So as many of you know i dislike honda, so i decided i would show you the reason(s) why. im not denying there arnt fast one out there, but my town has a couple mildly quick one and all poser.
Killed this one in my Ranger on the way home from class one day. https://www.miataforumz.com/attachme...ine=1327448657 killed this with the miata at 3psi at the tb, boost leak like an sob. ps it is (was) a gsr https://www.miataforumz.com/attachme...ine=1327448657 he sold it before i had an opportunity to race it https://www.miataforumz.com/attachme...ine=1327448657 https://www.miataforumz.com/attachme...ine=1327448657 |
haha, RICE to the MAX!
I can't deny that Hondas (the cars) are pretty well made. Engines are nice and as much as we make fun of vTak, it is an arguably better VVT setup than the Toyota/Mazda version. I share your sentiment towards many honda owners. |
So your reason behind hating Honda is that you "killed" two of them in a Ranger?
|
I should bring a camera around my highschool parking lot sometime. Like 50% of the cars are shitty old Civics or Integras.
1990's Integras are like Eastern Shore race cars. |

I mean, if a gsr and del slow is still revelant, yeah...
|
hes in the process of boosting the gsr right now, its such a rigged setup. i give it a fe months before it explodes.
|
still.
|
lol tell me about it. i know a guy who keeps his grocery getter looking stock but has an emusa turbo kit in it (ek hatch). its funny to watch.
hondas are serious business in hpde though.. altho one of the instructors at Gingerman spanked most of em hard in a spec neon LOL |
yea, those hondas are beastly. The thing about it is, its a very nice motor and they make good power. And those Integras are double wishbone all around, which leads to great handling. While FWD is a short coming, it can be overcome with some suspension magic and slight adjustment to driving habits.

I can't wait till Feb. 11, when I can get back on track! I dislike hondas as well, and it seems to be for about the same reasons. All of the hondas around here are slow as hell and usually riced out. I cant stand it! That being said, a well setup honda can be an amazing thing. That, and I love me some s2k! |
I have to give it to them that their little econobox transmissions can handle ridiculous power and hold together. If all of their trannies were only good for 190wtq we would have never seen them gain popularity. I'm frankly amazed at how badly some of their cars are abused and keep going. Props where props are due...

Someone told me to look at the k-series and now I hate a little less
|
Little devils are faster than all get out at the track whipping around turns on 3 wheels.

I like my honda. The dash was designed in '96. Still looks better than most cars today.
https://www.miataforumz.com/attachme...ine=1327590809 133K on the clock, still looks new. |
Is there a trans that will bolt to the k and be rwd
|
? that's an H22 and I'd have to rotate the motor first.
|
|
Hahahaha, that is pretty funny.
|
Holy ---- batman. So rice
|
Some Hondas can really go. Last time I was at the track(watching not driving) I seen a young guy in a Civic spank a 35ish year old guy in a 911.
He actually got the best lap time of the day. Ahead of a BMW Z4 M, SVT Mustang with slicks and alot of other great cars. My hat went off to him. Real cool guy too. |

You'll find it's not All about the car it's who's driving that makes the most difference. I get spanked all the time at autocross by a guy in a bone stock one. He's one hell of a driver
I still have respect for both him and his car though. |
these cars were built at a local shop.. i know the owners. sooooo, that being said. the civic is a tin can. if you got hit while in it on the street, you would die. everything was cut and gutted. DIY build on it but super quick. The viper was modded and running a drag radial. All interior car, not cut and had a small stereo as well. At the end of the day the Viper was mint, the civic was a shitbox. I can respect it being fast at the track but thats where the respect stops. |
The reason I like Hondas:

There are the real nice ones and then there are the faggy rice ones. 500hp civic hatch is cool, especially when clean. 180 hp civic with altezzas and cut springs is just that much cooler though :bang: |
@ hustler its quick but damn it sounds like ----.
@ rick thats kinda my point. |
It sounded like a race car that wins. I like that sound.
|
Honda's are cheap entry level cars now, maybe were probably modded in the early 2000's when it was cool to do so, now they are all beat to ----...
There are still some nice ones, my buddy here has the cleanest DA I've seen and he tracks the hell out of it, so he's keeping it alive IMO. We all know how most of them are though... https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-1...0/DSC_0477.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-3...2/DSC_0534.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-R...0/DSC_0563.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-g...2/DSC_0095.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-8...2/DSC_0101.jpg |
I was sitting at a redlight making a lefthand turn the other day when a newer, I think 2007 civic, drove by. He was doing like 20mph and he revved his car to redline soon as he saw me. Which kinda startled me cause I wasn't paying attention at all. It had some fart cannon on it. I happen to look over as he revved it again and saw him engage the clutch too fast and the car lurched foreword, then back, then foreword, then back, his head practically bounced off his steering wheel. I loled sooo hard.
