    Cheeky Double de Clutch at 12:00... I do this on the road rather than just normal rev matching...it's more fun, and the gears go in better (obviously)!

    Lightweight, soft chassis, b18c this car is dangerously fun. And mad understeering.

    Hey Danny.👋 Bangin' soundtrack as always. The B18C engine takes me back to my younger days, a much simpler time, and will always be music to my ears.👌 Those were some gnarly roads with a surprise waiting around almost every bend. Very enjoyable to watch and listen to, especially when you got to wind it out a bit. Please send our gratitude to Pete for sharing a healthy dose of old-school cool.👍 Good Car approved! Thanks again for doing what you do, Dan. The patreon list is growing for good reason. Cheers!

    Were you even able to hit redline? That’s the best engine, I know everyone will say K series is king, but the sounds and engine vibration and VTECH cross over that you feel in the seat and in the steering wheel is just such an experience. Great video.

    I bought my 1980 civic what feels like a million years ago with plans to b16/18 swap it. Last time I mentioned that at a cars and coffee some kids laughed and asked why not k swap. That was the day I became old. K swaps are fun and all but they don't have the personality, the "music" as Danny said, of the old b motors.

  • @benripley7596

    The civic has nostalgia and i do love the J A pan , but i think im bmw thru n thru. I do love to see older cars though cos it means the owner / driver cares about driving. general folk are too quick to just bin things and get new shite.
