Jerry is a great guy to talk to about the NSX, (he works on them.) This Civic is lighten by how much, Jerry? What else has been done to it?

 

[jsample]

the car is about 1700lbs with a gsr motor and lsd trans for now. im sure this friday we will blow the clutch with the slicks. stop by de come see it.with the exhaust coming out of the gas door.

have you autocrossed it?
i'm currently looking into getting a civic hatchback to use as an autocross/road race car.
i'm curious to see how they do vs. an nsx on the track... especially with a b-series engine.

 

[jsample]

ok we did 9.2sec 1/8 mile with out slicks and with a stock clutch. its ok time we will do better this friday

 

[NSX/MR2]

My best time was 9.1 (street tires,) and David's best time was 8.6 with drag radials.

 

[jsample]

was that with the nsx or mr2

 

[NSX/MR2]

The NSX. I will need to learn how to hook up better (too much spinning.)

 

[jsample]

ok with the slick and a clutch we did 9.01 for the 1/8 mile. thats ok with just all motor. but we need to go faster. more to come.......

 

[NSX/MR2]

With that time slip, you will beat close to 90% of the cars down there.

 

[FF Drifter]

Yeah but GreenLight was often running against cars with the engines sticking out of their freaking hoods so I'd say we didn't look as fast as we could've looked ~ although the timeslips say otherwise. Then again, beating on generic Mustangs and Integras just doesn't get the same kind of respect

 

[jsample]

i guess its time for NOS

 

[NSX/MR2]

i guess its time for NOS

Now, we are talking.

 

[FF Drifter]

You might be closer to that now more than ever huh Jerry? That might be a more potent modification than shaving off the car's door moldings and hood bracings

 

[RP-Motorsports]

we will blow the clutch with the slicks.

You will break an axle first!

 

[jsample]

ya we will break an axle, but its great to have 4 more here at the shop

with the exhaust coming out of the gas door.

for my own education, why is that ?

 

[jsample]

why is what the exhaust? we put it there so people can look at it from what i see no one has done that. and so people can ask y.

 

[jsample]

[jsample]
