Civics Can Be Fast - With enough $$$

(blah)

i hate civic bashers. yeah, a majority are ricey, but you have to give credit where it is due.....
 
im not bashing civics, im just saying "its still a civic" put 20k into any car and it go fast on the track too. BTW- what was up with the interior video lol
 
Probably was less than 20k. I spent only about 4000 bucks and got mine into 13s untuned. Would have easily been in the 12s with more tuning.

yep, i just threw the number 20k in their for the hell of it, i will give credit to those motors, they take a hell of a lot of abuse and still keep moving... i just wish people diden't rice em out as much as they do.

civic does not = rice

stupid people who drive civics = rice
you mean stupid people, who rice out their civics=rice. I know all civics aren't rice but i've seen more riced out civics like the one in this pic... than i have nice ones. Even though i have a good friend of mine whos got a completly NON riced out civic that runs 12's..

gotcha, yea I agree... the civic got a really bad name because you have people out there throwing on a muffler and cone filter and then claiming they run 12s all day long. Along with all the rice accessories.

just my 2cents but the point of having a fast ass civic like that would be exactly that :) its still a civic ... think about what it feels like to a mustang/camaro/or even some vette drivers when "just a civic" owns you down the track :)

ok i understand your view, i would have a better perspective if i know what and how much mods that civic had in it.
 
a civic hatch can be made to run 12's for under 6K INCLUDING THE COST of the car, so don't be a hata, well only to the ricers
 
yeah 6K USD and i don't want a beater civic lol
i will post the archive article when i get home (AT WORK NOW)

lol im just messin, diden't realalize you live in canada, i know modding a civic is farely cheap, just a few weeks ago my co-worker bought a '92 hatch, and hes planning on swapping an H22 i belive, an tuning it to make some big h.p. BTW- the hatch costed him about $950!
 
its easier for a B18c to go in since its direct bolt up, the prelude engine needs serious modifications for it to fit

B18c = 195HP + 75 shot NAWWWS = 270HP in a ~2300-2400lbs car

ya the b18's do bolt right on, hes gonna have to cut a lil here and there and mod. to get the H22 to work properly, but he doesn't work during the summer so hes got the time/resourses, a fun summer project!
