Honestly though I do like hondas as well. So much fun to drop a better motor into and then go mess around with it since NOBODY would ever see it coming. My fav by far is to keep it stock appearing on the outside but have say, 200 WHP all motor. Makes such a sleeper. I'm not a big turbo fan on a honda but give me an all motor B18 or K series and I'd have some fun with it.

How about I run that Civic in my GTO and we'll settle this. I make a lot less than 400whp and weigh a lot more than 3100lbs.
We'll see how fat, ugly and slow GTO's are. I remember a certain Ls1tech member who had a Turbo LS1 Camaro who after racing my near stock GTO left the scene thinking it was supercharged.

And if you can recall, I thought yours was an LS1 with a P1 (more b/c of the way it sounded)... You had a half car on me for a gear and then I freight trained u and you made excuses that there was a car in your way
- I had a vid of the civic racing my car with 100 or so fwhp less than it will have in the coming weeks. The civic held its own better than your GTO 
I'll tell him you want to have a friendly race, maybe it'll get his *** in gear to finish the damn thing!

Half a car for 1 gear...

Looks like Leading from 2, 3, and stopping 5mph into 4th tied.

If you got out of it, ur RPMs would drop, we wouldn't hear ur car revving, and it would have been a much faster pass.
Think I'll nickname you Juiceemall
When did I say its my car we r discussing - the Camaro is all motor and being sold in a couple months lol. Which is another project to put back together that I don't want to deal with. My Dad is planning on buying it, which is awesome. Then he might come out with us once in a while haha

W/e u say dude - you are starting to **** me off.
This all started simply b/c i was giving back what some other GTO owner was dishing. Now the old race was brought up, you being a douchebag simply cuz this kid needs a tune when you are challenging HIM. Not the other way around. I was saying politely and positively that we could do a friendly race and letting you know wat to expect. Instead captain *** hole is here to sarcasm the **** outta my thread. Chill out
