It’s without a doubt that Civic Sedans don’t exactly rule the market. It’s simply not the easiest thing to modify while keeping it sporty. This one is an extreme exception to the rule, from its radical paint to its clean bodywork; this Civic sedan is just the complete package. Combine that with a built turbocharged motor, and you have one package that is without a doubt like none other out there.

The entire outside was torn down in preparation for the extensive bodywork and paint. Everything from the door moldings, handles to the trunk and antenna were shaved off to achieve that sleek body look. At this point the stock bumpers and side skirts just weren’t cutting it, so a Buddy Club front and rear bumper were sent in and bolted on. A pair of Black Widow side skirts was then molded onto the car along with a JT Autostyle rear spoiler. Painting was next on the list, and after a huge debate for something fresh, the color was decided on tri-stage orange paint with gold and silver flakes.
At this point it was already understood that this car was different than all those out there. To keep things simple yet different, this Civic Sedan retained the stock motor but it received one hell of an overhaul. Having become fully built with JE 8:1 compression pistons and all new headwork components, the motor became force induced with a Garrett T3/T4 turbo. A Spearco front mount intercooler with an NX chiller kit puts drivers in preparation with ears eager to hear the GReddy Type-S blow off valve to fill the air.
No kitted car looks right without a lowered stance. A full coilover set from JIC Magic makes this a reality, as the car sits neatly on a set of custom carbon fiber shaded wheels. In car stereo and electronics are aplenty, with bass being provided from 2 Alpine Type R subwoofers and 2 Alpine V12 amplifiers. Tricolor gauges light up the interior while providing boost, oil pressure and volt data to the pilot. The rest of the interior received a treatment matching the exterior of the car with an orange and black shade thrown into the mix.

Everyone has a desire to be completely different and this Civic is without a doubt one way to do it.

Bomex has become notorious on the stateside for their Engrish motto, but that didn't bother this S13
There's no better way to show off the work you can do but by building one hell of a project
