Got my friend to race is mustang 5.0. Now i knew those cars are POS, but damn, his was slow as hell (auto). Started from 0 and I killed him off the line, after a wonderful 1st-2nd shift, I checked out my side window and i didn't see him. Then I shifted to 3rd and he was in my rear view mirror (1 car length back). Then a damn volvo pulled out in front of me and I had to brake. That made my week :grinyes:

sorry man but i doubt it your teg killed a 5.0 not saying it can't be done is he a crappy driver or something? What kind of tegie?

With those mods, i dont see it happening. Unless High-Beams and clear corners cut a second from your ets.
:sly:

you calling me a liar? WTF would i lie about sometrhing like that. Next time i'll video tape it for you. :screwy:

Not saying you're lying...but it is kind of hard to believe with the mods you have. What year was the Mustang. The only 5.0's I remember was the 94-96 body style which come with 240hp and 280ft lbs of torque.

I really don't see a 120hp make up with the mods that you currently have. I won't even mention the torque

The 5.0 Mustangs ran from '79 - '93. In '94 they got a new body style but only kept the 5.0 for the '95 year.

It was a 1990 LX.

edit: also, with my mods, fair to say i have at least 150-155hp. The difference between the cars is about 90hp. But i weigh a shitload less than him, i'm a manual, and i know how to launch.

What year & model is your Integra?

Unless your pushing a Type-R or GSR I really can't see you running on a 5.0 unless he just couldn't drive or something. I agree, you will have a better launch cause of the weight difference. But he should have eventually walked you down. That's where that 70hp Difference comes in. Like I said before, I won't mention the torque. :grinno:

According to your previous post you said you're pushing around 155hp while a 1990 5.0 has around 225hp So, there's a 70hp gap. I'd say you're running around 125-130ft lbs of torque while the Stang has around 200ft lbs of torque (not sure) Now, remind you, I'm taking into consideration the condition of the car (fair) and condition of the engine (fair). So I would say it is possible but not likely if the stang is in good condition.

The problem was you said you beat a 5.0 mustang with a LIGHTLY modded integra. In the future, you must be a little more specific when posting these types of threads....or get ready to be flamed

Anyway...Good Run :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

I'm sure a 5.0 has more than 200LBS of tq, demestics always (maybe with one or two exceptions) have more tq than HP, specialy the V8's, I hate to burst your bubble but I walked a auto 5.0 a couple months ago, the 5.0 looked in fair condition the engine, no idea, the guy started to loose and he turned away. :loser: Guess he has issues about being walked on by a 1990 Nissan Maxima :sunglasse I honestly think he tried cause I heard his engine the entire time till he turned away, he was on my ass but he never passed me. :dunno:

sameintheend01-

With all do respect, 5.0 mustangs are in no way a "pos" and are in no way "slow as hell." What have you been smoking my friend? A 5.0 mustang (auto or stick) has 225hp and 300lbs of torque. Either your friend's stang was running like crap or he let you win. Race me then tell me an auto 5.0 stang is slow.

Race me then tell me an auto 5.0 stang is slow.


why don't you just post up some times and we can avoid all the e-thuggin and tell you if your slow or ont :licka:

Well I haven't gotton to the track since I got my new trans, but last summer my best run was a 14.26@97 with just gears, shift kit, and exhaust. Not bad for a stock motor heavy convertible.

yea that's quick, i'm hopin for low 13's high 12's with the turbo gsr 5th gen hatch i'm goin to be building here in oct. :evillol:

Well, I think a 1990 Maxima is more believable (190hp, 190ft lbs torq) when beating a 1990 Mustang than a 4cyl Integra

Yeah I'm going to Lebanon Valley in NY on 9/10. I'm getting a good set of drag radials so I'm hoping for high 13's. I'm gonna start building the motor over winter, hoping for low to mid 12's N/A next summer.

sorry man but i doubt it your teg killed a 5.0 not saying it can't be done is he a crappy driver or something? What kind of tegie?


if he has a GSR its more than possible. i have walked on several 5.0s. foxbodys, and 94-95s alike. i have only lost to 2, and raced about 6 total. one kicked my ass something fierce, but i figured it would, cause it sounded insane. the other edged me out by like half a car. if he has like a 1990 integra GS auto, id agree with you wholeheartedly :grinyes:

what really sucks is, one of the 90-93 LXs i beat, the guy tried to follow me and kick my ass

What year & model is your Integra?

Unless your pushing a Type-R or GSR I really can't see you running on a 5.0 unless he just couldn't drive or something. I agree, you will have a better launch cause of the weight difference.

what are u talking about? a RWD w/ 300 lbs of torque should DESTROY a torqueless honda off the line. where is all of the torque for the stang? in the low end...where does the b18 motor make its' power? above 5k atleast.

im sorry guys, but u weren't there, and there are so many different variables to any race on the streets (a bad launch, a bad shift, motor not running 100%, bad tank of gas, bad tires etc...) so guys...quit flaming him, why go online and lie about something like that?

nice job same, don't worry bout them.

:iamwithst

:biggrin:

:iamwithst

:biggrin:

i hate u... :lol:

haha better launch with fwd

With the weight difference and him having a FWD car, he can get out of the hole before a Stang, BUT....It will get walked down. That's what I was saying.

When he started the thread he left it wide open with no type of info of his car or the stang. I'm not flaming him or anything, I'm just saying I find it hard to believe an Integra beat a 5.0. that's it. Like I said in my previous post, If he was driving a Type-R or GSR, I can see it being more possible. Or, if the stang was having problems (driver, tires, motor etc.)

Now according to your previous post....It looks like you're contradicting yourself. First you say a RWD w/ 300 lbs of torque should DESTROY a torqueless honda but then you congratulate him on his victory.....What's up??

You assumed that he has a B18 Motor and that's a good assumption considering he said he be a 1990 5.0 Mustang LX. But his list of mods doesn't state an engine swap, that's why I find it hard to believe he beat a Mustang. Take note...I said hard to believe, not impossible. But like I said before good run

magazine racer..

you know that thing also says my car runs high 15s, but ive SEEN my car run 14.9 with IHE and a shortshifter. how do you say that 14.9 is unattainable for a teg? ive seen them keeping up with NEWER Gts (were talking 260hp) with relatively little mods (IHE, shortshifter, clutch, flywheel, and type R tranny with LSD on a 95 GSR)

I never said it was unattainable...I did say I can't see it being possible with the mods that he has without an engine swap. Remember now, I'm thinking he has an base integra (LS or RS) with those mods because he never specified that he had a GSR or Type-R or he swapped in a stronger motor.

To give us a a better understanding, I think he (sameintheend01) needs to specify what type of car he has and his performance mods. Then we can take it from there :iceslolan

you are absolutely correct about that

With the weight difference and him having a FWD car, he can get out of the hole before a Stang, BUT....It will get walked down. That's what I was saying.

and...thats exactly wut i was correcting. think about it, its REAR wheel drive. when u launch, where does the weight go? simple physics say backwards, therefore giving a RWD an advantage over any fwd car in the launch.

the extra torque and the fact that it is rwd together mean that the 5.0 SHOULD get a better launch than the fwd teg. im not contradicting myself, i was simply correcting the misinformation.

hmmm... i have beaten 2 of the older style stangs ( late 80's early 90's)
one of them could've been a four cylander I'm really not sure. but the other is a guy that i frequently see around town definitely has a 5.0 hatchback and i love runnin him cuz he has this huge decal on his back window that says something like 'Import Eater' or 'Import Killer'. well anyway whatever it says his car has never eaten or killed my gs-r.

My car is a 2000 integra LS. I launched perfect. My mods are the ones in the signature minus the high flow cat. That bullshit that was posted on car-stats was for a manual. I said i raced an auto. And carstats is unreliable unless it says who the info is provided by (eg car and driver). If you look through it, some of the numbers seem made up. I beat my friends '97 prelude all the time with my car (and he can launch very well) and his 1/4 mile is supposedly 1/2 a second faster :lol2:

Forgot to mention, but his car is convertible if it makes any difference.

And i'm not lying, so stop trying to flame me...i'm just telling it like it happened. :thefinger

Dude, Stop getting so friggin pissed. No one is flaming you. The reason why it's so hard to believe is because of THE LACK of information you provided!!

i have a boosted 98 civic ex and stngs give me hell i think you r full of shit
