2001 civic LX 5 spd VS. Chevy s-10 extreme!
 

I have intake, and exhaust.. the extreme is stock and an automatic, he goes to my school and wants to race me for $30, you all think i can take him? IM racing him today after school!

What a stupid thread...

Which engine does he have??? if it's a 4.3 you'll lose. If your gonna race..do it at a track!

I think all extremes have the 4.3, and yeah if thats the case pack your bags, and get out your wallet, lol

Extreme's come with 2.5's as well..it's just a body kit and ZQ8 suspension package

last time i checked.. the S-10 X-treme pumped 210 throught a stock vortech supercharger....yea so what if it's automatic... he'll probably kill you whenever he wants....either off the line or he'll chase you down.. and remeber that pickup is pretty light:susp:

S-10's pump out 165 ..they don't use a supercharger they use GM Vortec heads:shake::shake: the Vortech bolt on S/C brings it up to 210HP...

I know my S10s [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

So my friend must have bought it through dealership cause he rolled off the lot with it under his hood..:) friggin liar said it came stock...

Didn;t come stock..but all GM dealers in canada are also vortech, and Rancho dealers [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] Dealer option not factory

My bad new one's have 180HP....30HP gain from a $4k supercharger...your friends dumb [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I know the first few years of extreme's had a fuel cut-off point at like 98 mph or something around that area, sucks on the highway when you have so much room to play with.

Joe

still have it..now it's 105MPH

The S-Series come with either a 2.2 or a 4.3...If this kid has the 4.3 Xtreme like I had, you should just fill your tank up with gas and then buy some new air-fresheners...Because YOU'LL LOSE, automatic or not...

I could edge out an S-10 extreme in my 6th gen Civic Si, but I don't think you'll be able to take him.

the S10 extreme is slowr than a regular S-10 with a 4.3 the Exterem weighs about 100lbs more [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

the s-10 extremes come with either a 120 hp 2.2l or a 180 hp 4.3l non-supercharged
a vortech supercharger would bump the 4.3l up to 242 hp at the tires with no other mods.
the only way you're gonna out run him is if he has a 2.2l or if he cant drive worth a shit

my friend has a gmc sonoma 2.2 which is basically the same car... whenever i raced him, i would take him by 4 or 5 car lengths easy.... i've never raced a 4.3 s-10 though... could be fun....

My thoughts exactly...Save that $30.00 for your air-fresheners and a tank full of gas:)

Tell him you will race to 110 mph first one there wins!!:):)

yeah, cause he'll shut off at 94 mph

Race is on today at 3:00, by the way his truck is a 5spd.

if its not the 2.2l, then dont race him and save the money.
i can promise if he has the 4.3l with a 5 speed, he'll bust your [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

the s-10 extreme i think has the same engine as a blazer extreme. my friend has a 99 mercury cougar 5spd. 2.5 v6, with a full exhaust.
he raced an automatic blazer extreme and got smoked by like 2 cars. the blazer was spinning tires through the whole first gear, even though its automatic. i have a 02 ex. i raced the cougar. in quarter mile he takes me by about a car. so u will get ur [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG] smoked by the the s-10. save ur money. buy some gas.

I just got home from work, and we raced today after school, and ive got 3 brand new shiny 10 dollar bills in my pocket. We met at this gas station on a 4 lane road after school today, we pulled out side by side, at about a 15 mph roll he gave the 1.2.3 and we both stomped it, he started to pull about a nose then we hit second and i started coming back by the end of second i had him by a half of car, and then at about 90 is was about 1 car lenght ahead of him, we were only racing to 90 cause of his fuel cut off switch now i think i will buy something more than just gas and air freshners!!!

:tup:

What kind of Extreme did he have? The 2.2L or 4.3L?

sweet kill racer.

If you *CAN* drive, you *SHOULD* be able to beat it.. like by a hair..

You just better pray it's not modded...

all the extreme s-10 is, is a regular s-10 with drop springs, rear sway bar, and a body kit.
the engines are the exact same as any other s-10 on the road. he probably had a 4 cyl.

He has a bone stock 4.3 v6

The 4.3L S-10 extreme can do low 15's stock.... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

You are sooooo full of shit if you want me to believe that you won this "race" with him...(4.3 Vortec would smack you hard)

You were in your Civic, right?? Were you sleeping yesterday around 3:00pm??
