The Honda Civic Si has been overlooked recently by the tuner community, this could be for many reasons, but mainly because there has been too much choice around that there was simply too much around and the humble Honda Civic became less famous as being a modified motor.
However, here is a Civic from 1999, that looks better now than it did when hits the streets ten years ago.
This Honda is powered by the beautiful B18C5 replacing the original B16A2 which as with many ended up a little worse for wear and needed replacing but was soon up and running, reading for a VTEC tuning.
One of the main features of this machine is in fact the sound system. For this car, its Alpine all the way, with the CVA 1003 mounted into the dash and the all important six CD changer concealed in the clove box. Nevertheless, it does not stop there, he has installed a Questar In Dash DVD player and a Sony Playstation 2 is connected up to the dash though the Alpine sound system.
The is a real car owned and built by a real person, Mouse has put his signature on this vehicle and it looks downright cool with it.
