my friend dropped that same motor in a 97 integra and it was slow as ****. maybe that civic is a hatch? because those are light as **** it might be fast. idk. i would still think youd take him tho

yea integeras are alot heiver then hatches but still thats fast for under 3000 lbs but still thats alost of motor compared to tyhe stock 95 hp in a civic
Yeah thats my GTA so far. its a never ending project
thx for the compliments.
The dude with the civic says Im slow,but I dont see him posting a video,he says he will and when he does Ill be sure to post it here.
What a moron, 3 lengths?? You could be missing on 2 cylinders and still not get beat by 3 lengths.

thats the dumbest thing ive heard all dayto be honest with you if the civic has got a good tune (or actually runs right) he WILL beat you hes only got 40 less hp than you and he weighs a hell of a lot less sorry
i have a 350 hp camaro and a friend with a COMPLETLY gutted hatch. he has the same motor thats not turboed. it was wayyyy faster than i thought ... i still won. but it might take you .... i'd say probably.... sry man

There is no way that you should get beat. I was kidding about the missing thing. Do you know how much 3 car lengths is?? Thats ALOT.

first of all... lets all remember that he is driving a POS and you have a kick *** GTA lol... second. it all depends on how far you race... i still think that it is gonna be scary close...
I believe that generation of civics is a tad bit heavier than the previous gens, that motor will give any honda SOME balls but not enough to beat your GTA. It might be a close race though if you go a longer distance, honda's usually tend to be good over long distances and not right out of the hole im my experience. Id watch out though, you dont list a VTEC controller but thats what that chip might be, if he can adjust when VTEC hits he might be able to suprise you.
a 95 civic type-R in japan, stock from factory weighs about 2600lbs according to google.

yeah.. thas pretty it.. his hp to weight ratio is way higher than urs
hahahahah there is no way that motor has that much TQ.... trust me i am the biggest import fan on this site.... but i still think the civic has you at the top. you should get him out the hole.
in a real race, from a dead stop. about an 1/8th mile the gta has it by far, if he hooks good.. if youre just going to keep going more than a 1/4 mile then yes, the civic maybe able to creep up on you. but thats not racing. so keep the race short and sweet, and you should stomp on that civic.
IMO, the civic doesnt have enough in it, the thing here is torque which we all know a 350 has a crap load of and we all know 4 cyl lack on it, if you have some sticky tires and hook that thing up your gone, hands down. And if the race is longer who knows, my 305 doesnt get going good till 4th gear and it pulls nicely. Ive seen alot of nicely done civics in my life, and I just dont think it will take the Firebird. Even so, if xxcoltxx added a mild cam, headers, or some other little stuff the civic wouldnt have a chance unless it was turboed, then we all know the sad results of that. but put a supercharger on that 350 and

I would just slap on a set of headers and a y pipe. Make sure everything is running right and rip him a new one. The power to weight ratio, he beats you but the torque you make, stomps him. You will definitely win with headers and a y pipe.
Heres the match up.
