Building a Honda Civic in 40 minutes

- 5 years is a long time to build a car, and we're still going! I wouldn't have expected you to have watched all 5 years worth of content on this car, which is why we've condensed all 5 seasons into 1 episode! This took a VERY long time to edit, so I expect to only see positive comments below. Let us know what you think of this format, and we can make more on some of our other cars!
I've updated the Civic's playlist to include all of the episodes shown in this video if you want to spend a few DAYS binging all of the content!

And you did all of that in 40 minutes. Imagine what you could do with an hour!!! Great work Ben!
Lmao
Ikr insane work
If the Flash was a mechanic 😂😂
cringe
I count it is in 39 minutes and 43 seconds.
I still haven’t recovered from that Laguna seca race 😫 I legit cried when the civic broke right at the end
2 legit, 2 legit 2 quit.
I was heartbroken watching that event in person man
Dead ass, I felt his suffering through my phone
same here man, that video broke my heart. I feel like I would never want to race again 😭
Same here i felt my heart drop when i saw
damn 5 years already!? time flies when you’re having fun!
Can we just talk about the quality of the editing in this video?
Top notch!
What a journey, the Ben’s are killing it!
Right!
Facts! It's the kind of editing that simply would not be possible without the guys behind the scenes.. shout outs to the camera people!!
Great video guys. Thorne out here living the dream
hi muyskerm
yo
I can’t believe I’ve been watching you build it this long. I’m an old school muscle car and classics guy and this is my favorite civic on the internet. Always love watching you drive or work on it.
He changed all possible parts in his civic but never changed his Jeans 😎That's what a real car enthusiast looks like 😉
This is one of the best built series because of the continuous progression, passion, engineering, heart, and results! Thanks Ben for sharing your story!!
?
Every minute of this video I think back to 5 minutes in when Ben said he wanted a “daily he could take to the track” and it slowly turns into “ a barely street legal track beast”
I'm not a car guy, but it's beautiful to see people like you just being able to have a good time doing their hobbies with such passion. It's a beautiful car btw.
A podium finish takes a lot of hard work, dedication, and commitment to achieve. We're so proud of you and your epic build, we love Grant Davidson so much.
That's actually so damn impressive
I wasn’t expecting to get emotional watching this. But watching his journey since the beginning and watching him achieve his goals brought a tear to my eye. Love everyone at G&G!
That bumper you put on when you went to club tr is probably one of my favorite non power mods. Completely changed the look for me.
the fact you spill sweat, tears and blood in making the car, and driving it??????!??? this is a documentary better than anything ive ever seen motorsport related.. goodluck and looking forward to updates and wins!!!!
This car has come a long way, from a automatic grocery getter in a backyard overgrown with weeds, to my buddy Mike where we converted to 5 speed and dropped the type r b16 in he picked up from culpeper va, to your hands where it was made proper. This car started in my driveway and it still amazes me this is that car and how far you have made it. Incredible
Been following this civic build since the beginning! While i love the success of race car life - for me personally i think peak of this car was 2019.. Just really really nice clean road car. Perfection
22:06 this shot right here can be a banger of a wallpaper amazing work man
Losing "Top Gear" felt like losing an old friend I never thought could be replaced. However, you guys have proved me wrong. I've gone back and binged some of your greatest adventures. Thank you for the excellent automotive entertainment.
this is better than everything I saw in every channel. at some point I thought I was watching a movie or something. a well organized and a well put video. 5 years in forty minutes.
You guys made this eminently watchable. From the choice in music, to the really well done narrative, props! This is a fun recap on this car.
That shifter cable issue was hard enough to watch & go through the first time, I felt just as bad this time. This goes to show how far you & the civic have come, congratulations & Cheers to continued successes for the G&G team...
I so remember all of this. Been watching since the first road trip in the evo and sti swapped forester.
I plan on starting my track journey very soon here in socal. I hope to look back on this message and think how far I have come.
hey i’m just curious where exactly do you start when you want to get into track racing in socal?
Been following this build for years and I gotta say one of the best stories of all time.
Just watching this video makes me realize how long I've been consistently watching gears and gasoline. 👌 Can't believe this was way back 2019.
Thay civic is just like watching your kid grow up 😢
i haven't missed a video on this civic since the road trip. TEAM HONDA and K IS KING!
Now thinking about it, 2800 is a bargain. That complete swap alone is now worth 4x what you paid. And, how 5 years flew by.
She’s come such a long way. Just crazy and incredible
This is what movies are made out of! Nice to see Virginia Plates out here doing it, We'll be watching from here in the Arcade and hopefully racing beside you in the coming months!
One of the best civics on the internet straight up, I've followed most of its build life and us the reason I subscribed. I like the way the car advanced, especially on track. Brilliant channel, one of the best. HUGE RESPECT from Capetown South Africa. 👌
Never gets old watching that Civic! Can't wait for 2024 season!!
Hey Ben, would be good to see a discussion on the mods that worked well, what didn't work and what you might do differently next time. It would also be good if you could talk through costs for those of us looking to get into this ourselves!
Great video as usual
These track videos have become some of my favorite content to watch from both of you! Keep up the good work!
My favorite build series because it shows the trajectory of a great project car and the channel. I’m living vicariously through your adventures. Thank you for the inspired work.
A random side note, when you crashed I noticed you told yourself "it's ok" before anything had even happened yet. And it was really nice to see you being kind to yourself in such a stressful moment
Wow what a journey it is! That last race i remembered being so happy for Ben because he was going to take first until the cables popped off. Stressed me out afterwards lol Can't wait to see more of the civic!
I remember hitting the subscribe button because of this car and i'm extatic from how far you've gone.
I never thought I could watch a RUclips video this long. It was just so satisfying to watch. Great production and impressive journey! I wish you good luck with your racing career!
You guys have become my favorite channel. I recently entered the track racing scene and your videos have been some of my biggest encouragement and inspiration to stick to the sport. I wish you guys nothing but success and wins. Keep doing your thing, I’m sure many people like myself look up to y’all. I would hope to meet you guys some day!!!
Ben, you're so inspiring. Great works you've been through. Wish you successful races this season. Well done champ
Ben, this is one of the best videos I've seen. Love the seeing the progress bro. Keep it up❤️
Your guys' video skills are top notch. The car building is so interesting to watch. Crazy to think how much footage you had to go through to get such a beautiful 40 minutes! One of my favorite channels easy
Omg that last race had me pumped until that shift gear malfunctioned. 😭
It was amazing to see how your car (and you) evolved over the timeline. Excellent work and congratulations on the achievements along the way. This video was the highlight of my morning! Thank you for making it!
I absolutely love watching these videos. "Ben" watching for a long time and am amazed with the progress both of you guy have made! You guys inspire me to build my car and I'm hoping that one day I'm in a position to finally hit the track. Hoping to see you guys up in northern Utah one day. Gears and Gasoline forever!
A timely reminder of just how far G&G has come and the amount of work you've always put it. You've enjoyed a lot of success but darn if you didn't earn every bit of it!
As a civic nerd myself, this is probably my favourite video on the internet.
Incredible video. This is what racing and wrench turning is about. Rooting for you this upcoming season
im glad this video is up and the whole honda build series as a whole. My hatch will never be on the level of yours but it sure as hell will be the best daily I can make it.
The Civic is still so legendary after 30 years+.
This project inspired me to get a K24 swap for my Civic aswell. Not on as big of a budget as Ben, and not yet racing, but you have been a huge inspiration. The last clip, when that P1 literally popped away from you always breaks my heart and brings a tear to the eye. Good luck to you, and tall Ben in 2024
Man what an incredible edit! That was the best Civic Hatch build on YT. Congratulations man living your best life love it!
Everything look easy when you know what you doing, great job!
2019??? No way I’ve been watching for that long wtf 😂😂
Im glad I stumbled across yalls channel. Very enjoyable and educational!
Been following the build since day one, the progression with this vehicle is amazing. Can’t wait to see what’s to come.
i love this car. It was always a dream of mine to build the EK with the k-swap. sadly i never did. I always wanted to go to a race track and i never did. now im 33 but seeing YOU build your EK... im happy to have been along for the journey. i saw this car and all the changes it went through and it was always exciting to see it. i love the EK content cause im living vicariously through these videos. Its beautiful to see the potential of the EK. i could only ever dreaming of being a part of something like this, but you made it possible for me to experience this and for this i thank you.
Beautiful statement ❤ well put.
this 40 mins is the best RUclips video I watched at the beginning of 2024❤.
you will win the next championship bro. the car you built so far is the real happiness and victory...
Crushing placement on that Laguna Seca race, Been amazing watching both Bens work on their "Racecraft" and building fun cars along the way. My favorite Channel by far! Bring back 2 episodes a week!
love seeing the growth, both in cars (for both Bens) and in the channel content!
Brilliant journey which I've followed from the start. Good luck from Glasgow, Scotland.
Fantastic video, loved the progress captured over time. Stay after it! 🏁
This was truly inspirational Ben. Keep up the great work. I’m sure you and the civic will get that W this year
This has to be one of the very best RUclips videos I have ever seen, this is main stream documentary level stuff. Footage, voiceover and music choice is all on point. What an epic journey you have been on and I truly can’t wait to see what happens next 👍👍👍👏👏
I don't care they are not sponsored by advance auto. ALL I care is their passion what they outputs their great contents every weekend experiences and they had gone through all theses years. Keep ponding Ben's.
Awesome video. You’ll love looking back at this years down the road.
Everything in this video is SO amazing. The story, the car, the editing, the music, Ben...everything.
Sat down, put this on the TV and watched start to finish. Very enjoyable. Next season is looking good!
Gears and Gasoline is honestly THE BEST CAR RUclips CHANNEL I've ever seen
Knew the whole history of this car as I discovered the channel few weeks before the Miata x Civic roadtrip, and my god what a journey you made with it !
So happy for your progression, and looking forward for where it's going !
Cheers from France!
I do hope you are able to get a class win on your next season of racing. So inspiring! Thank you for sharing your experience 🙏🏻
Ben it is because of people like you that i work so much on my civic, love your work!
Man, I hadn't even seen the Laguna Seca video... That was so gut wrenching. Hopefully you'll come back even stronger this year, you're a small part of the reason I want to fix my old Honda...
Wow, loved this post. What a journey. Amazing content. Loved every second of it. SLO mo cornering & correcting was just sublime....👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Ben painting this cars engine bay was the first video that introduced me to G&G. Seeing how meticulous he was, immediately got me hooked to this channel. I have been following you guys ever since!
I am really glad that I saw the progress of this car ever since this was added to the channel. Such a great video G&G
the value of this video is next level, guys you really put things down to earth, thanks fot this, keep going
Amazing video! You've done what others couldn't! This is amazing to see this progress
i see this process over the years, never tought i started watching you guys 5 years ago . stocked
Its awesome to see you go from working in a cinderblock garage and a hydrualic press next to the couch to where you are now. I dont think you guys have changed other than becoming more "professional" in video editing and making. You're living the dream life of just about every tuner kid in high school.
What an amazing journey. Can't believe that i have watched the journey of the civic alone for 5 years 🥹.. Good luck man ❤
Crazy that ive been able to watch you build this over the past 5 years and even get to drive on track with it!
Very inspiring build and performance!!! Incredible video as well!!!
the goosebump is real!!
While you’re racing at Laguna Seca, and you get hammered by a Civic. EPIC!
Although I watched this civic since it was bought, it’s ridiculous to see how much this car went through and to see Ben’s OCD really put quality work and thoughtful mod to it over and over again.
Incredible journey and proud to say I’ve been here every Saturday since the civic’s conception. Can’t wait to see what’s to come in the future, race wins for sure
Loved every minute of this! you're doing great ben, keep it up!
After following the build since day one, I can confidently say this is the sickest civic on YT. Keep it up boys 🙌🏼
Amazing video, was hooked from beginning to the end. Excited to see what's next for the Civic!
Fantastic 🤩 keep going, Great Work Ben.
I cried as the other two cars passed you at LS. I was sitting in my living room cheering you on. I found G&G when you first took the civic on a trip. And I’ve been following ever since. 2024 podium wins I can see it already!
Hey Ben I have been following your build since the start and I just wanna say from one Honda enthusiast to a another am very proud of you bro am out here in Jamaica and you just make my day every time I watch your videos so keep up the great job on the car and u got my vote you rock .👍
what an awesome video! its been so cool to watch you develop this car! its inspired me to do something similar to my 8th gen.
This is a cinematic masterpiece
I can't believe it's been so long. All of the upgrades feel like they were just made yesterday and the fact that he barely didn't get the first place was very sad for me. I really appreciate you and your civic.
this was very beautifully done.
Great video, great journey, look forward to seeing what's next for the EK!
Best 40 min time spent this year :)
