HELLO EVERYONE IM NEW TO THE FORUM BUT NOT TO WORKING ON HONDAS..I HAVE DECIDED TO MAKE MY 92 CIVIC HATCH IN TO A DRAG CAR..I PLAN ON RUNNING THE CAR ON A 1/8 TRACK SEEING HOW THE CLOSEST 1/4 IS ABOUT 3 HOURS AWAY..I PLAN ON DOING A TURBO SETUP BUT WITH A
B18B MOTOR AN GSR TRANNY..MY GOAL IS TO RUN HIGH 7'S MID 6'S..THIS IS MY FIRST TIME BUILDING A FULL OUT DRAG CAR AN WOULD LIKE SOME ADVICE FROM YOU GUY AN WHAT WOULD BE A GOOD SETUP TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN AN REMEMBER THIS IS FOR A 1/8TH MILE TRACK

 

start reading, a single thread asking how to go fast wont help you much.

 

OK I WAS MAINLY JUST WANTING TO KNOW WHAT PARTS WOULD BE BEST FOR WHAT IM WANTING TO DO AN ANY OPINIONS.

 

Stop with the cap lock "on".

That means your yelling at someone.

Can you do some of the work yourself ?

Do you have a good set of tools and floor jack and jackstands ?

Remember safety first. If this is your first time doing this, walk into the HP. With HP comes speed, the faster you go the quicker bad things happen.

Everything you want to know is on here. just read. make a list of things you think you need, put a price with each item.

Then figure out if you have enough money.

Second rule, you never have enough money.

 

I mainly race at the 1/8th mile track. Its all about the 60ft and 330ft time in 1/8th mile racing. Concentrate on suspension and get some 24.5 slicks.

 

 

This is where I would start, take shell and strip it clean.
Weld in a certified cage for faster than you think you will be going.
Then strip the car of things that aren't used for the motor to run. (down to the wiring)

Meanwhile do some research and check back AFTER you have done those things.

 

sry for the caps lock on...i was useing my computer at work an it stays on an i forgot to turn it off....an i already have 24.5 slicks on a set of lensos an i just got d2 suspention..the car is gutted the only thing left in the car is a driver seat an dash..and im going threw all the wirering now

 

Yep, a good cage is next.

Are you going all-motor or turbo ?

 

im going to turbo it and im not going to get a cheap *** kit off of ebay im going to save my money an get the real stuff...some ppl have told me to get the full-race kit an others have told me to make my own and get what i want but at the same time i dont want to get the wrong part ether

 

Goeff at Full-Race is good at what he dose. Sometimes you get what you pay for. When you buy his stuff, you get what you pay for.

Let's look at your whole package. What are your goals for a ET ? 10 seconds, 9's or 8's.

What will you be using for fuel management ?

Who will be doing the Tune ?

Is there someone local who you can go to for machine work, or things you can't do yourself?
