Which is the fast car out of these.

Which car is the fastest for drag racing(mods included under 5k, please list mods)?
1. Mitsubishi Eclispe GSX
2. Acura Integra Type-R
3. Civic Si
4. Dodge Neon R/T
5. Toyota Celica GTS
Sorry this is only for compact cars if you didn't already notice.

Fastest as in what? Drag racing? Auto-x? Road racing? Top speed?

:confused:

Depends what mods.

I'd say the Type-R without.

It depends which model Ecplise he is refering to. Generation 2 GS-T or GSX models are very tuneable. Easily capable of becoming a 13 second car.

The Eclipse's main asset is 4WD...they just hook right up

Integra.

Integra R

Integra Type R. But if the Eclipse is the older AWD one, Eclipse.

I'd go with an older Eclipse turbo. Theres just something about that AWD :D

The eclipse will kick asses wit mods.(TURBO):D

I think you need some Nissans in the list.. then I could answer :D

Its called SR16VVT N1 and it will eat all of those.

I must also agree.

GT-S 4 Ben N1 is the Primera that made 197hp out of 1.6L right?

yes is the vzr1 197 hp from a 1.6 liter,pretty amazing.14,23 1/4vmile.

ITR

above 6000 RPM...Integra type R

I would have to say the Type R, definately

I would say the Integra only because there are no real cars up on the list :D

the eclipse is and the intrega is second.

But if I had to pick from the list it would be the Type-R....

I voted for the Neon :finger:

Mine is fast because it has Acura seats in it....but I still need to put my red "R" sticker on my bumper.


Just playin' :p

Had it been the SRT Neon I would have picked that, but alas I voted for the Integra. Out of the group I would say it is the fastest "stock."

The Eclipse GSX will win drag against any of those cars. AWD is just that much better. (this is the eclipse the thread-starter was talking about).

but on fast and the lame didnt they say that the eclipse he had was a 10 second car?

BOOOM
my brain just exploded

5k into the eclipse and its running 11's.

the ITR no prob..
cause if we're turboin` the eclipse, we're turboin` the R too..
so i still got money on the R

Yeah buddy, the Eclipse is FACTORY turbocharged you know, designed to handle boost, to where the R has that 11.0:1 compression ratio, thats called ALL MOTOR, not a good idea to turbo those.

You can lower the compression ratio you know.

Well, then he should have put the designation, how were we supposed to know? The Type R is the fastest on that list, but yes a GSX will beat a Type R.

"You can lower the compression ratio you know."

So your talking about rebuilding the motor(ie. lower CR internals and/or installing head plates?) Then WHY would you buy a Type-R?



"Well, then he should have put the designation, how were we supposed to know?"


ANYONE who knows a thing about imports would know he was talking about a GSX. WHY would you pit a low model, non-turbo, no AWD stripped Eclipse against the Holy Grail of Hondas? You knew what he was talking about and so did everybody else.

the eclipse is the obvious answer. anyone who thinks different is dumb. the type r is weak, a n/a fwd car cant compete with awd turbo power.
if you can find a real type r thats hitting 8s and 9s like the talons and eclipses id be happy to withdraw my statement. since this wont happen my only advice is to use common sense, a honda is still a honda even after 5k. you have to realize there are fast cars that dont wear an H badge.

People turbochage N/A cars all the time. It doesn't reqire a rebuild to lower the compression. And anyone that uses a spacer between the head and block in an idiot. You can lower the compression by using shorter rods or raplacing the pistions, it isn't that hard.

Whatever, you know that there is the ES which is N/A and FWD, there is the GS-T which is turbocharged and FWD, then there is the GSX which is turbocharged and AWD. Give me a break, the GSX isn't the only Elclipse you can buy that is fast.

you know i hafta say the ITR hehe :D

So in fact, you would have to pull the motor apart, and replace the higher compression internals with lower ones, just like I stated.:rolleyes:


I'll state again, so you want to pit a $25k Honda against a sub-$20 Eclipse. The non-turbo Eclipses are a joke, like the non-turbo 3000GT. How about top-dog VS top-dog?:smoker2:

Replacing the pistons OR changing the rods is not a rebuild. A rebuild is more like replacing the head, the head gasket, valves, rockers, lifters, crank, pistons, rods, I mean the list goes on.

Yeah the GS-T and the GSX will smoke a Type R, too bad for the Type R that it's N/A.

Maybe not a TOTAL rebuild, but ripping the motor apart and putting in new internals, it might as well be.

"Yeah the GS-T and the GSX will smoke a Type R." The best thing you've written.

Why don't you go pick up a copy of Modified Mag and see really fast imports; you'll notice theres no H's in there.:smoker2:

Dodge Neon R/T
0-62mph in 5.9sec
(i have a doubt on the Eclipse...)

the GSX in the 1/4 is the quickest on that list. the short 60fts that car is capable gives it some great E/Ts.

whats the talk about head plates and shorter rods? wtf? u do realize that it takes minimal head gasket differences to make a half point change in compression ratio. if the compression was to be reduced, dished pistons and a differnt head would do the trick..

Eclipse GSX

how about $500 in a eclipse and $500 in the ITR and see which gains the most power

integra... but it doesnt have skyline =/

I would have to say Integra Type R:sly:
