Civic generations

Honda Civic, the most known Japanese hatchback of them all. Especially among tuners, easy to tune and extremely light. JDM tuning scene definitely wouldn't be the same without it. Like Mr.Ichishima said: "Hey, Honda Civic is a Japanese national treasure!"

What is your favorite generation of Civic?

EG6 on Mugen rims

Clean EG6 with Backyard special front lip and rear spoiler, which came out in FRP or carbon fiber. Prize is a killer however you look at it (same goes for everything good) , but it's worth every single cent. Add Bride racing seats, Spoon mirrors and white Mugen MF-10 rims and magic is done.

SKR EG6 at Tsukuba

On board video of SKR Honda Civic EG6 running at Tsukuba Circuit. NA monster with b18c (Integra Type R) engine and EK9 camshafts, running a great time of 1:05:XX. Not exactly a super lap like HKS EVO VIII, but for NA hot-hatch that’s impressive! Few lap times of stock cars at Tsukuba by Best motoring:

Mitsubishi Lancer EVO 8 RS 1:04:151
Honda NSX-R 1:06:01
Mugen Civic RR 1:06:68
Honda NSX Type-S 1:06:57
Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R V-spec 1:07:09

F20C in EG6

If you thought Hot-Hatch Civic EG6 can’t drift, you were wrong! F20C engine from Honda S2000 installed in EG6 chassis, along with it’s 6-gear manual transmission. And it’s balanced really good as well! Nice drifting, and respect for the F20 project in EG6!

Mugen RNR on Civic EF9

Civic EF on Mugen RNR rims, another oldschool hot-hatch. It was the first Civic model that had VTEC B series installed. B16 after 20 years still popular among tuners because of it’s potential in tuning and reliability. Japanese really know how to build an engine, although oldschool body shapes and designs might not be popular in mainstream, JDM enthusiasts know it’s classic and they love it:)

Must say I regret they don’t produce cars like this any more. With 150 stock horsepower engine isn’t productive like some monsters, but 900kg lightweight body is something that new cars don’t have any more. Check out the potential of an old EF9 like this: Spoon Sports Civic EF9 video. Enjoy!

Keiichi Tsuchiya the Drift King

Who is Keiichi Tsuchiya aka Drift King?

Born 30.1.1957, he is a professional racing driver known also as a Drift King because of his drifting skills and for making drift popular worldwide. He's also known for touge driving. He retired in 2004, he has a big career behind (Nascar, Le Mans, JGTC...) He is now a host of video magazine Best Motoring, where he tests new JDM cars, and a special magazine of tuned cars in a section called Hot Version.
Tsuchiya isn't like most of other racers which came from rich families with racing background and tradition, he gained his skills in underground street racing scene and made his way to the top.
He drives Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno, known as Hachi-Roku in Japan.
Here are video of young Keiichi Tsuchiya, driving his Hachi-Roku in one of the first ever filmed touge and for this video Keiichi Tsuchiya got his driving license suspended in Japan back then. Enjoy the touge movie
