  • Jump in the Speed Academy Time Machine with us as we set the dial to 2001 to modify this "grandma spec" EG8 Honda Civic sedan into our high school dream machine. Sure, it may not be fast by modern standards, but in 2001 a B18C1 swapped EG was the stuff that teenage dreams were made of and this build is going to be keeping it OG with a selection of modifications that pay homage to the golden age of Honda tuning.

    Thanks for bringing up old memories. Seeing the Integra street race reminds me of racing around Richmond BC especially at Garage 5. A tiny little street...it was so sketchy. I had an EF Civic Si with a D16Z6 with Lightspeed header, intake and HKS exhaust, and a NOS 60 shot dry nitrous. So much fun. It did well but eventually turbos became more common and they would pull away in 3rd. Then I ditched the single cam for a B20 VTEC with a small turbo and ran it at 10 psi. That had me competitive again.

    this brought back so many memories - didn't struggle with the rear mount IIRC - i did all my installs with a engine hoist/crane - that part i left attatched when it went in top side. I remember going through 4 different engine combinations/swaps in my 94 hatch back in the day - still miss that car till this day - even though i have had a 350z, mustangs, countless bmw's and other cars. If i ever do start another project it will definitely be a civic from this era.

    Easiest way with the t brackets is to slip it in while the engine is still on the table before you put the engine and trans mounts in.

    lol, no matter how hard you try, it's always easier to put the T bracket in first, before putting the engine in. I've made that mistake, and I know others have. Live and learn! B series and EG/EK civics are the way to go. I know K's make great power, and at this point, the swap cost are about the same. BUT I still say the B16 and B18 are the best options. The sound, the look, it just works right!
