maybe when RSX/Si/Type-R swaps start happening, then we'll start seeing streetable 10/11/12 second 2k1 civics.
if you are that anxious to run low 12's or better, sell your car, get a 92-95 civic vx hatch, b18c1, built internals, Drag Gen 3 turbo, fuel mods, upgraded ignition.....you should have absolutely no problem killing him.


hybrid hate to shoot your idea down and all but how is he gonna get the power to the ground he needs to upgrade the suspension also or he will just spin tires all day and if you wanna do that my friend its gonna cost you in the neighborhood of 10-12 g's considering car used w/ high milage for lowe rprice around 4,000,drag kits are another 3,500 gsr power plant another 3,000 for full swap thats 11,000 there and maybe your into the 13.5 range internals including labor is another 3,000 or so thats 14,000 and throw in the suspension and 1,500 your looking at the neghborhood of 15,000 if you can do most work on your own and get the stuff for a fair price. all in all it comes down to are you willing to spend all that to shut one guy up cause you need some DEEP pockets. I almost fogot to mention i've looked up these prices to many times but i think i off on the engine but im not sure also w/ that setup tuned right you will be looking at low 12's high 11's if your a good driverbut hell if you got the money keep us updated!
