hi i am planning on getting a 2000 gsr. i know it has 170hp but how fast do u think it would run i a 1/4?? And what would be the #1 thing u would put on first air intake etc.. also i have only heard a little about a vtec controller what exactly does this do? forgive me i spend alot of money trying to get my ford ZX2 fast and know i have just got fed up so i would like to start all over again with a gsr thanks for the help fellas.. and info would help.

It should be mid 15s depending on how good you are. I usually notice exhausts put on first, its like the import calling card. Ford sucks. Its not that I dont like domestics, I just hate Ford, I also hate Volkswagens. Chevy's cool.

2000 gsr should run around a 15.4 stock (could do a touch lower if u REALLY can drive.)

as for wut to do first, search the boards on here...its been covered a LOT.

vtec controller does exactly that...u can control the engagement point of the secondary cam profile.

a gsr is simple to get into the 14's, w/ turbo u can get into 12/13's...(even tho the ls is better base for low-budget turbo).

really, its up to u on the build.

thanks for info.. one more thing does the vtech controller make it faster and does it mess the engine up after continous use?

Easy now that will get you into alot of trouble around here

The vtec controller won't really make it any faster so to say, I think they are a waste of money. If you decide to get some aftermarket cams etc it can help but for just alittle more money you can get a hondata which is 100 times better. My

They do look cool though, like the A'pexi V-AFC, and you can mess around with some other stuff too. But I agree its only necessary for lifted redlines and more modded cars. Hondata would also be a better choice as the original( ) whtteg pointed out.
