Me vs a Civic HB w/GSR engine.....etc.
Tonight I had the best run or most fun run ever. I was on my way to the store when I roll up to the light and I see a 92-95 HB Civic w/ GSR engine, exhaust, intake and what ever else it had. I over heard him talking to the guy right next to him saying that he had ran at the local 1/8 mile track and had pulled a 9.3 Anyway the light turns green and away we go. We had to shut it down a little early at around 60mph since we were coming up on a another light. I was maybe 1/2 a car length ahead when we stopped. We did one more run from around 15mph to about a 100mph and I put 1 1/2 car lengths on him. I'm happy with the results that I got. Anyway tell me what you guys think. Should I have beat him worse or did I do pretty good.

We talked at the second light and he told me he had a GSR motor swap. I could see his exhaust and I just assumed that he had an intake also. I didn't get a chance to talk to him anymore since he turned off the main road after we started to slow down.

Sounds like it adds quite a bit more power to them though.

Yeah I think the GSR motor swap itself puts the Civic at around 14.7 or maybe a little lower in the 1/4 mile. Mybe I'm wrong though. I know for a fact this guy I know in Florida has the swap done and a whole list of other mods and he runs mid 13's.
