Neons' blow and so do SRT-4's, a pathetic pre-packaged wannabe, I bet I could beat one in my Grand Cherokee 4.7L H.O. V8 with intake and exhaust.

I didn't say that that makes your car go faster, however it will be cheaper to do that then it will be to drop a new engine in, which will be exactly what I do after I do slap some rims on it and lower it.

"Guarantee" and "no" put together equals "never".

Read my sig, then think again. If gearheads accomplished a 9-second Hyundai 5 years ago, and street-legal Civics running 9's exist nowadays, I am sure a 9 second, street-legal NSX today is possible, if not already done. It's just that, most NSX owners are hardly ever singular about straight-line speed.

You will notice that a lot of owner's most expenisive mods are usually suspension mods.

Re: I beat a Neon...

Do you have any proof of these 9 second 50 STATE STREET LEGAL civics?

Not intending to doubt you, but that sounds like it would make it very hard to smog them as well as register them in Cali.

Re: I beat a Neon...

Ok for all you Honda guys who say you can beat SRT-4's please post your timeslips, otherwise dont say anything.

I hate them to pieces but they are fast for what they are. I would never own one, EVER, but from what you guys are saying you can run mid to hi 14's in your cars.

Here's one:


That car was featured in Hot Compacts and Imports, and that "725 HP" the cover shows is to the wheels. That car is absolutely street-legal in California, which means it is legal to the rest of the country, which isn't as strict as California. Try to find the article if you can.

Here's another one: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=645230

That's an old thread, and the actual shots of the dyno-graph, where the Civic put 712wHP have been taken-down, apparently. At first, it was only running 11's, while fighting traction. I believe they got it all sorted-out finally, and got it to where it's supposed to be, deep in the 10's and 9's.

Lastly, here's some low 10-second Civics in here: http://www.cardoctorperformance.com/racecars.html

Don't forget, where it says "street" in it's class, that means it's a street-legal car. The list also includes Jason Hunt's 9-second CRX, which runs it's passes with a full-interior, and a sound-system.

There's also a lot of underground cars out there that are as fast, if not faster than these cars.

I've heard stories from some F-Body owners themselves about how their 11 or 10-second cars got hustled by some guy with a Civic.

Trust me, I don't talk out of my ass, like some people.

Re: I beat a Neon...

BTW, here's a short list of cars and times. A lot of these cars are street-legal, including the fastest ones: http://www.fastestfwdstreetcars.com/...ion%20page.htm
