need a good car very bad!

[ice_rr]

guys im badle looking for a car that is fit for me! i want it to have 180+ hp and not to big something like eagl talon! eagle talons are nice but i head lots of shit about there engin and transmision! i was thinking about mustangs but they use too much god damn gas! what other cars have doch engins in them?

180 hp while being reliable? I wouldn't go the Civic route.

Talons work fine when not overboosted too. The second gear on their transmissions only keeps going because people put crazy boost on it.

[ice_rr]

what do you mean when you say boost? does it mean that they add extra shit to the car or do they kick the shit out of the car by going to the max limit of the second gear speed? until the car can handle the speed and dies?

u must not know much about hondas, and dude not to insult you but i would learn alittle more about cars before you go and get behind something that pushes 180 hp

ummm.... boost from the turbo

[ice_rr]

Man hondas are not that good man! yeah true honda prelude is good but all the civics are 120 hp stock and im not talkinga about the sir! im taling about 92 to 95!

[wheel1856]

uhm engine swap! helllloooooo....and you dont even have to go DOHC to get 180. you can get a SOHC d16 there with some turbo. or choose from a b16 or b18 with some intake/exhaust work.

and hondas not reliable! JESUS! What rock are you under!? Come out in the sun, its warm out here! My 92 Honda VX has 236 Thousand + miles on it! All I do is change the oil!

not to mention the aftermarket support for tuning and tweeking your honda! talons dont come close (I know Ive been helping my buddy with his). and mustangs, well, mustangs...(being kind) too heavy, poor handling, expensive, and aftermarket products, while they are plentiful, are a pain, are expensive, and cannot promise the same reliability after install that Honda can.

whew...dont know what happened to me...i hear an inference that Hondas suck and I just see red...sorry

[911GT2]

I don't think Hondas suck. I just think that to get 180hp out of a stock Civic (barring anything short of a JDM B18C transplant) you'll need forced induction. And Hondas generally don't respond well on the reliability front to forced induction.

Don't accuse me of not knowing my shit too

And if you buy a car solely to do an engine swap, why not just buy the car the engine was swapped out of???

Why the hell is this thread in the 92+ civic forum?

[ice_rr]

cuz we knew lots about cars! lol i know engin swap but i want a stock car to have 180 +hp!

glad someone else here thinks the same way I do

[911GT2]

I find GS-R's are too expensive for what you get because of their popular demand.

amen to that! A friend of mine bought a 94 GSR 2 years ago and paid about 8k for it. I was at a car meet this weekend up in sac and there was a guy with a 94 ls and I was talkin to him and he only paid 4k! What a difference!
