Friend of mine has a hatch with a built gsr swap. I finally gained a little respect for hondas when I rode in it the other day. It runs pretty crappy (when it runs) but the engine takes the beating pretty good. The vtec when it kicks in is wierd/cool. He runs high 8s in the 1/8 mile with crappy negative camber. It has adjustable shocks and coilovers but still doesn't handle close to as good as my car handles (even with him having azenis and me having some cheap tires on right now), but it can launch better than a contour.
