Spoon has a couple of crate engines. B16's and B18's if I'm not mistaken. Might as well sell your left kidney though.

gran turismo prides itself in being most realistic, i dont think they would make up a 13k redline spoon civic. they have a few fantasy cars like the nike one, but i dont think the spoon civic is made up. maybe someone has info on this car

I hardly call GT realistic. Being able to bounce off walls & cars to cheat your way to win is not a realistic driving experience. They need to incorporate damage into GT like Forza Motorsports does.

Anyhow 13K redline, better have some serious custom camshafts to make power up that high.

Wow. People have resorted to using video games to build their real cars. Pull yourself away from the damn playstation and go outside for a bit.

It may sound stupid or funny but real cars are actually portrayed properly in a video game simulator...

Sorry, the spoon road race car is what I meant. The spoon ek9 he is referring to is just the ctr with some spoon parts, pretty sure that just has the b16b in it, not even with the stroker kit. So no, that car does not rev that high, but the blue/yellow road race car does

His age explains it all - 17.

Time to turn off the Playstation and experience the real world, children.

F1 engines are 2.4L.

Reading silly magazines is just as dumb as playing silly video games.

They must have like five sets of muffler bearings on the damn thing. I hear they really help w/ high revs and such...... ..... Maybe they also put a couple of those external cylinders on it also...... ...... If you go into the options menu of your car you can also reconfigure your gas and brake pedals so they are swapped(gas is brake-brake is gas), and make it so when you turn your searing wheel left the car turns right and vise versa.... ..... Ok I'm done, I'm not normally a dick like this but couldn't resist. It's a video game bro. Animation. Fake. Not real. Have a nice day
