    Default Ok i just need help

    I plan on buying a Hatch or a Crx and throwing a B16 in it and boosting it.

    I only have $5500 and i want my ride quality to be nice too(suspension and tires) because this will be my daily driver too

    I need suggestions on what to do. I'm new to this.

    What im aiming for is acceleration from 0 to 60 and 60 to 120..just all around fast acceleration.

    would a b18 swap be better?

    i just need help please...

    Buy a bike. CRX & hatches can be great handling and fast cars but I'll never want to be going 150-160mph in either one!

    Size, lack of aerodynamics, weight are just a few reasons. Im assuming you've never been anywhere near that fast in a car! I've had my EF hatch to 125-130mph and it was much faster than I felt comfortable doing in the car, felt very floaty at those speeds. You'd have to be insane to drive 150-160 mph.

    There is absolutely no reason for you to go 150mph on the street, and I doubt that you would be able to control the car adequately at that speed.

    i've been to about 115-120 in my sol and i wanted to cry... older hondas arent meant to go extreme rates of speed... they become extremely unstable and they're loud as ballz and i cant think of a tranny that would allow it

    Now you just sound like a ricer. If you are going to try and go 150+mph on public roads, then no one here should give you any advice in killing innocent people Seriously take that sh!t to the track

    Have you ever even been at 150-160 mph?
    Cause you just don't come off as a very smart guy talking going those speeds in a Honda and on the street.

    QD is gonna get in this thread and rip you a new one.

    go skydiving and you reach those speeds easily. but if you so desire to go that fast then get a car that was designed to travel at a high rate of speed, not an econobox.

    The fastest i went was 120-130 in my rsx-s. And even with the rsx-s not being a really light car, i still felt like my car was going to take off and start flying. And i dont want to mention my 99 teggy. With the teggy, when i went aroun 100, i would be scared to go any faster. You could just hit the wind hitting my car and making lod noises like if hurricane was comming.

    Here is an idea of what u should do. Built a time machine, go back in the past where u was about to make this topic, and stop your self.

    it depends, sometimes you gotta show em whos boss. Sometimes you just gotta chill when you drive, and look good in your ride oh and cars can be a hobby :P

    and also when you find those curvy roads where barely anybody drives on, its fun to test your limits i guess you could say
