This guy on Xanga (pretty gay but ya) he says he dumped 13Grand into his 97 civic and did a supra engine swap. First all i told him that supra is an Rear wheel drive and the civic is front and i didnt think an supra twin tubro at that would fit in the civic bay. He supposly has 450hp. and its all stock besides that. the supra twin turbo had 320hp i thought. Would this even be possible? If so how and about how much money you think. Some reason i have it very inbelievable he has 4 cars at that a supra, civic supra engine swap, jetta, rsx. hes only 17. and its all insured and he says he works full time and pays for it all himself. i thought you couldnt work full time if your a minor anyways?

so he's 17 with four cars...? I wouldn't believe anything unless he's truely a rich kid and can posts a bunch of photos of all this. Until then he's JUST a 17 year old who talks about cars he doesn't own, brags about a supra engined civic he doesn't own... etc...

No.. I drive an Toyota corolla dx its my daily beater POS. I am going to hopefully trade it in for an civic hatchback.. For right now thats the only question i had. I just had to prove a point to the guy cause he just likes to run his mouth about shit. I figured id get people that have a honda's point of view sence you guys drive them everyday and i was wondering if anyone had something like this on here.

fosho nukka!
lets not forget, a 6cyl can fit into a civic, we've seen it done with teh acura motor, and it was also rear wheel drive, though i'm not to sure how well a 2jz would fit in there.

it may be able to be done....but cmon...210 MPH? not in a civic! that thing would fall apart at that speed. and i dont think it can be glued to the ground either. dont forget....indy cars have wings on them for a reason. they run 210-220 all day long. this dude better have some serious ricer wing on it.

Yeah xanga thing is pretty gay. I have it only becuase people where i live are mostly connected through it. Its hard as shit to us being i do not know computers. But he said he ran 210mph in his supra not the civic w/ supra engine swap. Thing that got me is just damn he supposly has civic w/ engine swap, supra, jetta, rsx and he paid for it all w/ his own money and he has them all insured and current tags. i was like wtf your 17 and have all this. He also said he has 540hp in his twin turboed supra and can burn all the way through 3rd. I told him thats very impressive considering my sisters car (scion tc turboed w/300hp) can burn through 3rd also. If he was pushing 540 would he not be able to burn a little more then 3rd? Im not sure what the weight on one of those are though.

im not shure about ur friend but..to get to 450 on a TT supra all you have to do is get a new downpipe.new bov..boost controller..new intake system and new bigger exhaust..we did that set up on my dads car little while back and pulled 457 rwhp..but as for civic with supra motor..i look at supra motors all day and i dont really think you'll fit the motor in there..but eh..wut do i know..
