One of my friends up at Clemson has a twin charged civic putting out around 600hp on race fuel. It's absolutely ridiculous lol

Amazing how tuners and car owners go spending crazy over trying to make certain cars faster, yet here we see an old Civic walk all over the M3.

I'm jealous, but I still give much deserved credit to the Civic owner.

Thinking about it 10K can build a civic faster than an M3
1500 shell
500-1000 used coilovers
1500 for a B18B swap
2500-3000 Turbo
1000 misc engine parts
500 s2000-sir-gsr seats
500 brake conversion(gsr)
800 Wheels+tires
Not even ten grand and it's faster than an M3

Yup, and plus it's a heck of lot lighter than the current M3 (and many other modern cars).

That's also a significant advantage for the Civic.

It was crazy how he was using the 'inactive side lanes' on the hwy, so that he could make his passes.

I've never done that before.
