    Like I stated earlier, I'm well known in the local car community, but none of the car guys I hang around have a modded Civic.

    Example: get a Z06, put a 150 shot on it, and you have a low 10 second car that can be driven right, left, to the track, pass emissions, last almost forever, and a woman will get into that car. One of my Z06s will run 12 flat stock and the other one will run low 11's on street tires, and women jump into them. FTR, those cars are just two that I have in my collection, but are good examples of straight line acceleration that were meant to be that fast.

    Describe the women that wanna ride in a Civic...much less one that goes that fast.
    My stock civic runs 12's and my wife will jump in at any point.. You like the zo6, and I like Honda's.. Do i care what anyone thinks, nope!

    First off, I love Honda, but a Civic is an econo-box. Like I said, it's a family machine, not a drag-car, race-car, or anything of the such. It does get great gas mileage, low-emissions, value, and is great for a starting family. I've owned several Hondas in my lifetime, and still have a Honda street motorcycle.

    I wanna see a stock Civic (not a Si, MAYBE that would get to 15) break 16 seconds in the 1/4 mile.

    And you can make anything fast if you throw enough money at it!

    some of these honda guys may be assholes online, and in person, but if you meet me in person you would never believe I post as "1civic"... LOL

    I was drawn to the Honda because i'm a smaller guy, it fit's me! Since I was younger (15) I have built a number of them.. Never really had much money invested into any of them, i just like the simple mods. As I got older I wanted to run with the faster cars, so the swaps began!

    I have owned a 240, ws6, and mustang, but non gave me the joy that my little hatch does!!!

    Money or no money people are hooked on the idea of building something simple, may even be ugly, but it's what they like.

    You're right, you don't sound like the normal Civic guy, which is a really good thing, but that's my opinion.

    "my car is not the norm.. very low key, but a blast to drive.. I do not draw the attention of everyone, but that was the goal.. "Simple and sweet".." that's a good formula. It's hard to go fast on the streets when you look like a race car and sound like one.
