Mustang = Suck?

In one of the other forums people claim a manual 94+ Ls Integra can beat a 99+ V6 manual mustang. Am i the only person who thinks this sounds un reasonable?

I compared the two on MSN autos and I think the Mustang will win. The Integra LS has a 140 hp I4 while the Mustang has a 193 hp V6. I don't think there is much of a chance for the Integra LS. I'll try to get a 0-60 time for my car. I found on the internet that it does 0-60 in 7.6 seconds. Thats probably in a manual though, and mines an automatic.:(

i heard 7.6 is the automatic , and manual is 7.0

I replyed to it, but now it's getting out of hand, so I'm staying out of it.

yea , im off to the 3.8 forum .

Don't worry. That same idiot bashed my Probe GT saying he could whoop it also. Of course a fight broke out but we all know it's just another stupid ricer that doesn't know shit about cars and likes to run his mouth.

I hate ricers. jap crap sounds like shit with mufflers. i seen a integra 6 banger with American thunder exhaust soundin like a whiny little girl. think about throwin that same exhaust on the LT1..you will most likely feel the ground shaking, let the product live up to its name you ricer roders....:rolleyes:

He probably never ran against some one who can drive. Either that or he has 10k invested in the engine. Personally he can keep it I'll keep my stang.

An integra with a 6 banger??? Did I miss something???:confused:

I'm sure they do have 6s... though they might be swaps.

Now an RSX? Shiet, RSX by three at 100.

Integra's don't have 6 cylinders, only various applications of 4 bangers...

you got it all I4s in tegs and RSX (new teg) i've heard rumors of ppl wedging crazy stuff in them though so there might be one out there but not factory.

LOL....my bad...yea this guy was tellin me he had a bad ass rebuil 6 bangin V-tech in his with a nitrous kit soon to be installed with new heads and his exhaust was shity sounding. AT just doesnt sound good on a 6 bore...so far anyway....:lol:

well there is the NSX motor v-6 with vtec but i'll bet my left arm (i'm a lefty) he didn't drop one of them in being an MR car and all. it also would make a purr not sound like crap the NSX motors sound really good.

The thing is that a teggy is lighter weight than a mustang. It might be a pretty good race, but I would still have to go with the stang in the end.

that's the one thing i can truly say that i dislike about forums....people always ask what car can beat what and that they can beat u or whatever.....i wanna see results and not speculation:icon16:

I've never seen anyone swap a 6 cylinder into an Integra.
This kid is full of shit up to his ears!!
if not...he needs to prove it(pix)

and the weight point someone brought up earlier is basically what it comes down to! and driver

I think that a stock LS would loose to the mustang...
But i'm 99.9% positive the GS-R would NOT loose to the v6 mustang!!
Seeing how i put down an auto '98 mustang GT on the drag strip!!:bigthumb:

The driver definately has a lot to do with it, along with the weight. The 6 cyl. stang doesn't have the power to carry the weight as good as opposed to a stang with higher hp, the GT or Cobra. The same goes for the Integra, the LS doesn't have the power to carry the weight as good as opposed to the GS-R. In the end, it comes down to the better shifter and the fact that the Mustang does indeed have more power than the LS Integra.

yea , 53HP more inwhich is going to the rearwheels rather than the front :smile:

Choking a car with nice purr is the best throtle response in the world...:devil:

agree

to say who'll win. torque is another factor, what kind of tires, how old the engine is, what kind of octane of gas, how heavey the cars are, how experience the drivers are ect...

I hate mustangs. I'm going to a bicycle... All 12 speeds and all! :tongue:

?

to say who'll win. torque is another factor, what kind of tires, how old the engine is, what kind of octane of gas, how heavey the cars are, how experience the drivers are ect...

I would have to say the Mustang has more torque (don't know for a fact), they aren't racing on slicks, most likely street tires, ones a '94 and the other is a '99 engine, they both prolly running regular unleaded with a 6 and 4 cyl., and the cars prolly aren't too far apart in weight, since the new mustang bodies are so much lighter than they used to be, but the mustang is still heavier. Say you give them the same experience in driving, then it comes down to the mustang with more HP, or the Integra being lighter weight. If you don't give them the same experience, then it's a toss up of who'll win.

but then it comes down to what mustang you have whehter it be the 94-98 V6 150hp that were pretty heavy. Or the 99+ 190hp on a 3,000 pound body.

The first post said it was a '99 Mustang V-6, so I'd still have to go with the Mustang.

You can but a v6 in a Teg because my friend has one in a 93 HB civic

if you ford boys would get you head out of your ass and try to learn a little about your OPP. you would know that Honda has been making v6 or I6 engine for a long time my friends V6 came out of a Acura Legend


and for those who say it cant be done go go blow your self I see one everyday

oh and you can drop a v8 in a miata too try that very very very fun and scare ride

I'd love to see that a legand motor in a teg. and the 8 for the miata is well know what do you mean by OPP? post pics of the swapped hatch i'd like to see it. also you know honda makes an eight?

No I did not know they made 8s learn some think new every day.

Opp or Rivals

go look up Monster Miata and see what you find
its a miata with a 305 Mustang GT in it


and I will take some pic of my friend car and post it when I can

The Mustang was never made with a 305. Did you mean 302?

lol yes that is it 302

sorry I know shit about ford my bad yes it is a 302 ford mustang GT engine in a Miata

Who are you talking to? Nobody said anything about swaping a V-6 into a teg. The question was about a 94 manual teg racing a 99 v-6 Mustang. If you take your head out of your ass you would know that.

if you read all this shit you will see that they are talkin abiut dropin a v6 in a teg


DUMB ASS FORD BOY :thefinger

My bad, then that makes us both a Dumbass....I don't have a Ford dumbass, so I'm not a ford boy, and anyways I'm more into chevy.

Thanks for winning the hypocrite of week award. By the way, I believe you're referring to the only person in this thread that seemed to indicate the Integra would be highly unlikely to have a V6 wedged into it.

You may want to take a look at the screen name on that one... He's an Integra owner. So now that I've established you cannot read, and you're a hypocrite, I'll go about ignoring the rest of your posts. :thefinger:

FYI... The newer Mustang's are not all that light. The SN95 series weighs in about 25-50lbs more than the 99+. The Fox bodies from 87-93 are 100-200lbs lighter than the new Mustang's, and the 79-86 cars were another 50lbs lighter than the 87-93. That brings us to the Mustang II's which were a good 200lbs lighter than the 79-86, and you have to go clear back to 73 before you run into a platform that's heavier than the next platform.

I'll stick the the platforms in the past 15yrs, based on lightest Mustang V8 from 1985-2003

1985 3000lbs
1986-1988 3050lbs note: coupe 5.0 was about 3000lbs
1989-1993 3075lbs note: coupe 5.0 was about 3025lbs
1994-1995 3250lbs
1996-1998 3275lbs
1999-2003 3225lbs

Knock off about 200lbs for the 3.8L or 2.3L.

Lighter
1974-1978
1964-1966
1979-1986
1967-1970
1987-1993
1994-1998
1999-2003
1971-1973
Heavier

The Integra weighs in at about 2500lbs. As light as the lightest Mustangs ever made. The fastest time I have EVER heard out of a stock Integra LS was a 15.2. The fastest I've EVER heard out of a stock 99+ V6 is 14.9. Add a V6 to the Integra, assuming it's a decent one and I would hope the Integra would win. If it's stock, the Mustang has the advantage.

When in hell did Honda make an I6?

Bullitt = heaviest of all. MM&FF said 3900 lbs.

:iceslolan

This is a large amount of posts for a pillowfight of a race

I will beat you all.

:bigthumb:

why what do you have?

Rare 1998 Mustang GTX, 4.6 DOHC, T56, 3.73 gears, stage II heads, crower cams, 150 shot.

:bigthumb:

gtx , how much HP do thoes run.

dynoed at 377 rwhp, 510 with the 150 shot.

nice , nice. How much did that cost? Ive never seen a gtx before.

Dude, I'm kidding.

:wink:

Just a stocker Bullitt.

Or should I say... stalker?

:bigthumb:

damn...i know why u ford guys hate us honda drivers...

its cuz we gotta lotta ppl w/ too much attitude...apologies from us...we're not all bad...jus...some...:bigthumb:

o, btw, it's a drivers race (the stang should be able to take it however), an the gsr vs the 99-up, the gsr SHOULD win, but once again...all driver...

damn...i know why u ford guys hate us honda drivers...

I don't hate Honda drivers, I hate people who talk out there butt, and know nothing. That could be from any camp, CHEVY, FORD, MOPAR, HONDA, TOYOTA, NISSAN, MAZDA, BMW, etc.

There is one guy I talk to a few weeks ago, who was clueless. All he knows is his Interga can beat my STANG, and my GTR. So, I start talk detailed engine, suspension, gears, power adders and the guy has not one clue as to what I am saying. He knows his mothly payment is $300 a month.:loser:

This guy asked me if I was a FORD guy, or a NISSAN guy. My reply, I am a CAR guy. Look at my cars listed under my name.

If you guys are into cars, learn about them all. Don't be narrow minded. All cars can made to go fast, handle well, and look good. :lol:

How much did you pay for your GTR , Miles on it?

It's people like you that make the sport more enjoyable. I have more respect for someone like who, even if your driving a Honda, then some of the schmucks that drive domestic cars. Now it's not just Honda drivers that people hate. It's more of the uneducated guy who falls for the "ricer" approach, that can be applied with any car.

I going to quote Skyline, cause I like what he said.
"This guy asked me if I was a FORD guy, or a NISSAN guy. My reply, I am a CAR guy. Look at my cars listed under my name.

Si Senor.

I paid $12k, It was owned by a British Airways pilot from '95 till I bought it last year. Had $12k worth of reciepts of work that had been done to it since he had it. It had a brand new NISMO clutch, R34 bb turbos, Blitz Boost controller, and 3 1/2" NISMO exhaust. And a extra set of 3 piece Panasport rims that go for $700. The car had only 32k miles on it. Interior is perfect. Body had 2 small dings, and some rust. I am tackleing the rust right now.

I plan on painting the car by the end of the summer. I do all my own work, it save a lot of money, plus if I screw up I can only blam myself.

I am planning on a turbo up-grade next year, the car should put out 500hp. 1/4 mile is not its strong point, but it will do it pretty well. It is a driving machine, right now I am debating on buying one to race. So I will bring 2 GTRs back to the states, but then I would have to sell my Stang. I am kind of torn right now.

2 GTR's!!! Stangs can wait, bring home 2 GTR's!!!

BlkCamaroSS,

If it was only that easy. I have built the Stang, I get to attached to my cars. That is my biggest downfall:frown:

If I can get a good price for the Stang, I will let it go. Tey have a couple of R32 GTRs here, that are full roll caged, engins modded, suspension set up that I can buy for 16k. I have a couple weeks worth of work on the Stang to get it ready to sale, but it should be able to pull that amount of money here. We will see:smile:

im interested in seeing pics of your skyline , in and out . Also so engine specifications.

thanks.

Right now I am in Germany, so I see if I can find you some links.

nice nice , So i take it you didnt have to import did you? How much would one cost me in the ol United States.

I have seen them for sale for 28k, but that was a bone stock one. Normal price would be about 33k.

After it said and done, mine will cost me about 25k when I bring it back, going though MotoRex of course.
