TS John Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Just to dispell the rumors: French women don't shave. They wax. They are hot. I was there. The red light district is okay. I was there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B16A3DelSolVTEC Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 I was looking into it the other day when i was sitting in the hotel with my wife yesterday and im going to give her my car and invest in buying a FiT... haha but im going to let her drive it until the warranty has expired, then its my turn to tinker with it... haha.. cant wait.

CleanGSR Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Yeah, the fit is super slow. You'd have to swap motors to make it fast and it has a really tiny engine bay. You will definately be either sadly dissapointed with the performance or in huge debt in making it fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnyjc3 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 you know on the bright side. unlike the sol at least with the fit you can take 4+ of your friends out for a night, to go where i dont know, however i can assure you that slowly but surely youll get there - in time that is.

shishpanik Posted October 9, 2006 Author Share Posted October 9, 2006 Fit would be a great AutoX car imho. If you can just churn 150whp (probably possible with a small turbo) and make a lot of suspension upgrades it'll handle amazingly (especially since it already handles like a high-performance car according to road and track, edmunds inside line, etc.).

mycarsux Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Kidding me? A neon is a better AutoX car than a Fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanGSR Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I agree. Do you realize that the fit weighs about 2500 lbs....the same as a del sol. Not only that but the del sol has a lower center of gravity than the taller fit. It wouldn't be a bad autox car seeing as a 150whp del sol with great suspension would be great at autox, but it's still not a good enough hp/weight ratio to dominate the class it would be in with all those suspension mods and aftermarket turbo.

mycarsux Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 But keep in mind that AutoX depends like 90% on the skill of the driver. I saw somewhat modded neons (no muffler, suspension, tires, wheels, massive weight reduction) have better runs than a highly modded civic si (which i rode in ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 if you buy a fit, please do not try and make it fast. thats like boosting a hybrid. some cars are made for tuning, others are made for family/great gas mileage. granted the D gets great mileage as well, but the del sol is a sports car IMO.

Pballer2005 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 thats like boosting a hybrid. LOL when i read that i imagined a prius with a big ass turbo and still being slow as hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 It would be sweet to get an Insight and gut it and drop a GSR in there. I wanna do that once they're on the market cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanGSR Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Actually Clutchmasters has a full out drag insight. I'm not sure what motor it has but it runs sub 10 seconds I believe. Oh, and if we want to just say that 90% of the autox is based on driver skill (I agree), then there's no point in even talking about what cars are better autox cars.

B16A3DelSolVTEC Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I know they are slow that is why my wife is going to drive it until the warranty has expired then i was planning to put a K20A in it or maybe a K24... dont know yet, we'll see when the time comes... I want to have a fast Honda family car. that is small but yet has enough room for a family of at least 4 and is kind of cheap, like the FiT... if you think about it it has great potential...

CleanGSR Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 The 4 door SI will come with the same K20Z3 as the Coupe Si. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B16A3DelSolVTEC Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 I'm just going to get the FiT Sport because I'm buying it in December(after AIT)... I was wondering if i could get away with it if i bought a lowering kit for it and not void the warranty... plus im going to buy wheels... and it comes with a sport exaust so i'll be fine with that...

B16er Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Yeah the new 4 door Civic Si are the same in every way to the 2 door, just with 2 more doors and a little extra weight. Still 6 speed, k20 and limited slip. Man alive I want one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
