I've blew the doors off a GSR swap in a CRX before
but that k20 swap is another story

K20 swap ("done correctly") into a hatch - FTW

that's going to be my next project k20/CRX


all i have is a turbo d in an ef hatch

I'm sure there are many of us who understand that a heavily modded civic can be quite fast. There are just as many of us who realize that a vast majority of the civics that rev at S2000's and other faster cars are kids with a fart can and an intake who think they can now magically run with evos.

For every well modded civic that I run into there are a hundred sloppily done ricewagons. It's simple really, give respect where respect is due...but there is no harm in calling a horse a horse.

I agree 100%/. I don't know where you're from but ricers are basically extinct here. It's all swapped out civics prowling the streets. Where I'm from most JDM(clean)civics have swaps in them. I'll constantly run in many of them and won't even pull. Over the summer I ran a friend who had a EG hatch with a K20 in it. From 60MPH-100mph or so he pulled 3 car lengths+. But we stopped before we even hit like 110mph. Would that be considered heavilly modded? A simple motor, no cams, no internal work, not even an intake lol. He just has an exhaust. O yeah not even tunes too.

Are you Forced induced? Because B18C1(180Hp)(GSR) if it really was a GSR in a CRX(less than 2000lbs) would be pretty quick. I would say running low 13's. And you blew the doors off of him? Please say your supercharger or turboed. Or his swap isn't working correctly. I ran GSR hatches all the time and I don't pull much. IT also depends on if it's EG or Ek since Eg's are lighter.

I love little civics!!

I have a JDM ITR swapped EG hatch and it ran 13.6s at the track. I want a k20 swap though.

But I also own an Comptech S2k with 300whp.....never ran this at a drag track before, but should run low 13's.

I had a b16 in my EF and it ran 14.1 with just I/H/E. It ran soo smooth but I enjoy my S so much more. But it always felt good to give the big v8 boys a run for their money in a 'lil hatch.

This thread makes me miss it even more.

I live in MD now, but I used to be in CA. There are plenty of show but no go civics in both places. Plenty of clean, properly modded ones too.

And yes, I would consider an engine swap a "heavily modded" car. Even with some of the swap kits out there, an engine swap is a major undertaking and is not for the faint of heart or the light of wallet. While the engine itself is unmolested, it's not like he simply dropped in a lower mileage example of his stock motor either.

I'm turbo, so it takes a truly special Civic to get my attention.

I was gonna say gsr swap, because a bolt-on ITR swap coupe is gonna be not so easy to catch up to like you did.
