Honda Orthia Mod/Upgrade Compatibility
Honda Orthia Mod/Upgrade Compatibility
Good afternoon!
I'm planning on importing a 1996 Honda Orthia 1.8 GX, the 6th Gen Civic wagon we in the states simply never got (and what becomes legal for import this year). Although I imagine and assume that most Civic/Integra upgrades, be they bolt-ons or what have you, would be compatible or even identical, are there any special considerations for the Orthia for basic engine, power, and suspension upgrades? The main thing that concerns me is the exhaust; there are, of course, exhaust systems for the B18B/C1 from Skunk2 and GReddy and the Orthia shares the same engine but will the exhaust fit underneath the Orthia when it was made for the underside of the Integra?
Basically, what, if any, are the major differences in layout between the Orthia and the cars it's based on and shares components with that will affect mods, etc?
I don't wanna import a car just to find out nothing fits it, lol, so any insight any of y'all might have that could steer me in this endeavor would be much appreciated.

Hey man I recently got an Orthia and started a thread on some of the parts I've used.
