Tough call, assuming the Accord is a 4 banger like our civics. They have 30 more hp but lose to us 600 pounds in weight. If he's an auto and your a stick, you'd probably win for sure. But if both are sticks, I'm assuming better driver. Plus his mods probably did his car better than your mods, b/c modding our cars give us crap.

i raced my stock LX coupe against my friend's accord coupe. He has some sort of exhaust (not sure if it's a cat-back or just the muffler). I beat him, not by much but I did...

Yep, agree 100%.

AT 4cyl 6th gen Accord=AT 7th gen Civic EX.

I have been side by side with several AT 4 cyl Accords of this generation racing from a stop.

dont try if his accord is a 7th gen accord. You'll get owned pretty badly for sure. 6th gens are considerably slower than the 7th gen accords.

There's a 1 in 100 chance his car is stick. The 98-02 accords (6 bangers) only came with automatics. The 4 bangers came with 5spd manual, but thei're so freaking rare.... I know this because my friend is trying to find a 4 banger with 5spd, and he's looking for about 2 months now.

Yeah Accord SE's are autos, just like Integra SE's. SE's have the base engine's but with power this and that and CD and all that extra weighted stuff.
