That's IF, and ONLY IF the si driver can't drive a stick to save his life! Our Ex's pull a lil' on them in 1st and if they get a bad launch then a little in 2nd too, but they always torque our asses bad! I've heard some peeps on here talk about beating si's (7th gen i mean, i've taken 6th gen si's from a dig) only when they got a better launch and power shifted through all the gears, meaning never let off the gas even when switching gears while bounchin off the rev limiter each time. As for our civics taking RSX's, i've done this. But i've only taken a STOCK base RSX auto. Took him by a car too.

I love that SIR, there weren't many in the markert when I was buying my car. There was one but it was red with high mileage. That is one sick car even in its stock form.

Heh...nice ride, but i wouldn't go as far as saying that K-series engines are overrated.
2.0 > 1.6
K20A2 swapped into an EK hatch...now that's a fast ride

"In with the new, out with the old" =P

yah but who puts em in ek's.... ek's are all about the b series .. cause we dont need custom motor mounts and all that jaz... and it soo much easier to find a b series block than a k series for cheap if u boost and blow... thats just my view on it but yah a k series in a ek would wreck...

p.s. 6thgen has a big wieght advantage over 7th sry guys lol

^i agree, but k series has much more potential than b series and produce more power overall. but id personally would do a B swap over a K in reality because its so rare to get hands on a K nowadays. after couple more years, than the K would be around more.

You need the o2 simulator. I have one in my car. You plug it into a few wires of the ECU behind the glove box. Very easy.

When i had my RSX auto and was stock I lost to my friends manual 7thgen by about half a car...same night from a roll and sportshifting i beat him by a few cars on top end. When i modded with i/h/e & hondata he was 2-3 cars behind me consistently, now that i traded in for an S and modded with again i/h/e & hondatahe won't even run me he says

There are many timeslips on ClubRSX w/ autos running 16.1-16.2 sportshift...stock 5-speed runs 15.7, same for Civic Si.

I think the Civic driver would have to be very very very good at shifting to even take an RSX auto in sportshift...now in auto mode, different story, i could see a Civic maual winning. D17's dont really get anything from bolt ons so they don't really figure in.

Yes, it's been proven...some run .1-.2 faster stock some .1-.2 slower but 15.7 is the average.Stock Si's run the same thing, same engine, less tq, better final drive ratio <Type-R ratio>.

Search on ClubRSX there are plenty of timeslips..modded 5-speeds are low 15's usually.
