haha, I just had a pretty good laugh. Your friend said that hondas are the fastest street cars? hehe, Civics weren't really made for racing...correct me if I'm wrong. But anyways...they have what? 185 hp not stocked...STI has 300 hp stocked...EVO has 271 (US version stocked)...Honda's cant hold that. it's like almost double the power. STI and EVO WERE made for racing...so were the celicas...just not our crappy U.S. versions...heheh I just thought it was funny, and I think hondas suck.
It's always funny when you hear those Civics buzzing (<--civic owners tend to like buzzing mufflers lol). They making so much noise and then you pass them up going 30mph. |

no prob shin,
As for dahoman: NSX S2000 RSX Type-S Civic Si Accord Coupe All fast, maybe not STi fast but fast enough. I know an Si and a Celica GTS (7th gen) are pretty close. I always considered the GTS as a fast street car. As for the comment that Hondas are the fastest street cars, I agree. There are massive amounts of performance upgrades for Hondas back to the mid-80s. Name 5 performance upgrades for the Celica. Exactly. Hondas are the EASIEST made fastest cars on the street. -Ti |

i've decided to do the swap on Jan. i've got all quotes, gonna get the front clip from venus auto and ship it to my mechanic, total comes up to be 3400 (clip, shipping, labor) if nothing needs to be replaced. still deciding on which FMIC to get, thought of getting the Blitz FMIC and custom the piping, you guys think that's possible? i'm still looking through the forum to find as many information as i can to get a better idea on the swap. is there anyone here in NYC that'll be able to help me out? like just come over. look at my 6gc and give me a better understanding on what is gonna happen. sorry if i'm asking too many questions, this is my first swap.... btw, anyone here able to sell me a 6gc.net decal?
