Well Mr/Miss (who cares) dampachi, he could get a get jump off, seeing that his car is a stick. Who's to say the other guy wont f*ck up and stall? The little things count too.

The mustang will beat the GS-R almost effortlessly. I got beat by a Type-R because at first I thought it was a GS-R and I didn't go full throttle because I've beat GS-Rs pretty bad before. Then we raced again and we ran pretty head to head..but I started pulling away by 90mph. B18C5 is the Type-R motor right? And it also has a pretty high compression ratio? Yeah...I don't think I'd want to be putting NOS on that..that's built to be N/A.

um...then whats to say this guy wont fuck up and stall? Damn you're throwing alot of shit into the equasion. So, let's assume for a minute that they both launch perfectly rather than assuming he'll launch good (keep in minds he's asking advice on launching..so apparently he's not too skilled) and the mustang will launch bad (the guy already said the mustang driver is skilled at launching). So! They both launch perfectly. The mustang will definitely take a huge lead. And isn't the mustang a stick too? You can't stall an automatic..so yeah..that 'advantage' is no longer valid. Oh yeah..and it's Mr.

You also must throw in power to weight. he has a civic with a b18c5 which is lighter than the integra's either way I think if the mustang was near stock and this guy had a catback atleast he would wax the stang with little to no problem.

If the mustang spins his tires the least amount..then it's a drivers race...if the mustang shifts 2nd slow..then he should beat the mustang. Race him several times and I bet you'll get totally different outcomes eachtime.

Ok, i agree, but theres always the little things (tire pressure, driving skill, reflexes, correct shifting, etc) that play a huge factor in the race, and that was the point that i was trying to make. Its not always "who has the bigger engine". Get where I'm comin from?

Damn..you're already making excuses for a race that hasn't even taken place. Do you have any pictures of your car? I think I hear something boiling..

Jintec · #25 02-01-2005, 02:27 AM

Hey guys... thanks again for all the input... i just got a digital camera (a small shitty one) but it works and i wanna post up some pics. will somone please tell me how? also how you pic pictures so that it shows everytime you post. thanks

P.S. didnt get to race him yet.. maybe tomorrow. did smoke my friends 93 integra with a b16a no competition and a firebird from a 50 mph roll.. (my civic si gearing has its ups and downs ;D)

I just bought it, so check with me in 5 months. Unlike you, my mommy doesnt give me money to fix up my car. I work for my shit.

Ok guys this is headed in the wrong direction, instead of talking about the topic you are shifting towards flaming each other.
Let's calm it down a little.

The EG with an ITR will win hands down, every race. GT Mustangs run low 14's and very rarely get into the 13's. B18C5 eg's run mid to low 13's all day long and my friend's eg with an ITR with i/h/e ran a 12.98. The GSR will lose though.

dampachi · #30 02-02-2005, 12:17 PM

To run a 12.9 with just a B18C5 and i/h/e, he must have his car fully gutted and run drag radials. And 94civicdxtuner..that was the most gradeschool remark you possibly could have made. Since when is having pictures of your car considered 'fixing it up'? And you're not the only person in the world who has to work a job for what they want so stop pretending like you are.
