If they are driving anything thats actually worth racing, they destroy the accord.

I like the effort and time spent on swapping the drive train.
I don't like the body kit or the fact that it's still naturally aspirated after all that work.
But, It's not my car. It's the owners car and if it makes him happy and he loves it! Power To Him!!!

i never thought it was all that ricey to be honest. yeah, the body kit is kinda corny, but it was well fitted, and the paint job is VERY nice. but the interior sucks. lol

it definitly didn't sound like a major rice mobile

I like it except the rear bumper.. And those H22's are strong motors... I would 50 shot it and run down many cars.

Looks pretty ricey to me, but that's just my opinion. Good job on the motor/tranny swap, but the exterior is awful.

I'm more of a all go no show kinda guy and that screams a lot of show and some go, not my thing personally. But if it were done tastfully then it would have been sweet but its overdone.
