If it's that freaky, then either your friend needs to chill, or you have something else broken on the car. I'd give it a one over if I was you

:screwy: Unless you have an F1 engine, there's no way a Honda 1.5L can pull like you're describing :bs:

I bet a heavily boost D15b could pull like that. I had to hold on to my steering wheel pretty tight when VTEC hit while I was in boost on my d16z6 and the JDM d15b has 5 more hp then the z6. Then again I realized after being turboed for like 2 months that I was running 10psi.

But he's not boosted, and he has a VX engine.

Yeah I gathered that, I was just implying that basically the only way you could get the results that he is explaining is boosting or seriously seriously wasted NA engine work, cause boltons aint gonna do shit on that engine.

I was meaning when VTEC hits, if you are retarded enuff to lose control when that happens you dont need to be driving.... I have felt pot holes pull harder thatn VTEC...
And as far as loosing control of a FWD, I have never done it, I know its possible, seen it happen in a Accord while racing a S2000, flipidy flip flip flip.....

I think somone has never driven anything bigger than a 4 banger, my advice to you is get yourself in somthing with a V6 or V8, in a big parking lot and have fun but dont kill yourself. After that get back in the 90hp 4 banger and tell me if it pulls.....

Also my civic has a D16Z6, I could sit in a parking lot and do smoke shows all day long...... And I could also burn through 1st.... 2nd..... as long as I want..... and chirp the tires in 3rd gear.

OH YEAH P.S. I HAD SHITTY ASS STOCK TIRES THAT WERE ROCK HARD AND HAD BEEN BLEACHED ABOUT 30 TIMES....

Take your car to a pro honda shop and have them fix it and buy some new tires......

Now thats all I have to say......!

im not saying its crazy nos/turbo/sc pull, its just enough to be very noticable and to freak out someone who doesnt know its about to pull... i dunno i just wanted to say its freakin weird how it pulls harder than my del sol.

Well, not to spoil your fun or anything, but a D16Z6 powered del Sol doesn't "pull" at all... it just kinda rolls along. To say a D15Z1 powered Civic pulls harder is just sad.
