Drop me an email at cooler_sin (at) hotmail.com and i can tell you as much of the details as i worked out. I have an EL here that is nearly ready to go in. But i changed my mind **sigh**

You can convert city turbo manifolds to fit if it is the earlier version EL (with ports IEEIIEEI). The city exhaust manifolt bolts straight up, and to get the intake manifold on you have to move 2 studs and thicken the top of the head a little (build up about 6mm of weld) and then grind out the teardrop shapes for the injectors. Being an non cvcc, an aftermarket ecu will not have any trouble running the injection system. A bigger throttle body would be a good idea as the city one is absolutely tiny. Apart from that youre pretty much good to go. (boosted EL will haull ass!!!!)

Most of the gear was purchased second hand.
Fenders are made from welding fabricated sheetmetal to standard guards. I have ones for the rear as well but they require rear quarters to be cut out and I haven't got round to that yet.Soon...
Radiator is out of a Gemini I think, tight fit but works well.
The rear spoiler is a three piece unit consisting of rear lip and the two side pieces. I think its custom made for the civic because it contours the fuel filler panel on the left hand side.
Carby system leaves a lot to be desired so I am looking at fuel injection (Intercooler!) not an easy option, need to find a suitable dizzy or cam angle sensor... Any ideas??
I'll take some more snaps tonight

What about those front fenders, how'd You make them, or are they off another car as well?

what radiator are you using? it looks like a tight fit.

I see you you have SA plates. If you live in or near Adelaide I would love to come and have a look at your civic sometime.

That's a second generation camaro wing.

Hey,

I like that little rear spoiler! Did you build it yourself, or is it off of another type of car?

Flat black is COOL, gives the Civic a stealth look.

Regards,
Shea

How did you make up that intake? How much boost you running? I see Oscar Jackson used to use an SU carb on his turbo set ups but it looked quite a bit different than that one.
