Default EF Sleeper

Does anyone know where to find a write up on a certain red ef hatch with a gsr swap? I remember seeing it about a year ago on some honda forum... It was a total sleeper, it looked stock and was ultra-clean.

Thanks!

Yes, I also know what you car you are talking about, and that was possibly the ultimate civic sleeper in my mind. But i can't remember what forum it was on. Would like to see it again.
Thanks

Honda-Tech, if it's the one I'm thinking of... looked literally bone stock, both inside and out?

yeah its somewhere on honda tech, even the engine bay looked stock cuz the turbo was hidden and the exhaust had an almost stock size muffler so you wouldnt kno it was a turbo catback. not the fastest civic ever but definitely one of the better sleepers i've seen. i'll see if i can find it

altho i saw a 88-91 hatch that looked rusted and bummy but raped my friend's wrx, flames came out his exhaust and he took off after he toying with the wrx neck and neck at 90mph, any car that can "take off" while already going 90 has some good power. that thing was a crazy sleeper, it looked even worse than stock haha, looked like it was bout to fall apart any day

thats an awesome sleeper but maybe i was thinking of another one. the one i was thinking of was a red ef that was turboed but even the turbo was hidden (by doing stuff like running the turbo piping inside the stock intake and stuff like that) so it just looked like the stock engine under the hood, the only thing that looked kinda outta place about it were the tires if you looked real close since who puts summer tires on an average looking stock ef.
