Posted November 4, 201212 yr In his Flickr photoset, LegoMarat posted 16 pictures and a Flickr video of his Lego Technic 1988 Honda Civic. The DETAILS are extraordinary for a car of this scale! It has front and rear double wishbone suspension; opening doors, bonnet, & hatch; folding seats; dual overhead cam engine; and 4-speed gearbox: Edited November 5, 201212 yr by DLuders
November 4, 201212 yr Oh, nice. I like that window-shaping and the engine-compartment. This goes along well with sheepo's mini. It proves that Technic cars don't necessarily have to be super-cars!
November 4, 201212 yr Oh, nice. I like that window-shaping and the engine-compartment. This goes along well with sheepo's mini. It proves that Technic cars don't necessarily have to be super-cars! Precisely, also the cars of this era were quite boxy so easier to model in Technic For those wondering what the real car looks like (identical to the model pretty much by the way) here are some pictures: http://hondaswap.com/attachments/8282d1218943720-picture-003.jpg http://www.skierpage.com/civic/images/2oclock_low.jpg As you can see, identical to the Lego model!!

November 5, 201212 yr This is the first time I see dual shock absorber used this way. Nice work. Although most of the aesthetics are non-functional, I can't help but applauding the diversity in elements used. I see you used a lot of flex axles for curves and windshield. How rigid is the model?
November 5, 201212 yr This is nice, really nice; lots of details and functions... and is great to see every now and then a technic car that is not a supercar
November 8, 201212 yr This is the first time I see dual shock absorber used this way. Nice work. Although most of the aesthetics are non-functional, I can't help but applauding the diversity in elements used. I see you used a lot of flex axles for curves and windshield. How rigid is the model? I had to use dual shock absorbers because turned out single shock absorber would not hold weight of the completed model. Using second absorber this way allowed me to avoid redesign of the front suspension. =) Some parts of model are flexible, like bumpers and front part of the roof. In the same time the base of the model (stuff that in between front and rear axles) is rigid, since i used technic bricks instead of beams. NICE!! I especially like the engine bay detail Is that a little turbo i see? I was able to put turbo under the hood, as well as intercooler inside front bumper. But i failed to build full intake manifold and exaust. =( BTW, my inspiration photo http://www.hondatuni...k/photo_01.html
November 13, 201212 yr Nice Car - CRX Please Here I was thinking Prelude Please! Drove one in High School and still have it to this day.
November 13, 201212 yr Very nice detail but the battery in the engine compartment is on the wrong side of the engine
November 13, 201212 yr one word: Amazing! i love these kind of cars, dont get me wrong it's easy have a "wow" effect if you build a supercar, with an usual car like this you need to kick ***, and hell yeah, this car rocks!
