You know what's a driver's race? RSX Type-S vs. Celica GTS. Base RSX vs. Civic Si, maybe vs Celica GT. Civic DX/LX/EX is no driver's race with 02 Si or base RSX. In fact, a guy on club RSX did race a bran new Civic EX owned by his friend and pulled 3-4 carlengths on him in a stop sign to stop sign race. I test drove Civic LX and base RSX (same engine as 02 SI) on the same day and the two cars are no where near in performance. Come on, let's get real here.
Oh, and 15.8@91mph is impossible. 15.8 may be possible for your car if lightened, but certainly NOT at 91mph. You'd need at least 140HP AT THE WHEELS to hit that trap speed. So either there was an error at the track (it happens) or the guy was spraying. An RSX Type-S hit 15.2@100mph and that certainly was an error as the guy knew he was under 95mph. Another guy with modded sentra hit 12s when his car was a mid 15s car at best. Oh and if you look closely at that video, the period is after three digits showing 918.xx mph which certainly is an error and the trap speed is usually shown with only 2 digits after the period and not 3 so that video you posted earlier looks like a perfect example of a track error.
Anyways, where are your dyno charts? Where are your timeslips? Yeah, I didn't think so. I like your cars, I like this website, but many of you really need to wake up.[hr]

As far as Si beating me or me beating an Si, we'll see when I go to a race track in the spring.
My request still stands, show me some timeslips and dynos. I did a search and so far only found one dyno run albeit an impressive one at 118HP with an exhaust.
Why did I come here? Cause they locked the damn thread over on ephatch and you have an RSX section and I have nothing better to do

When two cars can run high 15's, it's a driver's race. We're all getting along fine, and we have both learned something about each other's cars. Yes, an Si is slightly faster than an EX, but it's still a driver's race, since it takes a very little mistake to make up the difference.
By the way, many times when trap speeds are in error, the ET is still right.

Rep Power: 326 Did any one even read the long post I made earlier? I don't know why everyone is arguing so much about this originally small post. Deal with the fact that some really good drivers in lightly modded EX's, some even stock, CAN put up a good run against a Si. Granted the edge is toward the Si anything is possible. My 95 non turbo eclipse was decently modded and I was running same times as a stock GS-T. Anything is possible. Enjoy the race, have no hard feelings.

Rep Power: 0 I just find it funny that their (at the time) "fastest member" needed an 80 shot + I/H/E and dyno tuning to run .3 seconds faster then my 00 Si with an intake and a dry 50 shot, which i installed all my self. Nuf said.

I didn't mean to start this whole argument but Im glad its all over.
Im hella tired from reading all the post after mine (which is like page 7or8).
I was just gonna ask anybody with 2k2 and up SI to race me to settle all this ****. but I see their is no need.
Im sure everyone else who's gonna read this thread is gonna have a blast reading all 50million pages. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
I love all cars. Most of us have Hondas so we should all be on the same team, i think we had way too much testosterone in this thread.
Im about to take my car to the tracks once I get HP off-road header w/ cat and JET ECU. After thats over Ill post up pic of time slip on my Members Ride page.
Peace.
