We put a $500 engine in our $10,000 Civic

In this HUGE episode we are K-swapping a super clean (and somewhat expensive) EK Honda Civic we got off a granny and dropping in a K24 we got out of a cheap and grotty Honda Accord Euro we got off a mate called Sprongle. Will it transform our grocery getting slow hatchback into an epic performance vehicle? Let's find out!

Huge thanks to:

Love the Honda content Fellas. On this light NA build. Hopefully see more Honda content in the future. Honda enthusiast for life all my life.
My first car, was a rare 1990 Honda moonroof crx. Absolutely love that car!
Many reasons why, I'm a Honda enthusiast is because Honda has done basically everything. Motorsports wise F1 etc. The biggest engine manufacturer, Cubic inches to horsepower, per litre No other JDM manufacturer comes close. Especially naturally aspirated, Honda NSX na1/na2 made the JDM horsepower gentleman's agreement naturally aspirated. S2000 F20C horsepower per liter.

when you brought out Brian from HASport what an amazing surprise that was. Sooo awesome. even Donut Media.
So glad your finally getting onto K series platforms. I wanted MCM to start working on em and finally the day has come.

I've been watching for years and love the music in the videos. It's one big thing that sets you apart from other automotive YouTuber's. I've also purchased all the songs from iTunes. 👍👊✌

I really enjoyed the time in the dyno. You guys showed more of the process and the progress of the pull on the screen rather than just the outcome. Now that I have a garage with enough extra space, I am working to fulfill my dream of taking an EG apart and making it better. If you can do it in a few days with a team and all the create comforts of the extra parts, I am confident I can have mine on the road in a year!

The longer I'm watching I'm feeling more and more like the r word. I envy people that are good at mechanics

I was considering rewatch the 2sexy series all again just last day and now suddenly ı got notification that ı needed. What a beauty this car and work is.

[minnethreat]

:o was not expecting all this :O wow. This is amazing! Frickin Donut? and Brian from HASPORT? :o

[flyinggraysons]

Great build. Awesome people. Love the closing track!

[Nyitemare]

Huge fan of this project and how the video came out. Great watch, loved all the characters and the Civic looks incredible by the end. Job well done boys!

[Sayward]

great build and an enjoyable watch! JDM H22 would give you 220bhp from the get go! and damn do they take some abuse!

[NonovUrbizniz]

My D16Z6 makes 320whp on pump gas and revs to 8200rpm with a Catalytic Converter and full exhaust. They're great little motors if you put some springs/retainers, rods, and pistons in them. Mfactory LSD and it grips up nice too.

[alexdeane]

I love that moment of Marty and Moog in the car in the last few seconds of the film that is golden

[KonamisQuest]

Simply lovely! I knew it would make MOOG all fizzy!

[craigbrown]

I'd like to see an FN2 Type R on the channel. Give the MK8 Civic some love ❤

[UndertakerTx]

Awesome!!! Haven't seen it yet but i've been waiting for some crazy person to build a built k swap Civic front with a Tesla motor rear end.

[estewar]

I came back to re-watch this. Brian's channel, vtec Academy is Live in 20 minutes.
Cant wait to see more of the GTR

[Pistolspete]

That is one clean looking civic. Top work!! Great film

[mikeymikehondalover]

MARTY & MOOG, been a fan of you Dudes since your early days. Great Honda content LOVING IT ❤. I have a 2000 Civic EJ9 with an awesome D14Z2 engine, 90bhp beast hahahaha.

Marty, Moog and ALL HONDA PEEPS. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me source Door Lock Actuators and Door Lock mechanisms that the actuators screw onto (in the door guts), PLEASE HELP PEEPS 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

People don't realize that 225 HP in a light car like this is a real contender in any road course and lots more
