Damn, you guys are lucky. The highschool I went to had nothing but early model cars except for the rich kids who drove bimmers and benzes and always wanted to race the kids who had civics and laugh at them. That is when I was into modifying, and there is nothing more fun at beating a rich kid in his bimmer with a integra Type-R. Lots of kids thought that the type-r badge on my friends car was ricy little did they know that it was the real thing. I didn't have a car then, but here is the list of my friends cars.

Honda accord: Euro-R swap.
Acura Integra Type-R
Honda Civic SI: Type-R conversion
Honda Prelude type SH: Turboed
Mazda RX-7TT: Fully modified Way over 300+hp
Toyota SupraTT: Fully Modified Way over 300+hp
Nissan 240sx/S14: Fully modified Way over 300+hp

those are just to name a few...It was priceless beating rich snob kids.
