civic vs SSS (b16a vs sr20de)

[incoming]

hehe

i can add another notch to my belt!!!

standing start, we both had good launches... no wheel spins just traction!!!...
well i'd have to say that was one of my better runs cos there was no wheel spin and vtec kicked in within the 1st 15m,... i was pretty surprised cos i was infront the whole time and pulled him by two car lengths and getting further!! ahahah

he said he had done his driveline in his SSS and he got it back about a week eariler...

my friend with his MY02 wrx wants to race for fun... i know ill get my ass kicked but i wana see by how much heehe

What sort of SSS?

If it was a Bluebird then there was no race in it. Even an old crappy VTi could take one of those.

If it was an early SR20 powered Sentra (circa 1990) then thats not a bad kill. And it certinaly counts. If it was a later one, then well unforunatly they got heavier and slower, and so the race becomes easier and easier.

it was a nissan pulsar SSS, umm.... it was a aussie model not the jap.

its a 5 door hatch, like the nissan pulsar gti-r but 5 door heheh with out the turbo/bonnet...

certainly looks better (to me anyhow)

Not wanting to burst your bubble or anything, but beating an Aussie spec SSS (or most Aussie 4s for that matter) isn't much to write home about

Nailing a rotary, turbo or 8 in a NA Honda maybe, but that's about it

SR20DE without turbo = DIE!

Well the NZ spec 1990ish SSS Sentra had 160hp, same as my car, but the SSS is a lot heavier, and the SR20 DOES NOT like to rev.
In fact compared to the B16a its very very agricultural.

However the next model I believe only had the standard 140hp, same as all the other SR20 cars. = SLOW!

i had about 4 runs with a my01 wrx the other night... very interesting.
he absolutely killed me twice (mad fwd traction).
but i noticed he didn't seem to be pulling.

then he bogged it, so i got about 1/2 a car off the launch. he didn't draw level with me until about the end of third gear... maybe 140km/h or so.
he had a loud-as exhaust system and bov.
i'm basically stock. i was feeling pretty chuffed after that.

the rest of the runs weren't so interesting as we kept getting stuck behind other cars... damn epping road traffic.

140km isn't the end of third gear

I should know... I hit it the other day closer to 175 - 180

the b16a is the DOHC VTEC like in Moppies car right????????????????

if that is the case, the thought of an SR20DE even trying to keep up with one is completely ludicrous

The Boy learns quickly.

He must be watched and trained in the ways of the Honda before the power of the Euro Side gets to him. For I also feel that it is strong with in him.

There is no need all-mighty respected elder, I come from a family that, until recently has been 100% VTEC Honda drivers (Jimmy and my Dad are still the only traitors)

There is no Yaya here my child. Only powered by Honda.

And do not heed the words of the Euro ones, for they are followers of the Euro side, and do not know the goodness of the Honda.
They live on name only, a name that has lost its greatness and relys on the badge enginering and the Marketing to lie to the people.
Only the Honda stands strong and independant, and builds greatness that needs no false marketing.
