This is the most extreme Civic EG6 in the world, first look at the Built By Legends Honda Civic, JDM

*Please turn on CC for English subtitles *

The long awaited in depth look of the second Built By Legends restomod project car, the true JDM 1994 Honda Civic SiR II EG6 is here. Displayed in Spoon Sports Type One garage in the 2020 Spoon Collection, JDM and Honda fans alike were excited at the sight of something that has never been done before. A custom side flow exhaust muffler made of titanium that is based on a similar design that was used in the 1993-4 JTCC (Japan Touring Car Championship) Civic Ferio SiR EG9 with a special B18C based 2.0 litre engine giving about 300PS! The purpose of going to this extreme of exhaust routing not serves to increase torque and power, but to achieve something that most road car tuners have not been able to attempt or have the know how to do. By making the manifold to the side, the engineers are able to lower the engine by an impressive 40mm. This makes a significant difference to the centre of gravity, which will have a direct effect on handling characteristics. Making this closer to a true 'racing car' on the road.

BBL"s partners are renowned top of the Japanese tuning industry Spoon Sports and Opera Performance, but in this episode we also reveal the man responsible for crafting the beautiful and intricate titanium exhaust system, which is complete from manifold to tail pipe. This one off system has seen uncountable hours of design, testing, prototype making, fitting to make achieve the high standards that BBL has envisioned for its fully tuned road ready car.

A car that has engine power with out a finely tuned chassis will not be pleasurable to drive or achieve the performance to call it a unique tuning car. For BBL, simply restoring the chassis was not enough. In order to make this the best handling EG generation Civic that fans can admire and be the next level dream, the body had to be strengthened more without the use of race only roll cages. This was achieved by perhaps an industry first of bonding copious amounts of carbon fibre directly to the body in key strategic areas, thereby increasing rigidity to levels that potentially exceed a Type R body.

Join us in this video as explore the technical details and the build that is done by some of the best in the motorsports and tuning industry from Japan. Built By Legends, not by amateurs in a backyard.
