hello

thank you for spending time on my topic..
no serious question...

just out of curiocity
tonite i raced my friends rsx(not S) and Teg LS n won
both got IHE n boltons..
after few runn,i drove 2 cars,

and i noticed my rpm goes up alot faster than rsx n LS,
is it BC my fly wheel is lighter than LS, RSX(reg) or
is it BC the way b16a runns..?

just trying to learn more about this little guy(b16a)'s nature

thank you

do you have aftermarket flywheels?

if so, then yes that's the way it should be.

my delsol keeps up with a rsx type s , the guy was walking away very slowly from me and all i had was an intake. The new cars are not that impressive powerwise to me, the power got better but the car also got heavy, oh and the integra ls is weaksauce, untill that motors gets put in a smaller car that ls aint nuthin.

or until you build the ls motor.. you dont have to put it into a smaller car.. ls motors are strong as hell as far as potential goes.. id rock on any day of the week

You also have significantly shorter gear ratios which will make your revs shoot up faster.

Do anyone know the weigh of the 07 si sedan n the coupe?

It lists 2880lbs on my registration card for my si sedan. So the coupe should be at 2820 lbs since the sedan is 60lbs heavier than the coupe.

What about the Del sol? much lighter I guess.

gurusan · 05-04-2007, 07:27 AM

Curb weight for the 2007 Si Coupe is 2886 lb.

It's a heavy bitch. About 6.55 kg per Hp hee hee

Brotz · 05-04-2007, 07:33 AM

I'd say the delsols are pretty heavy along with myself lol. I dont think I have ever found the correct wieght for the delsol but on my door panel the grw weight is 3000 lbs or something like that. i was going to take is to the dump yard where they wiegh your car before and after you get to the place to see how much junk you threw away lol

gurusan · 05-04-2007, 11:16 AM

nope..the Del Sol VTEC weighs about 2300 lb

About the same weight to power ratio.
