Just picked this up on Craigslist for 3800. Needs a tune and a little cosmetic work, but only has 135k on the clock. Guy says it runs high 11's. Did I do good /o/?
>>14974841
seems a good price if it's not stolen and is structurally solid
>>14974841
>buying someone else's '94 EG civic hatch with a few simple mods

>>14974874

>simple
It's a miata slayer and I don't have the capabilities of putting on a turbo myself. The fact that it's already set up to be super fast was a huge plus for me.
>>14974841
Yes, if the engine swap and other modifications were done right, clean title, and no rust.
What's under the hood?
>>14974881
>it's a miata slayer
I can't tell if you're trolling or not.
>>14974881
>It's a miata slayer
so is nearly any Civic kek
>>14974881
wew lad
>>14974887
It has a b20
>>14974902
Those seem to be the quickest cars in my area, and I know you guys love them
>>14974911
Yeah but mines turbo ;)
>>14974881
>miata slayer
>GUARANTEED EBAY TURBO
Swap that turbo for a real one and buy a half decent intercooler.
>>14974957
What would you suggest? Thats not s bad idea considering it needs a tune anyway
>>14974881
most cars are miata slayers my dude
>>14974962
Ah, well this is only my second car, I'm kind of ignorant when it comes to vehicles. I thought they were the go-to for cheap speedy red light racers
>>14974973
We can tell you are kind of ignorant when it comes to cares, you bought a 94 civic for almost twice as much as I bought a 1979 Z28 3 years ago.
>>14974981
And yet mine is faster and more comfortable haha
>>14974981
his car is better than a 1979 Z28
even if it was bone stock it would be better
>>14974930
>Those seem to be the quickest cars in my area, and I know you guys love them
Miatas are slow as fuck, the reason people like them is that they're fun to drive without breaking traffic laws. Back when I had my C5 Z06, my options to having fun driving it was to go down to a track 40 minutes away or risk getting it impounded.
>>14974991
>>14974993
Are you ricers this ignorant?
You don't buy 2nd gen camaro's for the stock 350 that's sitting in them, you buy them so you can plug and play with strokers and big blocks.
Also have fun with a car that will never be worth more than 1k.
>>14974961
Godspeed is the absolute minimum tier turbo supplier you should use, they use their own housing but the journal bearing and propeller and everything else is turbonetics which is a reputable company. It's definitely a budget turbo so you're not going to see 20psi unless you wanna blow the seals out.
>>14975002
Ah , well I appreciate you being kind about it. I had no idea. I can't wait to track this and see what it can do
>>14974930
>It has a b20
does it have a VTEC head? did the guy have receipts to show work was done?
>>14975011
>Also have fun with a car that will never be worth more than 1k.
says the guy who got a piece of shit Camaro :^)
have fun trying to navigate a slight corner in your V8 shitbox

>>14975024
It sertanly has more heart and soul than some mid-90s nip econobox.
>>14974973
This is your second car, as in it's a project or weekend car or it's the second car you've ever owned?
>>14975029
Except it really doesn't
>>14975014
I don't know what that is. Not really, just a few receipts in the glove box for sparkplugs and brakes
>>14975013
No problem. Be sure to get the engine checked out by a shop that knows what they're doing before you drive it hard. If it's an eBay turbo that the dude installed poorly, you could end up in a bad place if you drive it hard.
>>14975036
Second car I've ever owned. First was a Ford ranger
>>14975021
I know they're pieces of shit, Anything that is post-72 tends to be, but a shitty little 2 door hatchback that's main draw comes from a turbo? Come on now, who in the fuck tries to street race any older muscle car?
>>14975024
>>14975048
This kid doesn't even know what the fuck he bought, he took the guys word for it after he and god knows how many people had their hands in that piece of shit.
>>14975029
No dude, I've noticed a growing trend of people who rice shit out, they're either 17-18, or 5'6 and can't reach the clutch pedal in a normal sized car.
>>14975073
Wow, what a piece of shit. Is that yours? Have fun in a straight line
>>14975029
not really
>>14975073
>who in the fuck tries to street race any older muscle car?
anyone who realizes that muscle cars are slow garbage?
goddamn I smoked a Chevelle in a Toyota Highlander
even without the turbo that Civic would be the better car
>>14975084
Too bad you can't put a turbo on your little 2 inch asian microdick :^)
>>14975081
Yes, I took that in 2002 and have waited till this day to make you this assblasted about japshit.
>>14975084
Keep pushing your shitty meme's onto other people while I build a 500 hp 383/388 for 3k, and that's straight motor, no turbos/superchargers needed :^)
>>14975100
>I'm only pretending to be not mad

>>14975084

All you need is a working engine. Most people wreck their cars. Even if the trim is pretty doesnt mean they havnt been just running it on straight water for coolant or e91 fuel or it has working ignition packs

Fuck outta here with your weak shit.
V8fag status=bumble rumbled
>>14975102
not impressive
my old Mazda made over 400whp with a junkyard turbo from a Cummins
it could also turn and not make me look like I fuck my sister
there I threw an actual meme in there for you
>>14975106
Why would he be mad, he's not even the guy in your make believe story or the guy you are replying to.
>>14975118
I sound like someone who's built a stroker or two and works on Semi's for a living. Also 195 cm if you were wondering :^).
>>14975124
Yeah, my old Miata made over 700whp with a N14's stock turbo that I found lying in the dumpster! That V8 fag is a flipping idiot. Am I right fellow rice-head?
>>14975127
> I was only pretending to be retarded

are you guys really having a muscle vs import flame war
>>14975160
That's not even mine you fucking retard, what else would I expect from someone so incompetent that has no idea what a stroker is, and why japshit is as the name would imply?
>>14975166
No, just why in the fuck would you pay 4k for a civic that's not even a v-tec.
>>14975178
I dont care if its yours you posted that you had one
>all that projection tho
kek
>>14975188

Wow, much projection.
>>14975192
>no u
come on
stop living up to the stereotype that musclefags are braindead
>>14975209
The stereotype where you get your words thrown in your face so you say,
>"You Dum-Dum."
Stop living up to the sterotype that you are 17 years old and think cars sounding like moped's is "Sick".
>>14975222
>literally still no u
kek
I hope you dont think your v8s that sound like fat men struggling to move sound good
youre probably a legit homo if you think so
>>14975166
lmao i haven't really seen a "Muh JayDEE-em" vs "muh muscle" this dumb in awhile.. especially not old Civic vs even older Camaro...
I'm imagining a Pizza Delivery kid vs someone from King of the Hill haha..
>>14975234
Your grammar and spelling tells me enough, thanks for the interesting argument of "You fag." included with such classics as, "You dingus.".
I'd go into why a 454/427/428/468 are better than any inline 4, but what's the point? You don't even know what any of those things are, I could also explain why the Original leather interior on my 75' is worth more than your civic, but come on now.
You're young, I'm sure you'll learn.
>>14975250
Yep, definitely right my fellow rice head.
>>14975301
>random ramblings that amount to nothing
kek
youre so deluded that the garbage V8s are good
>>14975311
Such a good point, here's a video to prove how great civics are.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKAJkH6Tggg
>>14975311
The fact that he doesn't need some rinky dinky tarbo to push more that 400hp proves otherwise, buddy. Enjoy your emm pee gees, I guess :^)
>>14975338
literally all these cars were stock runnig worse than stock numbers.
suck a dick dawg
>>14975338
>drag racing
lol
even more sad that mostly stock Hondas are giving some of them a good race
>>14975351
power is power
400hp isnt impressive in your pigfat barges
stay salty with your inferior garbage
>>14975367
>>14975368
So are they stock or not stock? I'm confused, most of those cars/trucks that raced them seemed stock to me :^).
>>14974981
two completely different cars, one modern and functional the other a cocaine infused rust bucket from the 80s
>>14975375
hardly any of the muscle shit in that video was stock
maybe the foxbody Raptor and Jeep
you didnt even watch the video did you
>2.0L economy sedans able to keep up with some 4.9+L V8s
kek
>>14975391
:^)))) Papa John would beg to differ.
>>14975338
lol that fucking pickup truck
>should I take the toolbox off?
>nah fuck it
>still beat the civic
>>14975073
the draw of 90s civic comes from its suspension and light weight if anything the turbo ruined it, adding reliability issues loosing AC and fucking torque steering to shit
I just don't get the appeal of Civics. Sure they can be made fast, but at the end of the day it's still an ugly shitbox.
>>14975394
>Shitty V8's
>So shit
>Well those were stock
So is it that Civic owners are in-competent mechanical wise, and have no idea what they are buying? Or just everyone that knows about cars will tell you that no 2.0L will ever be able to push out anywhere near the same power as a 5.7L and up?
>>14975408
Stock 350 master-race lel.
>>14975421
So you'd say that car is a shit and not worth 4k?
>>14975430
you dont get a Civic to drag race
just like you dont get some shitbox American car to take a corner at more than 15 mph
>modded V8s almost slower than stock 2.0 sedans
embarrasing
>>14975438
You don't get a Civic to race
You get a Civic to get from point A to B
You know why? Because they are soulless appliances and were designed as such.
>>14975453
were talking about a Civic
not some generic V8 shitbox
Civics actually have racing heritage
but you wouldnt know about that would you Cletus?
>>14975429
not all cars have to be fucking race cars, this is the point hardly anyone on /o/ understands
>>14975438
You're right, you buy a civic so you can get pounded by your boyfriend in the back with the hatchup.
>>14975457
Racing heritage of escaping Nagasaki and Hiroshima before Fat Man and Little Boy rekt'd them?
>>14975457
Trying to out-accelerate a minivan from stoplight to stoplight does not give it racing heritage
Yoshi Cuckishima rushing to his wageslave job does not give it racing heritage
>>14975430
im sure more than 4k was put into it and if you want a car strictly to hoon around a track and do projects on than its fine. But I would never daily that thing, nor would I consider it a good set up, seems a much more form over function thing
>this V8 butthurt

>>14975477

>>14975477
too lazy to look up civic touring car racing? here's a hint, they did pretty well.
>>14975508
Too lazy to look up dumb shit that doesn't matter? Well here's a hint, I'm right and you are wrong. Honda being able to turn makes it the best racer on the market.
I bought a non-running bone stock '94 Civic 4dr LX with 260k on the clock for $200. I'd say I'm ahead of you in the game OP.
>>14974841
Ouch non vtec b20? With shit turbo, high 13 should be right I did a engine swap I'm a old 93 arcua for the fun of it that had a b20 in them total shit but the engine was runing great till over 300k

Buying a car you know nothing about? Yes.
And yeah, that car has never and will never run 11s. Better luck next time.

>>14977572
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I remember when I was a stupid kid, too.
I mean, never THIS stupid, but still.
>>14977572
Only chance it has at running 11s is on an 1/8 mile drag strip m8
>>14977576
Well, it is hard to forget the current state of things isn't it?
You know who else said the car ran '11s'? 5 tooth Larry who we bought nova off of in Kentucky. He's just feeding you a story to sell
>>14977725
I drove it to school this morning. It runs 0-60 in 4.5 seconds easily. I believe the high 11s
>>14977738

>>14974841
Soo much you need to check before taking someones project over. Get a list of added parts, service records to make sure he didn't need some major repairs and he's just pawning them off on you. Go over the structure well and make sure he didn't hoonigan around and fuck mounts, suspension or cut anything.
Also air sensors, ricers like to mod their exhaust and often cut right through sensors and don't give a fuck.
>>14978762
It's clearly a bait thread. I've been enjoying it since last night
