Binky the Civic Build Thread
Hey all, if this is a thread that doesn’t need to be started feel free to remove.
I’ve recently got a 250,000+km 1997 Civic Si in decent shape which I’m currently working on. Having been a cyclist commuter for more than 3 years, I’m always thinking about aerodynamics (in fact, as I work on this car, my velomobile project is sitting on the back burner). I got my license this September (still only 19) and I’m already disappointed with the design and economy of the cars I’ve tried. I want something sleeker, and more efficient.
I’m here to ask for opinions/ideas about aero mods that won’t compromise my ability to get through the harsh conditions here. Namely, snow. About a foot of it here currently, and I swear it’s just getting taller and taller. The ground clearance of Civic makes it hard enough already to get through, so I can’t imagine how things like an air dam or front scoop would react. Maybe it’ll work? Let me know any experiences/advice/opinions on this.
