine and I really didnt think it had it in it. Car looks good congrats

Yea man you can put a bit of $ into your civic and see a big difference and it will put a smile on your face i have a 91 hatch with just a sstock b16a and its pretty impressive for what it is. Do you plan on building on the motor you have now or swapping

I plan on swapping one of the b motors in that's dohc .some friends said I'd need the wiring harness ,ecm,new trans to make it work .when it comes to.imports I'm clueless .I swore I'd never own one abs what do you know.

Yeah just search online, these swaps have been done a million times so all the info you need is there, not to mention the abundance of both used and aftermarket parts make Honda fun and easy to get parts for. Have fun with em, I've yet to race and GT's or Cobra's but I've beat v6 stangs and 350z's before, and that's with keeping my car smog legal (California sucks when it comes to modding cars) If you know how much power you want and have some cash to spend you can get there!

if you know math, simply pay attention to power to weight ratios instead of saying this or that does or doesn't have power.
your car does not have a cold air intake, that is a short ram intake. There is a difference.

you don't need a different wiring harness either, you can use what you have now and may possibly only need a obd conversion harness.
