civette lives!!

[fuzzy849]

what did u get the rear dif out of ??

[Kolton135]

so have you sent a piston through the block yet

[jayfiver]

This is TREASON!!!!!!!

[ChrisCarter1983]

@jayfiver you're right....Corvette's are pure shite....200bhp from a 5.7 litre.....hahaha!!!! Honda make that regularly from a 1.8!!

[Onlinemegastar]

blah blah blah, he was walking away from the car looking behind his where a big block was revving their engine, not this car so stfu and move on ricefanboi's

[IslangHerb]

ok, to all you people saying "waste of an engine, blah blah"... here it goes..

lsX's are bad ass powerplants, period, thats why GM uses them in all their sports cars, which are heavy american cars.. honda's use v4's cuz their cars are light.. now you take a LSX and a 2k lb car.. you have a pretty bad ass car.. and before you talk shit, i own a 1972 chevelle

[K0RRuPT3DK3V1N]

@IslangHerb I like your comment and everything, but v4... really bro?

[B04rD3r4LiFe]

@IslangHerb Honda has never made a v4 genius. Its an inline 4 cylinder. Oh, and just because daddy has a chevelle parked in the garage doesn't mean you own it.

[ChrisCarter1983]

@B04rD3r4LiFe Umm...yes they have, actually...in the VFR motorbikes and the VFs that preceded them....the VFR750 and 800 motors are legendary Honda V4s.

[B04rD3r4LiFe]

@ChrisCarter1983 My mistake. I'm not familiar with motorcylces. They've never produced a V4 for a car, correct?

[ChrisCarter1983]

@B04rD3r4LiFe aye, as far as i know they didn't.

[famalemancop]

WHAT!?O_o a hatchback that doesnt suck dick?

[russianfrederation]

The priceless smiles you don't see from ordinary rice cakes.

[projectmemphiscouch]

atlease it speaks american

[teabagger0687]

how do u want for it

[Dmoney3788]

what a waste of a corvette engine

[formula112967]

@Dmoney3788 Hey, Mr Know-it-All....Anytime you put an LS1 in any car that originally had 90 bwhp, it's called an UPGRADE......Still don't get it?.... O.K., try to think of it this way.....The glass is now half full, not half empty...... For all you know, he pulled the motor from a wrecked Corvette, Camaro, Firebird, or GTO, and saved it from being recycled into a pussy 4 banger like the one you borrow off your mother everyday. Now, isn't that a more refreshing way to look at it?

[Dmoney3788]

@formula112967 bra....why u mad bra...................whai? Any time you take the LS1 out of the corvette, etc. that it was in, you dishonor said sports car in life or in death. I'd rather see a wrecked vette's engine get melted down and made into pussy 4 banger than be used in some shitty asian car.

[ITRIEDEL]

Hey look its a civic thats fast

[coolgames14]

@Dmoney3788 quit sayin u mad brah cause hes right and ur a faggot ;)

[Dmoney3788]

@coolgames14 ...and another corvette waster

[wwaalltthheerr]

awsome

[foellerd]

holly crap. The element of surprise make random stuff like this bad ass

[JDMass617]

Was that Borat in the background? "That's juss nat right"

[gtaspecialist900]

next one should be cr-x srt10

[MrDingbat15]

somethings not rite :S

[johnsellman3]

Those are Corvette wheels those came off the coupe

[dontstreetrace]

I like the comment in the vid (this is not right) its awesome baby.I love the concept 

[DiegoAndHisCamaro]

idiots. also it needs corvette rims and emblems lol

[Coolio56ification]

@DiegoAndHisCamaro Those are Corvette rims. They are from the C5 Base models.

[DiegoAndHisCamaro]

@Coolio56ification hell no i have never seen those butt ugly rims on a corvette? those are cobalt rims?

[Coolio56ification]

@DiegoAndHisCamaro Trust me, go search "Stock C5 wheels".

[DiegoAndHisCamaro]

@Coolio56ification i dont doubt it. i guess the base model rims would be that ugly

[oldschool960]

Well I Have A Civic Powered Corvette...

[garyfisher9]

drug money?????

[alpinetypeR666]

if people dont believe that its this car, watch the guy right before he revs it up, he opens door, and puts his foot on car? how is it not this car?

[OlivierMyre88]

43 people don't like interracial babies.

[integracing86]

oh BTW, this car is now Procharged. and yes it is that car making that noise, I was there for the entire build

[datsunkid73]

wat kind of exhust doest it have

[96infinitii30]

dont know whats worse the dumb ass that put this video up with the tittle or the retards that believe its the car that made that sound

[E5Ridez]

@96infinitii30 theres plenty of videos of this car, even a whole build thread if you search google. its called the Civette, they took a C5 corvette rolling chassis and shortened it about 2 inches then put a civic body on it, the interior of the car has a c5 dash and everything, search it up.

[96infinitii30]

@E5Ridez but thats not this car. its obvious that another car is making the sound. im not sayin its not being done . just not this car

[mageac]

@96infinitii30 or you could watch the rest of the build videos... its indeed an ls1 in a civic

[96infinitii30]

@mageac whatever helps you sleep at night

[mageac]

@96infinitii30 or you can just go ahead and be ignorant, what ever you feel is needed

[96infinitii30]

@mageac like i said to the other guy . im not saying it isnt being done but if you cant tell that is not this car with the v8 making that sound from the video then your the ignorant one. im wondering why a fucking canadian would be proud of a pos honda in the first place?

[mageac]

@96infinitii30 seriously look at the other videos, and she shows the complete build, its not a civic, its a corvette shortened and a civic body stuck on it

look at the other 20 or so videos...

[96infinitii30]

@mageac ok lets try this real slow. that sound is not made by that car. a corvette frame and v8 with a honda body , fine but that sound did not come out of that car !!!!! to each their own but wtf a corvete with a honda body . sounds like someone is ashamed of chevy body or honda motor . which one you think it is ?

[mageac]

@96infinitii30 that's irrelevant, watch the other videos...hell there's a crx with a blown big block in it.... or on it really....

now all together... watch the other videos or try google perhaps?

[96infinitii30]

@mageac like i said before im not saying its not being done but at the time of this video this car did not make that sound . maybe you should try to watch this video yourself .

[cartman350]

@96infinitii30 Ok first of all. The corvette was totaled badly in an accident from a different owner. The guy with the civette works in a shop. The wrecked corvette been sitting at the shop and the insurance didn't come and total out the car so he bought it for dirt cheap. Meanwhile he had a civic shell at his house which he decided to do this project. Don't believe me? Look up civette in the honda-tech forums and maybe you'll understand it more than just assuming it.

[alexrmlc90bp]

lol "hey that's not right"

[azezalo1]

that was not the civic that was making the noise... if it would be possible to actually fit corvette engine knowing it it would not handle the civics body in first place and if they would of rewing it the exhaust would of gave smoke and the car would of shook

[cartman350]

@azezalo1 Look up more videos of the Civette and you'll see it actually is that car making the noise.

[WretchedDrake]

Weight distribution must be horrible

[justrucks]

waste of a good corvette motor? my buddy kyle coulda used it instead to put in his Nova haa

[iTouchHelp100]

its impossible

[RustyShacklefeird]

Ls1 corvette powered civic hatchback? How the Fuck can it be an LS1 and a Corvette at the same time!

[cartman350]

@RustyShacklefeird Simple. It's a corvette chassis with a civic body on it. And if you're asking why. He bought the corvette that was totaled in a wreck and redid the frame and bolted the civic body on it.

[FraAngelico729]

Beef and rice. Tasty!

[MrGarrett1394]

Notice how the driver isn't even in the car when it's supposedly revving? Let's see the engine....

[crzzymnn911]

why a hatch?

[RSR1F3]

@crzzymnn911 Its one of the lightest Chassis avaliable a stock one weighs in around 2200 pounds. Why not a hatch? I have the same hatch with a B series swap and its combination of light weight and High HP make sure I get the jump in just about any race from a dig. Imagine it with a vette motor and RWD...

[crzzymnn911]

@RSR1F3 i personally dont like the look of them. woulda rather gone with a coupe myself but i was just curious.

[vinnie01]

lamborghini wheels?

[Blownpony01]

@vinnie01 c5 wheels

[obbyb1]

Corvette power from a 1.6l block : Done.

Smoke muscle cars daily : Done by 100s of car lengths.

Satisfaction of reading some of the uneducated comments on Youtube : Priceless.

[mtprince09]

Corvette Power in a Civic : Done

Make Civic ricer fanboys as angry as hell : Achieved, by miles

Satisfaction of seeing a civic fanboy angry : Priceless

[tommyaj200]

you make us honda look gay. double exhaust? bad taste bud. civic is good for lips. but you made it look rice.

[wazimoto1229]

i didnt believe it either but thennnn i searched for literally 1 minute and found this vid

watch?v=d2Mc8VQ_IkM&feature=re­lated

awww yeaa

[nags555]

who put a steak in a bowl of rice?

[NIGHTRIDEROZZ]

wow its a V8?

[ItsMrWinters]

@NIGHTRIDEROZZ lol the ls1 is a v8.

[supreme2005]

Notice how everyone looks up and behind the Civic and smiles when the revving happens. Definately not from the Honda. That's another, far more badass vehicle not in the camera's view

[stylinwiley]

@supreme2005 yea me and the owner of this video got into it before about this car.. he had other videos up of it that he the guy at the civic door said on the video twin turbos anyone then reved it and it sound like rice the car had a mat black or black primer finish on it but lower the same same rims and same exhaust...he took it off when i asked him about it and never any video of the motor...

[Treycq]

@supreme2005 Do some checking around, this car exists, and yes, its the one making the noise.

[supreme2005]

@Treycq Why wouldn't they show a video of the engine? Show me proof that this car has an LS1.

[darkblaze176]

@supreme2005 they have videos of it somewhere driving around its RWD!

[ericbhunt]

@supreme2005 wow wel i wonder who would do a five lug conversion on a civic oh and use c5 wheels

[supreme2005]

@ericbhunt OOOOOOOOHHHH whoopie! So it has Corvette wheels. Big fucking deal. So does that mean that every S-10 pickup with Camaro wheels is packing an LS1 also?

[civettels1]

@supreme2005 its a corvette....with a civic body! lol idiots!

[The18Jake]

@supreme2005 give it up, look it up. There's many videos of it running,and going down the strip. It's a difficult task to do to put a v8 into a small car designed for a 2 liter engine,but it isn't impossible. This has a corvette engine. Believe it or not but it's real.

[civettels1]

@supreme2005 lol....i scared a kid that was behind the car and we were laughing at him....research some before u comment!

[Blownpony01]

@supreme2005 nope sorry sir, your completely wrong, there is an ls motor under the hood

[supreme2005]

@Blownpony01 Show me proof...you have none.

[emoney803]

@supreme2005 you want proof ...??? go to the travis in civette vid its the same hatch wit the same exhaust tip ... fucking RAGING...!!!!! lol i didnt believe it either ... but i clicked on that vid which is proof... !!!

[Blownpony01]

@supreme2005 i dont need proof, all i need is my eyes and it being at Import Alliance haha

[feREXtheBLUE]

@supreme2005 maybe you should try google. just type in Civette and maybe youll find this guy's thread on his car.  Definitely from the Honda haha

[anzee93]

@supreme2005 if i get the name right engine is from corvette

[ghettopettingzoo]

@anzee93 it says ls1 so it i would assume a c5 corvette.

[sweetlikeADAM]

@supreme2005 You're an idiot! They're not looking at another car. The sound IS from this Civic, and you're ignorant to think that this powertrain/drivetrain swap has never been done.

[ButtSauceversion1]

@supreme2005 It had an engine swap. Retard.

[notamexican91]

still sounds like rice.

[KLONIME1001]

@notamexican91 u idiot then..

[david08106]

@notamexican91 No this is obviously a V8 sound...

[stylinwiley]

lmao that isnt the civic that by the sound of it is a truck out of site reving up, if it was the civic the TQ from the vet motor would have mad the civic shake and/or rock a little..

[Tramsootru]

@stylinwiley LOL... riiiiight..

[mack1381]

Finally, A Civic that owns..seriously, A Civic with that kind of sound is..unearthly

[exteministen]

its the stock civic engine that makes civic's look bad.. now this is awesome! : D

[elr456]

Yikes, the low weight of a Civic combined with brute American force. That's sick.

[CVPI95]

THE ONLY HONDA THAT DOESNT NEED TO BE CRUSHED

[misterbear1984]

@CVPI95 yup, because that is the only way you can kill a Honda....unlike american cars that fill junk yards faster then fat kids at a free cheeseburger giveaway event... fail > you

[CVPI95]

@misterbear1984 tell me besides gas mileage what is a honda good for... comfertable, smooth ride, sounds good, fast, spaceous, practical. no,no,no,noo,no,no. u gotta pour money into a handa to make it run fast at all my stock cvpi will munch any stock honda

[xAEMxBlankAngels]

@CVPI95 what the fuck is wrong with? crash the piece of shit.

[DragonInfraXtremeRGT]

honda should really make a v8 nsx

[yugoterror]

yeah foreal how is this a digrace when it wud smoke a cvic and a corvette

[yugoterror]

so why is there not a vid posted up of this beast in action?

[ItsMrWinters]

0:12 "something's not right" #LOL

[xNSxTY3]

Funny thing is, everyone's first instinct would be to try and find the corvette hiding behind the civic...

[super1million11]

some redneck with a v8 truck pulls up to the civic at a redlight and laughs at the civic then the civic driver revs his car the in the truck quits laughing and acts like he didnt see the civic

[streetlethaleg6]

wat a piece of shit. if u want a civic have a civic. and if u want a corvette have a corvette don't take the heart out of the car and put it into a car where its completely out of place. the car loses it soul. SMH

[civettels1]

@streetlethaleg6 you continue on your cookie cutter life =)

[kirbyyasha]

That's badass. It's like, you can actually look like a fast ricer :P

[p8ntballer55]

put a cut out with some real quiet mufflers on this bitch then ittl be a sleeper..........

[civettels1]

@p8ntballer55 hard to be a sleeper with a big cam and procharger now =)



[paintedd]

That is terrifying.

[payndew]

Poo >.< .. Where's justin bieber in this one?

[lostwill86]

not a civic fan but this thing is the tits!!

[andyb0x]

now thats a sleeper

[TheXXcodyXx]

and the o;y way to make a honda go fast is to stick a vette enigine in it

[csgtfaught]

lol nice, but with the money ya spent on this you could have had a nice c5 vette

[PsuPepperoni]

@csgtfaught Sure you could buy other cars with the money they spent on this, but then you wouldn't have a ridiculous one-of-a-kind sleeper

[csgtfaught]

@PsuPepperoni not much of a sleeper when it sounds like then and you can see the engine sticking out of the car.

[civettels1]

@csgtfaught the engine doesnt stick out of the car! wtf are you talking about?

[civettels1]

@csgtfaught you show me a nice c5 vette for less than $5000 =)

[csgtfaught]

@civettels1 i can find a nice c5 for around 8K-12K here, but there is no way you can build a reliable civette for 5K, a good used ls1 and transmission will run you 4K the car as a rolling chassis 1K minimum. rear end 1.5K minimum, factor in all the little things mounts, k member, springs shocks, drive shaft, exhaust excreta you might be able to build one for around 9K

[XxBakerxX72]

Don't know too much about cars and engines and all that. But it would still be awesome to pull up next to someone and rev that engine! Aah the fun that could be had...

[r0llindubs]

this should pass smog out here in cali

[messyswindler1]

I don't like the dual exhaust layout, but I still love it no matter how many people try to flame at me lol.

[messyswindler1]

Lmfao.

[Jerz0neMUSICC]

before any more of you idiot fucking retarded youtube mechanics spew out bullshit.... go read the thread about the ENTIRE build start to finish.

[kasteman1]

I'd love to rent this thing for a day just to see people's reactions when I rev the motor at stoplights.

[flaminbreath]

supercharge that beast then show a dyno of it

[kuzb]

wow, trash.

[1000hpHONDA]

God called, he wants his beast back.

[messyswindler1]

you know, haters are jealous. i'd love to take this beast for a spin. it would hold the corners better than all the rednecks and their foxbody mustangs.

[kuzb]

@messyswindler1 Typical idiots think this is cool. Man, you guys know nothing about cars. A car is more than just a big engine. That thing is a piece of shit.

[jimP71]

@kuzb agreed i only want that civic's body to patch my barn roof!!! hahahaha

[hamish48273]

@kuzb i bet the guy that built this has forgoten more about cars than you could ever hope 2 learn

[kuzb]

@hamish48273 I sincerely doubt that. If he did, he wouldn't be driving that thing.

[xxswkxx15]

that thing must be a beast from a roll ... i bet it gets hard to hook from a dig

[IxIcOIrIEyIxI]

that guy is right... its not right.

[PutzkiSniper]

@Evan12345678 I dont think so man. Lol

[urbandestruction]

@Evan12345678 LOL noooooooo best just leave that one left alone :P

[nckflb892]

@Evan12345678 bahahaha that just made my day!

[youngb1ood]

disgrace would be a corvette with a 1.8 stock honda non-vtec engine.

[OhmBassBubba]

That engine sounds awesome!

[SgtSellz102]

bro idk wtf these ignorant people cant open there eyes. this is fuckin genious. this car would smash on jus about anythin becuz its power by an ls1 and is light as fuck. so stop hatin on dude n fix urself

[TKOEST89]

DREAMS DO.........COME TRUE

[TKOEST89]

DREAMS DO.........COME TRUE

[nevrlift13]

great combo of light car and big power...how does it handle the heavier nose weight?

[jonpaul1818]

@nevrlift13 I wouldn't think too bad, its got to have added weight from RWD and the LS1 is all aluminum, less heavy than youd think.

[DynastyPercussion]

I just finished watching all the pics of you making this car on the forum...great freaking job man. seriously.

[gotthatgoodshyt]

i think the corvette was behind them.. thats why they all looked lol

[bigenginesismythang]

thats how they shouldve been built

[thedarkminister1]

So with the power to weight ratio this oxymoron should be able to beat the real thing ha?... I'm a muscle car guy but I also love nissan.. so I dislike honda x2 lol. But I like this. We all need creativity in our builds

[CamronPoint14555]

@thedarkminister1 boo nissan.

[thedarkminister1]

@CamronPoint14555 I just had to eat a salad because of the depression that those words caused me :(

[re4gtr]

$10 say engine is in the back... which would be nice lol

[MyGta123]

@SmearTheQueer89 hmm no they dont honda definitely does not build the fastest cars in the world maybe the most fuel efficient and reliable but not the fastest

[cartman350]

And half of you people don't know that is a corvette frame with a civic chassis over it. And before you ask. The corvette was totaled and the guy bought it and removed the corvette chassis and remod the frame for the civic body to fit over it.

[merlinfromberlin37]

Interesting build. I love when people do stuff like this. way to think outside the box and make it happen.

[bboyninja007]

not a honda you say?, i bet it will beat a corvette

[mario7820]

for sale?

[jacoale]

I really don't understand people? How can you think this is a waste, he's actually being creative. How many people put THAT big of an engine in a Honda? It's pretty damn cool!

[jacoale]

How is this a discrace? A Civic with a Corvette engine? That's badass as hell!

[PS3ProGamer13]

@jacoale Its more then just a civic with a corvette engine its a civic with a corvette chassis

[mj20042]

@jacoale Yeah, it's badass, but it would have been cooler to do it with a domestic small car, like a Neon or even better, a Cavalier or Cobalt, keeping it within the brand. I mean, come on. You pull up to the lights next to a Cobalt you expect some whiny 4-cylinder and you hear a V8 rumble? Tell me you wouldn't get a kick out of that.
