I love how half the people ripping this honda would probably get stomped by about a 2 second margin by it in the 1/4.

:stupid: 13s aint too shabby at all... I personally find my **** to be more attractive than his car, but i respect the numbers

Yeah, his car would smoke mine, probably by a 1 second margin. But it makes me feel better knowing if I put half the money he has in that, into my car, it would probably run 11s.
 
Why are the fenders dented in? Why a cowl hood on a freaking honda? I'd be willing to bet my old station would have kicked that things butt 100x in any race! It was an 1989 Old's Cutlass wagon with a 3.3L V6, when I drove that thing around, not one honda was able to pass me on the right. :lol:

Other than that, if that's his thing and he did all the work himself, kudos to him for accomplishing his goals, that alone deserves respect though.
 
hmmm I retract my statement about the old's... he would kill me in a race even in my Mustang (for now)... Didn't know he was in the 13's... Still the body kit isn't my style, I prefer clean - all business kind of look.

The fenders are "dented" in right after the tires because 'the heat from the brakes needs a quick way out' I called bs on that from him.

Motor work: I'm not sure on all the specs and what not, but I know he has a different and ported head, with port matched intake. His cams are a bit bigger, with all the cam gears or whatever. I believe it's a 2.2L
 
Haha funny that it IS faster than most of the cars that post regularly in here! Made my night with that one!!!

I actually like the car now. Would have done it differently (stock body, lowered with some stock wheels off a newer one maybe) but hey style is all personal and he enjoys it. Cant knock how fast it is...

And on the 50 shot he would probably give my car a decent run (and thats with me on slicks and him probably on radials)! Good day for a 4 door wagon!

I wouldn't mind it is much if it didn't have all that dumb body work. And there is no way that thing is faster than my car.

If you would just sit down, read what the Japanese have done as far as head work... you'd believe it :nice:

It doesn't fit my needs, but it's cool for what it is :shrug:
 
Yeah I never said it was slow, but come on it is way overdone. I don't have anything against imports either. I think someone already said it, if there were no ground effects, HOOD SCOOPS, or anything else, I wouldn't mind it. When a car looks the way that thing does, it doesn't fall into the "sleeper" category.
