my first time at dragstip with turbo wagon and ghettodyne,,
 

My first time ever drag racing. ran the wagon tonight on ghettodyne. 10lbs of boost, street tuned. best was 9.8 in 8th, but i was leaving at the wrong light so my reaction time blows. someone finally told me what I was doing wrong, but the track closed so I couldn't try it again. had a blast. my friend was there with his omni he put a turbo in, with 14 lbs of boost and automatic I was catching him even with my crappy reaction times. I gotta get a wideband and tune this thing right!

Hahaha leaving at the wrong light!! If I ever make it to a track I'll probably do something just as stupid with a R/T of like 3.754 or something. :P Got any pics of the wagon?

Now that is cool!!! I bet you can launch that bitch at 6500 with mad traction! Nice work. How long have you had this for with the swap?

turbo has been on for about 6-8 months. everything else is about a year and a half old.

Re:my first time at dragstip with turbo wagon and ghettodyne,,
 

just a question, could i rig up an 4 wheel drive system to a crx? and did they have 88-90 awd wagons? if so were the rear suspension arms the same?

Re:my first time at dragstip with turbo wagon and ghettodyne,,
 

your 1/8th mile time and doesn't have anything to do with reaction time... it doesn't start until you cross the line :)


9.8 is really slow.. whats the deal with that? AWD should help you out a lot. that wagon must be heavy...

Re:my first time at dragstip with turbo wagon and ghettodyne,,
 

the wagon is heavy, its only street tuned(guessing), my first time racing, can't launch for ---- cause it has so much traction it falls on its face till the boost hits. I gotta slip the clutch a little I guess. I also have a small turbo, 2 1/4 exhaust, and a flowbastard which needs to come off.
they made the wagon 4wd from the early 80's until 91. you can put it in a crx but its alot of work. the floorpans are totally different, the swingarms are different lengths, so you would need to be able to fabricate pretty well. the wagon also has a bolt on crossmember instead of the stamped and welded on one that all the other civics have.
Oh yea, i'm running full interior and the car still has A/C also.

I've read somewhere of a guy with that setup awd crx. I sold a zc to some guy awhile ago who had a turbo'd zc powered wagon. I would love to see the reaction of someone getting smoked by an old civic wagon. Though the wagons are not true awd cause the rearend only gets some like 30% of power and their not that strong. Honda tuner is doing up a wagon in their issues, cool but it's sporting 17's but its rockin' sparco buckets front and back.

I have a link to the picture gallery of the awd crx in canada, it's on my other computer so the next time I'm there I'll post it.
