📌 Thanks for stopping by! Huge thanks to all of you guys that left hundreds of comments in my community tab in terms of what we should do with the drivetrain in this car. I'm in no rush, but it would be fun to continue building this car. The biohazard Civic has came a long way but there is still a long way to go. In this video I'll be going over everything I have and what I have in store. Comment down below and let me know your thoughts on what you think. You feedback means a lot! 🗣 Join our discord for more: discord.gg/u4jj2BW3R6 🚘 Patreon: www.patreon.com/bendaga 👕 Merch: my-store-d4267d.creator-spring.com/ ✌

Hi what's the music you're using at the beginning of the video ?

@v.s.727 8 месяцев назад

I actually like thr low power build. It just proves that you don't need much power to have fun, and shows that you don't have to spend a fortune to have a fun car.

@bendaga 8 месяцев назад

don't plan to make this crazy fast anytime soon

@v.s.727 8 месяцев назад

I'm so jalous on you, that you can turbo charge your car, because in my country that's highly illegal. I gotta move out asap! But go for it, and one day I'll ba able to turbo charge my own car...

@quantumlab9130 8 месяцев назад

I honestly really like the D series, they're super underrated And as long as you don't mind pulling the D series out and replacing the connecting rods you can easily push the 300hp mark which honestly is a lot in these little cars. But if you don't then you just have to be careful and try to keep it under 200hp ideal somewhere around 160-180 wheel to keep it reliable cause factory connecting rods are really fragile.

@bendaga 8 месяцев назад

its amazing what people can do with the D Series. it's really inspirational

Truhart is TRUly the best bang for your buck, had their coilovers on my 04 TSX and although it wasn’t as comfortable as OEM suspension it handled like a dream around corners, my buddies were always amazed how it took corners especially with it being FWD

@rosa.gigantor 8 месяцев назад

sounds like you're really excited about the turbo so i'd say go for it! personally id rather drive NA even with less power for performance driving but also totally understand that feeling of not wanting to throw out the engine and just wanting to tinker more. also down to watch shop upgrades too. i have to borrow my dad's garage to work on my cars and its a mess LOL

@julianbriceno2376 8 месяцев назад

Hey buddy, I think K swapping the Honda would be a great idea, I know that you can get some good power with lil mods from those engines. It's easy to get to 200-240 HP from just k swapping. It might be the best option

@Sanger_dk 8 месяцев назад

Honestly as much as a k swap would be super cool, Id love to not see this civic become yet another super tuned k swapped, expensive build which are quite common on youtube Of course this is just a single viewer's opinion, but id love to see a more budget, turbo build with no swap Regardless of if you end up k swapping or not, I'll still watch the little civic's progress :)

@bendaga 8 месяцев назад

appreciate the perspective and feedback! I agree, it’s well documented to do those type of builds

@GideonConley 8 месяцев назад

Another great option is putting a y8 cam and vtech lock it and then throw a turbo on it that woupd be an awsome series

@bendaga 8 месяцев назад

Id be into that

@aaronmills9417 7 месяцев назад

Kswap with a supercharger it’ll be around 250 hp not too much power but with that power the civic will need polybush front and rear subframe and other components will need upgrading

@CeroSantos 8 месяцев назад

Build the d series into a monster dude would keep it true to oem plus and would also love seeing the shop get some love too keep it up🔥🔥

@CeroSantos 8 месяцев назад

be the guy in the laptop ‼‼

@PedroAsfora 8 месяцев назад

You should do the Y8 head swap and boost it, so you get 127 base hp and then add the turbo! Thats a lot of content and probably a lot of fun too!

@JJfromPhilly67 8 месяцев назад

Do the turbo kit. So what if you have to wait a bit, the little Honda is working fine, so no rush. Love that car.

@bloodtearssweat1373 Месяц назад

This idea is actually what i plan on doing to my 97 hatch. Only downside to this, is the transmission....from what iv been told.

@S4Tony3.0T 8 месяцев назад

Since the D series is single cammed,it’s still very reliable even when turboed, although it makes less power then a B/K series those will blow up faster since it makes more HP and are dual cams

@RadBrad-ru5qb 8 месяцев назад

Boost it have fun with the d series and when all is said and done start with a k swap.

@bazza._2653 8 месяцев назад

Keep it stock bro! these lil engines are really fun to work on and you can get great results if you properly boost + tune em. personally i think you can have just as much fun with the d series as you would with a k series.

Love the videos, but that Honda is a great DD car and is a rare find. Built out for racing? Nope. As my dad would say, that's "roller blades on a refrigerator" (somebody thought it was a good idea, but just not practical). Best of luck on this and I look forward to you finding another 90's Honda to bring back!

@Ichwiebrot 8 месяцев назад

A N/A K20A would sound awesome

@OjsBronco 8 месяцев назад

Craziest I’d go would be a B18C swap. Still get to keep the N/A aspect, but really nice high revving Vtec aspect.

Id love to see the K swap. I’m new to car builds and car work and I’d love to see your take on it

@sambalzone94 8 месяцев назад

Ngl the idea of exploring the potential of d series is pretty interesting. Provides an alternative to the typical k swap if you are not chasing high 3 digits of horsepower. Iirc myghtycarmods did the same thing on their EK civic earlier this year. Edit: I think a mid 100s hp is good enough for a build like this.

@WilsonsGarage330 8 месяцев назад

Definitely do a shoppe restore video

@slimedev4920 8 месяцев назад

Tubro D series seems cool before the k series.

@syrconcrete6399 8 месяцев назад

Everyone is doing K-swaps, Id build the D series. They make great power once you throw forced induction and some upgraded parts at it

@throttlefilms 8 месяцев назад

keep the D and build it and boost it!! its worth it

@tariqismailhis 8 месяцев назад

Turbo the EK, get a OBD1 chipped ecu, get it tuned, and maybe you can alsodo a D series Vtec head swap onto the stock block, keeping the budget low.

@bendaga 8 месяцев назад

love that. would be fun to put it on the dyno again too!

@dusterpl6093 8 месяцев назад

now this is a tricky one... i thought this civic project was supposed to be kept underpowered and "stock-ish". a fun car on a budget sort of thing. k20 is a great motor, but this car's just too clean for a swap to be honest. and about the D16 turbo, I'm afraid it would put unnecessary stress on this little engine. it runs well, it deserves to live on. but in the end it's you who decides - it's your car after all. just wanted to leave some feedback :)

@MTE-72 8 месяцев назад

I'm more of a purist so I like the idea of keeping it OEM+. But hey ultimately you brought the car back from being a biohazard and made it look absolutely gorgeous. If you're gonna go for the power gains I think it would be pretty cool to do an AWD-swap and then turbo the D series. It's no k-swap/b-swap/h-swap but it'd be nice to have the main mods focus on the suspension and handling like you've been doing rather than gunning for more and more HP.

@Copper6Hawk 8 месяцев назад

Turbo D. New name. Get wild. Super charge it? Get wilder. Super turbocharge it, because fuck you personally lag.

@angeloamaral9141 8 месяцев назад

@bendaga, my opinion on what i'd do: make it a type-r oem+ ish build, b16b swap it

@lemonboy3197 8 месяцев назад

I think you should keep it stock engine. A K-swap and it becomes every other youtube civic that makes loud noises and becomes way to expensive for what a civic should be, not to mention losing reliability. Stock its unique and kinda cute, this lil civic that can offer cheap and reliable thrills without having to go dangerously lawless speeds. Still tho! Happy to see whichever way the build goes, you do great work! A boosted D would be sick! Unique and powerful

@junny1075 8 месяцев назад

Keep it stock, you don’t need turbo or k-swap to have fun with this great car.

@bendaga 8 месяцев назад

the car is really great right now and im sure the suspension mods will take less emphasis on the drivetrain itself, but sometimes there can more to be desired tbh

@angeloamaral9141 8 месяцев назад

or make it type r ish

@KiwamiJoryu 8 месяцев назад

Keep it NA pls. I'd keep it stock preferably, but if you really are going to do a big work then I'd say K-swap.

@kdotkira-2156 8 месяцев назад

Turbos on Hondas with VTEC is kind of boring and pointless IMO. VTEC is already a high rpm boost in power so strapping a turbo on just kind of defeats that. Do a supercharger on the D series! Almost no one supercharges hondas and getting that instant torque from it then VTEC kicking in at high rpm would be so cool!
