I drive a Honda Accord right now...it's more practical than driving the Supra and it's good on gas. I'd never modify it, but there are really nice "JDM" styled hondas out there. They look nice as hell when they're well maintained and DRIVEN (no gay street racing Fast And Furious BS)

But like Deadcell said, anything can be rice so to try and deny that there are ricey civics out there is stupid and to try and say that every civic out there is ricey is stupid. There are good and bad civics, supras, mustangs, corvettes, etc... This is a rediculous argument I think, it's up there with the imports vs domestics one

Big Willie, Im not ever guinna knock the car, just the owner... Know what I mean... Its not the car's fault it has a ten foot wing and blinking purple neon under it...

I have a few good friends here that roll civics... All three are different... One is a full jdm hatch... Another is a boosted street civic... And another is a full blown drag Civic, oh but it has a full interior, so its streetable too...

All three are really clean, all three have different power levels, and all three are owned by guys who had a vision of what they wanted for their cars and made it happen...

There is something that confuses me though about that last car... He gained half a second... But his MPH never went up... 89mph is slow for a 7.6 sec run... So I compared teh two time slips from the Civic that ran @20psi versus the guy that said he ran @10psi...

Similar 60' times... 10psi: 1.7 20psi: 1.9sec...
1/8th mile times... 10psi: 7.65 20psi: 7.63...
1/8th mile traps... 10psi: 89.81 20psi: 98.80...

Something about that trap doesnt seem right... I ran an 8.5 with 330hp and spinning and my trap was 85mph... I guess Im just wondering how a guy running 10psi can run the same time, but slower trap than a guy running similar set up and 20psi more? Just wierd to me... But then again, Im just looking at numbers here, I dont know enough about hondas to make the decernment between the two... Maybe one has a more efficient motor on lower boost? I dunno... Im just rambling... arent I?

Ive seen more video's of the first car. It has an 80 shot. I seen another video where he used the 80 shot against a camero ss and it was some good racing
That answers my question about how it has a low trap and .5 second faster time...
