I BELIEVE THAT 9 SECOND TALON WAS RUNNING ON STREET TIRES AND REGULAR PUMP GAS! THAT IS TRULY AMAZING! ALSO, DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE WEIGHT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DAILY DRIVER TALON AND THE CRX!

umm, they are definitely honda's that can run that fast on the street. it's so easy for them to swap engines into extremely light cars such as the CRX. the swap with the car you're talking about isn't uncommon. many people drop the H22A (dohc v-tec prelude) engine in crx's. the new swaps or atleast newest are the "new frankenstein" drop. it's a V-tec head i believe on a B20 bottom end (Honda CRV) http://www.c-speedracing.com/howto/b20vtec/b20vtec.html extremely effective i've actually heard of some people dropping the Supra engine into Lexus IS's now but i've yet to PERSONALLY confirm that. i do know people have swapped that engine into other cars though. the lexus on this page has the swap. and if you wanna see the meanest nine second daily driven car then check out SW's Supra. third one down http://www.turboimports.com/turcar.html

First off are you sure its el natural cuz I could have swarn it was lil natural. 2nd I believe it is quite possible for us to get respectable NA times. Look at the Neons for example there is a 10sec all motor neon and it still has the 420a. If we had someone mod out an eclipse it would be fast NA.
Yeah they drop supra engines in the SC and GS lexus series

There's a 10 second all motor neon?? How? Where? I don't see 10's as even possible. HRC Stage 5 is still in the 11's. Is this an all drag car that weights under 1500 pounds or something?

In regards to the reply about dropping a Supra engine in a IS... This type of swap shouldn't even haft to be done, after all the new IS 300's come with the 2JZ-GTE engines. Which is the same one that once came in the turbo'd Supras. Not trying to seem smart, just thought I'd let you know.
