long run my ass, the way i drive my car's a dsm would never hold up, i wouldnt want it for the long run, becuase id keep it until i finish rebuilding my b18a1 ls\vtec civic

im willing to take on any of your awd 4g63t cars with it, only mods ill have on my 200hp civic is cold air, exhuast, plugs, wires, and tuning....so it will probably be around 215-230hp, lets not forget if i decide to rebuild with rods, cams, pistons, and oil squirter kit, oh yeah, instead of cold air, maybe some itbs.

wed be lookin at about 400hp all motor (with itb's)

not a bad way to spend 3k

hell ill even put money on it.

yeah better invest on a huge wing for the hood you gonna need the traction.

Why don't you quit talking about your badass civic and go ahead and do it? If DSM's are so horrible why are you still wasting your time on this site?

Fast hondas? I didn't know we were talking oxymorons...

Honda Civics are reliable and slow stock. Always have been. If you want a Honda, why go with a DSM? I've owned 3 Honda Civics so far but, I don't bash other cars that may not have the exact reliability record. You asked for opinions, you got opinions. Don't get mad. Also, I've never seen any 6 or 7 second Honda's. Every car has it's positives and negatives. The more you mod a car, the less reliable it gets, regardless of make. I've seen plenty of blown Honda engines.

its called ballist and lsd

shave the weight in the back, and move it up front.
gives you better traction, plus leaves you with less under steer

add a LSD, your pretty well off.

and #### wings, id never put a wing or body kit or any shit on my car ever!!

im not some dumb Beaner who thinks decals, and wal mart chrome hub caps add horsepower. the ef is probably the better of the civics because its very stiff and light weight.

the only thing id do to the body is keep it clean.

and fix any damage or rust.


ive seen 6 and 7 second honda's all the time, watch the speed channel, read some magazines, youll see them

but im not aiming for anything faster then 13s im making a street car, that i can still drive to work.

Hondas are extremely reliable, I can vouch, but judas sounds like some punk sixteen year old who's parents got him a galant for his first car, and he's watched fast and the furious way too much and never misses a release of import tuner.

My brother has a civic. Its a solid 17 second car all day

And there is NO reason to get racist

 

[Emeianoite]

My friends always tell me to get an EG hatch so I can get into the honda game... but I like to have good 1/4 mile times...

 

[ilco187]

everyone has there choice in what they want to blow money on.

Honda Forum / Acura Forum - SuperHonda.com < there is were you should be.

Hey if what you want is a reliable 17 second hatch back I work at a Toyota dealership and could probably hook you up with a sweet deal on a Yaris .

Why is this thread still going?

 

[tqmx1]

ok people on this forum are bigger stuck up ass holes then ford mustang owners. have you maybe thought not every one wants to go big? im building a TIME ATTACK CAR! i want more then 300 absolute max!

fwd cars spank awd and rwd cars in AutoX all the time.
im doing 80% handling, and 20% power

if i wanted a awd dsm i would buy a awd dsm

Calm down a bit. If you are talking 8 valve head it might be a bit week but if you could come up with a way to put the SOHC 16V head on it or get a HYUNDAY 2.4 with the 8V head it just might be somthing

Find a Hyunday engine over the stock 4G37 thats .6 L more then I think you would have a tourque monster for on the CHEEP

So in my book bolt it in and see what happens. What do you have to loose another 4G37 to the graveyard it it does not work?

That counts as no big deal

Go have some fun, Wnat the heck
