Default what do you guys think...

Im thinking about buying a 1994 honda civic cx hatch. the most stricking part about this car is that is has 4g63t swap in it. He has records of it running a 11.7 @ 125mph without a hard launch. Have any of you heard of this kind of swap? he says there is only 3 in existence that hes heard of. any info would be great!

This is one of those things that is basically 'hit or miss'. As most people know the 4G63 isn't nearly as efficient as a DOHC Honda motor, but are quite capable of taking higher boost. You won't find much on H-T about them, which is why I'd say to pass on the offer. Its just a real mess when something goes wrong, and thats just my opinion, so do whatever makes you happy. I've wasted so much money building my H-series, readying it for boost, when I could've had a K20 with about $3000 worht of bolt-ons by now. But, thats's why its called a project. It never really ends. Hope this helps.

I'm thinking this is bogus! I'd like to see pix of it. There would have to have been a lot more money into this car to get the 4g63 to go into the civic.

Lets see some pix!

If you're asking because you don't know, it came out of a Turbo Eclipse...

"Car has low compression and is in need of new rings"
I wouldn't want the car for that fact.
