JDM Parts & Pride: Chico Luna’s Honda Civic

Pride. It’s something we all have. We all make choices, and sometimes those choices are less than favorable. When Chico Luna decided to work a deal to trade his BMW E46 for the Honda Civic you see before you, it was an exciting moment. Shortly after, though, Chico began running into problems. Horrible suspension and a damaged engine left Chico out of a ride and also with some hurt pride. After weighing his options and laying out the project before him Chico decided he would not be detoured, instead he would push forward and build this car into what HE wanted. Notice the caps? That’s right you are looking at Luna’s own personal daily/track car and he wouldn’t have it any other way.

Having a fascination with JDM parts Chico had a great plan laid out for the little EK Civic, starting off with a new heart. The car couldn’t run as is, so the biggest obstacle was tackled first. Knowing that he had a love for the Japanese culture and had plans to go far with this Honda Chico decided to drop a potent B18C1 into the hatch. With track ambitions in mind the B18 was torn down and rebuilt with practically everything imaginable; new cams, individual throttle bodies, new pistons and rods, and anything else for a high compression N/A build. Luna knew having all that go under the hood was one thing, and just sporting the JDM engine didn’t seem like enough. Enter a full Civic Type R front clip. “Getting use to the right hand drive was tough,” Chico explained to us, but the looks he received was worth the re-education of turning on U.S. roads.

With the RHD swap done and the B18C1 now built and ready to terrorize any track or street it set four wheels on Chico knew he had to find a sick color to set it off. The color process was a hard choice, it had to be just right to cover the Civic and all the Type R parts that had been added to help pull off the intended look. The final choice was Long Beach pearl blue, and at the end of the day a better choice could not have been made. Chico knew the car was coming together perfectly and the last step was a legit suspension and a set of wheels. Enter a set of Volk TE37 wheels finished in mag blue, and to accompany them and set of Tein Flex coilovers.

Pride and motivation of those around him kept Chico moving forward with this build. One of the things that really kept Luna motivated was people that said he couldn’t do this, or shouldn’t use that. For Chico it was all he needed to build a daily driven track car. It’s something he could have fun with and will always keep close to him. We asked Chico if he had anyone he’d like to thank; “all my friends and family for supporting me and giving a hand when needed. Mike Ward, Lucas Gonzales, Chris Treblic, John Wolf, Victor Valderas, BJ Farr, and Justin Yonts. My boy Zach Watson, Richard Coakley, Travis Umbarger, Brad at Password JDM and most of all my beloved wife for putting up with me while being in the garage putting long hours.” Canibeat wants to thank Chico Luna for this amazing build!

偶英文很烂，怕翻译错误，误导群众就不好了……
推荐你，在电脑上安装个“有道词典”，或者用谷歌内核的浏览器，自带翻译系统。
