Must be a close cousin of the Civic 5.0 that I saw a few months back.
I also saw a chev astro svt one time on the highway, it was crazy fast. I tried to race him but my electric supercharger blew a fuse after I switched on my windshield washer leds for that extra bit of bling as I was trying to pass him, but alas it was not to be.

Check out what I spotted at the mall the other day



I don't think it was even a GT, though I'm not sure how to tell (it didn't say GT anywhere).

Where those GTR emblems were on the mustang, it would have a "GT" emblem if it was a gt, or a horse with red white and blue striped thingy behind it, if it was a v6 model.

Don't they already come with GT-R emblems? Can't you get the emblem from the 323 GT-R?

If I got the GT-R engine, the GTR Skyline emblem would be my second choice...I mean cause your not liing. It is a GT-R motor.
