Hello to everyone.

my name is George and I come from Greece. Happy to be in here, looking forward to find some useful infos. I hope forum is still alive I can understand that M's are very old and rare nowadays. Special thanks to Dave for approving my registration!

After 20 years of owning an 99 EK Civic 1.6 Vti, I had an accident, an unlucky event I would say and decided to buy something different. So I bought a CIvic MA9 1.5. I always said that these Civics are unique and different from others! So I'm an old newbie we can say! My new Civic is not in good condition, until now many problems in the interior, some on the engine bay and on the chassis...but I will try to do my best to maintain the car.

Here are some photos

 

Thanks for the hospitality!

Hi George, welcome along. 

 

That's a nice looking MA I don't think I've seen one that colour before.. Really like it.

You've basically got yourself a unicorn right there.

  • Pre-facelift MA
  • Metallic grey color
  • Factory fog lights
  • Factory spoiler without a third brake light in the rear window

 

And that badgeless grille looks pretty sweet! Had a pretty similar idea a while ago, just didn't get around actually doing it yet...

Welcome to the club! :D

Thank you guys. I'll try to make a topic of the work in the car I've made so far and all the work I want to do. 

@SirPaperbag 

The fog lights are not factory ones but some cheep chinese. I found the originals , bought them but I think the front bumber is an aftermarket bumber so I have to cut the whole thing in there to fit the original factory fog lights. Lots of work has to be made generally and have no time. Nevermind whenever I find some free time I will do it. The grille is handmade, I tried to fit the H emblem from my previous EK civic, but it's too big :( Only the small H emblem of the pre-facelift fits. 

By the way the car was imported from Germany, as the user manual of the car is in German :D

Hi George, glad you finally got into the forum😃. Love Greece, been to a lot of the Greek islands many times and spotted a few Civics there!

That's a stunning pre face-lift Civic you have there, looks really sweet!

Enjoy the club and don't forget to download our official Honda service manual. Tons of info in there!

Thank you Dave! The problem is that I cannot find spare parts. I have to check every junkyard. Anyway. I wish I had joined earlier the forum to buy your DD console:D Looks great i'm not so good in sanding and painting but I will try to make one too. If there is any other availiable DD console left I'm very interested !!

You mean the Aerodeck service manual?  I have the 95-97 5d hatch service manual, but broken into many many pieces and has no index. If it is useful for anyone let me know. 👍

Haha, only made the one DD console mate, that was enough hair pulling out for me to get right! Did contemplate doing another, but settled on a single din with motorised 7 inch screen. Works well, even if I did need to make a trim piece for surrounding it as it sits out further to allow the screen hinges to work. Still looks good though.
