Hello Brendon

Is the car for sale ?

I'd be interested to know.

Thanks

If you want good acceleration definately get a 4 speed Series 1 Civic gearbox.

They have a really good 4.93 diff ratio.

You will sure feel the difference.

THe std diff ratio should be 4.25.
The turbo diff ratio is 4.05.

G'day I've been following the posts about the EL/EK motors. I've currently got a Series 1 EL motor and an EG motor at the machinist. Looking at using the long 93mm stroke from the EG in a bored out EL block. Use a modified 8 valve head with the std T2 manifolds, and an aftermarket computer. Unsure o...

The City and Civic driveshafts are BIGGER than those in a Mazda 323 Turbo. And way bigger than those in a Swift GTi.

The CVs are also much bigger.

What format are the *.mov movies ?

I have the original Japanese TV commercial on Tape.
Plus T2 racing footage.

One day I will get it put on a CD in Mpeg format.

Where abouts is it located ?

Try a twin weber manifold from an EG or EL (early version EL) Accord motor (ie 1976-80). The ports match up, but you have to remove/relocate two studs.

Why not use an Accord EL motor.
Put a crank in from an Accord EG motor.
Rebore to +2mm oversize.
Fit a City Turbo inlet & exhaust system.
Fit a larger turbo, and a front mounted intercooler.

You'll have a 1825cc, fuel injected, turbo motor.
It fits into an City engine bay.

Yes, the Series '1' 4 speed "GB" Civic box, and the Series '2' 5 speed 'GN" Civic box will fit onto an ER motor. But you have to change the flywheel and the starter motor. The drive shafts just pop in. No problems there. All have cable operated clutches, so no problem. You can replace...

I may be getting another batch of 'limited slip differentails' made up for the City/Civic. They fit into a Series 1 & 2 Civic Gearbox. You can use the 4 speed or 5 speed boxes. These fit onto ER motors, but you have to chance the flywheel and starter motor for a Civic one. Another good reason  t...

For mechanical work on your City Turbo try : Tim Tim Collingwood Automotive Unit 10, 37 Kremzow Rd Brendale 3205 6305 Tim is up at Rally Qld (Imbil) this weekend. He'll be back at work next Tuesday. He ran a Civic rally car for several years, and also was my co-driver in my Civic rally car. He has w...

I'm interested in doing some 'chip' work. What do you need from me ? I have T1 & T2 computers. I also have a T2 computer that was modified for me by Chip Torque, about 12 years ago. I can't see/feel much difference, but it'd be an interesting comparison anyway. I'd be interested to hear from you...

I've been going through my old parts. I've finally found the T1 fiberglass panels. This includes a big front bumper and L&R side skirts. I've also found the roof mounted (rubber) rear spolier.This will of course fit T1 and T2s. If there is enough interest I can make up fiberglass molds, and then...
