Power and torque is very nice, but the sound of an N/A B series cam change-over & screaming over 8,000 is just beautiful, and lightness is king on a twisty road. Chef's kiss !

[@afryhover]

We are all "winners" for this one. Especially us 40-something-year-olds (I'm 47) that had these cars back in the day. I had a black 91' Civic Si hatchback, a black 90' integra hatchback, a maroon 87' Civic Si hatchback, and a 81" accord hatchback was my first car. All these cars were stick shift of course.

[@darksidegarage910]

I just turned 40 and I have to say, this build series was made for me. In my glory years feelings.

[@kev7383]

87 si and 89 dx with mpfi swap (5hp) 😂

[@leechavarie4675]

I had K series 93 Civic Si , 92 Civic Si with an amazing B16B .Should have kept both of them .( I am 60 ) . I just bought a V8 Miata and it is nuts . Not selling this one .

[@forty-glocc]

i'm 37 i had a milano red '99 Civic SI EM1 in about '06 but unfortunately it wasn't long lived. I got rear ended right after i put a few mods on n it was totaled out with 27k on the ODM. I wish i could get my hands on a nice "affordable" EG

[@1981_Reacts]

Im 42 and rolling in a 2018 Civic Si 6 -speed :)

[@Spec_V]

That EF just nails that golden era Honda to the T.

[@EddyEP2]

For me, the EF is the winner. It’s the better looking, and definately better sounding car. But let’s be honest, both cars are great, this build was such a treat! Thanks, Speed Academy🙏🏻

Older enthiast here (55). Loved watching these two builds. I swapped a B16A (SiR) into my EF 15 yrs ago and still have it. That engine is magical. I owned an EG before that, and still miss that car. This video is spot-on about the nuances between the two, re ergonomics, cornering feel, etc. I love them both. Great work!

[@jpwsmc]

The style and lightness of the EF will forever hold a special place in my heart. AutoXed and tracked one for many years.

[@cocx88]

Back in the 2000s, I had an EG, and my wife had an EF, that makes this series sweeter for me.

[@ZackNakazora1]

Man that turbo EG is hot. But which am I putting in my garage? Vtec EF! It just has this aura around it and it's cool! The Egg will go on no doubt.

[@ZachD]

both of these builds are so proper. thank you so much PT and DP for brining us this series. the attention to detail in all phases was very apparent. I hope the YT algorithm gives you the rewards you deserve.

[@Busydadgarage717]

If I could give you 2 thumbs up I would. The EG got me, and I have only ever owned EF'S. Great builds!

Saturday morning Car-toons. Love the track action.

[@cyrusortiz-luis291]

I miss my EG. I had one w/ a B16A swap. Was so fun revving to 8000. Maybe I’ll get back into one.

[@Driftmonkey]

I'm just sorting the rust out on mine at the moment. The cowl panels are spot welded together in bare steel, sealed, then painted/dipped. The sealant holds moisture and eventually gets to the bare steel inbetween the spot welds. I've checked 7 civics so far and they've all had rust in the same spot, whether it be EJ1 EG4 EG6 EG8 EG9.. Just a heads up if you do want to get another.

[@pr0craztinazn]

I know you guys say the track videos don’t get the views, but at the end of the week when there’s a Speed Academy track video that’s new, it jumps to the top of the heap. I bought my second set of new Continental Tires in part because of your channel FYI.

[@gabrielash9433]

I've missed these kinds of videos so much! This is what makes Speed Academy special. Love it! (EG all the way for me)

[@mostlyuselessgarage]

LOVE this track battle film! You guys have built 2 legendary 80s/90s era Hondas and proven them straight-up on track. Altho these types of films don't get as many views thank you for sticking to your built for street and track principles! Great driving guys

[@Thacardoctor]

I grew up in a 1991 civic si hatchback, that’s the car that started everything for me. EF ❤!

[@danlohan4537]

👏 Applause for taking them to the track and showing they are functional builds and not just ornaments.

[@jjolly727]

Watching the tach needle in the EF reach for the steering wheel hub at the top end of each gear is gold. NA B is an absolute symphony!

[@dumbestoyster]

That n/a ripper is just too good

[@tekniq511]

Awesome video guys, thank you!! I love how you implimented the "touge' chase/follow format and also swap cars and drivers at the end - which allowed the other driver to share their input and feedback. Love that guys! This is why you guys are legit "Speed Academy" (throwing back to the "a$$2000" to "bada$$2000" content days). Thanks again guys - love ya'll!

[@tylerworthington9090]

That ef interior brings back so many memories for me. I loved my si.

[@Alodri]

B16 w/ S1 trans in my EF was REALLY fun! Gearing of S1 was comically short but a blast just to drive around town. Plus JDM ECU was still speed limited to 112mph and that was just enough at my local road course long straight. Car is no longer swapped and now just enjoying that 40mpg life with the nimble lightweight driving feel.

[@dlee6985]

EF for me, since I owned a white 91 Si as my first car back in 2001. Was so excited to drive it, I went to the garage where it was waiting to get safetied, at night and “borrowed” it so I could practice driving manual. Put two different plates on it because one of my moms plates wouldn’t come off so I “borrowed” my neighbours 😅 Drove to the beach at like 3am, got pulled over and a $6000 fine for no insurance/plates etc 😂😂😂 Good times, good times.

[@Euphorica]

Pete trying to show us the beautiful EF sound down the straight and brother wouldn't stop talking 😂

[@mattfraser9]

This whole series was so cool. That EF made me emotional. My first car was a 1990 Si that looked damn near identical. I miss it every day!

[@184pin]

It's all about the raw power of the B series. VTEC or not.

[@jnl88]

Both of these are absolute gems. Excellent video.

[@cpds25]

Love the track battles! Great video guys.

[@giorx5]

Great video! Thanks a lot guys! Keep doing so well!

[@rx7pete769]

One of the best YT channels! Having owned both, the EG for me is the winner.

[@jeremyadams1742]

happy to see you guys back on the track!

[@davidl1144]

Being an older honda head the EF has my heart as I absolutely love these machines and the platform itself. In the same token the Eg is a beast itself in the performance department between both builds. Best thing about both of theses chassis is they have timeless good looks and never look as old as they are!

[@jacoblacroix9024]

Great video guys love the track on all your guys hard work pays off ! Keep up the great videos

[@Spark972]

Had an EG with B18 type-r engine & torsen, what a sweet memory of 9400rpm red line... But my EFs with D16A9 DOHC were cool too even with less power, the fun was still there.

[@elektromagnetik2786]

Finally been waiting to see those cars on track for so long. Incredible series guys.

[@karanikristian9010]

been watching since before the rebrand, love the content !! keep on

[@Shhteeve15]

B16B in both cars and run it back! I think with a little more time put into the EF's suspension, it would've killed the EG. This series was such a treat to watch, great job boys!

Awesome series, awesome channel. You guys are mind readers when it comes to the types of platforms I love to see :-)

Nice to see you guys back at the track, love both cars 🤩

[@variousd3507]

I have been watching your channel since I was in college in the States, then back to my home country, and now in TO. Where I realized that you in Canada blew my mind! You have great taste in wheels, tail lights/headlights/bumper replacements. Continental tires are awesome too I have on my car. Hard to choose between the two. I guess I would go with the EF the way you built it. Have an awesome day.

[@jasonward1312]

I owned a ‘90 EF(first car) and later a ‘96 EK. Hatches still hold a special place for me. Loved this series. Keep up the good work.

[@ryanstuve]

Amazing builds. Two beauties. Love em both

[@bustedpiggybank]

Amazing work guys!

[@kalmtraveler]

For me, the screaming high RPM VTEC motors are just more fun to whip around. The old Top Gear hosts said it best - something along the lines of "you can push a slow car to it's limit on public roads, but you can't really enjoy a fast car outside a race track".

[@rodrigo4379]

Loved this series! Cant wait for more honda vids

Starting my birthday off with speed academy! Gonna be a good day!

[@suttonsplash14]

Love it guys great result!

[@MarioFunk]

Guys! Another KILLER series! Loved both builds, especially the old-school nature of the EF... But, I gotta say, the torque of the EG was just too good! I wish I could buy one of these beauties, but I'm confident whoever does buy them will be getting some truly awesome machines!

[@BryceRehder]

Such an amazing build off, please more golden Era Honda’s 🙏 fantastic to see these come together.

Pete built the perfect budget turbo EG. Dave has the safe/seat time chariot. I love both of them, I hope to see y’all at gridlife fest.

Gotta give the win to PT. It’s just faster everywhere and not unruly. DP also has some valve stem seals to change. 😂

Hello from Connecticut! A bit of a sponsor shoutout - after hearing all of your praises of the Conti ECS 02s, I recently installed a set on my car. They’re awesome. Looking forward to learning their limits during autox this summer.

As an ef8 owner myself im a little biased toward the ef😂 but i really like both , it was a very good series guy’s … keep up the incredible work😊

These builds were awesome! I own a 90 ED6 with a B18A1 and i have a B20V (B20 block GSR head with type-r cams) that will be going in soon. Y'all got me re thinking my goals. That turbo life looks too good! Also, my shoes have Continental soles as well, Adidas Terrex.

[@01FozzyS]

Love the sounds of the EF for sure.

[@zeroyon4562]

This is great. Makes me miss my Hondas, I’d like to build a turbo EK after watching this. There’s just something about them.

The eg/dc integra are the best of both worlds. 90's is the golden era of many car manufacturers (imo) ✌️😎

I had the opportunity to own both Si but the EF does win my heart. Nonetheless, both were executed very clean and nice. Great series Speed Academy. Always look forward to my Saturdays

[@liam821]

Awesome fun! EG has it for me too, but it needs a vtec head and another 1500 rpms!
