Alot of people on facebook know that i've moved on from my Bayside Blue R34 GTR V-Spec, to move onto looking at investing in property, but whilst doing that, on the side i've decided to build a daily/track car. The car i have chosen for this is none other than my first manual car, the Civic EG 
So prior to selling the 34, i was looking on gumtree and FB and came across a few that were modified and had a B series in them already and were modified quite abit, my ideal EG was one with a B16B or B18C7, saw one that caught my eye, but come inspection, it didn't really seem like it was worth what the asking price was, i was disappointed, and was advised by Dedy at Top One to build my own instead of buying one already built, so i kept looking but this time i was looking for one that would be a good base to start with such as relatively straight chassis and good interior. So the day i sold my 34, i came home and jumped on gumtree, searched the usual 'Honda civic eg', i went through all the pages and decided to jump back to the first page, to my surprise a new ad had come up for sale, 48 minutes ago, so i clicked into it, it was a white 1994 Civic EG GLI, body looked good in the photos, it had just over 190,000km's on the D15 engine, but i wasn't too worried as i was planning to drop a B-series in it anyway in the future, and it had LOGBOOKS, i was excited, called the number and drove to the owners place to inspect it, i was amazed at what i saw, it was a very clean and very straight EG, i opened the logbooks to find that it had been serviced regularly up until 18x,xxxkm's and then after that it was self serviced by the person who owned the car now,when i opened the bonnet the engine looked like it was in good condition and everything was stock, only thing that the owner changed was the radiator as the stock one was leaking so it got replaced by a full aluminium half size radiator! Naturally there were some minor imperfections like bumper needs to be replaced as there is a crack in it, and rear bar needs a touch up, but overall i was very happy with the car, so i negotiated with the seller and we came to an agreement and i purchased the car without hesitation When i got in the car and started driving away the memories from when i had my first Civic EG which was red and it had a Twin cam D-series engine came back and i had a massive smile on my face, it was good to be back in my favorite Honda hatchback. The car felt so smooth and changing gears was a breeze, it just felt so good to drive. Here are some pics.
