Originally posted by beemrmem3 You cant say 5.slow. They are way faster cars stock then any civic ever made. And you need a turbo to keep up. Lets see what happens when you put a turbo tech kit on a 5.0. Oh look at those 12 sec time slips. My car runs 14.4 with just exhaust. And i can post the time slip to back it up. Id like to see any civic do that with just exhaust. You all say domestic cars are slow. But you have to spend 5000+ to beat them. Spend that on my car ill be deep into the 11s.
Ha... 14.4 is slow for what you have... a V8 right?? Well if its a V8 you have or even a V6.. you'll get an ass kick'n by a tiny naturally aspirated 1.8 4cyl. straight off the lot... and if you put an exhaust on that it will beat you more.... An Integra Type-R will show you how its done.... so until you get yourself faster than a naturally aspirated 4cyl 1.8liter.. just keep quiet.....
oh yeah.. I can post timeslips... and videos... I even have a video of one running a 13.9... stock engine.. ha..
I call BS again. A totally stock Type R is not going to run faster then a 14.4. And if you think it is. Your an idiot. And adding exhaust isnt going to yeild more then 5hp on a type R, without a header.(i still have stock headers) Maybe you would like to think its going to. Plus your comparing a new top of the line integra model to a GT not a new Cobra. Lets see the type R was made tell 2001. Wel a 2001 cobra is proven to be a 13.4@103mph car. I dont even think a Type R with a turbo could do 103mph in the 1/4. And look at your GSR. That model is more comparable to the GT model cause its in between a LS and Type R. Wow you run high 15s with alot more mods then me. Spend a few grand on a turbo and you might be down with me.Also i did 14.4 with 3.08 gearing in the rear end, you guys have to use differential gears in the 4s so it will even go a 100. And Id like to see you drop a type R engine in a mustang and see how fast it goes. Haha that would be funny going from a little car with almost no power options or A/C that weighs 2600 pounds. To a car That has every available option, is comfortable and weighs 3400 pounds. It wouldnt even move with that engine in it. Putting down 160hp and 120ftlbs at the wheels. Well my car puts down 227hp and 280ftlbs of TQ to the wheels. Thats not anything special but it gets the job done. The reason honda puts such high compression small displacement engines in there cars is because of emissions over seas. The would use bigger engines if they were able to, but its cheaper for them this way. Why do you think accords and what not have 4cylinders over there. And theres supras with 2.0 turbo engines. Plus you guys need to use insane compression like 11 to 1, to even come close to domestics(which mostely use in the 9 to 1 range) and have fun adding a good amount of boost to such high compression. You think you have such high technology. But all it is is lightweight cars, with small displacement with high gearing and high compression ratio. If my car had 11 to 1 compression and cams to match that. It would be putting out just as much hp per litre. And that is your guys's only arguement also. hppl. I guess it makes you feel better when you loose. Ill race any stock honda or acura with just exhaust anywhere. Even an s2000 (excluding an NSX with an 80,000 tag on it)
Also my car has just as much TQ per litre as you guys do. The reason you have more hp per litre is cause of the high revs. And my car can be changed cheaply to rev almost as well as you guys. New set of head and a cam(1200 bucks). Its not technology that helps you. We all have internal combustion, nothing has changed in awhile. So what if i have pushrods. Top Fuel dragsters use pushrods and they push 1000hp per litre. 7000hp out of an 8.2litre engine.

gee that is funny i have seen a stock type r with a muffler run a 13.7. Oh yeah i almost forgot, my untechnologicalized honda with an exhaust runs a 14.1, on 4 cylinders, not 8 and not 6. So, Mr high and mighty V8 mustang man get the fuck out little penis. Dont come back, *****!
Ya, you saw a Type R with a muffler huh. I thought they came stock with mufflers?? If what you meant was just a noisy as chrome muffler, it probably didnt make a difference. Just a muffler probably wouldnt gain any hp. And it deffinetly wouldnt run a 13.7. It would have to have more then 190 engine hp and be able to get off the line. Sorry thats not happening with a street tired front wheel drive car. And dont say FWD hooks better then RWD. If i were you My_car_is_slow. I would shut my mouth. You just sound stupid. Why dont YOU get the fuck out.
The bottom line is a Type R doesnt have the traction or power to run faster then a 14.5

put it on the line, i will race you any day. you name the time and place, i will be there, you will lose. nut sac. as a matter of fact come to tulsa oklahoma i know of several 4 cylinder cars that will leave a tad behind. nut sac.
Ummmm, if im not mistaken this is a Honda forum, and Honda based website. I don't have anything against domestics, there wonderful cars in a straight line, you try to turn it and your fucked. Don't go off on me know beemrmen3 cause you know its true. Anyways, if you love domestics so much why are you in a honda forum?

There's more to a car than just raw power. American Cars obviously are great straight aways. Last time I checked, most roads aren't straight. When it comes to handling, I think everyone would agree with me that Japanese Cars are much better than American Cars.
Also, if what you think that Japanese's technology is basically light weight and high reving. um... How is that not a good thing?? If I can achieve the same performance with less fuel and weight, why not??.. I believe is call efficency. And if you don't call that technology, then why are American Cars always trying to cut down on their weight .(ex. Corvette's latest Z06 is the lightest ever made, I believe) I am not trying to diss American Cars, cuz they do have great power, and great value. But I just think that there are so much more to a car than just raw power. Just my 2 cents... and let's stop the flaming...
That is cool. In response to the newbie, I have been a member of this board for quite sometime under different names 1_qwk_si was the first 99bluesi1 was the second and now this one, you know about 2 years. I am not trying to flame the newbie comment just making it known. This IS a honda forum, you dont like it get the fuck out.

So you will race me anytime huh. I dont think your 15.7@89mph is going to hold up to well. And american cars not being able to handle is a common misconception. I hold my own and beat many stock suspension imports at the AutoX(i have stock suspension also) Ive owned an Integra a and 2 talons. And stock for stock i can honestly say my GT handles the best. It has less role and just grips better. It even has the worst tires out of all of them. Show me any new performance domestic car that doesnt handle good. I know the new cobra handles excellent. Not to mention the Z06 is pretty much the best handling car stock. Along with the Viper. Why do you think you see the C5R winning lots of the Le Mans seriers races. Not just because of the power. A stock Z06 Handles over 1g. I dont know of any import that handles that good. And the new cobra is in the .9x range as well. At every autocross ive been to most of the top ten were domestic. More so then imports. And more imports how up to the events. I will say the Type R is a good handler though. As well as the NSX and S2000. But there are alot of Domestic cars that are better. Im not trying to flame just giving facts. And MYCARISSLOW you honestly think you can beat me. How do you think your going to pull that off without cheating somehow. I do like imports i just hate alot of the ignorant people that drive them. If they lose they say, well we have better horsepower per litre. Or, lets hit the corners. When the fact is. STock Carmaros, Corvettes, and Mustangs handle better then a majority imports coming over here. Just because a car is light doesnt mean it can handle. ITs about suspension. Vipers have insane handling, they arent all that light. Get your facts straight. Plus when your on the streets, no one races around corners anyway. TAke that to the track. And my car averages 21mpg not bad for the power its putting out.
PS, and technology has not improved that much there were 1.5litre engines in F-1 cars 20 years ago making a 1200hp at insanely high revs. And its not like domestic cars dont know how to do this,Have you ever heard of Ford/Cosworth cars.
