FINALLY finished Civic

Finally got my Civic project complete.

The car has JDM K20A from the RSX Type R and a bunch of misc mods. Im taking it to the track on Nov 12. With the current power, it should run mid 11s. Im pretty excited. Here are some pics

Why does the car have California plates? Aren't you in NJ?

Dude, I don't blame you for running away from here.

Man, you really do have a little sleeper, save for the carbon fiber hood. If I had my old Civic around and some real cash, I'd ask you for some advice.

Nice ride... If it's not fast enough, find one of the TC or SC available for the RSX engine and you will be set.

This car is much much lighter than the TC. This civic was a bottom of the line dump DX model. I wanted to start with the lightest possible car. The thing really hauls ass on the freeway. Biggest problem now is wheel spin. I can say that it gives my mr2 a good run thats for sure.

No I'm talking about turbocharger and supercharger not the TC.

Ah, lol. yeah, i thought about that but its an extremely high compression motor (11.8). Its definately got the power without the turbo lag. I may try and lower compression and set it up for forced induction later on, but im having traction problems as it is if im not careful. We weighed the car w/o driver and it was around 2250lbs. Good power to weight ratio considering the motor is putting out over 300bhp.

Nice!!! I vote for keeping it NA... immediate power on tap and usually more reliable with no worries about heat. Just pushing it as hard as u can. I'd be interested to see how it does at an autocross or track day (if that's ur thing). Loving those seats too....
