Do u really want me posting pics of every cool honda i see on H-T...it'd take up a ton of pages...Cool honda what's that some kind of oxymoron?
No I just was stating the fact that its kind of hard to tell how cool a car is from just one pic, especially from the back like that one.

Well lets see from the pic I can see that it's a JDM 83-87 Civic Si hatch, most likely has the old brown top dohc zc engine in it, of course RHD beings its JDM, and is sitting on 15" Mugen MR5's, which are some pretty baller wheels....so in conclusion its a pretty cool car

I saw a car like that on my lunch today at culvers and it looked pretty cool granted it wasnt RHD or on sweet wheels just steelies, but still i saw it and thought to myself that funny lookin little car has a lot of potential

Why the hell would right hand drive make it any cooler? You could be a mail carrier I suppose. So if I put my steering wheel on the wrong side of my car it would be cooler?

The rhd makes it cool because it's JDM...and it's stuff they never sent over to the states. Honda basically gives us the toned down versions of their cars. For example the CRX SiR in japan had power everything a B16 and glass top, all we got was a sun roof, D16A6 and manual everything....But then again u arent into imports so you probably wouldnt understand....

Who said i'm not into imports? I hate honda's, but there are a lot of imports I like, some i'd even own and drive. I just happen to believe in bang for the buck, i.e. you can make a camaro go 8's for around 10k but could <u>maybe</u> get a honda into the 10's with the same budget. I just don't understand why JDM stuff is cooler, because it comes from japan its somehow cooler. Not at all in my mind. I completely understand that the american market got watered down versions, but I'm sure there are a lot of reasons why.

I can easily get a honda into the 10's for 10k probably even less...many ppl have done it before (i'm sure SLS has less than that into the white hatch), show me a bunch of camaro that run 8's for 10k (including the price of the car)... Hell Bisimoto has a NA SOHC Non-Vtec honda that runs 9's, it's the only all motor import in the 9's on gasoline...

(i'm sure SLS has less than that into the white hatch)I heard from an old timer out at Sabin it's something more like $60-70k. That's that neither here nor there, it's just what he said when me and a couple friends where talking to him.

haha, for the set up in the white hatch there is no more than $10g's, wes you are silly. All it has is a B16 with rods and pistons, an SLS turbo kit, hondata if i remember correctly, wheels and suspension. He was running 10's with an ITR lsd also, so if he upgraded that it would be better. I would say you could build the car for about $6-7k easily.
