Project Cyber Civic

Alright ladies and gents. I've decided that we should play this game for the benefit of the whole forum.

Let's Build A Badass Civic

Here's how we will do it. There will be threads that discuss each part of the project and I will list them below as we move forward with the project. First, I will give you the outline of what we have to deal with.

Money: $20,000 (max)

Location: Atlanta, GA

Timeframe: The car must be discussed, planned, and built by March 2002 because a friend wants to purchase the fastest & hottest looking Honda Civic we can build him for $25,000.


Let's do this! I'm sure it will answer many questions and concerns about building up a Civic from nothing, what hp can be made, and what times we can run. I'm sure it will be a great learning experience for everyone.

Part 1: Which Gen? Dec 24 - Jan 6

Part 2: Let's locate one Jan 6 - Jan 13

Part 3: Which motor will be our weapon of choice? Jan 13 - Jan 20

Part 4: N/A or Forced Induction? Jan 20 - Jan 27

Part 5: Get the power to the ground and stop it too Jan 27 - Feb 3

Part 6: Looks matter to everyone! Feb 3 - Feb 29

Part 7: I can't hear you! (stereo) Feb 29 - Mar 15

Part 8: Finishing touches Mar 15 - Mar 22

Part 9: The finished product w/ pics, drawings, and specs Mar 22+

Dang, this is really a good idea! I suggest a 5th gen hatch.
They are reasonably priced compared to newer cars and there is a very large aftermarket selection available for these cars.

BTW:

This project is being used to aid everyone if they have questions about engine swaps, exterior and interior mods, and the whole Honda performance idea all together. Hopefully everyone will help out with this project. The car wont really be built, but we can 'cyber' build it as a team of different people with different perspectives on it. It will also be a great reference for anyone new to the scene to see just how things can go. :sun:

It would be cooler if it were real... but I don't have 20,000 bucks.

its a deadline for us, to try and make it as real life as possible. And if you were gonna build it.. you'd want $5000 profit too.

RR.. don't think I'm using this for myself. I'm only in HS y'know.

Ahh, you had me fooled for a minute. I would straight up do this in a heart beat if I could atleast make a alittle profit for the months of work on it. BTW, You're never too young to extort money :hehe:

Send the motor this way and i'll make that thing fly. FI style

But How will you be sure that he will buy it? I would at least want a 50% deposit...

I still don't get it...if we're not building it, then why even mention it? I'm just a little confused about this whole topic
