                  i understand what your saying, but like i said i prefer what i prefer. nothing wrong with that.

                  lol at matt, like im some v8 humping mullet head. ive had 2 v6 cars, 2 dsms, 2 mustangs, a gto, 2 T/As, the v8 GN, and im bringing home another 6 cyl import this month. Oh, and ive never said this out loud, but i had a civic at one time, thats right. it was a black EF hatch with a B16, perfect paint, a CF lip, full tint, on 17" rims and 2" drop, so get over your honda loving bullshit. No one really gives a shit about your opinion that a "fwd b16 will smoke a v8 rx7" cause guess what, most of them actually handle better than stock since a little tq gives it some weight transfer. they generally have higher exit speeds and will pull huge lengths on the straights. "OMG a civic is only 2k lbs!!" yeah and it has 150hp, zacs car is 2600lbs and has a solid 500hp, do the math and open your eyes to something other than your tunnel vision honda bullshit

                  I Said for that last fucking time, that "MOST" v8 swaped rx7's thats i have **SEEN **don't look like they would handle well around a corner. Now what can't you understand about that statment, i never mentioned every one ever made, i said most, as there just big huge engine in a striped rx7.

                  Yeah i said 500hp to 500hp um a civic with it's lighter weight doesn't need the torque of a v8. thats what i said. thats it.

                  Gary your seriously getting butt hurt because i like honda's . really dude you have used everyone of my posts out of context this whole time.

                  BTW, your avatar makes me laugh, how soon is "Coming Soon"? Its been what 3-4 years now will it be 4 more? is that soon or am i confused

                  i'm not the one with my car up for sale on ebay. Gary why can't you just argu your point without the insults? sense when is there a dead line on long term projects huh? i make sure to check in with you next time, i would hate to do it wrong....:icon_scratch:

                    What is it with people reading out of context today.....

                    i doubt a civic could hold it's own to a rx7 that is that built. i mean everyone knows rwd is better then fwd in the end for handling.

                    but there are times a civic will surprise alot of people. but like i said zac v8 rx7's that i have** SEEN** don't look like they would do well around a track.

                    here is a quick little civic and it is only on 8 psi and 260 hp.

                      that is the only thing i was looking to hear

                      granted FWD stuff does surprise people, me included............. i was just making a point thata v8 swap into an rx7 is far from pointless

                      and that a rwd platform does have more potential than a fwd one

                        Nothing wrong with that at all, just dont push your beleifs on everyone in every thread

                        Right, you realize that all parker has to do is put 17s and good tires on his and it will out auto-x most cars in the area right? im sure thats the huge v8 powered one you think wont handle

                        Yeah i said 500hp to 500hp um a civic with it's lighter weight doesn't need the torque of a v8. thats what i said. thats it.

                        But you seem to insist that it will be faster than a similarly weighted car that has double the tq?

                        Gary your seriously getting butt hurt because i like honda's . really dude you have used everyone of my posts out of context this whole time.

                        I dont give a shit what you like, but every thread seems to turn into you preaching about how some swapped civic is the hot shit over anything else! Its still a piece of shit civic, just like if i said a (as in one, if there is one out there) swapped cavalier that was fast and handled good was faster than a NSX, its still a POS cavalier so why bring it up all the time like a dumbass

                        i'm not the one with my car up for sale on ebay. Gary why can't you just argu your point without the insults? sense when is there a dead line on long term projects huh? i make sure to check in with you next time, i would hate to do it wrong....:icon_scratch:

                        SO, its wrong for me to sell a car that is complete to move on to another project to work on? If you ever finished anything you might realize you can sell them for a profit. You dont need to check in with me. You cant do something wrong when your never going to get it done in the first place

                            and why loose the wing when it is actually serving a true point?

                              for racing yes, i can see keeping the wing. But why flat army green? there are alot of other color options if your going for that retro army look. that front end could use some luvin too.
