Flip talking about ricers then it cut to my car😂 I was like noooooooo😭
This was unintended haha
Now watch all them Honda prices go up on Donedeal 😆
I still can't get over that it's once a week now
Genuinely one of the best episodes yet.
Cheers Mikey
I get general exciement when i see the notification for a jucebox video
Makes my day
16:26 "just a little 4 cylinder" 🔰 Get up dem shtairs...
We love them in NZ too. Similar car culture by the look of it
Ireland sounds so much like the NZ car scene especially with your back in the day story is exactly like NZ back in the day
As an ex EG Civic owner, I can also attest to wanting another one of these little rascals.
EF, EG or EK doesn't really matter, they're all lovely in their own ways!
Kim Soerensen ef9 sir 2 so good
I know this video has been up for awhile now, but every time I watch it, all I can think about is the same exact experiences we had in the US. Granted we didn't have the luxury of having lots of type-r's running around, but Honda power was everything when we were young in the early 2000's.
Woohooo! Thankyou for highlighting the Honda and the honda culture, it has a massive following but is often tarred pretty badly! I drive a 1995 prelude vtec and so many people just dint get it! I'll enjoy watching this new build along with the 86 :)
Love my EK! This video was so vidicating! Nice to see the civic given some love!
I don't think people appreciate how few clean (ish) examples of these are knocking about. Exceedingly good buy
I was heavy into VWs when I was younger, until I drove my friend's B16 swapped Acura EL (cdn market "fancy" civic). after hitting VTEC bashing corners in that thing I wanted nothing to do with my MK3 golf anymore, I needed a Honda. bought an EG hatch with a B18, had it for three years then "upgraded" to my altezza. that's a fun car itself although it's not the same, but if all goes to plan that civic will be mine again in the next couple months, and it won't be leaving me again
as a german guy who lives in germany where everyone drives vw's i can relate. every single person who ever came behind the wheel of my hondas was extremly suprised by how fucking quick these cars are with these small engine sizes. some just didnt want to belive that the car barely made 160nm but still goes like that. and also the handling as well. a golf feels like a bathtub full of water trying to go around a bend in comparsion. i allways preach that people should try these cars but here in germany most things are vw and other german cars. nice mostly but boring behind the wheel imo.
I own a Charger '16 but I somehow like the fast 4 bangers. They are the true definition of ''Size doesn't really matter'' at a certain extent. Also, in Ireland, you guys don't have those big wide road like in North America.
Keep it up with the content lads!
Awesome civic .. in newzealand I’ve had the ef3 ef9 eg6 eg9 db8 dc2r ek9 da6 all good fun in there own way. Go karts for sure.. enjoy that ek4
Memories of drag racing down the port road on Friday and Saturday night. Miss those days
dude awesome. I'm from Russia and i bought myself an EK civic 2 months ago. Great car, great handling. But most importanly - emotions. Sometimes i get jealous for my friend's cresta's and mark's especially now int the winter science they're RWD but im very happy with my little hatch. Very excited for the new project. Spot on
I had a 1990 civic GL “EF” a couple years back. 1.4 twin carb, more rust than metal. Funnest car I’ve ever owned and regret not keeping it.
More Honda content! Love this history lesson
I really want an Eg hatchback. Dream Civic will always be an Eg hatch SIR. In white or black.
I always get the same story with my older brother also. Me and him bought an all original, grandma owned and well maintained EK Civic DX in the U.S. I detailed the car and paint corrected it and left it stock and the EK4 SIR wheels was the only change. People would come up saying "hey I used to have an EK" or "damn that EK hatch is so clean". Now a days (here in the U.S) an all stock and extremely clean EK hatch is rare because people would abuse it so much that people would have a hard time finding a clean one. Same with the 240 and the integra.
Im 16 and i bought a civic myself last year to build up and its the greatest thing ever im in love with the thing!!
Cool to see some Honda love on the channel. They are definitely still popular in the states. I've had a few EFs (still have one) and my girlfriend has a deep violet pearl DC2 GSR that we've been working on more under quarantine. Something about the B18 exhaust note is definitely iconic.
Beautiful car man, I live in Canada and the closest thing we got to those was the em1 sir with the b16a2, great little cars but they only came in a coupe. I’ve personally got a 2002 sir hatch that I’ve owned for a little over 4 years now. I’m personally really exited for the civic content. Keep up the good work 👍
Honda Life! Trust me there is a major Honda fan base in the US quite a lot of enthusiasts in Texas too.
Really love you guys, thanks for all the amazing videos!
Goddamn, Flip has become low-key one of the funniest dudes in the vlog.
"I was holding it down" at 5:20 got me dying hahahahahha
I own a VTi Aerodeck and I love that thing to bits! It's no EK9 and it's no EG6 but it's my little rocket and it's a 5 door estate aswell so the kids get to enjoy it.
Thanks for this one, have to agree that lot of Honda haters have good reason to hate them from era of disposable, everywhere for cheap money, owned by a lot of idiots at that time, but as you mentioned, the excitement of driving one on the twisted road or trackday, although you are not actually going that fast is just rewarding.
We share so much in common,best luck from Turkey.Ek with a B series is my goal right now,this video gave me a boost to achieve it :) Ty
Class lads,delighted ye got another project and even better it's a Honda.. bought a dc2 3years ago after not having one for 8years..it was time to buy or forget about ever again having one..
Good stuff man, they are charming little cars!
Just got this channel recommended because of the Honda. Subscribed. Off to watch the AE86 build now lol
You will not be able to stop watching all the episodes dude, I binge watched em all! these guy's are fecking legend's! 👍
@@jackfisher9990 Haha Cheers man!
Guys great video i don't know if life would make sense without you. The Honda is cool you Irish guys are lucky in Germany we have basically only civics with 1.4 engines and the aerodecks have 1.8s but Vtec civics are rare and expensive
I had a 1999 4 door ex (us spec SOHC Vtech) for 9 years. Up until I bought my focus hatch last year. I put 170k miles on it which was over 300k miles total when I sold it. I loved that car and I miss it, but I didn't have room for 2.
I've also had an FB RX7, an AE85 (SR5) Corolla and a AE70 Corolla. I do regret selling my corollas, they're hard to find in the eastern US now
I am from America and the JDM stuff is becoming very popular at a rapid rate at the moment and prices are rising. Even though quite a bit of people hate civics in the US there is still a huge Honda crowd. You gotta keep in mind we have a lot bigger of a population too. So it may seem like a lot of people hate civics but there is actually a lot of love for them too. Thought i'd give some insight.
Cheers man, been following some of the Honda scene out there for many years. Some great cars in the US
Miss my ek lots, but have an eu3 now which is the old man with a bad back version and it still revs to 7k. Such a fun drive.
I'm into drifting but my 91" crx is what started it all, the love of Japanese cars and cars in general. I still have it till this day en refuse to ever let it go. Still miss my ef hatch tho.
especially these hondas of that early 90s vintage have some character. i had an ed6 (90' 1.5i 90hp) as a daily driver and it ran like nothing else. i had no issues keeping up with 2.0 golf gti's. and they handle so well too. much more responsive in any aspect then the usual euro hatches from that time. i still have an ek4. but id love to have an ee/ef/ed or an eg (wich i also had 2 of) again.
I'm going to try and pick up a right hand drive Honda Accord Wagon from one of the local importers in the States. All the awesome stuff went to the Japanese market like digital auto climate control, even though all wagons are made in the US. I started watching back at episode 1 and it is still really cool to see the enthusiasm to the cars that got you into it in the first place. Not a huge crowd for Accords but still what got to me. Here is to having a nice Honda one day!!!!
Ahhh the yard in tullow. Fond memories and ringing ears 😁
Love Honda's, miss my Dc2 need another in my life 😪
Video had me in a few tears, my civic was totalled last year, now im rocking a v35 (g35 sedan) gt350 whatever you wanna call em
Middle age(probably old now) woman from my hometown owned that ek4 for years from it been imported for a daily, was completely standard until she sold it on few year back
Heard that, such a gas story where abouts was it
Had a little ej9, absolutely nothing special and dog slow but I had so much fun in that thing. Miss it everyday
Remember, with Civics any problem that seems like its gonna be super complicated, is probably just something simple lmao. Idk how many times I've spent hours trying to figure something out and then just tweak something and the car just starts right up
Loves honda's i recently sold my 1300 honda collection 8 1300 blocks(one had 1500vtec internals😉😉) 3 sets of dual carbs 5 single plug dizzys and also sold a 260bhp+ b20b VTEC 😜😜
Waking up to another Juicebox!!!!! Yes laaaaad!
The 86 is gotten a lot of progress. Neil says middle of building his 89. It means they restored everything and started building.
Funny you talk about Australians and Hondas. I daily a 600hp supercharged v8 ute, yet my track/race toy that I'll probably be buried with is a gen 2 crx. I love that thing.
There's a big love for them down here but you've definitely got to be in the scene to find that love.
Thats great to hear, from our Irish mates down under, Hondas are very under the radar!
Sold my civic just over a month ago (fair enough it was an ep2) and Jesus I miss it, this video has me missing it more again. Thanks for making it cry on the commute in a diesel fucking Corsa the mara boys
very excited for honda content. me and my very good friend have a pair of ek's, canada spec. created our own grip racing program called grippy feet for ppl to enjoy honda/ff/grip fun at our local track. hondas also get a bad rap because they get so trashed and never maintained that it can be easy to give up on them too. once you drive a working one, its real hard to not want to drive them all the time.
I live in the states and own a 2000 civic EX and I love it to death. My plan is to B16b swap it and make it very oem+ and type r like. And I also feel like their is quite a huge liking for jdm cars here, way more than there ever has, just sucks its all gotten so expensive and harder to get.
I just bought a b16a2 powered EG coupe and it's great! 😆 Trying to relive my DC2 days...
I commented on one of your vid about bad language and other things I have watched loads of your content and all I can say is curse all you like you guys are great I have not laughed as much in a long time so keep them coming and thank you
Best video yet very good base to start with genuine ek4 sir geting rare now keep it oem 👌
Ive got a DC2, ive had better/faster/cooler cars but as you say there is something awesome about an old b series Honda. Banging gears, 9,000 rpm and at 38mph is where it’s at!
Had mind at 144mph once thought that was enough ☺ ran outta straight road
there is a dc2 competition for 15 quid on the website - jdcompetitions . ie
worth a look
Currently have an NB Miata as my daily, first car, maybe overpaid, but I'm in love with it. Still far, FAR away from being able to get anything else, but, aside from the Mia being a project I want to work on and learn from, in time, I want an FF for in the winter when it gets bad. I was genuinely looking into Civic hatches from that era...and this sealed the deal. Civics do get a bit of a bad rep over here in the US, but...those that know, know. As you said, they're just fun little hatches that you can rip around in with a huge smile on your face. Same reason I got a Miata. Cannot wait to see where the Civic goes from here and how it turns out. But I think you guys genuinely solidified that I want a Civic. Cheers. ♡
The NB's are a great car! If you can financially afford it, id recommend a cheap little FF nugget
Just about wet myself when you tried to explain the feeling of 200 mph while doing 50 mph in VTEC LOL
Great purchase!
Thank you Neil for all of videos, I love watching you guys. Passion connects and you people are best evidence of that.
I'm planning move from Poland to Ireland and I hope i'll meet you guys someday.
Thanks for that awesome content, Im still here since your first hachi-roku video.
Cheers man, best of luck with the move!
Guys !!!! your market place at that time sounds exactly what New Zealand's was , and been ruffly the same age as you, Honestly love the Honda's (ef8,ef9,da6,eg6,eg9,ek4,ek9,dc2,db8, etc) as we had them all two !! still have my EK4 iv owned for 15 year's ! :p , ... Honestly if you clean the old girl up , Try and find a B18cR , or a B16b you can stroke to 1800cc , (b18cR and b16b are the same engine just ones stroked) As this unbelievably awakens the Ek4/Ek9 , That plus a rear sway bar and they are amazing on road and circuit use !! Plus keeping the SIR s4c gear box and maybe changing the final drive to the EK9/DC2R (s80 type r) one
Cheers for the heads up Scottie! Definitely good things to note for the future
Had '94 and '00 civics, now a fit I got 2 days ago
this video reminds me of the good old days down in tullow you have to love a goooooood vtec 👌👌
The EK9 Type R just got approved for Import to Australia. Watch them prices go through the roof. I saw one for 40K AUD at Auction.
The days of driving to fas in waterford from wexford in 2006 in a dc2, bbbbrmmmm 🤪
First car I learned to do an oil change and how to put a spare tire on was a 91 civic. Got a photo of it and I’m just barely taller than the tire
I really enjoyed the plane passing over 😆
Daily a EK sedan with a 1.6l single jingle no VTEC. I love the thing. Hatches and DC2s are pretty hard to come by here especially not torn up. Don't know where you got the idea that we don't love Hondas here in the USA, they are the most stolen cars here.
All I have to say is double wishbone front suspension, multi-link trailing arm rear independent suspension. Makes for a great platform or in my case a cheap $#!+box to drive the crap out of daily.
Damn... Such nice car that never get old, just take good care on her, she gonna be priceless in future.
Another comment for the juice box boy's
everybody likes civics deep down in the heart,who is hate em just jeleous
Aye, that Corolla was my father's car when I was born! It was a black wagon tho, still have its picture next to my bed! Absolutely great car! Never once broke anything, aside from when a tow truck's hook ripped the rear bumper open.
Love this good luck on the build. I’ve had my eg coupe for 10 years best car! I also have a NB miata for my summer car!
Loving the more frequent uploads! And eager to see what you're going to do with the EK4!
Best Motoring and Hot Version really spark alot of love for these old JDM underdogs!
12:42 Dwayne's Carnival Yellow SiR-II is the reason I've wanted to restore an EG and build an OEM+ car. It's so beautiful 😍
Great video as always juicebox :)
love all cars for what they are. not what they are compared to each other 👍
100%
Honda
Love how you guys have genuine passion and understanding for anything jdm. I’ve got a b series civic and can definitely see the comparison to the 86s
I've got an EK9 lol I love those cars
God this video made me tear up with joy 🥲
Had an mc2 aerodeck vti with a b18c4.... I still miss it even after a v6 turbo and now an RX8.
Damn they were such a cool looking car
Oh hell yeah! Civic time!
very excited! did not see this coming, i thought this was one of the guy's cars but YOU bought it! keep these weeekly videos coming
Maybe a bit to modern but I had an EP3 type R as a daily for 4 years best daily I’ve ever had awesome fun fact and took a good twatting every day and nothing went wrong not to mention the induction note when you hit vtec
Thanks for the nostalgia - I miss my EG and DC2(s). Let us not forget lads taping their hands to the steering wheel like they were Shingo in the gum-tape death match !
Boston 168 - terror acid. Absoutle tune
Just picked up a 2000 Hatch survivor in the states to compliment my S13. Having both is awesome, I'm loving the Honda so far.
1:32 Flip goes fully slav repair style
So stoked! Can't wait to see episodes on the civic.
It has 5 stud conversion done !!
I had a ej8 for a long time, I don't know if you guys see the single cam engines, D16y8 and D16z6. They were really popular in my area and time for being dirt cheap to turbo. Look up D16 Vitara build for some reference on how cheap you can build a forged one. They also got a really bad reputation in the US, but plenty are super fast and done well. The other thing they are known for is being stolen all the time.
There were a good few Dseries engines here but we were spoiled with B series stuff. And sadly, it was the same here back in the day, lots were stolen!
Honda is loved in the U.S.
This is sick looking forward to the build, its nice to see a stock ek4 not chopped to bits.
The drag racing scene back in the day was poppin off, i remember one night on the back access road of leopardstown racecourse there was a group of hondas doing runs like a black dc2 and white ek9 smoking everyone until of all cars a cinquecento sporting came along and decimated all - would loved to have known what was done to it
The good old days
The Australian racing the civic is Jordan Cox, search Jordan Cox Bathurst for some awesome civic vs V8 action :D
Man, what a good driver! Cheers for the heads up
I've a black ek4 in the shed with a b18 that might just have to come out of retirement.. Thanks Flip and Neil😅
You are welcome
Need a vid on that beige ek widebody your sitting in front of thoooo
Its a customer car in Flips garage thats on pause, would be great to see something happen with it in the future
BOOOOOOOOOSTED BOIIIIIIIIIS
