This 1988 Honda Civic EF2 was imported as a road car and converted to a club racer over the last 18 months to a very high standard. The car has since gone on to compete in the Castle Combe Hot Hatch Challenge Series.
Powered by a forged B18C 1800cc Honda Integra DC2 Type R engine, the Civic produces 212bhp and is coupled to a five-speed low-ratio manual gearbox with a limited-slip differential. It weighs just 860kg thanks to a stripped-out interior, which features Cobra bucket seats with TRS harnesses, a Sparco steering wheel, bespoke custom roll cage by Must Weld Motorsport, Plumbed fire extinguisher, oil temp & pressure gauges, Wilwood bias valve, lightweight demister, race battery and Prodrive carbon-fibre mounted racing switchgear controls.
One of only two known Civics of this era racing in the UK, the car is finished in black and red paintwork with racing decals and Team Dynamics Motorsport wheels. It's resprayed black paintwork has a few scratches, scuffs and stone chips, entirely commensurate with racing use. Pictures can be shown without livery upon request.
The engine was rebuilt in May 2021 with new forged internals, while the gearbox was given its low-ratio gear set with any warn parts replaced. The car is also overhauled with a change of fluids after each race. Since rebuild the engine has been run in, mapped on a dyno then carried out two days of testing and one race meeting, so everything is fresh.
This Honda Civic race car would make a solid choice for anyone seeking a competitive yet accessible racer for various series and championships.
