I hate to say it, Idelaysionl, but carrrnut might be right. He kills with that "Quote" button.
Dude, I don't know. Because you can be an idiot and still pull low 15 time slips in an Integra Type R, but with a N/A, all wheel drive car, it's kind of hard to pull low 15 slips.
I dont know though. Bottom line, you're going to have to scan some time slips to prove to everyone here that you can actually take an Integra Type R.... Because Type R doesn't cost 25,000$ for nothing.

The track was pretty dirty from the "real race cars" tread marks up and down the lanes, but as of now I have a 2.25" crush bent midpipe with apexi glasspack, an underdrive pulley and a ganzflow intake. I ran a best time of 15.5 @ 86mph and a 60' of 2.05. I still dont know how to launch it that great...I think I might have gotten some bad gas, cuz my car felt REALLY slow that day at the track.

I ran a 15.61 (best of the day) with a 2.09 60 ft time. I have a Ganzflow intake and a Stromung muffler. I launched at about 4000 rpm and let the clutch out "quick".

I don't know how much better my times would get, but I'm sure I could pull a better launch

I firmly believe an RS with an intake and exhaust can run low 15s with a good driver. IIRC, the best time for a stock RS was a 15.1.

I guess the facts speak for themselves.

i believe ldelaysionl. come to australia, u'll get to see the whole subaru line up...they may not pull into the 15s constantly but its no wonder thieves love to steal any subaru vehicle they can get their dirty hands on.

ldelaysionl, if you look at this posted time, you will notice that this vehicle had a slower 60' time, slower 330, yet had a higher speed at the 1/8 mile mark. Anyone who has driven a 2.5 RS Impreza can testify to its lack of top end power and since you are burdened by that extra 80lbs, you would have a slightly worse problem. With that in mind, your car would run a SLOWER time than the Civic with the above time slip. Projected 1/4 mile times are just that...unless you have a time slip with a full 1/4 mile, don't make claims. That is the end of the discussion. Projected and corrected 1/4 mile times hold no merit.

Oh and NSX, the text that you put down can be interpretted in a few ways. How I interpret it is that they are easily available and cheap....also, you forget that in Japan, there is no number designation for the Integra Si motor(US spec GSR) or the Integra Type R...both are B18C.

o fine whatever i just thought i'd post the opinion of honda

incidently there's a really nice black one parked outside which belongs to a next door neighbour and i don't think the engine is the master piece its the car in its entirety its nimble and quick and handles well so up yours

I suggest that you actually go to the link in the above post and read EVERYTHING, not just the ones he decided to quote.

For example, here is the whole quote(he quoted part of this)from JC:

I firmly believe an RS with an intake and exhaust can run low 15s with a good driver. IIRC, the best time for a stock RS was a 15.1. Anyway, I would think he could get mid 15s. Not easily, not without a lot of abuse to the car, and maybe not consistantly, but ya.

JC

here's the reply from HndaTch627:

Quote:

15.1 stock???? i like to think of myself as a fairly decent driver and there is NO WAY IN HELL i could shave 9 tenths of a second off a 1320 time just by driving ability. 2 or 3 tenths sure...but not 9!!

Here's JC in return:

Quote:

Bah, a 15.22, sorry.

JC

I was already ignoring this thread...somebody put it up top again so...

NSX-R-SSJ20K · 03-30-2002, 01:30 AM

yea me sorry its what inferno said it bothered me totally unrelated to what you lot are talking about

cmugen · 02-15-2004, 04:46 PM

I drive a 2000 ITR and I've beat a WRX. They post fast 1/4 mile times because of their AWD but if you look at their times they do it at around 92-94mph. So while the WRX gets off the line better I take it down the line. As for the STI's, well what can you do, they're just damn fast.

I can't believe you guys are arguing over 15 second cars, they are all slow !!! I beat a stock turbo WRX with my sentra with only I/h/e. the ITR are faster than the WRX and they should be running 14.7 the least.

The WRX is a low 14 second car stock. Neither a stock ITR or a Sentra with IHE is that fast.

200SXGTi-R · 02-15-2004, 08:08 PM

the ITR is a mid 14s car and a 2.0 se-r with I/H/E is low 15 to high 14s car ...i have time slips to prove it

200SXGTi-R · 02-15-2004, 08:11 PM

come see me runs 12s with this...!

"mid 14s" and "low 15 to high 14s" are both slower than a WRX.

What's your point? That has nothing to do with anything!

And no, I don't think it's possible to "come see you run 12's" with that car... considering that isn't your car...

carrrnuttt · 02-15-2004, 10:11 PM

|delaysion|: I think we've had this argument before, in one of the SRT-4 vs WRX threads.

Just because a car is capable of low 14's, doesn't mean it will do it everytime. If you said what you said in general, then fine...but if it was to say that either the ITR, a bolt-on SE-R, or any other low-15/high-14-second car can't beat a WRX period...that's just not true.

Let's not even mention WRX auto wagons, which are low-15-second cars most of the time...they're WRXs too, you know.

Anyhow, I have to lock this thread anyways, as threads more than three without a reply is not allowed in here.
