Rep Power: 0 I have a stick 04 Civic EX and raced a 2003 auto Cavi.
I had him down low, but he pulled back up top. However, I realized I was shifting to low and probably had to much weight in the car. I was stock, and so was he.

Rep Power: 305 it's either a 115hp motor or 140hp motor for 2002's. you have a slight weight advantage, but no one is going to really be able to tell you for sure. i've driven an 02 cavalier and it is anything but fast. and neither is an auto civic

I think the XB's max out at like 80 or 90mph. I raced one with my 04 auto ex stock and he was able to keep up with me until about 80 then i just pulled away. We started from a 60mph roll though.
Just put your car into d2 and race your bro and tell us the results. 127hp on the ex vs 130 its very close.
I think you would win though, japanese auto trannies tend to shift better then the domestics. THen again you hit 110mph just in third gear lol. Damn the gears for the autos are so tall.

Rep Power: 296 you can hit 60mph in d2 alone. The car tends to wanna shift up gears as much as possible to keep good fuel economy. Then again it probably won't that big of difference.
