I just have to say, Speed Academy has the best Honda builds on KZfaq. Your taste for Honda builds is just better than the rest.

I currently have 13k saved for a project car, I sold my turbo foxbody 7 years ago and figured I'm at a point now I'd like to build an EG k20 civic, after looking at just the garbage swap kits. Eh, I can build another 9 second mustang for less than 10k. Looks like I'll be going the cheaper route as usual. If the Hondas were affordable I'd build one. Isn't that sad, it's cheaper to build a 9 second mustang than it is to build a stock k20 swapped civic.....holy fuck I thought slow cars were cheap to build. 😂
