beat by a sentra se-r

i have a h22a accord 4th gen stock (just made the swap) and i went to race and got beat by this sentra 94 se-r 2 times.....i know im stock but i supossed to have more torque and horses but he beat me!!!!!!no he did not have turbo or nos!!!!because i ask him........so what you think?if i put a intake thats going to give like 5 or 10 hp but i dont think that is going to make a difference because he was beating me at launch....can you guys tell me at what revv should i launch????

:(

I'm not to sure, there's a Sentra hatchback I can't beat on a straightaway but on the curvier roads I can take the Sentra. I love to race through winding roads, its soooo fun.

just practice driving, ur probably not capable of driving the h22 to its potential yet

agreed...:o

It's obvious that driving skill is lacking since you stated that he was beating you "at launch."

no i dont think he had nos because we live in tijuana mex.and over here to put a nos system is too hard since not everybody has 500 for a nos system!!!!and since over here if we get racing by the cops we just give them 40 bucks and they let us race all the the time we want!!! I think was my error cuz i was launchin at 5000 revvs iand i read in other forums that if you launch in VTEC you lose time so i think thats my problem i need to practice practice practice......next week im going after him.....:mad:

What kind of power does a H22 put out?

Thats a dissapointing story. My friend has the same exact setup as you with i/h/e and he pulls consistent mid-high 14's. I beat a spec V that was spraying when I was only running 6 psi.

agreed, the h22 is a great setup :)

you were launching at 5500 rpm? woah try launching at about 1500, dump the clutch and hit the gas to the floor......... if you dump it at 5500 your just going to spin.... when you get a bad launch it is very hard to recover.

Yup, practice as much as you can. And dump earlier... burning out is not the objective there

You aint driving right maANG........ but gettin spanked by a sentra.....when you got an h22 :( Keep ur head up.

I dont think 1500 is right either. I never have driven an accord with an H22, so I guess it might have the torque to pull hard from low revs, but in m6y friends B16 teg, if you dropped it at 1500, it is slow tilit gets to like 4 at least. I know you get more grip at the track, and you were on the street, but at the track, we could rev it to like 4.5k, drop it and it still barely spun at all. try like 3k or so.

what the heck does a ser and a h22 engine put out

horsepower and torque

haha a Honda? Putting out torque? What is this engine some kind of miracle worker? :smoka: Seriously though what how much does it put out?

depends on which h22
93-00 jdm 200hp 161trq
93-00 usdm 190hp 156trq
97-98 jdm type s 220hp 153trq

i have no clue what that year SER puts out

to my knowledge(i may be wrong) they put out 140 hp...

FYI, 91-93 Sentra SE-Rs are capable of 15.1-15.2s stock, and mid-high 14's with bolt-ons.

se-r's are good cars. my friend has two. a 91 and a 94. the 94 has a jdm sr20 in it. his 91 ser hit mid 15's stock and his 94 ser hit a 15.1 with the basic bolt ons but he couldn't get any traction so he is very capable of high 14's. don't underestimate the classic se-r's :flash:
