hotrex scores a new car...
 

well i just picked up a 91 std hatch for 400 bucks. car is really clean.

im swapping over everything from the gsr into the hatch. im gonna put the hatch into the 10s. im pumped to get going on this

hatch is way less to insure, its lower profile, and ill sell the gsr with a n/a ls/vtec in it for 5k. damn i lucky

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Sweet. You're gonna miss the luxury feel of the GSR but at least you aren't driving a heavy pig anymore.

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

10's will be easy as you SIT. i'd be shooting for mids with those mods

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Nice. you think the gsr ripps, Gut the STD and even you wont be able to hold her!

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

I still want to see this beast.

And I think you should do a fatty burnout before the swap.

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

any pictures of the new toy?

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

:3

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

trade for my 00' 4 door josh? nah, u want the cash

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

should have got crx so you can live up to your name

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Did you actually talk to your insurance company yet? When I switched from my 90 Civic STD to my 96 Mustang GT my insurance actually went from $580 a year to $515. My V8 acutally saved my $65 a year on insurance becuase it was fully loaded with ABS and airbags and an alarm ect. Wouldn't it be funny if your insurance went up switching to a slower car? :S

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

i dont think so. after the built head and what not. bigger slicks. then we're talking. but i would rather rock the integra than an std

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Nah hatch any day!

Plus he just bought a built head!

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

---- a GSR, that ---- is too heavy. O0

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Damn Josh I would have sold you my EF. I just got a truck too and the EF's just been sitting :3

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

How long until you get the motor in the EF? That is going to be one sick car. :y

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

I'm saying: With that same b16 motor in the hatch, as he sat on track day, with those tiny slicks, the car WILL go 10's. Its not really a question of will, but how deep

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

lol, is from your vast knowledge and experience with 10 second FWD cars? :l You wanna put money on it?

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

10's is big flight of faith. Maybe 11.60's

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

I dont know guys. That thing trapped 122mph with room for about another 3mph. I'd be willing to put a few bucks down whitey

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

:y with that current setup with same slicks. 11.6 maybe even the same time with a higher trap. lighter car = more power to weight= less traction

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Good choice the EF rules. :y I never liked them Tegs anyways there ugly.

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

but hatch is definitely the way to go, i got a 89 std hatch for 550 really nice condition too. yea that power to weight ratio might actually hurt him, especially not being an experienced track driver, not that i am either. maybe you should drop down that boost and see if you do any better, i think it could actually help you out alot. i saw that happen on pinks(yeah i know the show kinda sucks) but they pulled off the second nitrous bottle and got a better time and 60'. although, that was like a 1800 hp camaro, but ya know

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

the hatch with the same setup would probably be bettrr for 3 to 4 tenths.

i would not go 10s on those tiny slicks. i couldnt launch hard enough

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

PICS YOU DUMB ------.

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Shorter wheelbase tho :-/ .... Are you going to go with a hydro tranny conversion? that would be the best bet!

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Nice to hear!!

I drive a 90 STD. Light as ---- y0!

Slammed with front and rear sway bars makes it feel like a go-kart.

It's going to be a night and day difference in acceleration, handling, everything from the GSR. You are going to need to swap the brakes of course, but that's cheap and easy.

Let's see some pics of this soon-to-be beast!

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

Let's see those pics sucka.

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

nice pickup hotrex......
<-------- mine here as my avatar, i picked up for 350 running, its a 91 as well, but in bad condition....(95 integra frontend within the next 2 months......)
good luck on the buildup, lets see some pics and vids soon......

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

:3... why...

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

I could see it being done with a 2g integra front end may look ok but with a 3g teg front end the lines are just too different

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

thats like asking why we turbo our hondas man, becasue we like that ----.....lol(well at least its what i like to have) :y

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

please God no.... :3

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

shouldn't he be banned or something for even saying that?

Re: hotrex scores a new car...
 

In Ireland insurance goes mainly by engine size (how gay is that) so a 400hp 2.0 turbo will probably cost less to insure than a slow ass sub-200hp 3.0L :)
