race!
well i let my buddy go in my car against a rsx type s with exhaust my friend chris's car. the first run, the crossfire was 1 and an a half car lengths. then danny who was in my car found the sweet spot launch at 2,500. the next run we had him by three cars almost, then sunday night, i ran a hatch back with a b16 vtech, exhaust, headers, lowered and intake pulleys. he's suppose to be running a 14.3 but i don't think he was. on the roll we where neck and neck till fourth gear, then i started to pull in front hard. i also had ran him again, he was about a half of a car in front and by the end of fourth i was probably a good foot in front of him, that is the front end of my car! well get pics or video next if we can cuz, i know we have alot of people who don't believe runs. i hear a stock rsx type s runs in the 14.7. also the guy could drive, he had it a while. i think he's is the 200 hp not the 210 one.
itr= not available for years, and when it comes to modding potential, at least for the motor, its more or less a dead heat, you can run a 13.8 for about 1200 (cold air, headers, hondata, itr head or k24 head).
i'll have to take it to the track but we still think the cars are alittle faster but i know third gear sux! i hope to open up my car soon, custom air intake at exoticmotorsports, borla, you know pulleys from evo, chip. got to drive about and hr to md for that mod. haha i hope to have all the mods done by this coming spring and lowered and rimed.

And have you ever seen a rsx type s with those mods run at the track or are you just forum reading? Personally I have never seen it.
only a turbo one from car view 2 in delaware but he has like 20 ex grand into the car, yeah i love the camaro (cream i want to start a 69' when i get a house). no room right now for it, im hoping to get into the 13's with the crossfire and leave it alone. i may go farther cuz us guys can't leave a stock car alone. hey what do you have done to your srt4? my friend dave just got his done, well back from blowing up. he posted 4 something wheel hp. its yellow with a black strip and he usual runs at the srt nationals. later

Now it is stock except for a short throw. Buying either a '03-'04 Cobra or '04-'05 STi. If I can't find something soon, it will go stage 3 w/toys. And then all my time and cash will go to the maro.

I won't even bring up handling. ITR>RSX Type Slow.

you go to stage three make sure you upgrade the clutch and fly wheel. i heard there's alot of problems with them handling the power. i had two friends that had the flywheel torque off the crank shaft (i think that's it i'm not sure) or some kind of problem like that.

Just the stage 3/big turbo guys and fully bolted on stage 2 on HOM are the ones I have to worry about it.
By winter, I should be in the mid 12's. Without drag radials.

Considering people on the stock rubber are cutting 1.7 60's. Call me crazy but I don't think it will be necessary for the amount of power i am putting down.
i'm sure he's talking about the srt4 with the 14 times not the sti! hey you'll have a good time with the STI, just don't drift into any telephone poles or curbs cuz that boost really kicks in! i'm waiting till 2007 for the supra or the GT-R awd both around 30 or so grand but worth it.

My next car is definitely a 2006 ZO6. I'll buy one when I grad law school. And keep the STi as my daily. W00t!
