1980 2nd gen civic b16 swap

[79Civic]

man i just messaged you on cardomain and then realized you had a thread on here! vids are freaking sweet you got me soo jealous now. i think im kinda in a little to high of hopes for my goals though juding by yours. im guessing your running about 160 hp in a 1700 pound car right? and only pulling a 13.9? my goal was 200-250 hp in a sub 1500 pound car in the low 12's but i dont think im going to make it now. maybe a high 12. very impressive though!

but your last post is over a month ago, any thing changed?

[cvccricebaby@yahoo.com]

no no ! bud it will do it" trust me with mine doing 13.9 it was doing miss fire and had crapy slicks i could still burn the slicks in 1st 2nd 3rd i had to start from 1200 rpm off the tree and still burnt off.
MAKE sure you you have great slicks cuz it will do it
i know mine will do 12's ( and make sure the front stays down mine still is being worked too much much lift on take off FRD

trust me it will do 12's 1/4 mile as long as the slicks grip and R/T is good with stiff springs in front and stiffer in back
right mow im doing paint POLOR white /w blue crystal pearle
then springs then the NHRA rollbar then the motor ls block vtec head stock displacement forged everything with mickey thomson ET slicks turbo t40e 25-30 psi, crome program ecu, exe..... .....and great fuel like NOS or pure jet fuel i ran 110 oct. w/ mix of toluene. i have ( no sponser just me my 5 yo kid and wife.

wooo thank god! i didnt think my goal was that far fetched! glad it isnt. traction is the last of my worries, ill have a good set of slicks, good suspension, and ill be making a nice traction bar as well.

good luck on the 8's!!! some day i would like to own the fastest 1st gen civic. but thats a VERY long ways away if it ever happens. by the time that happens there probably wont be any fuel left to drive it lol. keep us updated man! i might have to run down to wood burn one day to watch this thing in action. do u ever make it up to PIR?

 

[cvccricebaby@yahoo.com]

ya this summer ill be at PIR ill let ya know befor hand but ya ill be there this first time run all upgrade so you will see the new cvcc at PIR in summer the winter is all for tune and add on. i wanna be the first 2nd gen civic that hit the 8's 1/4 mile and im ganna do it at PIR import drags w/ my 5yo kid and wife and family -w/ friends need all the support i can get there even if it doesnt do it it will hit 9's but tryed huh !! you would be the first for support but ya ill do it
( If you want something bad enough you will get it -----if you didn't get it ---- well didn't try hard enough.

Top secret paint shop, eh?

 

[cvccricebaby@yahoo.com]

its about the people that painted it not the paint i guess, not a big deal on the paint but the people that did iti don't know why its a big deal for them might be cuz its free and used some new paint that came in that they had.
looks like white with pearle thats it.

 

[klyph]

Sounds sketchy, but whatever. As long as you're not breaking into a body shop late at night to paint your car.
