I know you're despaerate for money. But please don't forget the predicament you and I still have with DH. If you have the money to buy the skyline I'm assuming you have what is needed to finish off the thing me and you had... Please don't just give up on this cuz i lost a lot of money in this whole thing.
Sorry for HJ'ing the thread guys...
type R vs which year s2000? they get faster every year.. first year they came out they dynoed like ****.. new ones have waayy higher dyno numbers.. type R would prolly beat 01-02.. 03 and on couldnt be a very close race.
Don't drink and post, you will end up hilarious.

Rep Power: 344 Well lets look at power to weight ratios
The lightest 7thgen you can get (2004 Vp coupe) with a K20A2 (200hp) has a 12.25 lb/hp power to weight ratio
A stock 2004 S2000 has an 11.7
BTW lower # = faster

Rep Power: 0 think about the #'s.
Stock RSX-S can run a 14.9 with decent driver.
Stock S2K can run 13.9 with decent driver.
Swapped Civic weighs about 350 lbs less then the type S. If you follow the generalized outcome of -100 lbs = -.1 off the 1/4 mile time you're lookin at a 14.5 at best. thats about 1/2 a second too slow
hope that helps this is entirely based on driver of course

Rep Power: 0 ok I'll give ya .3 for the extra power and ls deven though it's not likely to get that in the real world. that puts ya at 14.2 still slower then a stock s2k
s2k is a very nice car IMO. I wanted one til I sat inside one. didnt like the feel.

refer to this thread.
if you were to make a comparison, a turbo d17 @ 8-10 psi would not hold up to a turbo rsx-s at 8 psi.

Or are you trying to compare a 1.7l to a 2.0l. Yes the bigger motor at the same boost makes more torque.
You need to be clear about your posts. We are not stupid. Yes a K20 boosted will be at 300whp and a D17 boosted at 250whp. But look at the K20 just gaining 100whp 50% increase over stock hp and the D17 making an extra 150whp 100% increase.
Pound for pound the D17 is putting out more power for the displacement.

I'm not talking about a turbo dc5. I was making a comparison between the n/a dc5r's performance vs. the turbo dc5s ... and we all know that the turbo dc5s would beat a turbo d17, both at 8 psi ...
you also have to realize that by 250whp, you are at 11-12 psi, not 8 psi ... so let's say ~11.5 psi ... you also have a pnp head w/ cam

Rep Power: 0 they are not at 200 whp stock. and I doubt any d17 on only 8 lbs is at 250 whp with other upgrades sure. if you're gonna make this kind of comparison you gotta compare them fairly.
also a properly driven DC5 R could beat a turbo d17 on 8 psi. the non type r guys have done as low as 13.6 full interior. not gonna happen with 8lbs on the d17. at least not that ive ever heard of.
what is futurersxswap have? cause he's at the same level as me running around 13.7 last I remember. I'm pretty sure he's got more then a base kit on 8 lbs.
