if you had to fabicate things to get it to work then its heavy modified. its when its a direct bolt on or direct bolt in when its not heavy

Just an FYI, 95% or so of all honda swaps done are direct bolt in using all oem parts (or at least can be), no custom anything. The rest are either completely bolt in using aftermarket purchased mounts with little or no custom work required.

i said some heavy modded rides. a motor swap is in the terms of heavy modded. i know of a 15 civic that was heavy modded and so does yourself.
and again arent they all boosted?

Swapped NA hondas run 14’s very easy, 13’s with a little work, 12’s with a little more, and 11’s if you go heavy modded. Vince ran 11’s all motor. My car made numerous passes in the mid to low 12’s all motor and there is at least one more 12 flat all motor honda on here.

and new those cars didnt cost nothing, but today with economy civics are now 20k cars. i deffently wouldnt pay 20k for a cavalier or especially a civic its foreign cousin, both are eco cars. drive them a few years and ditch them

Have you even ever looked at a civic interior compared to a same or comparable year GM product? I drove to wrok today in a 94 Lumina (wifes soon to be ditched car), the interior design and build quality is SHIT compared to a 94 civic or the 95 integra I usually drive.

you dont see too many old personal driving these little cars and showing them off or etc. ever go to a car show and not a fushion deal? youll see most rides there are of the older status or muscle,classic, modern performance with older personal. then you go to fushion and see young personal with civics and etc

Do you have a point here? The “classic” cars they show off are typically from the time they were young and either wished they could have owned those cars or else did own and drove the wheel off them. So of course they are not typically modifying a car that came out in their midlife that they have no attachment to. Funny thing is, tons of those people showing off their classic muscle cars park them during the week to drive their camry’s, accords, civics, etc and not mid nineties pieces of GM crap.
