Not a civic

Anyone with money can build a fast racecar. Something to be proud of is building a streetable car that is fast.

agreed^ still a sick car either way

and honduh and soviet. im not in a pissing match of **** being fast or not. Wow the ignorance of people on this site is bewildering. how hard is it to understand im just saying that, in general, people posting honda videos do it in a different manner then other car types. Insted of celebrating a car, the purpose is to celebrate a brand. its like im speaking in quantum theory over here. An education may help the ill fated minds around these parts greatly. I never stated the car was slow or that hondas couldnt be made to be fast or that whole spheel you got into about 25.5 cages wtf? heres a tip... read. its like people have epilepsey when reading completly skipping "my topic i brought up wasn't about" and then reading the rest of the sentence then replying.

Honduh · 08-19-2011, 11:07 AM

I said nothing about going fast. Im simply stated that youre an idiot.

scottsworld717 · 08-19-2011, 12:36 PM

i guess next time i will say here is a fast car lol and not mention its a honda. for all you saying its not a honda your all idiots lol its just a highly modified one

Elliott18t · 08-19-2011, 12:48 PM

here ill change it up.. a 7 sec 16v http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IW4wds9EKw

how about 5 sec? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODXgc...eature=related :P (think this is an 1/8th mile tho)

HickRocket1258 · 08-19-2011, 01:11 PM

Even though I'm not a big Honda fan, not bad.

As JPalm said, it's all about throwing money at a car to build a fast race car to make power. It's another thing to be able to run about the same times over and over again. Not saying neither cars can.

emdot · 08-19-2011, 02:09 PM

nice times . props to Import DPS and their 7 second cars. mad dopee!

JimH · 08-19-2011, 07:38 PM

I'll just leave this right here.... http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/...d.php?t=118018

And no one is saying it's not a Honda or it's not quick. They are saying it's not a Civic. It's a tube chassis. It could be a Honda Insight. It's still just a Honda motor. That's it.

As for DaBomb's point...He is just stating that other make owners don't typically feel they need to defend their model by saying "Civic's will go 6's" (I saw a 7 BTW). He says other make owners leave it at the make.

For instance the link I posted is a perfect example of what he's saying. It's doesn't say in the thread title "Eclipse does 6's". It says "4G63 does 6's". As in a specific motor. Not a hunk of plastic shaped like an eclipse.

You guys crack me up...how is going 7.0 in ANYTHING not respectable or something to be proud of? What does streetability have to do with it? It's a purpose built car. You'd have to say this about all race cars...Titan's Solaras, Rau's Eclipse, etc. Yeah it costs money, but it still takes skills to go down the track consistently...driver, engine builder, tuner, there are lots of key factors. I know several cars out there that keep getting money dumped into them only to keep blowing something up...motor, trans, turbo, etc. It's easy to hate, just don't understand why it's so widespread these days.

scottsworld717 · 08-19-2011, 10:05 PM

this car went 7's on its first trip out to the track and has gone faster with every pass i dont now of any car that has come out as hard and consistent as this car car. i really cant belive you guys are so upset that i said a civic went 6's like really you all are that big of haters come on

SpEcRv9 · 08-19-2011, 10:39 PM

Purpose built drag cars are unimpressive to me in the overall scheme of things..

Yeah they're quarter times are insane and they run anywhere from 200-300mph which is impressive and I can appreciate that..but they're supposed to...they're purpose built for max speed in 1320 feet.

I'm more impressed cars that might run 8s and 9s but still are "streetable" to a certain degree.

DPancoast · 08-19-2011, 11:32 PM

One car that always impresses me more than cars like this ever will is the 8 second AMS Alpha 12 GT-R

Still has ac and all the comforts and is very streetable.

Don't get me wrong. Cool video, but I agree with spec9

Proven · 08-19-2011, 11:44 PM

Reason Honda guys post fast Civic's / Teg's is to remind the idiots that think Honda's can't be fast that they can be.

This IS a Civic, a very modified Civic made RWD. If it was a full tube chassis with full fiber glass body I'd have to say its just Honda powered.

Not a civic. Glass body. It's Honda powered.

Bingo

Honduh · 08-20-2011, 12:40 AM

I dont think these guys realize what it takes to drop 2 seconds to get a car into the 6 sec. territory. If you can't respect that, than you are very ignorant.

I thought it was just a glass front end.. The whole bodies glass? If so its pushing that "only honda powered" feel. It does look to have a Civic chassis besides in front of the strut towers.

Regardless, its running just as fast if not faster as similar set ups running 2-3 times the displacement and FI.

GO HONDA!!

scottsworld717 · 08-20-2011, 10:23 AM

yea its just a fiberglass front end, honda tuning magazine was at the shop last night doing a photo shoot so i guess its really not a honda lol
