Our 2006 MME Race Car

Introduced in July 1991 the fifth generation of the Honda Civic had a more wedge-shaped body and the length was increased to 257 cm (101.3 inches) for the two-door hatchback and 262 cm (103.2 inches) for the four-door sedan. The wagon was also dropped for overseas markets, while the previous generation station wagon continued in Japan. This generation of Civic used lightweight materials to create a fuel efficient economy car. In addition, the Si hatchback and coupe, ESi/EX (1.6L SOHC VTEC 125 PS) also provoked to the popularity of (relatively) high performance 1.6L I4 segment. In South Africa a unique model with the B18B3 from the Acura Integra RS was specially built to fill the gap left by the absence of the DOHC B16A VTEC engine in the range. In 1994, the EG Civic saw some minor updates and changes, but the exterior remained much the same. In the UK, the EG civic gained anti-lock brakes & Rear Brake Discs as standard, a larger 'one-piece' rear spoiler and colour coded front air ducts. It also came with LSD gear box. The interior was changed from grey to a charcoal colour.
