Sleeper EF Hatch

[Papa_Smurf]

This is my 1990 honda civic DX Hatch . The ZC motor came from my dad's totalled Si that he swapped the ZC in to. He bought a black hatch w/ a b16 so the ZC went in mine.

It' got Neuspeed sport springs, lowered about 2 inches. Camber kit, 14' HX rims w/ Kuhmo tires, Neuspeed front upper strut bar, Performace exhaust, Si front lip.

15% tint on rear windows and 35% on fronts (been ticketed when it was 15% all the way around). Full Si interior, grant steering wheel, integra center console, 4 channel amp for the door speakers.

I want to paint the car a metallic blue, but i'm not sure if i want to drop the money for the cause there are dints in the car that need to be fixed. I'm going to paint the bumpers and side modling black because they are starting to fade. I'm thinking about painting the HX rims black too.

Opinions?

[Papa_Smurf]

OBD1 more like 137-140. It's a sleeper to me .

[cactusEG]

[Papa_Smurf]

i'm going to paint the bumpers and side moldings because they are faded so much

Thanks for the resize....much better on the eyes and you can see it much more clear, lolol. Besides my Civic, that's the only body style that I've ever liked. Later, QD.

sry bout the size guys, i didn't think they were that big, i just took them straight from the cam.

[quickdodge®]

You'd have to set the default size on the camera. Factory size for me is 2080 X 1544. Lolol. Later, QD.

looks great. okay sleeper. but looks freakin great.

[Whiteboy™]

Nice, glad to see another EF sporting blue paint.

BTW: Would you sell/trade your hx rims?

[Papa_Smurf]

yea, i'm not a fan of the light blue. I really want to paint it, but i'm not down for droppin that kind of money.

And about the rims, i've had a few people question about them. PM me and make an offer if you're really interested.

[Hulud]

that must be one HUGE FUCKING CAR

i mean it has 14 FOOT rims on it


oh and about the paint, what are dints?

[Papa_Smurf]

troll mod?

cool.

[.....]

by sleeper you mean its just sleeping right?

[Papa_Smurf]

by sleeper i mean it looks super stock, but it's got a little somethin under the hood. sorry i dont have a b series, i guess we have a bunch of ZC haters here?

140hp is consider even slow for low brand car makers these days.

If you say 200HP sleeper.. may be a little better... But when the new model family sedans are pushing 240 to 300 hp these days... I think pretty soon lawn mowers will have more the 140hp..

No one is hating bro..... just speaking the truth.. I mean, Theres plenty of cars out there daily driven with 200 to 350 hp DAILY (even Higher) and wont look it...

[Papa_Smurf]

yea, but how heavy are thoes cars? and like i said, by sleeper i mean it looks stock. For a lil tiny car, 140 is pretty good.

So, you'd call a EF hatch w/ a 160hp b16 in it slow too?

[bigdare23]

Car looks pretty good to me! Dont worry about what everyone else is saying it can be your sleeper. ZC swaps in EF's are becoming rare since everyone swaps b's and yours a obd1 swap. Install a few more mods and get your car tuned and you can unlock a few more hp. Hold it down for the D-series guys!

if your not turbo charged your slow to them

[slow_hatch]

Car looks good, and clean. It isnt really a sleeper though. Most new family sedans run low 15s stock.

[green91]

Im not hating on EFs by any means, ive got one as well and love it. but zc + ef = 15s.. not a sleeper by any means. but good luck and keep on modding it!

[preferredduck]

nice hatch man put some more love under the hood!!! screwt he outside. you see how shitty my white hatch in my sig. it's about to get a motor swap. then i will work on the body. I WANNA GO FAST!!!

[Papa_Smurf]

green, aint you on thezcr.com?

and the only other thing i know to do to the ZC is turbo it, aint i aint got that kind of cash

[The Green Monster]

[jimbrown]

Before you told, everybody about your swap it would have been a sleeper. Secrets are hard to keep aren't they.
