Hi i am Chris from Germany.
I am very happy to found this forum here.

I own a imported Civic EE2 2WD (Normally in Germany we only have the 4WD 1.6l Civic)

Here some Pics after the first wash on Car boughtday:

I drove a while but i wanted to get this car loooow,

so i took some lowered springs for a 3 door civic in the front and i put some 1998 civic rear shocks (european model) with lowered 3d springs in the back.

The ride is very hard now.

Here the pics:

Next some nice wheels on it and paint the Bumpers .

One Question.

You also think that your lowered back is much harder then the front?

I thing it jumps over everythings coming up on the street.

Greeets!!!

    You are kidding right? Gee, how self-centered. :twisted:

    England, Australia, New Zealand and Japan - drive on the left.

    North America (that includes the US :P ), South America, Europe, China and parts of Africa - drive on the right.

    Please find below a site which talks about Left vs. Right and answers the age-old question: Which side of the road do they drive on?

    BTW, I just found out that India follows the English example. It figures because India was colonized (aka invaded) by the Brits.

    I think he meant left hand drive vs right hand drive. AKA, which side of the car they steering wheel is on.

    Welcome aboard. Keep up the good work :P

    hey man welcome!! your car is what i like to call mine over here, a Civic Shuttle 1.5 GL :lol:

    about your questions, if you get a set of lowering springs for a 4th gen hatchback it will sit nicely and drive pretty nicely. i have Teins on my wagon and it rides VERY nicely.
  • hooptyrider89hooptyrider89 Band Wagon
    yes i was talkin about the wheel LHD VS RHD not which side of the road ur on
  • wagodizzlewagodizzle Council Member and EDM expert
    if you drive on the left side of the street then your car is going to be RHD, if you drive on the right side of the street then your car will be LHD :roll:

    -cheers

    Oops, my bad. :oops:
  • eldonciv777eldonciv777 Wagonist
    if you drive on the left side of the street then your car is going to be RHD, if you drive on the right side of the street then your car will be LHD

    Is that 100% true? For some reason I was thinking there was a few places that drive in the ditch. It's probably just a subconscious impression after seeing rhd in the states.
  • wagodizzlewagodizzle Council Member and EDM expert
    i was once in the Caymen islands were they drive on the right hand side of the street yet drive BOTH LHD and RHD cars, it was pretty cool 8)

    I don't think so... my cousin has a very cool RHD 5spd Nissan Pathfinder imported from Japan and he drives on the right-hand side of the road, like the rest of North Americans. :twisted:

    I got to drive his truck last summer and, for a left-handed person, it was a very natural thing for me to drive. I was finally able to use my dominant hand to switch gears. BTW, the foot pedals were all the same as a LHD.

    really? Germany only had the 4WD models?
  • ragenasianragenasian Moderator
    Wow way to mess this guys thread up.

    Yes Germany ONLY has 4wd models. No sweet swaps for us that some of you guys are doing.

    Well I guess the new guy here can do the swaps now.
  • hondafreek1981hondafreek1981 Band Wagon
    If i had an engine and a man who makes it i would do it now :-)
  • verderacerverderacer New Wagonist

  • hondafreek1981hondafreek1981 Band Wagon
    The town is

    Dorsten germany

    Why? you want to come?
    i would love to see much of you but i thin it would be too expensive for you.

    but it would be a paradise for you all to see so much european nice old hondas!

    :-)))

    Yes i love my shuttle but the back is much to hard because the shocks are toooo long i have to shorten it i used too long shocks and the spring is too short...

    Greetz
  • nominousnominous familEE
    I'm only in the UK. It'd be about €350 to get there and back and I could stock up on beer on the return journey :lol:
  • mejtemejte Band Wagon
    sooooo clean!
    nice find!

    btw, here in Hungary it also hard to find 2wd 1.5 wagons.
    to tell you the truth it also hard to find ANY wagons :D

    Austria and Germany are full of em, and as you can see you can make really good bargains.
  • ragenasianragenasian Moderator
    I just saw this wagon on German Ebay for sale.
