Finally! Some Major Progress On Der's Civic Build!!...

[@goodboy_aqee58]

der, please make more in depth tutorial about that can-bus connection to stock cluster please... that steering wheel control to dash integration is sick.

[@MimmsHondaDay]

Exactly my thoughts 👍🏻

[@Saetchel]

Der-spec is the best spec

[@subros.]

Great progress. Love the digital dash and steering wheel combo. Buttons and wiring are so clean 👍

[@JP-gd1ln]

Absolutely the best EK builder of all time. If Ryan Der even breathes on an EK instantly turns to gold. Each version of his original EK was in their own right the stuff of legend no one topped the original EK versions 1-3 back then (depending how you split em up) and no one's going to top this one now. All hail the Der🙌 #airbagclub #EKsquad #ATSgarage #RawHeart

[@THECHRONICLES]

He's on the Mount Rushmore for sure.

[@GTS206]

Awesome video, love the cage! Great step by step as well getting the vents/dash situated.

[@jhoff563]

These videos are never long enough.

[@Thrivetribe47]

Clean build. Love the simplicity of this blog. All about the details struggles and execution

[@THECHRONICLES]

Glad you liked it!

[@louistorres3187]

Big Fan from Delaware Joey Thank you for the content

[@THECHRONICLES]

Appreciate it thanks!

[@slowdrivinggg000]

Not many people can fill up a 20 minute video so well like Joey does. Wish more car youtubers would edit like this instead of shoving their face in everything all the time

[@THECHRONICLES]

Tell everyone else that too haha

[@Pallidus_Rider]

I agree. I get tired of looking at Joey 🤪 His videos are freaking art. 👍😎👍

[@emtyracing]

I honestly cant help but think you and Der could collab on mass producing the button plate. I would love to grab the quick release and have buttons for the horn. Possible even having that “launch” button as a push start button.

[@bay1.charlie]

Can’t wait to see this build come together. So many cool intricate details.

[@THECHRONICLES]

Yahhhhh

[@pepperjack253]

Always enjoy how you do your content and even more so watching someone do a proper build these days. Always love the west coast build style

[@THECHRONICLES]

Thanks! Glad you like it. We try to be consistent here with both the quality of the videos and the builds.

[@1990na6]

This is how to civic. Well done 👍

[@gustavodantas2483]

I just can't stop watch your videos. I found your channel a few weeks ago and I've watched almost a year of your videos lol

[@THECHRONICLES]

Haha thank you, glad you enjoy them!

[@pollo.888]

the details 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼 love the plan to run a pdm and have all of the controls on the wheel.

[@1st_Gen_Life]

Wow he did a great job lining up everything and not cutting more then what he had to cut. This brought back memories of me putting my safety 21 cage in my Z back in the day. Great job 👍

[@THECHRONICLES]

Yeah not bad for a first time attempt

[@Villajesse]

@6:20 The perfect place for a Racing Hart wheel Box with DC5 Parts written on it.

[@vitalig.3025]

Well, like in advance, another masterpiece, like a breath of fresh air. Go Chronicles!

[@THECHRONICLES]

Thank you sir!

[@rom7n]

that was amazing. i was thinking of getting the "around the dash" type cage but this looks worth it to go the extra step

[@THECHRONICLES]

Yeah it wasn't as difficult as we thought it would be.

[@toddxhiggins]

The freeze after the spanner slips 😂 Been there many times.

[@THECHRONICLES]

LOL!

[@bricepeterson4658]

Such a sweet build and I’m loving the gran Turismo menu music

[@vtec-619]

Let's gooo!! super nice EK 💯🤙

[@BlackyBrownDestruction9337]

Damn I want a holed rear bumper, my cuts aint that clean

[@ozzyg3961]

Sooooo good, nothing else to say😱🔥🔥🔥

[@steffenflindt8670]

He got the Zoom mirror 🔥

[@skv23]

Beautiful car!

[@kraziekory666]

That EK is coming along nice. Good stuff guys.

[@THECHRONICLES]

It’s surely getting there!

[@Sick_Boy.]

Those Tail lights are 🔥

[@doderiolarkisso4038]

Der got that keen eye for style

[@TheFK8Life]

So jelly - miss my EK - she's a beaut

[@zacharyballew4320]

Always bringing the juice!!!!

[@ramonbriones4487]

Yay an upload while I'm washing dishes

[@CyberTerrorism]

Sweet EK

[@MimmsHondaDay]

Man, the cars coming along really nice. Good job 👍🏻

[@THECHRONICLES]

Thanks!

[@yeahman1756]

@@13:50 insert "just the tip" lmfao...😂😂🤣🤣

[@honeyconer82]

The grip looks perfect🫡

[@WhiteCharisma]

I'd love to meet Der some day to discuss wiring. From building RC cars to tackling my own wiring harness, it's crazy how much you can recycle on the OEM harness! His dash and steering wheel setup is seriously next level. I didn't even know that was possible to repurpose that much! #DerSpec

[@tomstevens7452]

Once that drill hits the dash you are past the fail safe point.

[@THECHRONICLES]

Lol yup for real!

[@jacobparra3131]

Nice progress Der and Joey❤

[@om1kron]

geeking Ryan has an EK again

[@THECHRONICLES]

We all are haha

[@yeahman1756]

@6:30 insert " i got a boy who can do it for cheap" 🤣🤣😂😂😂

[@angeloah]

Nice work on the ek v2 reminds me of another atk white ek with blue accents. Lol the steering wheel though.

[@gizmods7022]

love these videos and Japan ones. got me more into the kanjo cars coz of your videos. wot rear view mirror is that as it looks epic

[@Allwayskind6]

ik it’s prob a temp wheel setup but I like the reverse staggering 🖤🔥

[@undergroundkingsgarage3215]

Those taillights are 🔥

[@ericmess8261987]

This is going to be so nice.

[@THECHRONICLES]

If all goes as planned yes!

[@mugennick5209]

19:04 got too excited Ryan, hope you didn’t scratch. Did I see that Yasu is making carbon ek side moldings?

[@THECHRONICLES]

That’s not Yasu he would never make that lol, that’s Mode Parfume. It’s a different company.

[@thedistance8843]

Ek hatch mob! 👊❤️

[@Pharaoh_The_Great]

I believe that welded cages go through the dash and bolted cages go around the dash. Idk lol

[@THECHRONICLES]

Bolt-in cages have both options, through the dash or around the dash. So you'd be wrong lol.

[@jonathanxtapia]

Well done putting the hard work to make it look so authentic and clean. What Recaro seats you running Der?

[@goodboy_aqee58]

recaro profi SPa aramid

[@sherwinyazzie9650]

Want that cage!! Got any leads for me??

[@shionnsr8684]

I wonder how long before another batch of the exceed lips for the jdm front dc2 gonna come out..sigh

[@THECHRONICLES]

Probably by summer since a container is leaving Japan soon, if it hasn't left already.

I like that steering setup

[@robertcuestas667]

WHAT DASH GUAGE SETUP ARE YOU USING? I have an EM1 I bought with no guages and im looking to do something custom.

[@miguel7905]

Hey, watching the old videos but noticed Yuta isn’t getting any screen time. Is he currently away?

[@kaytwo777]

What's steering wheel setup is that as far as the connection inside of it

[@THECHRONICLES]

I'll wait for Der to respond to that one...

[@WhiteCharisma]

I think it's a Krontec QR-03 and as Der described, it has an autosport connector inside to utilize several pins to wire in whatever you'd need on the wheel. Real crazy race car stuff!

[@martyhowie75]

What type of brand of wing is that?👍🏻

[@THECHRONICLES]

Top Fuel Japan

[@jonoung]

Looks so good! Curious, where’s Yuta been?

[@THECHRONICLES]

Question has been answered plenty before but he didn’t want to be on camera anymore and hangs out at another shop now

[@ChopDeady]

What do you call that rear bumper ??? I need it

[@ChingChing301b10]

Nice

[@uses0ap]

I want to see the guts of that cluster

[@FDEaries]

Link for steering wheel cover ?

[@joseperezpaz9986]

Are those 15” or 16” wheels??

[@THECHRONICLES]

16-inch

Who said it was a show car? Lol

[@tommykaira8775]

what's the rim and wheel specs?

[@Pallidus_Rider]

Umm, so with roll cage, will we finally see "The Chronicles" racing livery? 🙏 😎 🙏

[@THECHRONICLES]

No livery, it’s California lol we don’t want that much attention

[@j4259]

Love how the US vlogs is no different then Japan vlogs. Focus on the subject and item in front and not about you.

I stay pretty consistent with not wanting to be on camera lol

Very nice. What kind of carbon mirrors are those?

Temporary ones, they came with the car. Prob like Spoon replicas or something similar
