GTP vs. 03/04 Si w/ mods

I'm leaving the movies with 3 of my friends. As we're walkin to my car, some kid starts revving the shit out of his Si. I just kinda ignore and walk to my car. I got in and he is pullin away so i decide to follow him. We get to the light to leave the mall and he pulls out on the highway and punches it. I followed him without much trouble and pass him doin 100 or so and then have to slam on brakes for a light. He pulls up next to me at the light, the road in front is completely clear, the perfect set up. I look over at him and he's laughing... yes, laughing at me. Needless to say i was a lil pissed, and kind of amused by it. the light turns green and we take off, i beat off the line and and pulled a good 5 or 6 cars on him before he gave up. I wish i coulda seen the look on his face... a very satisfying kill indeed...

i only had to see the thread title to know what was gonna happen. good kill.

very nice

Good kill. I dunno why I can't control my impulses, but after I beat someone racing I get a shit eating grin on my face that I can't hide :D

You should've waited for him to pull by you, to give him a view of that grin.

:iceslolan Nice kill.

What speed did you let off? Did you put on your hazards?

Because when racing guys like that, if you didn't put on your hazards, you actually lost. :grinyes: J/K man, good kill on the poor lil Si.

haha uuuh i ran it out to about 90... by that point i had busses on him and i hadda stop for another light... and no, i didn't have my hazzards on haha

good kill, its a wonder to me that theres still people out there that dont know grand prixs can be pretty quick.

why did you have to beat him that bad........you should have let off at a car and then get on it if he trys a ricer flyby...........lol

those Si's are duds and are total trash. very very crappy and over priced car. its hard to believe that people would actually pay money for those cars and thinks they're fast. good kill.

isnt't the new SI supposed to be a lot better though? rumors are 195 whp, not 195 at the crank :grinyes:

well its rated by honda at 197 crank... and the times ive seen suggest that it runs mid to high 15s. id think that a car with 195whp and weighs a lil less than 2900 lbs would run faster than mid 15s. but then again it does suffer in the tq department. im inclined to think the honda rating isnt far off. my car is slightly heavier, a lil above 3k lbs, has 190hp crank and runs similar times. but my car has a considerable tq advantage over the Si.

Nice kill. :smokin:

the lack of tq can be made less apparent when you have tight gear ratios ( which the new Si has ) also the new Si does indeed have decent grunt. they may only got it to run a mid 15 but look at the trap speed. that sucker traps at 95 mph. thats good for a high 14 if he can hook up right.

Yea... the GTP is def a sleeper, and very easily upgradeable... i also agree with that guy talkin bout the Si bein over priced and over rated... i guess there's a lot of 17 year old idiots out there who don't bother to do a little basic research before they spend dady's 20k.

heh actually the price is incredibly inflated now, its more like 34k, pathetic. its because of the F&F movies...

that makes sense with the Si being FWD and slightly more hp. so basically its not as bad from a roll, but is nothing special from a dig.

The hp rating on the Si is impressive at first glance but, c'mon, my fiancee's 04 Sunfire has more torque.

haha... i'm a little dissapointed in honda, they could have done much better than what they have done. But once again, you cannot take an N/A 4 banger (even a v-tec) and expect the impossible. Sure there are some quicker N/A cars (v-tec preludes come to mind... type-r's) but these cars still arn't gonna be able to hang with boosted or v8's untill you put some serious cash into them. Moral of the story: If you want a powerful 4 cylinder, you have to use boost, no way around it, and untill honda decides to do that, they'll keep on putting out 15 second sprots cars (only axception i can think of is the rsx type s and that's still nothing to write home about)
