My 1991 Civic Shuttle

POW!!!!! Banzai FTMFW!!! Well done ned, just read the write up with TOA blasted all over it !!

I had to big up TOA

Awesome, still yet to see the write up! Good work man

I'm not allowed to upload scans of the feature untill the next issue comes out. But fear not as the photographer sent me some photos. Enjoy.

I think you comfortably owned that shoot ned, car looks sik

like^

I thought it was about time I uploaded the full feature

Even took pics of the text if anybody wishes to read it











Sorry for the crappy pics, took them on my phone

ned, at the last meet you said you may possibly sell it next year but i ask why? you have built this from ground up, i know you must feel like you have done all that can be done but this is one of those cars that you just keep doing things to, do a mad crzy engine bay tuck with a b20 and throw some crzy low offset wheels on it, it can only get better and you are an absolute moron if you dont proceed to build it!!

I WILL BABY POWDER PIMP SLAP YOU IF YOU DO!!!

Nice feature. Phil did the photos for my shoot too. Certainly knows his stuff!

cus I know what your saying but it#s money I no longer have having this house ect. I just can't see myself having the dollar to take it to the next level.

would be such a shame to sell this car, to let some one ruin it and take dogs out to fields in it and load the back up with horse food and hay. Do something like what cubed has done with his, as far out of the box as anyone can get before being stuck in a mental home. I know what yo mean tho, ive been close to selling mine just because i couldnt be bothered with it.

Would be a shame to sell - fair enough not being able to afford to keep it running but if It's taking it to the next level you can't afford i would sit tight as it is because It's cool now. You'll have ideas for a replacement car and you'd be starting from scratch on that!

i hear what your saying about money dude, but if it came down to it..........GT4 or Shuttlebug?
Edwin happens to know a few things and one of those things Edwin knows is, you can always buy another GT4, but the shuttle is genuinely one of a kind.

I think in years to come this shuttle will be worth plenty, Keep it you will regret selling it!

But keep the one you enjoy driving the most

I hardly drive it tbh. Maybe if I get proper coilovers for it maybe i'd enjoy it more

sell the landy and the gt4 its dead money!! i know you said it wouldent be worth selling the gt4 because you wouldent get back how you spent on it but whats the point in keeping it to spend a load more on it to get it back up and running? cut your losses and get rid, if you saying you aint got mone for the shuttle then you dont for the gt4, as for the landy can you honestly see yourself doing anythin in it again?

The Land Rover is going this year, I just need to move it to my mates garage and we are gonna fix it up to sell it on.
I'm not allowed to sell the GT-Four cause Carla loves it too much . Once shes got a proper full time teaching job closer to home it will be back on the road probably.
anyway....
2 little updates, Recently brought some rare JDM goodies for the shuttle, Personal Box and factory fitted mats from a Beagle.





Mats could do with a wash but the personal box is like new and only came in the sedan's and shuttle IIRC.

Personal box looks mint I didnt even know the shuttle was a auto until recently

Solution 1 - man the fark up
Solution 2 - get a new girlfriend/wife

Yeah tbh it would have had a B series in it a long time ago if it wasn't an auto, none of the other 4th gen parts fit so i'd have to find a donor manuel shuttle to do a conversion which are hard to find

Na i say leave the engine swap! Keep it clean and just change wheels when u get bored dude! Your car is pretty much perfect as it is and u already said finances are not the best so a B swap would not help your situation thats my 1p worth.

ned that is a poor excuse.

the new goodies are doog.

Thats a bit sh!t then that the 4th gen parts fit

Id just be on the lookout for a set of diff rims something more dishy (maybe splits) and a proper set of coilovers and your done with it imo.

here is another shuttle which is sitting pretty low as a daily over on CL
