Buddy has a mid 90s hatch w with a k20/turbo/IC and ran a 6.8 on slicks. I know nothing about the car other than the motor, turbo, an cooler and it looks absolutely stupid retarded with FWD Slicks sticking out of the side
Anyways, its still a 6.80 car which I can't touch right now. But I know he said he was stocking up on axles this winter to prep for this upcoming track season
EDIT: That's 1/8 mile time. He won't give me his MPH, but just said "there's alot left in her", implying the ET wouldn't match the trap speed and the car needs the 1/4 to show its true numbersLast edited by MrMasterCraft; 02-10-2010 at 02:51 PM.

Theres the problem
Never seen a Honda run anything close to those kinds of times at the track. The amount of money it takes to get a FWD economy car to go that fast is ridiculous. Most of the 14 and 15 second ones I see come apart before the end of the track, nevermind 11's.
The bottom line is if you want to go fast, you don't buy a Honda. I don't need to tell you that though, you already know.

Please keep us updated...its only a matter of time. Open deck, 2 bolt, high compression engines don't tend to like boost all that much. Especially Hondas. They are economy car motors, built as cheaply as possible. Although the K20 does have a timing chain, which is an improvement over their older engines.

It's quite apparent you are ignorant and cannot see reason. I know what I'm talking about. I know what it takes for an import to be fast. You don't. So, please do everyone a favor and keep your ignorance to yourself.

Of course superluminal chimes in, any import ever mentioned on these boards and he will jump in claiming he has a friend with the same car that they invested $25 into and filled it up with gas, now it runs 10s. Why's he talking about hondas? Arent celicas toyotas? either way it's slow. I beat one in my pile of shit 91 RS that had a 305. aanddd it was the top model celica I think GTS or some shit.

Wheres the false information? This race hasn't even taken place. You're like a broken record with this honda propoganda.. Am I right a celica is a toyota? yet you make this another honda thread.

If this dumbass with the celica challenged the OP on facebook, then put up a wager of $500, then pussed out... and now is avoiding the race all together. What makes you think he has the funds or know how to make a celica fast?

Personally when im being challenged in any challenge that involves money i do not underestimate the other person. You should always know what they could run with there setup so you know that if you can beat what would be a good time in that car that you will def beat that car if its not properly setup and not running what it should run.

You can blame Wesman for that one. I was simply confirming 160ls1's comment, and he jumped in to state I was a liar. If you've seen our track record, he is the reason for the "broken record syndrome". I won't deny that I enjoy debating with him though. He always has something to say.

You can't tell this guy anything. Every import is a 20 second POS in his opinion. I ran low 14s with an 00 Celica GTS no turbo, SC or nitrous just an intake and full exhaust. I beat 5.0s on a regular basis with it. It would be no match for my camaro though. I think a properly driven GTS with full bolt ons and a 50 shot would give a stock LS1 a pretty good run.

I see. So now its my fault that you come into every thread posting your videos and propoganda about how awesome some piece of shit Honda is and how every import runs 10 seconds
Seriously, give it a rest.

No, thats where you have me all wrong. I don't belive the the crap I see on the internet, I believe what I witness myself. I've seen enough dyno runs, 1/4 mile runs, and street races with various vehicles of various mod levels to have a pretty damn good idea what a car is capable of.
Unlike the import brigade in this forum, I don't spend my workday searching Youtube videos for rare cars that idiots dumped enough money into actually make fast. I know what I see at the track and on the street, and your chances of running into one of these "10 second" imports are about the same as having a piano fall on your head.
