K-Swapped EG Civic Drag Races McLaren 620R // THIS vs THAT

The ultimate built vs. bought showdown? For our first round of HONDA VS HATERS, we've got a brand new, bone stock, track-ready, $350,000 McLaren 620R supercar facing off with a home-built, turbo K24-powered EG that was thrown together in a matter of days with borrowed parts. This is just the first round of HONDA vs HATERS and it only gets spicier from here!

BUNCH OF BIG FAT LIARS THOUGH. Although 650whp is possible in a stock block TSX... THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT CIVIC WEIGHS 2300lbs!!! THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT CIVIC NEEDS 650WHP TO BEAT THE MCLAREN!!! NO WAY IN HELL THAT MOTOR IS MAKING 650WHP!!! The lightest '92 Civic CX Hatchback completely stock from the factory, weighs 2094lbs. If you add a turbo kit, that adds 150lbs, so that's 2250lbs roughly. COMPLETE CAR W/FULL INTERIOR! BUT, this car has no hood, no front bumper, no front impact beam, no headlights, no rear bumper, no rear impact beam, no inner rear taillights, no mirrors, no interior, only a driver seat which is all sheetmetal. This car weighs something like 1800lbs! Yes, that's over 400lbs taken off!!! Even if you disagree, and go with half that, that's 2000lbs FLAT!!! Power to weight ratio, the car needs 350whp to beat a Mclaren with 560whp. If the Mclaren puts down 10% less than 620hp at the motor, so 560whp at the wheels... BUT, lets say the Mclaren puts down 620whp at the wheels, then the Civic needs 390whp to beat the Mclaren. Lets give the Mclaren a little bit of advantage on the shifting though (as Hondas shift INCREDIBLY fast) as the Mclaren does have a DCT. So, at most the civic needs 450whp... and that would be complete destruction on the Mclaren. Is 450whp doable... well, it's about the average setup on a k-series stock block with a turbo kit. My guess though, that civic has 400whp. Nothing special here. Please drive through. A fun drive through, at that.

I seriously doubt it was just tossed together and incomplete. That's just how Honda guys roll. Lots of Lies. Although 650whp is possible in a stock block TSX... THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT CIVIC WEIGHS 2300lbs!!! THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THAT CIVIC NEEDS 650WHP TO BEAT THE MCLAREN!!! NO WAY IN HELL THAT MOTOR IS MAKING 650WHP!!! The lightest '92 Civic CX Hatchback completely stock from the factory, weighs 2094lbs. If you add a turbo kit, that adds 150lbs, so that's 2250lbs roughly. COMPLETE CAR W/FULL INTERIOR! BUT, this car has no hood, no front bumper, no front impact beam, no headlights, no rear bumper, no rear impact beam, no inner rear taillights, no mirrors, no interior, only a driver seat which is all sheetmetal. This car weighs something like 1800lbs! Yes, that's over 400lbs taken off!!! Even if you disagree, and go with half that, that's 2000lbs FLAT!!! Power to weight ratio, the car needs 350whp to beat a Mclaren with 560whp. If the Mclaren puts down 10% less than 620hp at the motor, so 560whp at the wheels... BUT, lets say the Mclaren puts down 620whp at the wheels, then the Civic needs 390whp to beat the Mclaren. Lets give the Mclaren a little bit of advantage on the shifting though (as Hondas shift INCREDIBLY fast) as the Mclaren does have a DCT. So, at most the civic needs 450whp... and that would be complete destruction on the Mclaren. Is 450whp doable... well, it's about the average setup on a k-series stock block with a turbo kit. My guess though, that civic has 400whp. Nothing special here. Please drive through. A fun drive through, at that.

These two guys and their rides embody everything great about cars and car culture. Hoonigan crew killed it with this one. Way to go boys!

[@oldschoolvitin3860]

Very dope race!

[@justinmoore4088]

@Hoonigan Another kickass video!

[@CrashRacknShoot]

Those Honda guys are true-blue, top notch, badass dudes! Every time someone talked about the car it got better and better. Sold the wheels for gas money, trading lug nuts to the other race car, ebay turbos with a can-do attitude. Man, can't ask for a better mindset for racing. And props to the McLaren owner for actually using that car the way it was meant to be used. I bet that thing is a missile on the track.

This series has a ton of potential cause I found myself hating on Honda's and seeing this I gotta give them respect for how fast they can go. Also great to see Danger Dan back on the show

Very sick, street racing skills clear as day from that Honda driver. Respect on that shifting.

wow this video was deffentley great!!!!

This might be my favourite episode ever. Some straight up chill owners having a crack. No bullshit. And a bad ass honda being driven well. Bravo to all involved.

bad ass Honda from junkyard... Classic )

Been building Hondas since 97. I flippin love to see one eat up a super car. Never gets old.

[@robertreynolds930]

that roll race was ridiculous, i thought that mclaren might have a chance, NOPE!

[@willreed6155]

I've been building them too. But saying dumb shit like this makes me cringe. We both know it's a Honda chassis. With an entirely built engine. And gutted. 1000lb difference and more power...doesn't matter what car it is it will win.

[@willreed6155]

And my Hatch is pushing 700. End of the day I look out there and it's still a POS

@@willreed6155 do us all a favour and don’t build them if you don’t have an actual appreciation for them. Highly doubt you’ve built anything good with that attitude.

It's good to see Dan there with yall. He's definitely an important member of the Hoonigan family.
