We Put a $10,000 Engine in our $500 Civic

The most unbelievable part of this video is the fact they found a 500 dollar civic in on this economy

Please turn this into another money pit season.

This is so fantastic to see!! My whole life I was a car fan and I dreamed of building and repairing cars. Sadly I was not cut out to be one and I turned another way. Seeing you guys work on a project like that is just amazing!! I owned a civic and it was not fast enough to witness the birth of my second daughter from the moment when I got the call when being on duty and me " racing" back home sadly I wasn't fast enough. If I would have had this beauty, things would have turned different. Anyway, enough of the sentimental part the bottom line is I always loved Honda and had special love for the Civic. So thank you for sharing this, being the owner of that car must sure be freaking awesome!! (bit jealous here lol) Warm greetings from there Netherlands !! keep them rolling ;)

I really want to see you guys get a roll cage, bucket seats and run a four banger race. I'm an engineer in aerospace and absolutely love your guys videos, everything you guys do in terms of trial and error and just enjoying the moment is really what it's all about. If you ever need another mind for the projects let me know.

No matter how many engine swaps you do, that first startup always feels like magic lol

I feel like this one episode could’ve been an entire season of money pit, and I for one definitely want to see all of the hard work that went into this car

Not gonna lie, I liked this video before I even hit the play button.

BTW, to the guys of Donut, this and Real Mechanic Stuff are my two new favorite channels and I want to thank you guys for feeding my inspiration to become a certified mechanic and someday have my own shop too. I started working on motorcycles as a hobby when I was a teenager and had a natural talent for it, but then I joined the Army and spent a lot of years in related fields and my mechanical talents sat on the back burner for a long time. Now I'm 35 and I have finally realized that you don't have to hate your job and break your body to adult properly and my passion for working on mechanical things has come back to life and you guys are feeding that fire in me. You guys are so down to earth and seem like dudes I would love hanging around with turning wrenches all day and I hope I get to work with guys like you when I get that far. So thank you for inspiring me and I hope to keep seeing videos from you guys for a long time to come.

10:27 The sound Master Chief makes when he dies

Definitely need a Rev counter with shifter light so you can get those perfect shifts and some racing seats

Thank you for not splitting this up into episodes! Straight up action packed 💪

I love the EG's , have one myself for autocross. Stiffer springs, some chassis bracing , proper track alignment and a Kirkey and there is no doubt you will drop a fair amount of time. Hopefully enough to catch the CTR.

Man, this car sounds incredible 😩

Also, going from 15 seconds for 0 - 60 (here in SA 🇿🇦 we say 0 - 100) to 5 seconds is a crazy improvement

i love the genuine joy Adam got from the first firing up of the engine. he was not expecting it to work first try lol

This is the kind of Donut content I like to see.

I can't wait to see this car completed! Might be my favorite project you all have worked on!

I'm truly amazed. You guys knocked it out of the park with having a whole engine swap and time comparison between both engines all in one video. And the quality 🤌

This new format of denser episodes is such a great and refreshing change. Huge fan of the direction you guys have been going in, keep it up!

Thank you guys for listening to the viewers and can’t wait to see a turbo installed🐌

I was came to Miami in 92 from Colombia and the civic hatchback was my Favorite car. So cool to see the Potential, Amazing Job!!

You guys need to do more builds like this, take the old money pit rides and turn them into trackday/weekend warriors!
