I just learned about the Orthia/Partner. Now I want one. Preferably one with 3 pedals.
Awesome video man. I've had a love for civics as a kid, and also really liked a Subaru Legacy I owned. That thing turned into a money pit due to my nativity and lack of mechanical knowledge. I don't see myself resurrecting's that car. Finding out about these really stuck in my mind that I'd love to have one, and I feel I could justify the potential purchase. The parts availability and ease of maintenance make it a pretty realistic car to own that's unique to the states.
Hi! Sorry for the bad English. This is a wonderful video, I couldn't miss it and watched it completely. I have owned Orthia 2000 Type S since 2015. At one time, a lot of these cars were imported into my country. I am glad that there are the same enthusiasts on the other side of the world :) good luck to you!
Thank you for the comment!!!
Absolutely awesome video! Great to see more info in a relatively uncommon Honda
Thank you for the feedback!

Thanks for commenting and subscribing! Glad you like the video.
Thanks for making this awesome video!
Thank you for watching!
@@battles.digital I watched the whole thing live as it aired
Marketplace find brought me here. Found a few of these near me. Found a 97 4wd b20b with 23k miles.
One of these parked in my garage next to my 90k mile 94 Prelude vtec black on black leather. Has the digital gauges Still has the factory tape deck. I love the 90s Era of Honda
Excellent ASMR my friend
Thanks for this awesome video, I'm about to purchase one. Couldn't find a good walk around video.
Thanks for watching! Hope it was in depth enough for you!
@@battles.digital Definitely, would love to see more Orthia content.
Do you know if the Aero trim came with AWD?
@@battles.digital looking some headlamps for this
@@skank936 message @adrn.fr on IG and he should be able to direct you to a place. Try a site like buyee or another JP site that translates Yahoo auctions Japan.
Noticed your plates. Just purchased an Orthia. I’m in Nashville! Orthia meetup soon!?
Dude yes!!! Do you have any socials where I can keep up with you?
@@battles.digital Yeah, bro!

Haven’t posted anything on the Orthia yet, but shoot me a DM if you want to get together!
Yes they did make a manual 4wd version 1.8 and 2.0 litre versions but not very common
Those came along with the face lifted version, which we do not have here in the states yet.
Wish compact 2WD honda or toyota wagons were available in the US.
Can i make a correction, i own two Orthias. It actually sits on a rd1 crv subframe, but many parts are interchangable with ek civic except suspension parts are only interchangeable with the crv. If doing the ek front swap you need to change the radiator mount as well. Thank you for highlighting this great car, heaps of them in New Zealand
Thank you so much for the info!
@@battles.digital I should i make a correction, Front of orthia the same as a ek however the rear is subframe is crv. No worries, my fav cars. Both of them i have are manual one 1.8 and 2.0 litre
Seen someone install EG hatch coils and rear lower control arms, would they fit properly on my 1996 4wd orthia?
@@ronnelgbm7545 yes eg and dc fits perfectly on the orthia
@@Upshifter91 oh okay good, got me a little worried lol. Definitely will be getting EG coils and EG lower control arms for my orthia, need to be lowered along with getting new wheels on
Could you please tag Jon? I have a few questions for him thank youuu
You need to drill out the spot welds and swap over the complete front headlight and rad support for ek front lol
Never been told that, but I believe it. Excellent information.
Yeah I was abt to say I’m doing this swap rn and yeah u do need the radiator support
Are noses between Orthia and Civic VI really fully replaceble? 😧 I would buy Headlights for my Orthia but the price is higher than all this replacable parts from Civic🤕
can you do a ek front end swap ?
Absolutely you can. Just need to trim a couple things in the front end.
Can you help me find a tow hitch that will fit my honda orthia 1996?
It should be the same as a 96-00 Civic. Also, you might could try an RD1 CR-V hitch if that doesn’t fit properly. Either should be very close.
@@battles.digital I have been looking for a replacement window visor (with clips) for my 1996 e-el3 Orthia. I have a part's manual but shows the door assembly without the visor. I have also seen online that the door assembly is available with the visor on it but I don't want to buy a whole door just to replace the visor. is there a part number for just the left door visor/ wind guard? What part's catalog do I need that shows this? Where can I get one sent to the USA?
Thanks for this video! I just bought a orthia and its fucking sweet !
Will use this video forever 🫶🏼
Thanks for watching!!! Enjoy your awesome car!
