daily driven too!
back at the first honda-tech race!

now it used to have a b18b( which is for sale ) w/ i/h/e/afc ran a 15.30

so in the fall i blew my diff and decided to say **** all that noise and build it into a race car!

my plans are a boosted Z6

here are some pics of the car as it sits

cant wait to throw a sawzaw into the mix

my ghetto rear drag tires
pic of turbo sittin on its motor
and for you mitsu fans my pops car

any comments welcome

enjoy!

 

why not just boost the LS? cool tho that your turning it into a race car, but dang your takin a really nice car and tearing it apart

 

thats what everyones asking ,why not turbo the ls?

first d series parts are cheaper

second cause i wanna do something different

third wouldnt u like to a sohc do 8's ok maybe 9's

o and the car is gonna look even better when im done

Props on your guts to go all out.. but ya. one thing I've learned throughout theis last Decade in the scene is to... Use a Shell rather than a Nice new complete car to turn into a race car.

 

well no one wanted to buy the thing when it was all together so i said the hell with it, plus i didnt have to pay for anything cus i already had it

 

ill give you mad props on 9s in a sohc but ummm you got alot more work to do , and youll need a bigger turbo

 

a bigger turbo????

**** that the first time i heard that most people see mine and say its too big

its a t61 .70 a/r compressor and .84 exhaust!

 

man, what a change this car has gone through. i remember the day u got this car, lol, and now look at it. man this is gonna b 1 beast of a ****** car when ur done, lets c who can top this, lol. goodluck on it, and keep us updated

 

dont worry Rui ill take u for a ride

hehe nice turbo. Whats your goals on it? if you plan to compete in the Street Class, most of these guys are already on a PT66- PT60 turbos

 

Ive never seen someone downgrade motors before for a "drag car".. That car was nice, and now its all cut up.

 

i know its cheaper for a sohc, but you know how much money its going to cost to run with the big boys with a sohc? yes i know bissi is out there doing it and so is zex man but they got a grip of money into there set ups.... i would just think about it befor going to far

 

i wanna see somewheres around 500+whp

that turbo should be good for it no?

i jus wanna make a 9 second D theres enough Bees in the industry

the car isnt cut up yet its just... well unbolted

 

get ready to spend ALOT of money and ummm sorry dude but 500 whp is not going to get you anywhere near 9s, if its a strong motor and your a great driver i can see 10s but ya..

 

There's a movie out called 'Hoop Dreams'...you need to rent that ****.

LOL

Good luck man but I don't see 9's in your future.

 

Im not allowed to disagree with you, or i will be deemed a "Hater" by all the people who cross-hate on me...

ah, **** it, ditch the d series, making 500hp on that motor will be alot harder then doign it on a b series, 2nd of all, if its a racecar, you can get a bigger turbo and a bigger motor. 3rd of all, 9's is alot harder then you make it out to be...

 

truthfully with those horsepower numbers that are expected out of this car, and at the average civic race car weight that he's going to probably weigh in at witch is around 1900 lbs... it is very much so more than posible for this car to make a 9 second pass and trap very well over 140 mph mark.. the only reason why he will probably not do it right away as soon as he brings the car out for the first time is TRACTION... once thats squared away.. we all know its nothing but uphill from there.

 

Its kinda hard to make 500whp ona D-Series...

 

Maybe if he builds the car around hotrod class rules it would run 9's with 500whp but I don't see it doing it without wheelie bars.

Btw Ron your a HATER

bro thats a pretty big turbo man! that turbo well fueled should make the power easily.

 

whats the most hp outta a sohc that any of you guys have seen? my friend was makin 300+ on a built one and that was pretty good i thought...

 

I know of low 500whp with a T4 and 225+nitrous. I have also seen a dyno of 390 or so on a sc61.

 

wow good numbers, i still dont think that 500 whp is going to get 9s..... but thats cool that your going ***** out on a race car

 

wow , you ripped that **** apart . what made you decide to make a race car ? why not just keep it a street car ?
