When you live on your own and pay for your own mortgage/rent, your perspective will change. Bottom line, living with your parents is what’s allowing you to spend all your income on your car.
Great content man keep them coming please! I respect your comments towards the end of this video. It is your car so build it however you want...not for others! It's hard to please everyone however putting your own creativity and uniqueness in how you decide to build your car is PRICELESS....just like art for example. Not all art is painted the same ....👍👍👍
If you want a more accurate temp, have it read the coolant that’s in the block. That’s why it kept going hot then cold. It’s not gonna be accurate that way.
I agree with you. Build a car for your own liking and not what others say you should have. Everyone has their own taste and its always about satisfaction of the owner 👍👍👍
Much respect brother! Do what you love at the end of the day no one else is driving the car but YOU. If people are hating, whining, and complaining that just means you’re doing it right. The only person you need to please is you. “It’s a Civic” as a true Honda enthusiast, I hate that statement. Opinions are like assholes everyone has one, guess what we love Civics and Hondas if you don’t like it get the car you like and work on that. Anyways, keep up the good work man! Do what you love!
Your ek is dope! I just bought my ek hatch last week as a project to keep me busy, it’s that same color I was planning on painting mine! I love all the legit pieces on your car I’m a firm believer of supporting the companies that make these legit parts there’s so much R&D that goes into it! Keep it up dude! Hope to run into you at a meet or show! Subscribed and liked!
love the words man! " take the opportunity to make money". Don't care about what other people think its your built not theirs, people nowadays usually build their cars following whats hype and they usually copy others and what they see on social media and usually lookin down on you if your build is not like theirs...
Tommy at the end of the day it's all about u ur post helps others with their build and for the closed minded people they always have negative things to say. I always watch ur videos and like seeing your next upgrades. Love the engine u have and ur suspension and wheel combination. Always put ur self and ur car first every one else doesn't matter
Wideband ground should always go to the thermostat housing to ensure accuracy, same with the temp sensor. If the wideband isn't set up to send signal to the ECU with a lambda target it's kinda pointless. It's super easy to setup without altering the cars wiring. Take a dead O2 sensor, cut the pigtail off, plug the pigtail to the vehicle harness, splice the white wideband wire to the signal wire on the pigtail, go into closed loop settings in the S300 and enable closed loop with a lambda target. Now you can datalog and use the sensor to tell the PCM to make AFR corrections. You may still have to make a small voltage offset to get it perfect due to resistance created by solder/butt connectors but just compare the gauge reading to what the laptop is showing with the guidance of the help files and you should be fine.
Wasnt trying to be a hater with the lip thing. Just not anyone would do that. Cant say I wouldn't buy expensive stuff for my car too if I could afford it. Keep doing what u do best ;)
Your Civic so awesome ,even though I've only saw 2 of your videos yet but try to ignore bad comments ,I mean your cars look awesome your channel too so don't let the haters bring you down ,I wish there was good channels as your here in Brazil cheers
To heck with what people say, about spending money on your car. I've got an '02 Civic coupe and I hear the same thing. But, I really like the car. It did not cost me much to buy. I enjoy driving it. It has 192,000 miles on it and of the four cars I have, two of which are newer. I drive the Civic. ENJOY!
You got the OG mindset, quality parts, pay what you get for, etc etc. Don't mind these fools that want to buy fake shit, and complete their 'builds' in a week buying cheap shit and then end up posting on Craigslist looking to trade lol.
Love the ek man and the vids they really help me out i just recently subscribed to you have a ek hatch myself plan on doing big things to it keep the vids coming !!!
its a dope build man.. i get a lot of flack from ppl with my civic and when they start paying for mods and tune ups then maybe they can have some input on the direction but till then im doing it my way which is make it look oem outside and have a lot of money in upgrades in the motor
Man your hatch is clean af people are gonna have their own opinion but at the end of the day it’s your car and you can do whatever the fuck you want to it lol
The Vtec Crossover experience, Is always fun. 6500 rpm Plesure, Is even better with individual throttle bodies, Like tomy has. But expensive like $1000 shipped from EBay for OBX itbs. Are they Worth it?
Hey Bro I got a 97 civic sedan and doing 99 clone. Only paid 150 bucks and just gotta do all the work and I'll have a running n driving car. LoL.. kinda taking a long time but learning as I go along. Haha
You should set up the water temp on the head to get a more accurate reading. Also tj hunt lost a sub when he bought the rocket bunny rep kit for his brz. .......
i have a question, you said the wire harness wasn't long enough so you needed to extend it, I'd like to know what kind of wire you used to extend wire green and black, who can I find the wires in the store for example how wide they are or more details of the wires please because I've seen videos where the green wire is extended using white wire instead a green one and I don't understand that part
See another thing I think some people fail to realize is this. I sit here watching your videos like “damn this guy can spend so much money on his car and I can’t” But you bought a used car with your own money. You don’t need to make a car payment. Your insurance is probably low cause of the model of the car. Like I pay 250 a month for my car , then another 300 for Insurance cause I’m so young and it has to be fully covered cause it’s financed , then other bills and boom I’m broke lol , swear when I’m done paying it off all my extra money is gonna be car parts lol
cool video bro I'ma definitely subscribing. I'm new in the car game I want to do a couple of upgrades on my car I just got it only got 25 thousand miles on it I wonder if you could give me some tips what to upgrade to make it go faster ??
Fuck the social media haters Tommy, people that make fun of you and the rest of us for dumping decent money into a Honda don’t get it or understand the passion!! Also it’s no ones business how you afford your parts but thanks for sharing.
I live in SD . I used to drive a 96 Gray Civic 4 door with SiR bumpers. When it got stolen is when i got out of the whole Honda/ Import scene. Im still a car guy at heart just not that into Honda as i was before.
LATOMMYLA I got a bunch of assumptions and stuff when I built my purple car the 1st time. Then when I has it painted, etc. I just used to with a bunch of OT, now I work or of my shop at home doing side jobs.
Man get some rubber grommets for those holes your running those wires through, shits going to cut through the shielding one day and open a whole ton of electrical issues... Especially with how much you say the car vibrates; or at least wrap that area in some tubing.
what mounts do you have and whats the rating? I just picked up Hasport 88a Motor mounts and I know they will be stiff but I am also doing a turbo build
I love the car the build is awesome put the parts on that you like and fuck the rest and still great build I'm a Honda car guy so keep up the great work
Keep doing your thing bro I dropped 10k on my motor last year and people said the same thing to me, fuck them it’s a hobby and it’s fun.
I dropped 10k on mine too haha. We're on the same boat and fuck yeah I enjoy it alot
Live with parents =extra cash 👍🏼 I would do the same
Maytricks no it’s not
Damn right
ay bro let me borrow $3.57 big baller ;)
Foo you make more than me haha
I agree so many people just build their car for the next instagram like, its sad
Yes sir!

If you want a more accurate temp, have it read the coolant that’s in the block. That’s why it kept going hot then cold. It’s not gonna be accurate that way.
Switching it up real soon
LATOMMYLA how do you run it to the block .. can you do a quick video on that ? If not cool keep doing your thing homie.
Hook up the temp gauge to your temp sensor on the head under your distributor. You may have to change the stock sensor though
Twisted_717 Awesome thanks
I agree with you. Build a car for your own liking and not what others say you should have. Everyone has their own taste and its always about satisfaction of the owner 👍👍👍
Your whips are dope ..and all the legit parts is what makes it better
Thank you 👌
I'm on the same page with you. Build it the way you want. You built it right and very clean Props man. Quality parts
Much respect brother! Do what you love at the end of the day no one else is driving the car but YOU. If people are hating, whining, and complaining that just means you’re doing it right. The only person you need to please is you.

Hey great videos. You keep doing you and living your life. I like your attitude of not satisfying everyone else because your not living for them.
Thanks man and you gotta do what you gotta do haha

Thanks for the tip, actually changing the whole setup soon, getting rid of the gauges!

The Vtec Crossover experience, Is always fun. 6500 rpm Plesure, Is even better with individual throttle bodies, Like tomy has. But expensive like $1000 shipped from EBay for OBX itbs. Are they Worth it?
lol all that play and hitting side to side is how my daily d series is
You should fix that haha

Tell you dad, I said what's up and thank you 👌
Hey Bro I got a 97 civic sedan and doing 99 clone. Only paid 150 bucks and just gotta do all the work and I'll have a running n driving car. LoL.. kinda taking a long time but learning as I go along. Haha
Learning is the best part!
Super clean 👌 keep it up
You should set up the water temp on the head to get a more accurate reading.
Also tj hunt lost a sub when he bought the rocket bunny rep kit for his brz.
.......
Haters gonna hate don’t ignore the haters and do your thing that’s a bad ass car and love the vids
Thanks man!
Clean ek can't wait for the j blood to be on :)
Thanks man and me too!
"look at the play that this thing has" yeah no shit bruh. Did you get that shifter out of a Peterbilt? lol, Good vid man.
i have a question, you said the wire harness wasn't long enough so you needed to extend it, I'd like to know what kind of wire you used to extend wire green and black, who can I find the wires in the store for example how wide they are or more details of the wires please because I've seen videos where the green wire is extended using white wire instead a green one and I don't understand that part

Yup! One reason I don't wanna buy a new car and owe monthly payments, just more of a hassle every month and would make it hard to save!
Nice video bro , awesome car 🔥
Thanks!
If you have any recommendation on a harness let me know please.
i think you should put the jblood bumper on, and add the spoon lip to the bottom....
Shit wont work haha
can you do vids of you driving your car a ripping on it more often, would be great to see
Soon
hell yeah cant wait, keep doing our thing im excited to see how you enjoy your hatch on the track
I have better plans than that 😂
Hey I've been so annoyed with my D series harness. It's so shit.
cool video bro I'ma definitely subscribing. I'm new in the car game I want to do a couple of upgrades on my car I just got it only got 25 thousand miles on it I wonder if you could give me some tips what to upgrade to make it go faster ??
Keep doing you bro 👍👍
Always!
Keep up to good work!
Always!
Why did you change radiators? In the install vid it was a black one.. now I see a different rad in this vid
Civic are good cars! Parts are affordable dependable!!!
Radiator looks like a an intercooler at a quick glance
Haha yeah it does
Hey man! Whats the exact color name and code on your hatch? I Really like the color👌🏻
Fuck the social media haters Tommy, people that make fun of you and the rest of us for dumping decent money into a Honda don’t get it or understand the passion!! Also it’s no ones business how you afford your parts but thanks for sharing.
Nice car I love the color !
Thanks!
What size is that adapter for the coolant hose?
what type of camera are you filming with if I may ask
Saucy af nuff said
Thanks
👍 seen the ek hatch at the pop up meet👍
👌👌
I live in SD . I used to drive a 96 Gray Civic 4 door with SiR bumpers. When it got stolen is when i got out of the whole Honda/ Import scene. Im still a car guy at heart just not that into Honda as i was before.
ayyyy stickfigure playing in the background
Lololololololol
That extra longthrow shifter tho 😂 jk love your car man
Hahah and thanks!
At least you could say my shits real. And laugh with their replica shit. Your good man. My uncles parts all original from the shop
Stay woke homie!
I wouldn't worry about explaining how and why you're able to purchase the stuff you do. 50% wanna know cuz they're jealous.
It's no secret so I just had to haha
LATOMMYLA I got a bunch of assumptions and stuff when I built my purple car the 1st time. Then when I has it painted, etc. I just used to with a bunch of OT, now I work or of my shop at home doing side jobs.

what mounts do you have and whats the rating? I just picked up Hasport 88a Motor mounts and I know they will be stiff but I am also doing a turbo build
Innovative mounts with 75A bushings
i would drill a hole in the firewall instead
Will you ever do a pull
I love the car the build is awesome put the parts on that you like and fuck the rest and still great build I'm a Honda car guy so keep up the great work
Thank you and always!
What shifter do you have??
Bro i just watched the tucked rad install then watched this the install vid the rad was black now the rad is polished
you almost became a murderer at 0:13
you got me at 7:13
Is a sohc 1.5 ek hatch even a good platform or should i save 2k more to get the VTI model with the b16a2?
That is personally up to you! I would personally get the b16a2 hatch since swapping it costs more
LATOMMYLA aight cool thanks for replying fast and keep on making great content!
B16
