Re: hondas are slow

Funny how you left out the part about you instigating over in the Integra forum...your posts there were pointless...just as starting this thread.
There is always a faster car out there...I guarentee there are hondas that will smoke you, and I guarentee that there are eclipses that can smoke anyone in the honda forum...so what.
Stop stirring sh!t up with worthless posts.

Any car can be fast.

It's not really fair to compare an N/A Honda to a boosted DSM.

Think about it, the N/A DSM are only 150 hp.. that's not much. If you boost a Honda it can be just as fast as a Mitsubishi.

As already said, there's lots of Hondas that can probably beat DSMs and vice versa.

Last friday, for instance, I watched a Prelude walk on a boosted Talon.. multiple times.

Shit, I've seen a civic walk all over a lightly modded Z06. You can't compare one car to another in terms of speed (unless we're talking stock vs. stock), and anyone that does is just fucking stupid.

100% correct. Don't drop to their level, and waste valuable bandwidth.

Re: hondas are slow

there are different engines in the N/A Eclipses and the turboed eclipses just so you know Vtec so you cant go off of the horsepower that the 420A engine puts out compaird to a 4g63

I'm aware of that.. I'm just saying it's not very fair to compare a boosted car to a N/A car.

Re: hondas are slow

^ very true, but pr0 has a point too, so whats a manly car then a civic? Infact I'm jealous of hondas, they're able to get 50 horses to the wheels just off a muffler. Not too many cars can do that. And I do know that some DSMs are riced out and I hate it. But in all honest it's mostly civics.
