Atleast he dosent have euro tails...
My friend has the same car, also turbo charged. Not sure which body kit on it he has, but its an alright looking car. Im not a fan of the Civics, Integras and Eclipses. Its just over done at this point.

Gee. For all that trouble, wouldnt it have just been easier to use the same cash to get a nicely used 300+hp 300ZX/VR-4 Twin Turbo.

When I was thinking of turbo charging my Acura, I saw quite a few turbo civic kits. 350whp is common, 550whp isn't unheard of.
It's not great at cornering, and it needs a long stretch to brake from a quarter-mile run, but it can probably do a 12 second quarter-mile. The bigger turbo kits give 10 second quarter miles.

looks like that actually is cool
seeing as its actually fast (250 whp is pretty respectable, especially since the cars weighs like 22xx lb's)
so its silly looks has something behind it
but its kind of a shame to put a lot of money modifying a normal car
civics arent race cars
unless you dump plenty of cash into it and then only in a straight line

it gets much worse than that. Even worse than that, was the fact that at a car meet i was attending last night, there was a new BMW e46 330ci that had that same damn wing on it, thats right, the one thats on that civic was on a new bimmer... made me want to cry....

That isn't rice - not a Vtec or Type R sticker to be seen. Doesn't look like a bad job to me, it sounds like he paid attention to the important stuff (except maybe brakes?) Okay, the blue seats and LCD TV are a bit ricey, but understated. 250 fwhp might be enough to beat a 996 to 120, but I doubt it.

someone should note to him that he had to mod it to make it go fast, but i highly doubt he worked a 996. He's also asking too much I bet on the reserve.....I sure hope the Rice Revolution is a FAD that will die out in a couple years or it could seriously ruin the future designs of cars to come... ![Mad](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/mad.gif)
