did anyone ever took their eg cx to the track with the cx engine? i'm curious to know about what they'ed run. i'd really like to know, but i kind of doubt anyone has done it due to the embaressment factor I'm not embaressed, i just never got time to do it before my swap, i wanted to compare before and after

VERY SLOW lol lets see i have a cx hatch with a d16z6 and i ran a 15.3 so take away like 55 hp lol probly like a 18 or 19 they would kick you out for wasting time lol

 

you could try here but i doubt anyone would post it up...

i already looked there, and i searched, nada. I Really wanted to take mine to the track, i wish i'd gotten a chance to, i figured if i gutted the interior I may have been able to get down in the high 19's

 

I'll run you in my grandma's 82 astro van

 

1992 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - 0-60: 9.1 1/4 mile: 17.5

...this was sourced from a listing of various car performance specs, you can search yahoo or google and find it for yourself to see any other ones.

 

1992 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - 0-60: 9.1 1/4 mile: 17.5
that was done with a perfect driver 8 valve motors dont cut it

 

I suppose i should have qualified that with "This is as fast as they can go in the 1/4 and 0-60 stock..." as variables are numerous and driver experience is a major factor. Those #'s i put were i guess what was gathered as the "best" so to speak for a stock 1992 Honda Civic CX hatchback.

 

i would put money on the fact that NOBODY could get my car into the 17's with the old motor, i've done a lot of racing and i'm a good driver, i did a 14.9 in my 01 cavalier with bolt ons, and i was seriously thinking 19's or 20's for that thing, granted its 10 years old but i don't think age was a factor in its turtle like slowness

 

Who knows...some cars are faster than others right off the showroom floor, over time cars take a beating and progressively get worse and worse as far as mechanical shape goes...i was just posting what was listed, you asked and i supplied, if you doubt it...go do some research, find something that fits your "realistic expectations" better, i dont have a civic, dont want a civic and wont ever own a civic for racing purposes in the future...i just happened to have a 0-60 and 1/4 resource at my disposal and posted the findings. Take it or leave it.

 

my comments were not directed at you, somebody is awfully defensive

 

just drop in a z6 or a y8 and you'll be in the 15's easy. Not too much $ for the amount of improvement you'll see.

yea that is what i have a z6 and i ran 15.3 with a bad clutch and bad tires

 

I saw an Ek cx ran at 18.2, but then again that was an ek not an eg. Also my dying vx motor ran a 17.6 with a full cat-back, dx header, coilover, and shitty tires.

 

cx motors are too slow ! 17.5 i heard was the best time ! haha

 

damn, 19-20 secs.. thats why i'm glad i added an extra 100 HP

read the post, i DID a swap, i no longer have that POS motor. and if i was swapping, i'd stay FAR away from d series, 15's easy? so what, 15's = slow. it needs to do 13's before you can consider it to be worth anything, but thats just my opinion

thanks, just what i was looking for although honestly, i think yours was faster than mine, but on the other hand, i raced this other guy in a cx twice and womped him both times, which was really funny, because it didn't look like we were racing, it just looked like 2 cars going down the highway, i laughed. but his might have been particularly bad
