Hey guys,
My friend has a 2000 GS-R. He just got his 50 shot (I think) NOS system set up and he asks me if I want to race. I just started laughing. My car is bone stock right now. He has NOS, AEM CAI, Greddy Evo, DC Sports header, fuel rail, AEM Pulley and other little stuff. So I was like yeah whatever.
We started off and I had absolutely no shot. I was behind the entire race, even from the very get go. By the end of the race I was like 3-4 car lengths behind.
Our civics are soooooooooooooooo slow.

I really wish I had my 2000 Si back. That car was actually pretty quick now that I think about it.

My point of this is I will never ever believe anything I read about our civics beating any reasonably fast car.

wut did u expect ? especially with a stock civic? our cars are like 126-27 Hp but that's the beauty of our cars you can obtain the speed that u want and that's wut makes it fun if u wanted a fast car (stock) get a viper

you scare the f*ck out of me......you got spanked by a car that has 172 hp stock + 50 shot of NOS + all the best bolt-on parts, and you're surprised??????....you think you're si would have done much better?????!!!!!!.......i can't even write any more....ahhhhhhhh

I scare the f*ck out of you huh? Ok where in my post do I ever say I had a shot at winning. I started laughing because I knew I was going to lose. However after reading the insane stories of everyone racing everything I thought why not. I thought I would save you the embaressment of trying to race something. Our civics will probably never beat any fast car. Not now at least. And before you flame me anymore about a civic being slow, it is slow, and I wouldn't have bought one if I didn't like it.

I can't believe you actually thought that I believed I would win. Wow, now that would be scary.

And yeah by the way, I think my 2000Si was fast, faster than probably every 2k1 right now.

i am pretty sure a stock gsr can mess up a stock ex ..even without the 50 shot

hey dont hate on him...hes not like all the others that are like "I beat a GSR!"

he didnt spray did he...cuz if he did I think it would be more than 4 car lengths, I can wallop a 2k1 EX with my Si by 4 car lengths (my friends anyways)

 
Rep Power: 0

neo...u get 4 cars on a 2k1 ex? explain that one....a si only has like a 30hp advantage, 30hp dont = 4 car lengths...at least i dont think so? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

my friends 2k1 EX is auto, with greddy evo, 17's aem sri and eibach springs
my si is stick with VAFC, custom exhaust, custom intake and gc coilovers.

Needless to say as soon as im in 2nd gear its lights out.

4 lengths sounds about right for a Si vs 2k1. Even though it's only a 30hp difference, the Si is ratioed very different in gears and final drive ratio. It's also a DOHC and has much larger race cam lobes on its cams than the 2k1. Si's go into mid 15's stock, and you know what the 2k1's do stock. That's enough for several car lengths easy. To be honest, A GSR should have beaten your 2k1 by well more than 3-4 lengths... although what speed did you race to? (i remember GSR's beating my Si by several lengths) And his GSR is fairly modded.... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Mid 15's get a three car length lead over me eh?

When I started slowing down I was at about 80, so I guess that would be close to a quarter mile.
I talked to my friend and he didn't spray,
Towards the end of the race, he was really really starting to pull away.
If we would have gone to a 100, it would have probably been more than 7 car lengths.

I think my 2000Si might have been able to keep up fairly close, what do you think S2000???

Dude Si and GSR is drivers race stock for stock...once you mod its all on the quality of your parts...B18C1 only has 10hp more and a tad more torque

 
Rep Power: 400

yeah I think the GSR responds to mods well. My Si was stock when I raced my friend's modded GSR. Yeah by 100 it probably would have been more lengths. But I see stock GSR's getting very low 15's. how good of a driver is your friend? Si vs GSR is possibly a driver's race... but more wins will go the GSR fairly easy. Again, all comes down to gearing, etc. And remember they have a dual stage intake manifold.. it's like having two VTEC points. So yeah, I think your friend needs to learn to drive his GSR. lol. I mean it sounds like he's fairly modded. Is your civic stock??

yes...an Si will put 4 cars on an EX ...i'd say it'll take till the top of 3rd to get 4 cars....but..when i raced a modded 2k1 in my Neon, I had 2 cars by 3/4 way thru 2nd...I had 1 car easily in 1st, another by the top of 2nd, and in 3rd I probobly would have put another 2 cars on him....or more...

my shadow...would have put 4 cars on him in 1st gear alone...lol..well..not really...i'd say about 2.5-3 by my shift to 2nd...

WTF,,,your an idiot,,,,he barely even went 80...(thats not even a 1/4).....therefore,,,,the SI would be right next to sohcvtech.....

its all about the engine trevor.

Even if they were doing a 1/4, w/ equal drivers, The Si would not be alongside the 7th gen. It would be in front of it.

Extra cam, geared for performance, the list goes on and on. Look at the new 2k2 Si. It's heavier than the 7th gen coupe, yet it still pulls faster (supposedly only .2 secs but that has yet to be seen and will probably be faster). Screamin is right while the EX is luggin around 100 and up, the Si keeps going...by the time Im in 5th gear were talkin 120+...fastest Ive personally been was 135.

You wanna go by 1/4th mile times? Click here and search for Honda Civic Si The slowest 1/4th posted here for the 6th gen Si is 14.984 compared to sohc's what 15.7? Like I said...its all about the engine.

My friend has a 2001 GSR and just ran the 1/4 mile for the first time ever last Fri. night. Ran a 15.6 w/AEM CAI and Tanabe racing medallion exhuast. I thought that car could do better than that. Am i right or what?

Anyone know the weight of a GSR?

Is your friend good at stick?

15.6 seems extremely slow for a GSR with those mods, it's not an auto is it???

Didn't know a GSR came in auto. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Anyways, that time sounds acura-te (hehe) to me cuz he needs an exhaust. But I do think he could do better. Tell him to run again. An exhaust should make that # look a lot better.

of course they don't come in an auto silly,
that's just my lame, very lame sense of humor
I just meant that seems really really slow for that car.
I'll try to see what my buddy does in the 1/4 mile
LOL
