why

I posted a thread about losing to an Integra gs-r a few weeks ago right? Well today I came across a 96-98 hatch with a gs-r swap (he had the badge on the back and it was plenty faster than a sohc), exhaust, rims, yada yada.. So I ran against him over and over, coming up on his bumper when behind him, pulling away while in front, and putting about a car or so when side to side. Why the hell would I beat this little hatch and not my buddy's heavier Integra? Not like it takes driver skill to plow through the gears at freeway speeds..

Re: why

I don't know what's so hard about flooring it on the freeway and shifting around redline though. We were both in 4th gear and I was pulling on him, no shifting involved.

Maybe that Integra has a freak motor or something, like your b18b

I still don't understand how your car is so fast. Is it gutted to the bone or something?
