I remember. My 1.6L 99 SI stock everything but a t3/t4 11psi 285hp turbo kit I built is still the fastest car I've owned, and I've owned some fast stuff.

Time to run a T4 turbo at 11psi on your z.

Nnaaaa, not my thing anymore. If I want a turbo I'll buy back my 11wrx at 335hp 396tq running 11's on stock everything.

I loved my Integra Type-R, number 313 in 1998. Almost no sound deadning but that was ok. Not a terribly fast car, but it really hugged the road. Engine was hand polished and ported at the factory and the body was seam welded too. Those things, if they are not molested, are becoming quite collectible now. Sadly, many of them did get molested. They had too many years to he hacked on by now.

I had 00-141 only reason for my swap was one of the owners blew the c5... But damn if you are gonna swap K24a2 is awesome with the LSD 6 speed dc5 trans...I didn't see your 313 in the type r registry??

I sold it in 1999 to help buy my first house. Sigh...what a special car indeed

A 278 bhp Civic hot hatch = another nail in the FR-S's coffin...

The latest iteration of FF's don't lag behind FR's, so Toyota needs to get serious with their hardtop MX-5.

Nope as this civic won't make it here. But that frs sucks so bad on power. I really wanted one then test drove it and wasn't impressed at all by handling power or room. At 6'3" I barely fit in that thing......luckily I went with the 2014 370z...never looked back.

If they don't get 80hp via FI in the FRS ASAP?
The FR-S will be an EPIC FAIL by the next model year!!!
Without a turbo FR-S will stand for...
FORCED REDUCTION-SUCKS!

Front good, back bad. We'll never see it over here.

As for FA'd cars, I did own a '04 Cobra for a very short period of time. Intake, exhaust, no cats, and a canned tune. No idea what it put down. The gas mileage killed me because I was driving it over 100 mi per day.
