My Mini Cooper S (John Cooper Works) will waste all over your rice burners YO! (its in the works, at $15,000, just need alittle more. I don't get loans, just buy it out right.)
But honestly, anyone who puts a body kit and doesn't do anything to make the engine better, deserves to be shot, honestly.
Putting bigger wheels on an accord will just make it slower, there is no point in doing it unless you do engine modifications. I'd save the money for the wheels and body kit, and buy a turbo instead. (maybe thats just me)

I'd rather have a rusted out honda civic that had a turbo in it than a honda civic with no rust, that just had a body kit.

Honda's are designed as a economical car
So making them 'fast' not only defeats the purpose of the car, but it's also pointless as it will never be as fast as any F-BODY or any rustang...
Now if you like that kinda crap then its your car, more power to you. But think about it a bit, not only are heavier wheels going to hurt your gas milage then going to hurt your get up and go power..-Robert Norton

I've got my little weekend warrior 1987 Buick Grand National.
www.forcepc.com/DSCF0101.JPG
So far current modifications: Mostly Bolt-Ons
TE-61 TurboCharger
Stretch & Large Neck 15 Row Intercooler
Walboro 307 Fuel Pump
K&N 9" Airfilter w/custom cool air intake.
Street & Race chips
Ported & Polished Throttle Body
MSD 50 LB fuel injectors
206 Cam
Modified Valve Springs
Becool High-Flow radiator
3" Solid mass airflow pipe
3" Exaust crossover (header to header)
3" Downpipe
3" Test Tube (Removed CAT)
2.5" Dual Exaust
Upgraded Springs & Shocks
Weld Wheels with meat on the back.
Probably good for a 10 second time slip, haven't had it to the track in a while since additional upgrades, and last time was in the mid 11's
I get ricers who pull up next to me often, and they always try to race me, I couldn't count all the ones i've blown off the road with only 1/2 throttle.

It's funny when I see ricers take out their back seats to remove some of the weight.. only to put in a 100 pound stereo system and wet nitrous kit...
don't believe what you see in the movies, a honda isn't the fastest car in the world... acura is a step up from honda, though not as customizable, they're nicer and faster to begin with)
a 94-95 5.0l v8 mustang with the proper mods can take any ricer...or if you get a older monte carlo and drop a 350 in it, that's some scary ****.
I wouldn't mind getting a new mustang mach1 and supercharging it myself - otherwise just getting the cobra.
I hate ricers.... so much.

by the way, if you're getting a new muffler, don't ****ing get a fart muffler. I hate these honda's driving around with these 4 inch exhausts that sound like someone farting. such a horrible sound, you need to get something that sounds mean, not some 75 year old that can't control theirself.I specialize in neck beards

heh! It seems like everyones going after me and my Honda. First, as I mentioned in previous posts, I could care less about speed. I know my Honda isn't fast and I know tons of cars are faster. But do I care? Nope! Not one bit.
mg- - I know what you mean with those mufflers. I get annoyed sometimes when I hear people driving by with bad and super loud mufflers. When I get mine it'll probably have a silencer in it.

I don't care if it's loud.. just has to be a natural loud, not a horrible honda loud. I love the sound of a loud european/american car.. asian cars are just weak as hell

Beautiful car..
Unfortunetly I can't find a Regal, let alone a GN that hasn't been screwed with in my price range.
Need some better wheels though ..

That entirely depends...
There are ricers out there who can pull an easy 700HP out of their stupid little four cyl. Problem is they have to go rebuild it every 10 seconds..
I'm a huge ford fan, but from the factory Camaro's (like the older Iroc's) depending on the engine and tranny and all will whipe a mustang clean.-Robert Norton

Last time when I raced a friend of mine who has '89 convertible V8 Mustang, I was able to be about a car lenght ahead of him (3rd gear) - I have a superharged '00 Toyota Solara.
By the way, that Mustang is currently for sale, if you are interested PM me and I will pass you some pictures.

For the same price as you guys mod your cars, you can get a used vette'.
And that will beat any ricer!
