Default To those who doubted, and for those who supported. RWD Civic on the way...

**Sorry about the pictures having shrank.. I've exceded my bandwidth in less than 24hr's. Ill have em back up with more updates in a day or two. Well major updates weekly or Bi-weekly...**

About a month ago I asked a simple question....
Who makes a 350 mount kit for an eg civic? I got replied back a bunch of BS. Some positive resposnes and a few people just interested. Then some genius(he really is guys) locked my thread. So heres the updated pictures of the civic. Another one of me and Gambits (along with the rest of GG inc) projects...

link to locked thread: (Bauley Civic and I have resolved our issues. Hes a great standing guy!!!)
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1016957

And the pictures....(*Pictures are now back up from our temporary site set-up*)

Somone elses trash becomes our Treasure (Friend of mine wrecked his hybrid and sold it to me totaled)




In the 1st stage of build-up






The sleeper shot (not really but you guys get it)


The Car as it sits today-


Front end is now gone-


Mock up cage is mostly in-


Thanks for looking...updates in a few weeks, Mobility Dept is getting busy, and I think people in wheelchairs are a little more important then our February Deadlines.

In the red circle, you should have moved the stabilizer bar of the X-brace to intersect right where the vertical bar and the horizontal bar of the cage meet up.

In the green circle I would have avoided using a bend, as well as lined up the front extension and the top of the main hoop.

Short wheelbase + big motor = scary ride.

Would not be my first choice for a drag car at all, that is going to be a bitch to handle. Good luck.

Exactly what I was thinking. No traction and unstable.

But props for trying something different.

acutally it has been done before, but not to this magnitude. Were aiming for around 1600+ hp and low 7's to mid 6's.
