ok so the night starts off i get off early from work at 430, goto the bank, come home and change my mismatched tires around, 2 michillen's in front and 2 nitto radials in the back...yea i know i know

so me my friend with a 91 black formula and a friend with a 97 cx civic roll up to the track

my best 3 runs of the night *i got 12 in* were
R/T: .617
60': 2.229
330: 6.240
1/8: 9.582

i was really hyped when i got these times, i mean they are b16 in a 2nd gen times...speaking of b16 crx's

theres this kid that goes to my school and they all think they are fast with their mufflers and intakes...whatever, but this kids brother has a b16 crx with i/h/e im geussing sounded like it, maybe a vacf, well he was all driving around like an asshole and was tryin to pick a race with me in the middle of traffic :screwy:

so i turn around and he follows theres still alot of traffic in the way for about 5-10 min and then we hit a part of the strip that is clear ahead, he drops it in 2nd and wait for me to do so, so i drop it in 2nd and we go at it, i kept up with him even in 2nd and then i expected him to pull but i started to pull steadily on him about a car and a half on him and then i shut it down, we catch back up to traffic and slow down

after a few lights traffic is clear again and he drops it into 2nd again...so i do the same thinkin he like missed a gear last time or something and we went again this time i pulled harder than before in the beggining and kept it steady, i was stoked because earlier in summer this kid raced my friend with a gsr del sol and pulled on him quite good? so i was expecting to loose but i pulled on him anyways it was a great night of racing street and track again all i have is an ls with intake and exhaust...

vtec is great but its really not needed to go fast *my car isnt fast but yea you all know what i mean*

on a video called roaring vtec they have a integra type r putting down 260 some hp without vtec they disabled it, im not really sure about specs or anything but i thought that was crazy and it was all motor

not bad times....seems like your a good driver

its all about the launch and so far ive done very well, found the sweet spot to launch at and the tire pressure

next time im gonna experiment with some other things and hopefully as it gets a bit warmer the tires will grip better

Your not fast? I consider that pretty fast man, a high 14 sec car is considered pretty peppy in my opinion. My ideal car would run high 12s, below that, its too fast for me, ive only driven a mid 13 sec car and it felt really fast for me. In the beach my car feels kinda fast 15.3 sec car.
Nice driving, congrats.

i just ran a 12.81 with more potential. this was with a stock turbo, front mount and boost controller. the falken azenis couldn't hold any more and the plug wire failed at the 1000 ft mark. and there is more boost too.

remember the SR20VE i told ya'll bout? he ran 13.8 with I/H/E

my ideal goal is high 11 low 12's in the end still street legal

but for now i wanna get the best out of what i have with driver ability

03-21-2004, 03:48 PM
very possible goals... i know people with 11-12 second cars daily driven on the street in NY. i drive mine 50-60 mile per day to and from work. i just need a little more spark and some slicks...up the boost and 12.3 is attainable and i am happy. then some touch paint here and there...lol

Back when all I had was an intake and muffler I ran a 15.5.
The biggest problem I have now is my 60' time the 14.4 run was with a 2.555 60' time. So 13's are not far away :icon16:
But with the extra mods I have lined up in the next month or 2 it will be seeing mid to low 14's all motor hopefully and low 13's on the bottle :evillol: That is if I don't break anything.

woooow traction issues? lol

yea that is always going to be a problem for me lol. The last race at the track last year it was pretty cold and I was getting wheel spin in 3rd gear, best time i could muster up was a 14.6 lol. But I have a set of Azenis and hopefully they will help with the 60' time. Also I have the stock springs and shocks on my car so the weight transfer to the rear is terrible for traction, but i have a set of springs to install to help that too ;)
When you get a header and new times let me know how you do. :bigthumb:

200SXGTi-R Your a fast mothefuka...
A car like yours is ideal for me, as far as acceleration times...it must feel pretty tight accelerating in a high 12s car, I drove a Porshe RS america 13.6 car and damn that shit was fast.
