As far as anybody knows, did Australia ever get a Honda Civic with a 2
litre engine?

A mate of mine recently saw a Civic with a 2.0 litre badge, checked the
rego and it was a '94 model. Unfortunately the car was gone when I asked
him to go back and get a photo of it for me.

Oh and he did manage to see that it was a GLi model.

I realise Widmer is a genius to say the least, but the fact he sees such
potential in them (and unlocks it) is not too bad imo.

I have to be honest - if I had the money to spare, I'd at least want to
try and replicate that. I'd also been damn keen on a honda powered mini
- motor chosen on weight not outright power - as even the shittest
motors could make a mini near untouchable on the street in any
conditions - not just on tight corners.

And before anyone else chimes in - the fastest mini I've ever heard
of/seen was rotary powered, and whilst I'd think that would be even
better, it would cost more to adapt so that's the only reason I'd go the
honda.

Don't know whether I've posted this before - but Honda S2000 plus a 'kit'
from TOO = mind blowing little sports car.
While I'm not sure whether he's done one for the S2000 because I don't know
which engine lives there, IIRC, 500BHP as suggested for the other engines
of similar config and size wouldn't be out of the question, and with the
easy solution to wheelspin included with the kit.
FAR superior to the BMW lump of crap, and all up about 60% of the price,
too.

'twould be a car that went as fast as it looked like it should for once,
too.

prolly a CRVTEC conversion job which comprises of using a CRV B20 block with
B18 (integra) or B16 (civic/crx) heads.

Cyborg's posts should be viewed as avant gard art, not attempts to
convey information :-)
