Those pics up above look like a ton of fun. I too have been checking in on this every couple months. I'm going to have to go back now and read the past 10 pages.

SWEET !!... reminds me of the MONSTER FORD FOCUS swap... 5.0 swap into a Focus... but this one is better and not BACKED BY FORD MOTOR CO... LOL

You guys are the next Chip FOOSEs.... without the insanely deep posckets...

oh BTW... I will guess... a traction limit 1/4 time of... 11.8@ 118

GOOD JOB FELLAS !!!

Probably around 2700 without a driver.

Lotus Exige: 190 HP @ 2000 pounds = 10.52 pounds per HP
Civette: 380 HP @ 2700 pounds = 7.10 pounds per HP
Corvette z06: 500 HP @ 3132 = 6.2 pounds per HP

In other words, this could be an 11 second NA civic...

I can't stand HONDA's but your ride is sick!!! I mean it has an LS1 in it....

Good job shutting alot of hater's on here and backing up your goal with the car. Hilarious you put those emblems on but it looks coo still
