ha I never got that trend....I used to see a shit load of cars like that when I first started going to HIN.....thats a sick M3....oh no wait its a civic lol

you would think with the time effort and money put into that theyd just buy a WRX...or at least a 2.5rs, they have to be just about equal in price...Id love to own a decked out STI and roll up on that thing or even better run it off the road :keke:

lol no excuses period............. PERIOD. Someone should do a case study on honda owners, and some 240 owners. Everyone comes up with ideas that seem cool, the only problem is some people never realize its not a good idea.

As soon as I saw the title, "Hondabaru WRXcord" I knew something was going to be terribly wrong. It looks like it could be a transformer (no, I'm not dissing on Transformers). This shit reminds me of the Pimp My Ride 240...DAMN IT!

I see the thread in my mind. www.ricerforums.com (http://www.ricerforums.com)
"I decided to do a WRX retro. I'm going to use the 04-05 headlights and the 00-03 tails on my Civic."
"How much fwhp are you going to gain?"

I have to admit though, whoever owns the car put a lot of time, effort, and money into all the fabrication. Although I'd never drive the car and think it's the most retarded car ever, I give props to the own(d)er for uniqueness.

EDIT: www.ricerforums.com (http://www.ricerforums.com) IS A REAL SITE! WTF!?

Lol, idk about whether the fact of just blowing a lot of $$$ and effort alone should merit admiration. if anything, it makes things even worse if the end product is junk. What's better, the riced-out pos car with $500 worth of stickers, cheap aero, and APC parts, or a likewise riced-out pos car with $5,000+ invested in bodywork/fab etc.? At least the more economical ricer wasted less time and $$$.

Honesty a stock civic is great for daily driver and I think they can look very clean. I think they just get a bad rep since they got so popular and arent that expensive so all the young stupid teenagers can buy em. Then they just got way popular and blew up. I remeber when I had my civic I used to drive from Chino Hills to Irvine to go train and it save me so much gas. Now I dd my sc300 and uhh 91 octane and 6 cylinders isnt anywhere near the mpg haha. So I mean civics are cool for dd but This civic/sti/wtf/omgz/wtf thing took it way to far hhaha

shit reminds me of some of the douchebags driving around Fresno with civics and 3000gt, and mr2's.

there is a 3000gt with yellow racing stripes ad matching yellow rims with a mercedes logo on the hood and a gtr badge on the rear, and a few mr2's with yellow ferrarri badge stickers on the side.

because they own hondas.

Maybe it's just some super elaborate way of getting away with parking tickets :P

The ticket would obviously state some sort of subaru wrx of some sort while it's got to be registered as a civic... and how can anyone miss judge a civic from being anything else.

honda drivers always want something else cuz when they were given/bought the cars from by parents. why waste a perfectly good vehicle that has served your family and sell it when you can... convert it to an STI!

lets not forget the Stream Z GT Jr.

yah it is quite interesting. they're using vette chassis and motor, but the the exterior is fabricated such that they can throw on the civic body exterior. impressive that the end result it worked so well, at least visually. you would never suspect that its not a civic. whether or not you like it depends on your perspective. its cool only if you look at it as the ultimate sleeper (takes the concept to the extreme), but a total waste of $$$ and somewhat pointless otherwise.

Still ,this is def not in the same league as the horrid Sti/civic. thats an undeniable insult to civic and sti owners alike.

I think he tried to hard to save his car from spinning and just made things worse. seems like a total amaturish mistake on a track.

saw that video and was wondering how the hell it was wrecked. it just spun out and didnt roll. the worst Id imagine is maybe messed up alignment and suspension. I had something similar happen to me a few years ago (spun, wheels hit the apex curb hard). Ended up bending 2 wheels and replacing a few suspension arms but nothing too serious.

What the fuck

you try driving somthing that ill fucking designed

like the VW W12 GTI , it handled like a complete pile of shit and VW even built it, in germany with real engineers and teams of R and D and wizardry.

and it totally failed

BIG heavy engine, short wheel base, too much torque, rwd= usually equalls fail especially for drifting, its huge oversteer all day and then just smoke.

the car wants to kill you, and for good reason.

it was for a VW festival in Europe first, sema second.

they rushed the car

But if an OEM manufacturer rushes somthing it is still probably 20 times more engineered than some joe blow backyard tuner witha welder a spare ek and a small block.

thats what happens when you have 3 kids at the age of 20 and work at pay-less shoes. when the suby finance department rejects your credit for an STI, u say fuck you to them by BUILDING YOUR OWN STI!...
