YJ8er - '96 honda civic EX

Smile Just a guy and a civic!

Hey everybody!
Early this year I became the proud owner of a EJ8
Its a 1996 ex sedan with about 199k miles, burns no oil and runs solid...most importantly its a 5 speed!
now the less great, its an EX so its got the higher compression head and short gears with a 4.25 final drive.
so its rated at 27 city and 33 highway (i think) and on my last tank I averaged better than 38 so there is potential with proper driving and some aero mods!
so far I've bumped the tire pressure to sidewall 44psi and removed the sideview mirrors and replaced with convex mirrors!
I'm looking forward to learning lots and building my civic into a fuel sipping work car
thanks everyone!
