well thats good to hear about ur CEL i hate that ****... yea mine never came on so i dont think its going to especially after redlinin every gear last night up to 120 mph... ill def. beat him witout a passenger this time

 

You should hear his car hum when we're at a stop from the custom intake. Sounds seriously amazing. He's also got a performance chip in it. I think I can take him though. Hopefully.

 

Like some dude leaning out the car window shouting "VVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-TEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!1111oneone1!eleven"

 

^^ couldn't be more accurate then that ^^

 

hahaha

 

will i be able to beat a 240sx with an SR20-DET in it someone ?

 

Once my friend gets his clutch fixed (replaced), I will have an answer for you on that.

 

ok yea... i wanna know cause my boy is gettin it put in his 240sx and he said he'll **** on me with it but idk... anyone on here know ?

 

Just race and find out.

In my opinion you should have beaten the RSX-S by a lot more but it all depends on the driver/s.

Good kill. Maybe should be moved to war stories though.

 

we'll for the RSX-S i had a passenger.... and he also had light weight fly wheel

 

It'll be close. My friend's 240 is also gutted, he's usually just a hair slower than my other friend's 350z. I think it'll be a close race.

Edit: I am sure of one thing - the 240 should *definitely* be faster than the RSX-s, so make sure you're flying solo when you take him on.

 

At my school this kid with a rsx-s challenged me to a race of my choice, he's got an intake. I obviously have a ss s/c with the stuff in my sig. (including intake). I weigh about 165, and this kid is like 4' 11" 90 lbs!!! You guys think I can beat him?

 

i really doubt you were having traction problems from that high of a roll genius

 

if you can drive, you should never lose to one that isnt fairly well modified

 

i had a good friend that did the swap in his G-20 and let me tell you that thing could run. i never got to race him since he moved to germany before i got the ss but i think it will be a good race. im gonna say he might pull

 

Ok well I'll take that as a yes concidering I can launch really hard and shift without lifting the gas pedal, but now the question is, from a roll or from a dig? I am a drag racer myself so I like racing from a stop, but with first gear being so short, I don't know...

 

ok man, if you can launch well then obviously take it from a dig, thats their weak spot to begin with. and just because you can powershift doesnt mean you can drive well, and powershifting is more of a gain in the mind then it is on the street

 

how is it there weak spot? I'm sure they can go faster than 34 or whatever in first!

 

Its my opinion that in the average street car it does very little but hurt the car to shift with out getting off the gas. I perfer shifting "Normal". Its easier on the car and on the street just as fast.

 

I raced a type-s with a intake, and exhaust, from a 40roll, i had him by 4+ cars.

 

becuase they dont have any torque man, they arent into their powerband nearly as soon as an ss

 

260hp @6100 / 232 trq @ 3500-5000, they also weigh 3525lbs. My uncle has one of these, type S with the sequential whatever you call it transmission (auto tranny that wishes it was a standard). There is a 6-speed manual option available on the 2003 Type-S models, if this is the one he has you may be in for a bit of a fight. I've no idea what these cars dyno at, but if it's like all other honda's I'd expect WHP to be close to 220@ the wheels, with less then 200 trq to the wheels. If it's an auto you should beat it without much trouble, off the line they're pretty slow (no real way to launch it short of a neutral drop...and no one in their right mind would put their 3.2CL through that).

I've been in my uncle's car numerous times...they are damn nice cars.

 

Nice interior and exterior. His is auto but is still fast. Have to take him up on a race soon.

 

I ran 15.1 with a 2.3 60' shifting like a granny. Powershifting definaly helps.

 

i lost .1s at the track powershifting. practice enough and get your shifts quick...not that tough, just get into a rythm with the car
