It was because of this video that I made a replica of the Spoon EG6 around 1999-2001. Saw this video on a Best Motoring DVD at the time. My Spoon civic was featured in the October 2001 SuperStreet magazine. At that time there were no social media and I didn’t have a video camera. All I have are a few photos of the car and the magazine. I’ve always wished there was a video of me driving that car but there isn’t. So I watch this video from time to time when I miss it.

[@fernweh8709]

Nice, could you make a video with pictures?

[@monsieurfabio]

What happened to the EG6 ? Did you sell it ?

[@madman6097]

respect og

[@Fizz826]

Fab' I sold it to a guy from New Jersey in 2002.

[@Fizz826]

Eric Rath wouldn’t that just be a slideshow of pictures? I meant I wish I have actual videos of the car and me driving it on the track..

[@KevinAbillGaming]

Shingo left Night Kids and joined Toudou School and painted his EG6 like Tomoyuki's EK9.

[@sooryan_1018]

So Tomoyuki and Shingo learnt the bumping technique that way eh

[@clgmotorsport3021]

Plus he swapped a B18c too for more power and torque

[@dr.wisdom3282]

This video shows how good the ek9 was straight from factory......it went against a lighter car fully modified with a bigger engine.

[@calebleong5853]

Actually you can tell Tsuchiya is slowing down on purpose, keeping the revs low just to play with the Ek9, 2:25 - 2:41 he stays at 6k and the moment he pushes the pedal he literally comes right up. Unfair comparison though- 300-400lbs lighter with a bigger engine more torque and Hp 😅

[@anhiirr]

@@calebleong5853 not just that but the lines arent even remotely matched...which showcases the Spoon tune/speed range as well at lower rpm/mid power band vs peak. The CTR rear was tip toeing XD....while the spoon was choosing w.e line necessary at slighly lower power than max not bad at all from the EG to be able to still corner/keep up the same pace as the CTR pushing its limits.

[@xFWWONGx]

To me, EG has timeless look although the car design is more than 20 years already.

[@DildosForChristmas]

Really? I love that shape but it's imo it definitely looks it's age and very outdated

[@qeedzhr]

@@DildosForChristmas Yeah, but still it looks beautiful.

[@DildosForChristmas]

@@qeedzhr it does look nice but definitely dated. It's my favourite shape I think

[@AugmentedGravity]

To me, the EK looks better

[@hydrolics5449]

Few things are sexier than a spoon eg. Function to the max and it brings form with it too.

[@Catalina._]

Spoon forkey EF still the best civic, i don't like boxy cars but EF is something else along with AE86 and F40

[@Saugusari11]

In no category is 4th gen best civic. THe greatest was the wonder civic of 3rd gen, then eg6 which is mental and ofc ek9 the first type r civic. Today around the world time attacks are mainly done with EGs not EK chassis when it comes to civics. EG is a cornering machine, when paired with more power it destroys.

[@ericdrisgula3879]

That race was very surprising , I know type R's are bad ass , I had two buddies who each had one years ago and they were phenominal cars, but just giving how the bubble was most likely lighter, has a lower center of gravity, aftermarket suspension , good tires and Christ a b18c by spoon not just a regular b18c which def should made a decent amount more power and def torque than the smaller b16b which even in stock form is a nasty little motor im just shocked that the spoon bubble couldn't over take the ek9 until the very end I thought he'd have a decent lead the whole race but that ek9 fought one hell of a tough battle and hung with the spoon b18c, crazy.

[@dangusprime]

people are sleeping on these civics bro, they see FWD and think its shit... Civics use FWD to their advantage with a good diff, torque steer reduction, suspension / chassis type and setup to make the Civics use FWD to their advantage, front wheels pull the front of the car into turns and slight oversteer / neutral turn, rather than mostly all other FWD that understeer

Both Mustang and Camaro as of today's iteration are more lean towards to grand tourer. They probably have similar weight to the 3000GT/GTO VR4.

Their almost the same. Obviously the eg had the edge due to 1.8 more tq and lighter. But both cars aint too different when racing. All about the driver and what's done to the car. Both are definetly the best civic.
