My freind has a stock 98 GSR, and we ran when I had my I/E. It was dead even until about 60 when I shifted into 3rd gear and he started to pull. He said that his 3rd gear is like another second gear, meaning it is that powerful. I highly doubt you beat a GSR, let alone in third gear. Nice try man, LOL.:zbsflag:

It funny how people are so quick to call BS when some one post that he/she beat a supposidly Faster car. where when I or some one like me who autocrosses posts some thing like " I just beat an SRT-4" every ones like ... Oh thats all driver..
My point here is All racing is driver. be it autocross road racing or drag racing. Sure some cars give drivers an advantage, but if that driver doesn't use that to its utmost then it gives so called lesser cars more of a chance.
remember Racing is about beating the other driver, not beating the other car.

Rep Power: 401 races are all about the driver yes, no getting around it. you put someone who cant drive a stick in a viper, i could beat them in my automatic civic. but comparing cars, you put a driver down the 1/4 mile strip his will be faster in a GSR than a civic. so assuming these 2 drivers are about the same, the integra will win.

Rep Power: 0 OMG.....i just noticed.
Hey guys....its N2O not NO2.
D00d that's plannin on doint he nitrous thing, just make sure you read up REAL good before you go spray happy.
I think u mentioned somethin bout only spraying while ur pushin the button, well that's one way to do it. But the more common way to do it nowadays is to hook up a microswitch and have the kit spray automatically at WOT. (If you have a window switch it will spray at WOT between certain # RPM's).
Like i said, please please please do your research!!

Rep Power: 489 I know I know... I think I got it mixed up with the NOS. NO2 does look similar to NOS. Yeah. I know it's N2O, I noticed that the other day.
I personally am far more interested in pressing the button rather than setting it off automatically. I don't want to spray all that much, hardly ever really... and only when I really need it (I don't race frequently). I really don't want to simply be revving my engine and have the stupid thing spray.
And I've done plenty of reseach... and have plenty more to do. Thanks.

Rep Power: 380 Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) is an extremely toxic gas that is an irritant to the respiratory tract.
This light reddish-brown gas is just one of several major air pollutants (others include carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide, particulate matter, lead and ozone) usually entering the atmosphere through the process of high-temperature combustion processes.
Major sources of NO2 include; vehicle exhaust fumes, heat/power generation, nitric acid, explosives and fertiliser plants, kerosene heaters, un-vented gas stoves/heaters and environmental tobacco smoke.
Nitrous Oxide (N2O) Commonly known as "laughing gas," Nitrous is colourless and sweet-smelling, and produces giddiness, relaxation, floating sensations, and a mild anesthesia.
Medically, it's used for minor oral surgery and dental work. Others uses are within the dairy industry (used as a mixing agent), auto-racing (to add more Oxygen to the engine, it also acts as a coolant) and is used in diving to prepare divers for nitrous-like effects.
Nitric Oxide (NO)
This is a colourless gas that is formed through the combustion of nitrogen and oxygen (O2). When combined with oxygen or air, it forms Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2). By using an ultra-violet light, this can be separated again into Nitric Oxide and very reactive atoms of Oxygen (O2).
When these Oxygen atoms are combined with hydrocarbons, they will produce noxious compounds that will destroy plants and can cause membranes to be irritated within living organisms. It is a source of energy for some kinds of bacteria. Despite being present in the body acting as a neurotransmitter, it can also have a toxic effect that has been linked to some diseases - notably, Alzheimers and Huntingtons.
It is also known as: Nitrogen Oxide, Nitrogen monoxide, Nitrosyl radical, Amidogen, UN1660.
