Title: Kept up with a 98+ Civic
Post by: 90TGP on February 15, 2004, 11:22:00 PM
There was a lowered 98+ Civic HX [107hp] 5-speed 2-door with the EX style spoiler, altezzas, fartcan and wheels next to an older 70s Toyota pick-up. Well I got sick and tired of being behind this slow ass pick-up, so I went around the truck and got behind the Civic.

Well the Civic quickly got over to the next lane. We both got stuck at the light that leads up a hill. I looked over at his car and saw fuzzy dice in his drivers rear quarter window. I was like "huh?"

The light turned green and I left normally. Halfway up the hill the Civic decided he wanted to play once he heard my loud exhaust. Well he floors it next to me and I floor it. We where neck and neck the whole way as we went over the top of the hill. I let off because of the light on the bottom of the hill and just coasted on through. He sped up a little in shame that I kept up with him the whole way.







































Anyway, I was in my dads 1991 Plymouth Acclaim 2.5 4-cylinder with a 3-speed auto with a ground shaking 98hp and 135ft/lbs of torque with my friend in the passanger seat. And you guys thought I was in the TGP! HA!  :lol:

True in some cases, but there are quite a few tasteful/respectable Hondas around here that can hand you your ass(The 11second Civic hatch for one, interior is gutted and whatnot, but it's still street legal). :wink:

Not in my area. There's like one turbo Civic I've seen, and a cool kid with a B16 swapped hatch that runs mid 14s on a good day.

That's cool, we've got quite a few around here and a decent "speed shop" that pretty much specializes in import tuning.  An Integra was for sale from there not too long ago that made ~425 to the wheels with nitrous, I don't remember the numbers it made off nitrous.  Anyways, there are a variety of different setups used on various hondas/acuras around here, I know of at least one supercharged blue Civic SI(he goes to car shows here a great deal), then there are plenty more juiced ones, a few turbocharged ones, etc...

most around here have little punk kids who just got their liscenses and are lucky to run 17's in the quarter.  There are a couple though like you say that are relatively nice but I think they run on Uncle Ben's rather than the cheap store brand rice. :twisted:
