Hi Oscar,

Google "Aaron Neumann", he races a 1992 Civic with very impressive results up here in Canuckistan.

Thanks Morten but i was actually more interested in the 02-05 civic which is being campaigned successfully in finland etc.
To be honest wouldnt consider any other civic besides those specific years. Some will be upset with me but no need to reinvent the wheel...

Paul;
The status is on hold!
Newborn in the way at the moment.



rally gods would turn in their graves if they ever knew Lada's were now part of EU rallying!!!

06+ civics are a pretty good platform as well, with an even better suspension setup front and rear, not as cheap yet. Shame that the Euro hatchback doesnt sell here.

On a side not I just bought a bunch of goodies from JAS Motorsports

I know that Ozcar has put this project on hold for the moment but...I wanted to point out that the Tabors' RSX has been run with very few problems that I am aware of and it is for sale. PG car, no idea of asking price. May be someone you want to talk to at least.

may be known but, ah



Zap zap my ass...

I would like to gather as much info as possible and if i do come across a deal on a civic i dont wanna pass it up. I will need another daily driver soon when wife gets back to work to haul the baby and his stuff around. I kinda like the civics more and they are not as pricey as the RSX. The ultimate goal is to pay for the car and sell the rally car to fund cage, JVABs and seats for the following season.

It was 2750lbs when I logbooked it, but its about 100lbs lighter now since I got creative and removed some weight over winter. Theres another 150 if I decide to take it out of P class.

Tell me when you're ready and I can get you a salvage EP3 for cheap money, you'll have that thing stage ready for less than 10k.
