whats up?
 
Hey guys i am new here and i was wondering something. I know alot of you guys are hardcore Honda fans and hey i dont blame you. The civic hb and the crx are excellent platforms. However, i was wondering what other cars, around the same size as the civic hb and the crx, would be good platforms as well. You know, to keep the weight down, and because hatchbacks are cool.

True Whitey, so so true. Nice job on that twin turbo setup. Anyways, I was interested in that Ford Festiva with the mazda engine in it. As we all know the price for gas is steadly increasing and well we all need to be able to get more bang for our buck. Anyways, the only close car to the Civic HB that I found was the Ford Focus and due to my hatred for the beefed up look that ford is going with, the focus is out of the picture. Hmmm, i have to say though hondas are easy to work with. I would say if i want good gas mielage and want to do a turbo setup then honda is the way to go but i was to surprise someone. Are Nissans easy to work with?

Get a Mazda 323 hatchback and swap a BPT motor in it. That would be pretty pimp and lightweight, But chicks dig guys with civics so just break down and buy one. ;)

ha yes, well the only problem is that there are to many ricers. I do realize most people on this site dispise ricers but those lil fuckers are everywhere and well i dont want to was my time with them and their 1992 honda civic DX HB with a '00 front end with the stock motor and the non functioning hood scoop with a shogun body kit thinkin they can get into the next fast and furious. I would rather ignore them and smoke them all day in the most stock looking sleeper just to laugh in their faace and piss on their car.
