Default New to Honda

Hey all. Just purchased my first Honda(although I do not take actual delivery till the end of the month). Its an oldy, but a goody! It is a 1984 Civic hatchback. The good part is that it has a c25a V-6 mounted amidships and is rear wheel drive. It was built over five years starting in 1987. It has made a couple of magazine appearances over the years, including SCC and Turbo. Not much of it is Civic anymore, but I figured a Civic forum might still be a good place to get some tech help when needed, and hang out.



The engine is stock with the exception of a set of custom headers and the adaptation of a Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection system. Not a terribly fast car by today's standards but quite a rocketship in the early nineties. I have some possible plans for some more go power, and definately a new set of rims. Handling is superb, 0.94 gs on a 100ft skidpad on early nineties street tires. My guess would be close to one g on modern street tires.
