    I sold it last year but at 280whp i was trapping 111mph and 13.2 on street tires, and I sold it for an s2000 which handled pretty good with the nitto nt-05's it had on some rpf1s

    $1,000 worth of mods? That's not too bad at all.

    Ah. Well, wouldn't it almost be better to run something like a ford festiva, older-style beetle or even a mini if you're looking to go super high power/weight ratio?

    well everytime im in my civic and i see someone or see a nice car next to me i give it a lil rev just to say hi. after doing my motor swap and wire tuck i took all things out i didnt need so i said bye to the horn as well so i think thats why i rev it. even though its sad my civic can keep up with my wrx, dont know if thats a good thing or not, i dont think id go up to someone and revbounce the piss out if it to race lol thats just silly

    Wow, a 2000 lb Honduh with a 35R pulls on a stock turbo stage 2 STi. That video shows nothing.

    +1 i have owned an 83' civic (which i will make a sleeper if i ever win the lotto :biggrin:) and a 96' civic. I like the 96 and prior civics. I love the CRX. i know they aren't the best car to mod... but i still love them.

    The point here is some honda drivers don't care what is under your hood,all they care about is to see how they will keep up with your 10grand plus car and smoke you in their 3grand car plus the build.

    How aren't they the best car to mod? They have more aftermarket support than pretty much anything...

    yeah they have a ton of options for mods. but FWD would be the main thing that i would not like about the car.... (well) ..... did not like about the car when i owned two of them. if we want to look at light FWD import cars there are a lot of options out there where a motor swap isn't a must if you are looking to break 10 seconds. just because there might not be as many options for other FWD cars doesn't make them a bad contender against the civic. don't get me wrong i am not saying civics are bad, but i am not going to say they are the best car to mod in the FWD series. I was just stating that i give them more love because i have owned two and they were good cars.

    S2000s are tits. even in stock trim, I love hearing them on the dyno, you just hear them keep winding out like a sprot bike, those hi rev 2.0l are incredible.

    That's funny I've never seen a $3k s2000 before...

    Last time I checked DSM's were the easiest/cheapest thing to make fast.

    The one I looked up on ebay was 200-some thousand, but I'm assuming that was because it's a super secret edition or something?
