RSX Vs. V-Spec?

Well this is just something I wanted to know my buddy has a new V-Spec and he wants to race me for $10 gas money what chance do I have in beating him? My buddy has a minor modded GS-R and he ripped one of those a new asshole. he was wondering if I can do the same thing?

can anyone tell me?

What are you running? Type S? I've seen video of this race. Spec V pulls slightly at the beginning due to it's torque, but gets smoked when the RSX gets going. Bet alot more money and roll from second or third gear to start. Embarrass him.

No I sportin a 04 Base RSX. This thing is massivly kwick compared to my auto G2.

Its fairly quick but its a crapp car:D

Iunno, I think it might come down to a drivers race. Deflate his tires for good measure.

I don't think he can win in an unmodded base RSX. The Spec V, although a cheap piece of shite, has more hp and torque. It'll kill you off the line. Head over to the Nissan forum and see if you can get an unbiased opinion...

He might be able to if he's a good driver and if its a manual and on a roll:D

is the spec V the sentra SE-R

Yes it is. Keep in mind there are two SE-R's, the regular and the Spec-V, the latter being the better.

get on kazza and watch the 02 spec vs 55shot civic vs rsx type s watch who wins

I suppose it would be irrelevant who wins that race, seeing as how he has a base model.

I got my money on the Sen. does things r not a walk-in the park like most people thing there pretty fast....now if u had a RSX-S then it's a different storie still I thing the Sen. will give the Type-S a run for it's money....so fact is the Sen. should win by 2-3 car's...a base RSX and give a Type-S a drivers RACE

*think

Type-S is not a driver's race as long as you have enough time to hit about third gear. Wouldn't be much of a race, otherwise, anyway...

hey man that rsx that beat that ser is gay its a type s rsx and a ser non spec.Now go download the 02 spec vs civic 55 shot and a rsx type s with a intake and see who wins.

Wow in one movie the Spec-v wins big deal watch all the spec-v vs rsx-s i bet the rsx is going to win. If the rsx-s gets moded even if the spec-v has the same mods it just gets worse and worse the rsx-s responds much better to mods. Go to clubrsx if you think the sentras are so great spec-v can barley hit mid 13's with all its mods, but then an rsx-s hits 13's with intake,race header,exhaust,mm,and hondata 4.

Spec V< base rsx
Spec V< type s(in drag)
Type S< Spec V in the freeway.

non type S is non v-tec... right? y not just hit the bottle with a small shot of nitrous.... then u will easily pull him in the higher gears... get some good sticky tires 2 and uve won no doubt unless u are a super lame driver

No, the base still have VTEC (i-Vtec in fact) but not a performance one like in the Type S.

Sen's...r pretty fast "quick on launch for a 4-door car"but... I'm sure a Type-S can take down a stock Sen...or with some small goodies....(seeing I took one down on my '94 Lude by a good 5 car's tho I'm not sure what kind of model was it...as it was a stop light race)

No, the base still have VTEC (i-Vtec in fact) but not a performance one like in the Type S.

Precisely, but to be more specific. The base only has VTEC on the intake cam, while the Type-S has both.

well i dunno about running NOS in a vtec engine... is there any major problems running it on a completely stock v-tec engine (dont forget nitrous lowers intake charge temp)

I'm not sure about problems but many people are running NOS on the RSX and RSX-S.

well that is the cheapest way to win races..... but sum people consider it cheating...

You could spend the cash on a cold air intake and Hondata ECU reflash and have a fast car that's better everytime, not just when the NOS bottle is full :)

"iagree"

i know that and being in2 real racing NOS would be one of the last mods i would do, but this guy just wants to win a race and there is no other way to get that much HP increase (may it be for a short time) for that kind of money...

Screw NOS. I wouldn't use it. That stuff wrecks the engine. You should do a Type S head swap and have a 5 speed type S. With the 6 speed there is a big chance of miss-shifting. Granted it will cost quit a few bucks but it would be worth it.

What the?

If you do it correctly NOS won't wreck your engine.

And swap in a Type S head and get a 5 speed?! (and lose the 6Spd which is better than 5) The 6 Speed is geared for the higher power, and its mainly the newb's who are misshifting. The 5 Speed will run like crap on with that.


If a turbo makes your car a lot faster, do you remove the wheels so your wheels don't slip? If you get new headers to you have them welded to the car so that they don't fly off? Or should we remove our doors because in the event of a side-impact crash the doors might hit you?

Any gains from the Type S block will be negated by n00bifying and ruining it with the 5Speed.

Damn thing won't let me edit.......

Ok, so as I said about the negated gains, plus you'll spend all that cash and it'll go right out the window. And for what - a 10 dollar bet?

lol 10 post noob tellin us nos wrecks the engine

I was just going off what I herd. I'm more of a domestic car guy and like my old muscle cars.

Even on a domestic Nitrous won't wreck it unless you put too strong of a shot or don't run a proper set-up.

exactly... gone in sixty seconds... NOS'd mustang???? or that stallone movie with the N20'd merc?

ok theyre just movies but i was just trying 2 find examples
