did you convert that to RHD or import this civic and how is it driving a RHD in the street in the US

[JasonUnoriginal]

@nintendo007 It is a conversion and to be honest, I prefer driving rhd in the states.

Dude kilkare is in xenia not cincinnati

[JasonUnoriginal]

@nickdec19 I'm aware lol. Was just generalizing since most people aren't aware where Xenia is. Thanks for the correction though.

@muscleheadist dropping a k20 into a civic would still be cheaper then new stock gt

[JasonUnoriginal]

@dynoplex6 Still cheaper than a base Mustang.

@Floordford why?

[Floordford]

@phlemTARD There is always a better car. There are better cars than a Corvette. Just so we are clear, again, if I was given the option id rather have a slow Mustang over a fast Civic. Thats all I said and there is no reason to discuss it further.

[Floordford]

Id still rather have a slow Mustang over a fast Civic any day. But hey to each his own.

Vtec called, he said his leg hurts from all those "kicking in" he had done in the past years...

I smoke mustangs all the time on the streets and freeways with my Honda in L.A.

You didnt need to settle it on the track

@Milehighsnake98 those coyote motors actually do run 11.5's in foxbodys. if thats what you were talking about.

[Eksirrob]

whats the color code of that eg

[Milehighsnake98]

@CarpathianCarl I'd bet faster than that, since A) the "412hp" is a low estimate, since a lot of '11 GTs make 375-385whp, and B) the '11 GTs can run bottom 12s stock at 3800lbs, in even a 3300lb SN95 it'd likely go 11s, and in a 2900lb fox body (considering the new 5.0 and 6 speed trans combined weigh less than an iron headed pushrod 5.0 engine only) I'd guess 11.50s is possible.

I would love to do a engine swap and run a 13.5 but then i would be running three 10ths of a sec slower then stock .
