He's a mod on Classic Honda of Australia fb page pretty sure, been wanting to make a Classic Honda of NZ page, but the nz honda av/as/at/aa group is pretty good in the mean time.

Any reason not to use 12" rims if you convert to old Civic hubs?

I found a guy who used old civic hubs which then worked with later model calipers, i think that is why the 13's were needed.

12" tyres must be hard to get tires for these days?

Yes, 12" tyres are becoming hard to find and are almost always more expensive than 13".

Haven’t seen that one, do you have a link?

 

Unfortunately not.

Those pics were off a blog from 2010. Im sure something is around but can't confirm.  There is a white one in japan also on 10s, flared with similar exhaust style.

Does anyone know if a 1979-1983 Civic rotting away around Wellington?

@Figgy Did you manage to flick your Civic? Or have any other sources?

There's probably a couple floating around if you join that NZ Honda Civic AT/AS/ etc page

I had sent a join request for the NZ Honda av/as/at/aa group about a week ago but never got a reply/acceptance thing. Guess they don't like my face or something.

Joined a couple of other N360 groups and early Honda stuff but mostly overseas.

Looks like his is a 1978, might not be the same hubs. Plus his looks too nice for parts.

I need a rotten one to pillage parts to see if I can make the hubs and disk brakes work, found this blog thing saying they do:

But driveshafts don't, so would need to work something out there.

I wonder if accord or shuttle stuff would work?

Cool thanks, if I can't find one a bit closer I'll let you know. I'd be looking at hubs, discs, calipers, driveshafts and maybe wheels so probably a bit to send.
