Wow! What's crazy is, I just started following your channel only a week ago. So I've been watching old videos of yours that are NEW to me and following your build.
With that said, I was watching a video of yours a few days ago and I actually said out loud to myself.. "He needs to park that thing in a garage or it's gonna get stolen
before he can ever finish the build!" Then I get home today and this video pops up in my feed and I'm seeing it for the first time that my hunch was 100% spot on!
These cars get stolen wayyyyyy too fast to be leaving them outside. Especially at night and away from any potential witnesses. I haven't watched any videos of
yours that are NEWER than this one, so I pray that they found it and you got it back? Guess I'll find out soon enough. Love your channel! I really hope if you didn't
get this EF back, that you find another one! I was learning so much watching your channel! I own a 1990 Honda Civic Si EF Hatch and I'm trying to work up the balls
to start working on it myself! You inspire me!
Hey many thanks to you for being a loyal supporter of the channel and the build! Definitely hit that notification bell to make sure you see what’s coming up next. I’ve definitely had a lot of Hondas in my day. Fortunately none of them have been stolen. I’ve had my wheels stolen before. I should have know better but you live and you learn I suppose. Definitely click on the channel and check out some other videos. I do hope you decide to stick around and I hope you decide to get out there and start wrenching on your hatch!
Bro! This is heartbreaking! Just stumbled across your channel today as I wanted to relive my start into the Honda game (mt first Honda was a EF Sedan with a B20Z swap, management etc), and damn, I was having so much fun and learnt quite a bit watching your videos, especially the bits regarding retaining the Power Steering, AC, and even going full B series (I was running a modified CRX box).
People truly have no heart, and no shame bro. If you ever do decide to do another EF Sedan, holla. In South Africa we got a model which was named the DOHC (purely because it was running a dohc motor haha), which came with a slightly different trim than the rest of the world got. I will send you parts, if need be. #SaveTheEF
It does suck man. People just can’t leave other people’s stuff alone. Thanks so much for watching and supporting the channel! B20 in the sedan is very cool. I am happy to get back into Honda’s. It’s been a long time since I’ve messed with them.
I hope you decide to stick around. There will be another Honda at some point. I am working on the Lexus as of now.
Dam I keep my ecu in the house for this reason for my gsr swapped eg 4dr and my em1 is garaged. but now I'm definitely going to put a kill switch on both cars.
Most definitely. Unfortunately this car is long gone. Been looking for another. Hope to find one soon.
No way… you’re handling it really well.
I hope they recover it and it’s good news. People really can suck, and they’ll get their karma.
Yea man, I was shocked when I came home to see my car was not there. Absolutely shocked! It just sucks because I want it back so that I can continue working on it.
I really hope it’s found.
I am sorry man.
Thanks man. It does suck. People just can’t leave other people’s stuff alone. I hope you do stick around. I have other cars to work on and I will find another Honda to work on.
This totally blows. I'm sorry this happened to you. I was looking forward to seeing the final results. I came across your channel because I'm working on completing my son's '91 EF hatch B18 swap in his memory and was hoping for a A to Z tutorial. I hope the police will be able to find your car. Maybe next time put in a hidden kill switch. I'll still stay subscribed though and look forward to more content.
Thanks for watching and supporting the channel! It does suck that thieves had to ruin the progress. Also I appreciate you taking your time to watch the videos. Feel free to ask any questions you have. The car hasn’t been found yet but as I mention in the video, I am trying to find a Honda to work on.
How far are you in your swap?
@@Knownworldwide The motor is in and sort of drivable, but the engine is missing on a cylinder or two. I'll probably start working on figuring that out once it gets warmer. Late March or early April. My son had also bought a VTEC head that I will eventually install as well, but not until I get the car running good first.
@@brianbrown543 do you have a check engine light on? Did you do the DPFI to MPFI wiring or is the hatch a SI?
@@Knownworldwide Yes, the check engine light is on. I don't know about the DPFI to MPFI wiring. I'm not good at electrical stuff so I had someone, who was supposed to know what their doing, wire it for me. I guess I'm about to greatly increase my knowledge of B-swap wiring harnesses if I want it done right..
@@brianbrown543 If the hatch isn’t a Si, then you definitely have to convert the car to MPFI wiring. It’s just about as easy I as explain it in the last video I posted up. If you are able to navigate to my other channel, there you can find an email to contact me so that I can try and help you out.
Aw shoot man. :( I'm really sorry this happened to you bro. I hope things work out for you in the long run.
Thanks bro. Still on the hunt for another Honda. I do hope that you stick around for the other cars I’m working on now and that I plan on working on. There will be another Honda on this channel at some point.
@@Knownworldwide Definitely will man. I like your style man. I’ll catch up on your other vids soon. 🙂👍🏽
Dang that sucks, I'm in the middle of swapping my EF sedan into a B-series right now, i was looking forward your ef build. Thats just unfortunate.
Thanks for the support! It really means a lot to me. It does suck! I will definitely check out any videos you put up and please feel free to ask any questions you may have. It’s not over for me, I have other cars to reveal and I am definitely looking out for another Honda to continue building!
Sorry bro. That sucks. This is a big reason why I haven't pulled the trigger yet on getting an older Honda. They are notorious for being easily stolen.
Very true. I’ve owned them in the past. Fortunately nothing ever happened then. I will definitely be looking into taking “security” measures next time around. I really hope it’s found.
Thanks very much for watching and your support.
Feels weird putting a thumbs up on this video because of what happened… sorry bro.
Yea I get it. It does suck man. I’m really hoping it shows up. If not, well, hopefully I can find something else.
Damn freaking thief’s
Yea it’s terrible bro
