That car kicked my ass! Lol. Hands down the biggest battle I've ever had with a vehicle 😂. This thing just did not want to come to life, thankfully Shawn came in clutch and got us over the finish line!
This thing's really cool man I used to have an 88 all wheel drive wagon that was lifted on 27 inch BFG ATs.... Add the push bar and the center differential is welded up... Here we go places Toyota pickups won't go .. absolutely awesome car. I can only imagine how much fun yours would be... Everybody used to call mine Cletus...😂😂❤
lol wow this guy has no idea what he is talking about lol "we needed a new chasse because of the ECU" hahahahahahahahaahhahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahah
Add some reliable and simple horsepower and tq to it, lsd for the front and back, and maybe some upgraded driveshafts to make it more rugged and itll be even better! Amazing build man! I'm not nit picking or critizing whatsoever, just living a dream build through your badass build! Oh yeah and off-road lights! Maan you did such an awesome and thorough build and i cant wait to see it in acting my brotha! Im subscribed!
Like you i learned One thing over the years. i always when taking from one car is swap everything as much as possible. Mostly its always a wiring or ecu issue that is prob pinned slightly different
I to have a 98 civic 2 door and am interested In doing this exact thing! Just clueless on how to go about it this would be my first ever car project and I want it just like that
Fella, the car is an outrageous build! But you, you can be a spokes person for any TV, show, product showing and your as good as the guy that speaks over the cars at Barrett Jackson and the junk yard rare car coverage shows! You got charisma, timing, voice, posture, positive energy, presence and ECT... If this was voiceover only, we'd still be energized to subscribe! You got a future if you should choose that path... Great video and the Car added an additional positive touch.
4:50 its not an EK. EK's are hatches only, this is an EJ. I own a 2000' Civic EJ6 coupe. The Si version are not EKs either, theyre EM1's. 10:30 got my S1 Built sweater on right now 17:00 hasport and awd crv suspension is THE way!
I know this is not the point of the build, but how's the gas mileage? (Specifically highway if I can get it) Also incredibly sick build I want to do a simpler version on a civic hatch. Just some spacers and slightly bigger snow tires.
@battles.digital I'd love to, but I've got too many other projects going on right now to start a new one. This car is an awesome concept, though. I'd like to see some vendors offer more off-the-shelf parts for builders to explore similar Honda-based off road builds.
Had it out in the woods twice now. It’s close and it definitely rubs, especially the front, but there’s juuuust enough clearance. Will probably smash the firewall more and do some more cutting on the edges, but overall, it’s got decent room to move.
I had a 1992 honda civic I was gonna 1.9 tdi awd swap until I realized it wouldnt work because engine rotated a diffrent way to the 1.9 tdi so basically ruined that plus the car was beat to hell.
It’s ok - I definitely understand. Completely destroyed the first car in the process of building it lol. It got yanked off of the lift as a bare shell with nothing on it, really. 5:10 you can see that cars demise lol
Fenders have been cut and firewall has been thoroughly smashed in. It does rub going at full lock and when compressed a good bit, but is actually usable.
Lol i see so many basic honda mistakes here.. you needa join some honda groups.. hts diskord.. you can run any ecu obd2a obd2b obd1 just need some minor wiring changes at most. Obd1 probably best because tuning.

Dude, for real!!! You knocked this thing out of the park, man. Thank you again for all of your hard work on this thing.

@@SHAGG13thanks! Thats a sweet build!

dude jumper harness is all you needed they are 80 bucks
The story on the taillights is awesome!
Thanks!
Never heard of an offroading civic like that 🤔Super clean too
Thanks man, it’s a fun project!
What a BEAST! 💯 Consider us officially jealous 😊
Thanks!!! ❤
That Civic is probably what would happen if Honda acquire AMC instead of Chrysler. Now imagine AMC and Honda joint forces to create an engine.

Appreciate it! Yeah, I can't wait to put this thing through its paces too!
Love that look. Aeesome. Keep em coming
Thank you! Will do!
Love the car. I think this would be super cool with a 1st gen Fit body. Tiny suv with a hatchback and loads of space.
Like you i learned One thing over the years. i always when taking from one car is swap everything as much as possible. Mostly its always a wiring or ecu issue that is prob pinned slightly different
Kudos for all the shout outs and giving recognition to so many involved.
@@saneauto wouldn’t be here without them!
I love that car ❤❤❤

Wow, thank you for the comment! Much appreciated!
Dude. I love this build . ❤
Glad you enjoy it! Much appreciated.
ive always wanted to do something like this. great job !!!!!!!!!
@@jiggilowjow thank you very much! It’s a total dream come true.
The taillights deserve their own video.
@@saneauto I think they’re pretty neat!
Front tires rub for sure
I mean yeah

@@kindbud it’s an EJ8 - everyone I know calls them “EK Sedans”
It’s an ek everywhere but na. All jdm sedan vins include ek as the 4th and 5th letters. The following number designates the body style and trim.
8:07 man all this time I really thought that was dark green 🤦🏼♂️😂
Lol
I forgot to mention, I watched the entire video expecting to see some clips of the car driving through the Trails 😞
@ sorry man. Soon hopefully will have some fun footage
EDIT: found the bumper on their website. Also, how did you mount it to the front end of the 99-00 chassis?
Oh man!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
What trailing arms is he using is he using the crv or the civic
Brother you have to know about the tow rolla?? Puddind Fairhope would love you're build!
I'll check it out!
It's Puddin's Fab Shop. The Towrolla is hilarious.
I live in cville tn next to ft Campbell unfortunately but there is a silver one of these running around
There’s a few of these around town!
I know this is not the point of the build, but how's the gas mileage? (Specifically highway if I can get it)
Also incredibly sick build I want to do a simpler version on a civic hatch. Just some spacers and slightly bigger snow tires.
Gas mileage is actually kinda close to a CR-V of similar vintage on-road. Probably minus 2mpg on the original average for an AWD RD1 CR-V
Your not the only one that did it already did this 5 years ago
Cool, wasn’t ever claiming to be the first person to do a swap like this. There’s one off parts on this, sure.
Awd and lifted? doubt it.
You want some back pats?
but can you add low range to it?
Outstanding Build Bro.. #HondaHeads #Rock I have a Awd Lifted Honda Crosstour and she ripps.. Take a look at it.. 👍🏿🇺🇸💪🏿
Thanks so much! Lifted Crosstour is super cool!
Post mount needs tightened
A lot needs tightened but good call - will adjust asap!
Race BAJA IN IT
@@realangrythrottle would be pretty fun lol
Damn you bubba!! ok I'll be second
Ayyyyyyy thank you for being second @AgentZ3569
Do some pulls
Coming soon!
Noice
If this were my car, I would seriously consider a boosted K24 for it.
@@FALPhil go build one and give it a shot!

Gonna absolutely destroy those fenders if you actually wheel it
Had it out in the woods twice now. It’s close and it definitely rubs, especially the front, but there’s juuuust enough clearance. Will probably smash the firewall more and do some more cutting on the edges, but overall, it’s got decent room to move.
Those lenses got to go man, those are hideous😆
WRONG!!!
Could just be me, but your motor mount bolt nut looks loose.
Probably is 😂 I’ll check it sooner or later
Clean your headlights. Its the least you can do.
Omg I wanted to watch this video so bad but after 5 different sponsors breaks I'm out.
Wouldn’t be a cool car without them. Sorry, not sorry.
I had a 1992 honda civic I was gonna 1.9 tdi awd swap until I realized it wouldnt work because engine rotated a diffrent way to the 1.9 tdi so basically ruined that plus the car was beat to hell.

You're planning on cutting out them front fenders some aren't you? You're not gonna have much turning radius if you don't.
Fenders have been cut and firewall has been thoroughly smashed in. It does rub going at full lock and when compressed a good bit, but is actually usable.
@battles.digital hell yeah 👍. It just looks on video like it's barely got room 😁
@battles.digital are you going to do a video of you taking it off-road?
Maybe like an off-road weekend adventure???? Would be awesome man 👍😁!
@@twatdidusay304that is the plan - but I’ve got other projects ongoing with cars & house at the moment. Might be a minute
@battles.digital I'm gonna subscribe now so I can see. This was the first video I've seen of yours. Gonna check out your other stuff 👍😁
For the love of all that is holy, please stop saying "chassis" with the last s being audible. It is "chassy" in both English and british speaking.
Gotcha. Thanks for the comment!
First comment
Thank you @bubbawayne
Chassise? 😂
I’m a weirdo, apparently 😂
Lol i see so many basic honda mistakes here.. you needa join some honda groups.. hts diskord.. you can run any ecu obd2a obd2b obd1 just need some minor wiring changes at most. Obd1 probably best because tuning.
There are a lot of ways to build these things!
Why are you saying it like that?
What?
@ chassis
@@purplegravyoh, I just say it weird I guess
very boring video ,sorry man
Seems you’re in the minority here, but sorry you’re disappointed. Can’t please everyone! Maybe I’ll have more exciting footage of this thing soon 😅
doesn’t go off roading in it
Uhh it’s off-road in the video (technically speaking) 😂
21 minutes of sponsors '_'
Yeah pretty much!
It’s nice to have sponsors that support a build like this!
I'm not mad at all, sponsors are how cool stuff gets done!
Who cares, you wouldn’t accept any sponsorships if you were building something?
@CoastalWheels Yeah but why not do all the sponsors before or after the video? So you can say these are all my sponsors and then talk about the car.
Too much talking
What do you want me to do? Stand around and look at the camera?
