the sedan is only 60 lb heavier and $200 more and a 2-in longer wheel base. same performance as the coupe. resale for the sedan down the road is also higher, and you dont have to get out of your car everytime somone gets in the back seat. in my opinion its not much of a choice.

[FGCOUPE]

Honda in my city has told me its 6k more for a Sedan Si then the Coupe Si, so i dont see where the hell it is you see 200.00 more?

then back to weight.....your telling me its only 60lb for x2 doors, x2 glass, more steel to make the 4-door ,etc...

ahaha

[dopes6070]

This is straight from Honda's site

Sedan:
Curb Weight (lbs., MT/AT) 2945 / NA
Weight Distribution (%, front/rear, MT) 60 / 40
$23060 Loaded

Coupe:
Curb Weight (lbs., MT/AT) 2886 / NA
Weight Distribution (%, front/rear, MT) 61 / 39
$23060 Loaded

The sedan is 59 lbs heavier. You gotta remember the coupe has huge ass doors and windows so the 2 doors weigh close to what 4 do. The sedan has better weight distribution and they cost the same. Go for the sedan and enjoy the fast car thats easier to live with.

[FGCOUPE]

damn....thats not what honda told me, my bad then?

wierd still/.

[dopes6070]

maybe your dealer thought you where talking about the normal coupe v.s. the SI sedan... Thats a big difference lol.

[FGCOUPE]

nope....we were talking specific Si only

odd man! hmmm

[FGCOUPE]

imho

si sedan looks like a ****in hotdog lawls

[dopes6070]

To me the profile view of the coupe just looks strange to me. The sedan I really like though It looks perfectly proportioned, and I like the sedan tails better.

[FGCOUPE]

put some mustard on that hot dog bitch! lawls!

nasty ass car....but to each thier own.

[strausor]

dont be bitter fgcoupe because you bought your coupe before they made a sedan.

[FGCOUPE]

i dont want a ****in sedan then...i surely dont want one now!

garbage!

[dopes6070]

exactly! The sedan is just a better overall car. You have to agree that its more practicle, just as fast and just as much fun as the regular SI. Even if you dont like the looks.

[FGCOUPE]

if you like the sedan, more to ya....fine!
but dont tell me im jealous when i hate 4-door shitboxes! lawls!

[dopes6070]

ill race you in my 01 sedan and see what happens haha

Sorry i just had to since you say shitboxes haha

[FGCOUPE]

your on....

bring that 01 sedan and race my 06 coupe.....ahah!

[dopes6070]

my 273whp would walk that like 190ish whp your making hehe

[FGCOUPE]

273whp you say eh.....got a dyno sheet to back this shit up little man?


...or is this coming from the Butt-dyno?

[dopes6070]

hahaha... Here ya go Its all on a little single cam D series tuned by Shawn Church!

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...arch&plindex=1

and here is some more reading

Results are in on page 10 @ 17 PSI now with vid!

[dopes6070]

still wanna race?

[FGCOUPE]

yea sure but 2 things....

1. you notice you have a badass smoking problem right? lawls!

2. Right after my 400HP S/C kit is dropped in...then **** ya ill tune that car!

lmao

[dopes6070]

its not smoke its oil vapor out of the valve cover breather. Its not a problem hehe.

If you drop a s/c kit on that engine and make 400hp with the stock internals I dought it would last long. 300 is closer to the average with a s/c k20

[FGCOUPE]

its a full build kit @ 400HP bruh'
with intercooler

and itll be faking fast! heheh!

[dopes6070]

what are you doing to the engine tho? and also you mean aftercooler if its a supercharger. Intercoolers are only for turbo cars.

[FGCOUPE]

Forged pistons, shaved head (if it can be done),matching gaskets, head bolts, rings, stronger valve springs, etc...

supercharger kit ontop ,and that outta do er'

already have 2.25" full exhaust, vforce axleback, CAI (i think that the CAI gets scrapped when installing the s/c though), plus all other mods ive done
such as suspension lowering, camber kit, VIS racing carbon hood, 18"rims on 40s, etc....

for appearance id like to get a wind splitter (Fr), and a difuser for the (Rr) and im not sure what to get for side skirts but i want it clean, no rice....
just to clean the sides up some son.

NO spoiler

Still need/want:
TWM short shifter kit
Vented discs w/Hawk pads


+more

[dopes6070]

well i can tell you now your 2.25" exhaust isnt going to cut it. I have a 3" exhaust on my car cause the 2.36" one that I had was killing the power. also why would you shave the head on a FI car you want as much metal there as possible for strength and you dont want to raise compression...

You need to do some more research before you make claims. Sorry but for now you get owned by the ultimate sleeper sedan! lol

[FGCOUPE]

even if i lost 20, 40 even 50 HP from my exhaust.....

ill still rape that sedan son.

[dopes6070]

We shal see. for now I still win and what you are doing is just talk. End of story. Dont be an E-Thug and try to talk down on what I have done. I've had a lot of blood and sweat go into my sedan and seriously, im prowd of it. Getting close to 300 hp is no small feat on a 1.7L single cam engine. If we race today I win AGAIN!

[dopes6070]

Ok this got into a pissing contest to fast im done.

[FGCOUPE]

See this the E-thug BS you speak of/....

you boost your car while mine is N/A, i say ok....ill do this race when i boost mine...fair is fair....

now you knock it? lol

i was tossing ideas out my ass in this post, no...i havent researched it quite yet, all i know is a s/c kit is coming my way sometime and thats it.

till then....you spend how much blood, sweat and tears for 100HP?
hmmm
