That's a great story. I had friends like that. I even participated in their highway runs. But no more because they started hating on my 7.

tim that actually made me laugh out loud haha

I hate stupid people in general.

Ricers are stupid.

This thread is also an exemplary act of stupid.

haha Hondas are irritating me lately... Just went to sell the last of the Honda parts I had in my garage... Guy told me to meet him at the Alderwood Mall... But sends his mom and she calls me and tells me she'll be late... So I tell her where she will find me parked... And eventually security comes and kicks me off the premises because I'm "not allowed" to meet people there... So I called her to tell her to meet me at Target across the street and she says "Oh you're here?!" ... Come on!! I waited 30 mins and she was there the entire time... Ugh

ProjectKyo

Lol how are you going to send your mom to your own business. Pathetic.

lol yet another good example of why ricers are gay

RotaryJun

honestly, i agree with you guys that ricers are "gay" and whatnot. but why do you all of you guys
assume that Honda drivers are ricers?? i know there are a lot of bad drivers and ignorant people,
but c'mon guys, how biased can you all be?

busted! lol

sarcasm = fail

anywho, my bro drives the Hondas, as well as my father-in-law. i drive the Scion.
and i live with good people.

back on point, i know a lot of good people who drive Hondas. and they're not all ricers. but believe me,
i'm from Portland and it's pretty much the capital of all ricers in the NW. it's pretty annoying.

Well said. Its just a sterotype that tends to prove itself true more than false. Can't be helped. But as long as people understand that there is a minority that doesn't fall under taht category, then it's ok.

I was in that minority for 8 months while I had a very respectable high class looking Integra, very tastefully modded, none of that loser, unpainted body kit trend goin on. Just a clean drop with some very rare wheels and a seldom seen exhaust... Until someone decided to steal it and total it... Then I upgraded to an FD

wafflesincars

Again:
I drive a Honda. Dumb people rice out any car, Honda's are CHEAP.

This is the appealing factor, and the fact that a junkyard turbo setup on a CRX would walk all over 90% of the cars on the road.

255ftlb on stock everything @ ~15psi = Freeway destruction.

Homemade suspension limiters and traction bar with WindoWelded motor mounts and that CRX will dip 10's, 9's with a good driver; I forgot how much Goforth was putting down but he was running the same bracket as the rest of the Pinks cars. It's been done numerous times.

Honda= Cheap, Fast, Reliable.

The issue is FWD. That is it.

/rant

wafflesincars

Also an N/A Honduh is useless.

JDM=Gay.

It wasn't a race car... I didn't street race. It was just a clean looking car. I did plan to turbo it, but like I said 8 months is all I had the car.

Who said anything about JDM?

JDM is basically any Honda part now days... They don't understand what JDM stands for, otherwise they'd know that not ALL aftermarket parts are JDM... My car was not JDM and I don't understand why you're tryin to bash it... But whatever.

And I've never seen anyone run 15 lbs on stock internals... That's impressive if it holds up. Everyone I've ever encountered that ran more than 10 psi on their stock honda internals ended up blowing their motor...

Did you ever see Jeff's (founder of HomeMadeTurbo.com) red CRX with the B20 vtec and SC61 that ran 12.01 on 10.5 lbs? Which at one time also had a twin turbo LS Vtec. And then most recently he built a 456whp H22 turbo powered 96 Civic hatch that ran 10.1's.

wafflesincars

My newest project is water injected Z6 hoping to hit 300wtq on stock everything, with a good tune an LS will push ~14psi.

It was my friend's old D16A1 that ran 15psi water injected daily with a 2 gallon water tank. He filled it up like once every two weeks and turned it up to 20 at the track.
Granted it blew the ringlands, but not before he raped it for a solid year.

Jeff's old set up is still on the projects section, but I think it was Whitey who had the TT-LS.

I didn't mean your car being JDM, it just seems to be JDM to be N/A.

But yes, an N/A Honda is worthless. Like my current Honda.

lol Ok thanks for clearing that up. Too abd you haven't had a chance to see Jeff's projects in person... He does some insane work. It was fun watching him get pissed when he ran a 12.01 in his B20 vtec CRX cuz if he were to break 12.00 he would get kicked off cuz it wasn't caged... And that was his goal, to get kicked off the track lol So he was pissed to run so "slow". Couple weeks later he blew it up racing an Yamaha R1 or R6 sport bike... He was winning until it blew lol Crazy guy... Still amazed he did a turbo Kia project.

wafflesincars

As far as I know the turbo-Kia still lives.

I believe he sold it, there was a thread about him seeing it around town or something.

jetta drivers also get a bad rep for being a ricer...well maybe thats just my exp. celica owners to...but honda seems to dominate the ricer department

Jesus loves rotaries

hmm I llive in St. Pete Florida, one one of the ricer capitals of the world. You all don't understand some of the ricers I see around here. If you have seen those tmobile commercials with the giant riced out cars it's ;iterally like that. I have seen Scion TC's with red and blue dueling dragons paint jobs, a cavallier with a blue paint job with neon green trim all over the whole thing and a big *** black panther stickers on it, there is a guy with mitsubishi ecliplse wallowing around here with 4 differnt colored body kit parts on his car and one of the biggest most ridiculous wings I have ever seen on a car. That's just naming a few of the one's I have seen. Since before I got my license I promised myself I would get a "real" car, so I saved up my money and when I turned 18 after driving my 97 lincoln continental she gave to me I bought my 400whp FD. Funny story, the other night I was drrving to this place in another county, this honda civic comes up to me reving and trying to race me and I didn't want to waste my gas so I just shook my head and he does a ricer fly by and got pulled over by a cop that was behind us LOL. What a freakin Dumb*ss

RotaryJun
