Hey guys/girls,

After being a hardcore nissan owner for a very ver short rein( few weeks). I guess the light kinda hit me,there's a reason hondas are so popular. "THEY'RE FREAKING CHEAP AND PARTS ARE CHEAP" ! That and the after market is rediculously huge. So I figure I might give it a shot at owning one. I'm selling my 280ZXT wich I know is not only a down grade somewhat. But at the same time I need the money. So this honda I'm looking for now will more then likely be my next car. I'm looking for something Zippy and good on gas. I don't plan on "ricing" it out with ridiculously large un-functional wings and exuast that make the car sound faster then it's going. So my question is before I choose a honda make vehicle. Integra or civic ? I know there's also the prelude to take into consideration but then again they cost a pretty penny too. I know you can get the integ in the GSR model ,So would it be smarter to buy an Integra wich I know is made for racing over say a v-tec or Si Civic ?

P.S

Before I start getting flamed keep in mind I need a car I can mod on a really really low budget that's why a honda came to mind.

 

mileage and perfomance dont go together...


so does low budget...


im not sure about hondas, but i would assume you'd need at least few thousand to make a car relitively quick ( civic for ex. )


I like integras


p.s. wasnt a flame

just my thoughts,


p.s.s

I dont know shit about hondas

 

Actually the old Turbo Dodges are cheap ( You can build a rather quick, low 14 sec, Dodge for under $2500 possibly including purchase price) easily modded and while pushing 15lbs and higher get 30 MPG on the Interstate consistently, and they don't require premium fuel to perform, but to0 get max results you should run premium. Not trying to talk you out of a Honda cause if that;s what you want then go for it.

 

Are you talking about the old stealthes ?

 

Another car I was thinking about was the old AWD Turbo DSM's but I don't know much about those either.

 

I think you should buy my DSM posted below. Runs 13's on the stock turbo & Minimal boost. Couple more mods and this bitch will haul serious ass.

 

Keep in mind this next car has to be reasonable on the insurance and decent gas mileage,then again when your doing OVER the speed limit you tend to get places with buring to much cause your there sooner,lol (j/k). I was also considering teh old 6banger 5spd. Camaro's. There's a reason why I chose such a weak car. A, insurance wont be to bad . B, that will leave me plenty of engine bay space to pack some serious mods. Even though for the money you put in that 6 you can put into a 8 and get twice the power,but then again I'm not building a drag car either. I would much rather have a week camaro then a even weaker civic. so how bout it weak camaro or rediculously week civic ? I honestly like the camaro better cause it's much more simple and they make this kits for tehm taht look bad ass... Check out the link http://www.k1-styling.sk/evo2.htm

 

P.S

The kits are a bit pricey but I think they are well worth teh investment. Considering ppl but twice teh money in a everyday civic/integra.
