The Honda Civic (EK9)

The Civic is arguably the first Japanese Domestic Market car that Americans and Australians alike began to heavily modify including a multitude of types of engine swaps and the addition of various performance cars that allow it to perform just like a race car. The Civic is most well known for it’s Type R badge and it’s infamous VTEC system that we love, and some love to hate. This badge not only signifies greatly improved suspension and handling but represents the introduction to 136 Kilowatts of power in the form of a B16B engine derived from Honda’s Integra Type R. This has led the Civic Type R to gain timeless fame and countless years of respect among the Honda-heads. Ultimately it is one of Honda's hero cars of the 90's along with the NSX, Integra and their S2000.  Author: Jarrod Tran References: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Civic_Type_R https://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/initiald/images/9/9a/Honda_Civic_%28EK9%29.jpg/rev

INTRODUCTION: FAVOURITE HERO CARS OF THE LAST 50 YEARS

FAVOURITE HERO CARS OF THE LAST 50 YEARS  Hi everyone welcome to the start of our blog!  We are a group of 4 enthusiasts, based in Sydney Australia, who enjoy talking and living cars. We decided to make this list for you on our  favourite hero cars of the last 50 years.  We decided to do this to highlight and appreciate the engineering marvels of the last 50 years in the car industry. These cars helped shape the car scene and made it what it is today. Our group consists of Joseph, Jarrod and Malindu. We came together with a common interest in cars and we constantly argue over which car is the best!  How about you decide for us? *P.S: Keep updated as we will post about our first hero car  next week!* COMPARISON OF THE R34 v R35 (OLD v NEW) SKYLINE R34 (THEN) SKYLINE R35 (NOW)
