i have respect for the jdm tunners to be honest..... but lets face it... its like 10% of all tuned civics the rest are plain crap...

"well today when i left school i was pretty much being followed by another student from school. He drives i think a 97 civic that has euro lights..a dragon decal on it...and a huge gauge on his dash..oh and also a tiny bottle of (nitrous? lol) on the front left side of his window, but anyways

he had his girlfriend in the car today and drove past me and revved so i just let him do it and pass me at first. then at the next light i just took off on him. he couldnt even keep up.
he looked pretty mad and his girlfriend was laughing at him.

i know this is nothing to brag about but i just thought it was funny because it was my first time even racing a civic

oh and i have a 420a lol"

-the real funny thing is they are self-concious about their slow cars...me and my little brother were rolling around town in my TSi when this civic hatch revved me at a red light his car sounded like one big lawn mower..k so the story goes and this guy was like 20 my little 12 yr old brother just started laughing so hard he was in tears and this grown man got all pissed off even before i dusted him he tried to get out of his car and fight my little brother haha those guys and their ricers

 

the civics have learned not to race a dsm, but the swapped civics, turbocharged, and supercharged civics are another story.

 

Had both a boosted honda and a awd 1g talon. Even though the talon ran only3 days a month it was still my favorite car of the two.

But just like any car I have respect for the ones that are built "Right".

It is pretty funny rolling up in an open downpiped turbohatch next to a hot rod wannabe in his custom body kit vynaled up car.
