So i thought I would put my MA9 on here for others to see.

When I first got the car a year and a half ago it was a bog standard MA9 with silver 16" tsw venoms. Since owning my civic I've changed the following.

Started of getting the wheels sprayed black as any wheels look good in black right?? 😂. Got a set off coilovers to drop it on its arse. After doing these 2 things to the civic I reliased I caught the civic bug and went mad lol the following mods are.

Got rid of the d15z3 and put in a jdm b16a.

Uprated spark plug leads.

Carbon sparkplug cover.

Skunk 2 oil cap.

Filter for breather on rocker cover.

Custom induction kit.

Yellow powder coated rocker cover with lettering painted black.

B18c6 engine loom to run car.

b18c4 Exhaust manifold into a full 2.25" stainless steel exhaust with 3.5 inch back box.

J racing front strut.

Mb6 front calipers with mg 282 discs and pads to keep the 4x100.

Mb6 arm rest.

Full leather interior.

Mb6 dash loom.

Mb4 rear bumper.

Front bumper painted red.

VTI black front splitter

Finally got rid of the tsw's for white 16" buddy club p1's.

Chipped p28 with launch control

Will update with more as can't remember it all from the top off my head.

Hope you like it 😊

Cheers folks much appreciate the comments. It was my first swap and trying to finding info on this kind of swap was abit difficult so it took abit time to do lol but heyho I got there in end. You would be surprised how quick it is for the b16 in the bigger shell, I could pull on my mates mb6 up to about 100 then he starts pulling on me. I'll get a video of it going for you all to see. UnicyclingTom you the one that said about a build a thread on the Facebook page?. We used an engine lift to get it out, the fork was to dump the engine in the van for the trip to the scrappies 😂😂

That hour was well spent though mate ;)

Cheerz buddy. It's good to get it out there with the other mb's on the forum. I never see any mb's or mc's around my area so i thought it was about time I started to share it on the forum
