lol.... yeah because I am willing to bet that both the gold and white hatch combined have less money into them than your car........and what times were they running? my memory is lacking
and lol at arguing an evo against a honda.. its the same thing but is fatter, has a rear diff, and 4 doors ....... your engine sill sits the same way as the "econo honda" but yet yours has nothing on a B series
yup, gold hatch crashed a head, after that was fixed the bottom end seized on the dyno. cheap, yes..fast yes..broken..yes. (no offence to vanyo) My ENGINE is still in one piece running flawlessly.
isnt the white hatch on engine rebuild number 3 also??? i remember it being N/A and blowing up. then after a season it rebuilt and boosted, blew up again...right?? ending up with a sleved block and HUGE turbo...still only in the 10s...i bet that all was cheap. where is that car now?? (im asking because i really dont know).
so between these 2 cars...there are 5 engine rebuilds (or new engines completly), 3 turbo kits, and a couple cages...i could be missing something. with out including the price of the car...id say they got me on this part, unless tufte decided the just give away these things.
yea, civics and evos are totally the same...yea bro. totally identical except for the whole...4 door...awd...factory turbo...torque thingy. but only becasue my engine "sits" the same.
I like how you say my car has "nothing" on hondas, when i havent even made a clean pass on it yet. I dont know about you, but i think for only using 3 gears, while coasting through the traps at 120...is pretty quick.

LOL....... so what is the difference in breaking engines and not the driveline VS. breaking everything but the engine??? good logic there:icon_scratch:
when you are trapping 140 like tufte we will see if your engine is still "running flawlessly" ...perhaps you will be on your 6th T-case by then??
Its still funny because for all the money you have in your car you could have bought an actual car like a c5... sprayed a 150 shot and been faster in ET and trap... and have been cheaper... and not break shit every pass

Now whether or not that same power gets to the ground in a favorable fashion is another story. bottom line being, im not worried about my engine.

proof
and this engine is STILL run 100% with trans/tcase/diff still in tackt.

(with a VA commute, it would happen)
side note- nothing agaist the c5. but i like the c6 a lot more.B) I bought my car, because i wanted awd.
C) I really havent spent that much money on my car. I was spending more while i was going to VIP.

Do I really come off as ignorant as you do?
You were just so darn proud of that "coasting 120mph trap".... so I had to remind you that you are still shy a full 20mph of the "econo box"

Just thought I'd throw this out there:
in 6 years of drag racing the integra I broke the following things:
1 set of ringlands on OEM pistons (nitrous on stock motor)
1 RING GEAR
1 set of JE Pistons (my fault, fucked up the tune.)
0 OEM AXLESFuck those hondas are garbage.

English please??you wanted to compare the the power of 2 hondas, along with the money they payed for it. then failed to acknowlege the amount of time they had spent getting rebuilt.

No you dont, im just an ass.
and then i told you i wouldnt need that extra 20 mph to run a similiar time. then after i told you, i showed you with a friends car.

let me explain the way traffic is like in norther virginia, imagine a 5 lane intersate (i say 5, but its 3, with 2 lanes of HOV)
and all 5 are at a dead stop. thats my commute. 30 miles of it to work and back every day. i would like to see a lsx mpg in that kind of traffic.

because zbrown didnt throw that in there with the 2 bullet proof hatches he praised over.
in the 5 years i spent going to IDR...i saw said integra there maybe 4 times...true racer bro. you should have raced with the clutchmasters integra.
btw, how often did you DD your car? just out of pure curiosity.

How often did I DD my car? I daily drove my car until 2005, at which point I bought another car to DD. If you went to idrags for 5 years every weekend and only saw my car 4 times you must have been blind. Let alone, what does the clutchmasters integra have anything to do with this anyways? Because you're "out east" you must be tight with them I bet right? You and jonathan reynolds and norris probably kick it every weekend.

That is 20,500 by itself, now lets add some more shall we
+A built engine $$$???
super secret CNC'd 33% better than stock heads $$$??
