The Ultimate Four Door?

It's easily argued that the most commonly modified import or sport compact over the last decade (or two) is the Honda Civic. But one thing's for sure, the sedan chassis wasn't exactly the most popular. Hatchbacks and coupes swarmed the streets but for whatever reason the sedans just never made it to the spotlight. But things have certainly changed over the years as many of us could argue that it has really become difficult to make yourself stand out from the crowd. Franklin Perez was well aware of that, so when he started his 1994 Honda Civic sedan project he knew he had to step it up. Over the course of two years and a little over $10,000 dollars later, Franklin has this beautiful project as a result to showcase to the world.

"I started this build for myself and did it my way," Franklin told us on his sedan project. "At the end everyone is in shock when they see the four door. We wouldn't say we were shocked, but more like impressed when we first set eyes on Franklin's four door. On the outside of the car, there is such a fine collection of mods we don't even know where to start. The overall style is simple and clean, but genuine parts that keep the car classy. It has been repainted the infamous Electron Blue Pearl from the 99-00 Civic Si's with a layer of Flamenco Black Pearl (also from the same chassis) on the roof. The hood and trunk have been swapped out with carbon fiber components while a ton of OEM JDM Ferio parts are found bumper to bumper. One of the most unique features to the car has to be the bumper pole: "It goes up and down via a switch on the inside console. It does indeed light up when you turn your lights on and it's more of a visual aid to see where your bumper is at so you don't hit anything in front of you." Franklin told us. We digged it. That and the right hand drive conversion.

Did you catch that right? Right hand drive conversion in this sedan? You got it. The interior has also been completely decked out with OEM Civic Ferio parts and light audio upgrades. Savvy car junkies will be quick to catch the 6-speed designation on the Skunk2 shift knob. That clearly only means one thing, K-series under the hood. Franklin went on to tell us that his motor is actually a "K-Frank" consisting of a TSX K24A2 block mated to a RSX K20A2 head. Low end torque with the high end flow of the RSX head makes for a potent combination similar to the B-series' LS/VTEC craze.
Completing the look on the outside is a fine collection of suspension modifications including a set of coilovers from Ksport that helps lower the car on a set of 15x6.5-inch +45 Mugen RnR wheels. Classy blue Blox open ended extended lugs makes for a nice matching finish to the exterior of the car while contrasting the white finish of the Mugen wheels. We are extremely excited to be able to showcase this work of art from Franklin and we hope you all enjoy.
