Word & Photos by Roger Dawson
This amazing JDM Civic is owned by Raj Sandu. This car has come a long way from the Black unfinished Civic he bought back in 2008 and from day one Raj has had big plans or it. In the past year this car has been transformed using a lot of blood, sweat and tears of the owner and his crew the Variety Pac. This slick gold Civic is rolling on a set of 16×7 bronze Volk TE37’s wrapped in falken Azenis 615k 205/40/16 tires.
This car may look compete but Raj says there are a few things changing under the hood in the near future and the B18A with the 98 Type R transmission out and who knows what in its place. All I know is one way or another Raj is going to do it big. Final words from Raj he wants to send a shout out to Invision Auto Imports for all their help with getting parts and input on the car and his crew the Variety Pac for all the support and help.
