damn... that civic will eat my ka-t alive and then spit it in little pieces through the exhaust...
I like the manifold... everything is so bling and super clean under there...
nicely done...
did he do all of this by himself?

That's acutally pretty cool. I can respect all the work that took.
Definitely faster (in a straight line) than both my cars at the moment.

I dont think hondas are homos.. the owners maybe.. some of em.... but the honda itself is pretty well-built stock. I like em especially like the one up there.
A friend of mine ran 13.1 with his stock b16a boosting 10psi...
So yea lets not hate, we're all car enthusiasts :)
gotta lose the gay fenders and lights then itll be better

nothign new. swap in a K20A and turbo it..and thats the lastest craze
K20A in a civic hb is a crazy swap like a RB into a 240
both swaps need new custom mounts

that's just discoloration from heat. any polished (maybe chrome or stainless, i don't remember)manifold will do that. it is pretty nice though, full mandrel bends, not pieced together elbows like most of the stuff for our cars.

I just watched Fast and the Furious for shits and giggles. Now I want a civic hahaha.
I'm sure that feeling will pass once I look out the window and take a look at the S14.
OK, all gone.... hehe.
Still, nice car.

and u drive a stock 240, and a ranger?
MakotoS13
06-04-2004, 05:23 PM
yeah, so? you think that has something to do with high performance and FWD being on opposite ends of the universe? the car is a civic, it has 4 doors, it has FWD, and for those reasons i call it queer. dissagree? great, big effin deal.
stickin feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken.

never said my cars were faster, the comparison wasn't even a part of this discussion until you suggested it, genius. it's a four door econobox that i feel looks like crap. last time i checked that was legal. since when is this forum only for people that have affectionate commentary?
it's a civic, it will always be a civic, and that will never change. due to the aforementioned reasons i feel it to be a piece of crap... get over it.

i kinda actually like this civic... (and i'm not a big fan of them myself) , but it seems like he put alot of work into it. thats what counts, and the motor is quite impressive.
just be grateful its not another ricer with a large terminator wing. (although i do think it'll look better if he gets rid of those fenders)

i would love to know why you justify a civic as a peice of crap....And you think a neon is good!!!!! Why do you think civics that are 15 years old dont sell under 1500$ with 350000+ miles on them? and dont say becasue of the import scene, becasue thats maybe 3% of the market, Civics, and any other honda in general, are excellent cars. Motors are way overbuilt, the trannys are way over built, hell there diffs. are way overbuilt, the cars are excellent peices of machinery. You are just stuck on the fact that it happened to be what alot of high schoolers got when they got there license so thy put these big wings and fart cans and stickers that were glorified in The Fast and The Furious.
get over your stupid ricer accusations, and face the truth, you may not like the car, but they are not peices of junk, crap, shit, bile, whatever you want to say....

c'mon its just like a "hey i just got my sr swap" post stop bashin on hondas. Anyways good swap he got there minus the car its in.

i never said that civics were unreliable or crappily engineered. i said i did not like them and feel them to be pieces of crap. sure, you could make em look different, make em RWD, and give em a better interior but by then you'd have replaced the car. i see more about the car that i hate than i like, thus, it sucks to me.
i find it quite ironic that you guys blindly think i should accept it as something more than a waste of time while telling me that i'm ignorant for having my opinion that it sucks. get the point.

but calling it crap, tends to refer to quality, say i dont like it, dont call it a peice of junk, becasue chances are its run longer than both of your vehicles!

well perhaps you should understand what i'm referencing. when i see a modded civic i see a waste of time and a piece of crap. this convo is goin nowhere, im out.
brianglawson
06-07-2004, 02:28 PM
a waste of time, i would love for you to justify why 400 streetable WHP is a waste of time, you need to learn to respect others admirations

Because according to our man here, performance cars with lots and lots of compromises for streetability, cost, and mass production are okay, as long as one compromise out of many isn't a lack of powered rear wheels.
Seriously... unless you're building a Formula One race car, you really have no leg to stand on when you say building any particular street car is a "waste of time". We all work within the constraints of our budgets, our practical needs, and our knowledge. From there we choose a car that fits our preferences.
We're all building cars with flexible production frames and heavy steel bodies. Our suspension systems are designed as much for low cost and space efficiency as they are for handling. Our fenders are barely wide enough for 9" wide tires. We have four cylinder engines designed more for emissions and economy than power.
FF sure as hell isn't optimal, but neither is all that stuff.
Unless you've got a formula car or sports/racer, you've just got a bucket of compromises.
Props to the Civic, even though I prefer the B-series to the H22, and the cosmetics aren't my taste. It looks a nicely built car, engine-wise.

I like the H22 turbo. What kinda engine management is he running? Did you know he says something about you in the thread?lol

Looks nice, hey crab what part of the detroit area are you from?
West side, but I currently stay in southfield right now. I only know a handfull of 240 owners over here.

Hondata.
And yeah I read that. Funny how most honda owners dont look at 240s as being fast unless it has an rb or a sr with a huge turbo in it. O well, Ill change that once Im finished swaping in my CA. ;)
