Finally someone that hasn't pulled the B16B and fitted a K20 or B20. The B16B is a mega engine, so much fun.
Lmao my dad had a 91' civic with a k24 fitted. Man dat shit blew.
That’s one sweet EK9, the VTEC sound never gets old. Too bad Honda doesn’t make it as they used to. I think even in Japan the Type R EKs are super hard to find and they aren’t cheap at all. Nice interview as always Capt!
Jun's Mini Garage Thanks! Most manufacturers don’t make them like they used to cough cough Toyota haha
The Honda civic ek9 is a sports car don't fight with me it has everything to make a sports car buckets seats high revving engine fancy guages
Man, jdm 90’s cars really have a different feel to them, they’re great. Awesome vid Capt, great work!
Thanks for watching man!
NoseyMfer Youdon'tknowme! I don’t understand your comment, it isn’t related to what I said
Was nice hanging out!
Yo man what hat where you wearing in this video it’s fire 🔥
90s Honda’s were ahead of its time! Love the Honda content Capt!
They were for sure! Thanks man
Nice to see an EK9,Tell him not to change anything on it ,to keep it as it is...Standard.Lets see a DC5 Type R next.
Honestly I have only seen 2 DC5 Type R's in Okinawa. One did have a full Mugen kit though!
Awesome video man. Honda''s will always have a place in my heart. Pretty crazy that Hondas are so rare there, haha. Here in the states, they're everywhere. And yeah, the prices on these Type-R's are sky rocketing just like the Evo123s too!

I got my 98 jdm dc2 in may, best purchase i ever made
Nice snag!!
I had a d16z6 back in the day. Fun little car. Vtec was a blast...smiles inside and frowns to those in the other lane. Wish I still had it
Honda boys right here :) proudly own a (Honda integra typeR 2006 full mugen bodykit) All the way from New Zealand ❤❤
Awesome man! I'm super jealous. I miss my DC5
Capt Two6 buy it when you get back to America :) I know you miss the vtec so much bro hahaa
Still have it?
Love the CTR, we’ve had a bunch of these local to me in Canada years ago. The price has skyrocketed now. I picked up a b16b over a dozen years ago, finally put it into a 98 hatchback. That’s the closest I’ll come to owning an ek9 CTR
Thank you so much for having a B16 and not K swapping it.
Lots of Honda’s in Canada too but Type R’s were never available here. I love Honda’s & I might just import one from Japan like yours! Thanks Capt two6 for featuring Santi’s beautiful classic ride:)
Thomas Ma thanks for watching man!
U end up importing one?
TYPE R está hermoso y nítido, continúa cuidando el carro así Arnold. Excelente video Capt!!!
Nice and clean, the exhaust not too loud 👌
😍 This is the GOAT to us honda nerds
Hahah!!!
Sweet VTEC sound..we are currently shooting the EK9, and will come up in a few week time. Greeting from Malaysia!
Bro! Nice video and a clean EK9!
✌️✌️✌️gracias bro. Deja que te de una ride cuando visites
I love thiiiiiisss!!!!! Support to you and my friend Arnold ❤ ♥ !!!!
Valeria Calderon He’s the man!
Cool vlog Capt.- really great to see an honest owner enjoying and so knowledgeable about his whip. Any more like this in your archives? Edit them up man. Stay safe, UK out 👍
He knows very little about the whole powertrain...
Yo! Really sick CTR!!!! I can't wait to see this thing running around!
Dude you’ll see him! Only EK9 I see driving around everywhere
You know what I think I saw him yesterday lol
@@godzilla_ina_tux I'm always around
The main reason why these cars are rare and hard-to-find is because importers buy them and cut down the car to bring to the states and sell the parts, wheels, front clip, interior and engines… Is such a shame
Donny P. Oof you see the big scandal that’s been going on?
@@CaptTwo6 which one, jauto?
That ek9 is slick, good pairing with the white evo, thanks capt!
Thanks! You see what I did there parking the Evo close by haha
Kadena was an awesome place to grow up, thanks for the videos! Miss oki.
The head lights in the states and Canada are also always chrome in the reflector shrouds, you can see in the video the headlights have this grayish silvery smoke on the reflector shrouds :) 7:00
Dude you should offer a race everytime you feature someone's car just for fun.
The Iron Shepherd If we had a legit track or something but street racing is a pretty expensive ticket in Japan haha. Most of the cars I’ve featured would clap the Evo though 😂
I always appreciate the original look of the ek
I'm not sure about the Civic R but the Integra R had a seam welded uni-body. Engine swaps, wheels, badges, springs etc can be done to almost any car but seam welding the entire unibody would be some super major work. I think that what makes the R special. It is certainly imho the best part of the Integra Type R.
dude you deserve way more subs
Thanks!
That’s Great ek9 getting rarer and more pricier by the day, if that’s the RX its a 2000 model, available in the states in 2025, the pre facelift model 2022, so not long for those, I’m sure the states will snap them up, great car, Mugen Twin Loop exhaust too. 😎👍🏻
Even in Honda world, the B16B is just a crazy little motor.
These have some of the same panels and interiors as the UK Rover 25.
1:27 The ek9 has a seam welded chassis
Bro I actually appreciate u uno I’m a jdm lover and I was trying to find a yt channel but shit this my first vid of u and I love it man love it keep doin wt u doin bro it was very hard finding u
Thank you for this video. I love Honda. Any possibility on doing a video on an older version EF civic SiR?
My dream car ..... I got a stock 98 ek.... building
How much did you get it for? If you mind me asking
@@svKam 5k...only had 62k miles
Love the ek9. Shame we can't get them in aus. So made my own from a cxi 97 hatch with a jdm dc5 k20a. I love it so much
One of the reason ek9s is rare in japan is because most of them is already imported.
Awesome car, nice to see a clean near stock one. I've got a ek4 in the UK and the annual road tax is £265 🙃
Ek9 owner here from hong kong 😅
Awesome!
odd a 2zz celica seems to have a much more aggressive cam swap-over feel.
Honda is cooler in japan they currently sell the s660 and this cute n one they kept the dc5 integra type r which is based on the Acura rsx and it was even better they even had a fn2 civic type r which was way better than the Euro spec
Keep its oem plus definitely do the suspension but don't cut up the original bumper beautiful car n that Evo in the back wow😍
Bro!! 671GUAM love their civics 🇬🇺🤙🏽🤙🏽
I did see some built Honda's when I was living in Guam. I remember some crazy CRX's
@@CaptTwo6 Hafa Adai! But yup definitely, its still same here car scene wise but gotten a tad more better. Much love to your channel. Keep Them content coming brotha 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Brian Bejado Hafa adai to you too bro! Miss the island life out there. I used to race up in Yigo all the time 🤙🏻
@@CaptTwo6 solid, yup racing still happening but since this covid issue, alittle bit restrictive but car enthusiasts have that never die spirit so the racing continues. And yes definitely no comparison to laid back island stylin 👍🏾
12:40 vtec kicked in yo !!!!!!!
🥴🥴
Much love from guam 🇬🇺
Just keep it clean bro no need to change anything on it. Just keep the maint to it cause damn that's a beauty.
yea, in Australia there r also a lot of hondas
and they argue that cars are not an investment, but a liability
As much as I hate to say it...YOLO haha. Life is too short to drive boring cars
4:20 myvi?😆
yooo we first
I love both car....😭😭😭
Nice civic; its clean👍👍👍👍
im hoping in the future i can have my own r34 or r33. im only 17 rn and aiming to own one of these before im 25. how much do you think the prices will change for those type of vehicles within the next 8 years or so. and how much does it really cost to import a car from japan to the us.
I love these. My brother picked up an ek hatch a few days ago but it's got a bunch of broken trim pieces. Does anyone know where I'd be able to get these pieces online? We're in Cali. Cool video, thanks for showing us
Just gotta search and hope to be first at the Yards, they discontinued the trim pieces for the most part. What trim pieces do you need?
@@7eamGhastI'll have to check out the yards then, thank you! I needed the driver side kicker panel, the center console piece too, right above where cupholders are I'm not even sure what to call that area lol. Its underneath the cigarette lighter. There's a big hole there. And a couple other little bits but those were the ones we were mostly looking for
A wild Grizzly bear you might be better off on eBay, I just recently bought a EJ hatchback. And pretty much all EK EJ parts can swap (with the exception of door panels based on 2 door and 4 door. With respect to year model) parts can be pretty expensive but if you buy from one person who’s parting out at a yard, you can normally message them all the parts you need and they will cut you a deal and ship everything together.
Get the fixed cup holders, not the fold out ones, the fold out ones are cool, but you’ll never actually use them, and they can’t carry heavy and wide. They look cool though, the fixed cup holders are easy to clean and OEM lined with rubber. Also, you might get a high armrest if you don’t already have it, just remember to get the bracket that corresponds to the high armrest.
Super fun and easy to work on, trying to get my hands on a Factory Service Manual, the ones from dealer mechanic garage, lots of info in those also.
@@7eamGhast Cool, thanks so much for the info! I was looking around the net but I kept running into old forum posts with dead links or conflicting info. The armrest is definitely something I'm gonna tell my brother to do, he's a pretty lanky guy so I'm sure he'd like to rest his arm on something
A wild Grizzly bear You’re welcome, it’s good that you are doing something with your brother. That is a very important bond. Hope you guys build something great together, I’ll be building the civic I just got with my sons. Just got one of my sons an old IS300 automatic, and he’s loving the aspect of hunting down JDM Altezza parts from Japan. Cheers.
I thought the ek9s front bumper didn’t come with the vents for the fog light 🤷🏼♂️ I thought the front bumper was like the 96/97 ek solid big opening no vents? I’m pretty sure you said it was aftermarket? Is the front bumper oem?
Or the ek9s are from 97 to 00? If that’s the case are the 99s n 2000s the only ones come with the si front bumper with the fog vents?
Sick Civic EK9!
Hey i Dont know if you will answer but do you know where I can get an imported car from Japan, I remember yourcarbro was doing it for a while but haven’t heard about it from him in a while and me and my brother are trying to get something special

Fuckn dope...... Ty sir
シビックタイプR X（当時、売れ行きが悪くてテコ入れで登場した特装車）
Tinted windows, and titanium headlights to add to the differences ok, anyway please tell the owner not to install foglights on an type R please
Foglights were an option from dealer, so I'm not too concerned about that. The car has the wiring for it preinstalled.
@@Ulrira don't do it please, car looks way better without them , been there done that 👍
What happend to the red back seats unless its not a real type r
EK9s did not come with red back seats.
It’s definitely real...peep the vin plate lol
@@Ulrira probley thinkin of the type r integras
@@radicalfilmz647 type R integras had black rear seats too. Regardless of the colour of the front seats
Man oh man

How much for a Accord Euro R? $
I featured one a while back and I think it was 11k

That's because a Honda in Japan is a grocery getter, not even sorry for saying it!
