Honda-Tech...the truth hurts..

Hey guys, My username just officially got banned from honda-tech because they couldn't take it anymore on how i proved the Cobalt SS beats the RSX-S in everyway possible. They called the cobalt a 15 second supercharged cavy. I chuckled and told them i would take one of those over a dressed up civic anyday. They just can't admit it that the cobalt is better. Period.

Yes, they do it on the Civic SI forums too. They all say their Civic SI whoops ass over the cobalt SS/SC. Then they laugh about how unreliable the cobalts are... Then they moan and groan about the power steering leaks, the rear main seals needing to be replaced (oil leaks.) and all the squeaks and rattles. hehe.

Wow that sounds exactly what goes on at every single forum, including this one. Sad thing is, is that SS doesn't beat the RSX in every thing possible.

Ok, every performance related thing. Road & Track compared the cobalt and the rsx-s, and the cobalt won in every performance catagory, and lost in all the comfort catagories, the thing is I gut my car when I go to the track, so comfort is the last thing I'm worried about.

Well I went up against a CIVIC SI three times and won every time. but the car is dam fast and very close to our stock performance and it is N/A. I am not a hatter of any cars especially this one. The owner was so cool too. The civic SI did a 14.9460 1/4 when I raced him. I actually seen him do a 14.8. these cars are not slouches. If there is a turbo kit available for these cars then we will be in deep trouble. but they are expensive too.

And I bet RSX owners bought their cars for resale value, reliability, nicer interior, arguably better looks and being able to run 12s ALL MOTOR with out opening the motor.

Let's not start a flamewar here. And I hope the original poster didn't go over to the RSX forums just to start stuff, because that'll make us all look bad.

Well if it's so great then sell your car and buy one.

I have heard that they are a little smoother handling than us. Not that I really care, they are both nice vehicles that are cut short by many. I prefer Chevy, but the RSX is not a bad car.

yeah as soon as the RSX loses its V-tec and much higher cr ratio. The LSJ was built with bost in mind--take off the S/C and you will be at an in totalyy unfair advantage.

But maybe thats what you want?

You can compare what ever you want. Keep in mind the S/C SS is cheaper--about $7K cheaper in Canada

Yeah I think they banned you because you were just a ******* troll.

Please don't do that as it gives us a bad image. The RSX S has its pros and cons just as the cobalt does. I think the RSX S does pretty well for a N/A car. Now I am reminded as to how some of the ss.net members give cobalt ss owners a bad rep.

Agreed. So what if the stock for stock comparision shows us being better. They are both sweet cars. No hating here.

agreed. to even say, "take the s/c out of the cobalt and then race" just shows your lack of knowledge on cars. the lsj was built for boost as the rsx is built for high compression n/a engine. don't get me wrong, you can still boost the rsx but that's not the case here.

Of course they are going to think their car is better, that's why they bought it. Kind of lame to go to their board and talk **** about how your car is better.

The new Civic SI deserves more credit than some of you are giving it. At the track last week I saw two of them run around a 14.5 which was a second faster than some of the SS/SC that were there. True, there were some Cobalts that were faster but, they weren't even close to stock.

I cruise Honda-Tech once in a while myself but mostly in Kills. The site is called Honda-Tech so yeah they are going to be a bit biased towards their cars.

every site is like that to an extent... everyone thinks their car is the best, or they wouldn't be posting about it on a car forum... if you go on any site and say your car is better, of course it's gonna open up a can of worms....
