Rx-7 vs RSX??

What do you all think should be the outcome of a stock 93 Rx7 and a 04 Aura Rsx with racing headers, intake, and exhaust at about a 60MPH roll in third???

This belongs in the general section. This is not a kill. Read the rules before posting. I don't understand why people keep posting these questions here.

From a stop I know that the Rsx has NO CHANCE but at a roll I think it has a slight chance because of VTEC

Stock FD, as long as its running good.

You're lighter, have more power and you're turbo.

Thats 3 strikes on the rsx. Hes out.

Uh, RSX's are not that fast. Not even a Type S. One of my really good friends has one, and it is no contest. And thats against my FC. I would not worry too much about it in an FD.

RSX will only keep up if it has a supercharger, that's based on my experiences. A supercharged RSX is about even with stock FD. Bolt on RSX doesn't stand a chance.

well i raced one a couple years ago and it had all bolt ons, exhaust,intake,headers etc. it also had skunk2racing cams,camgears and a hondata. he beat me by a fair 3+ car lenghts. my 1990 TII was stock, only mod was a turbosmart bov. if i would've had at least an exhaust i would've smoke him for sure, but i don't think you will have any problems if he has only those mods. you have to smoke him bad even if your fd is stock.

On the highway you should kill him worse than from a dig. What was your shut down speed? Did you get into 4th or stop at the top of 3rd gear, cuz once you hit 4th you should walk away....

Theres this kid in my hometown with a type s. He supercharged it and blew the motor. So he got a type R motor and he really wants to run me. Hes got full exhaust intake and a kpro. Its funny they think that type R thing makes a big difference.

If I'm not mistaken the "Type R" motor is a K series 2.0L but not the same version as the USDM Type S motor, kinda like the Si is a K Series but different model. Unless he did something extremely stupid like buying a B series Type R motor...? I once owned a 97 Integra, but I'm not really Honda literate... never was. Just loved the appearance of the Integra. Mine looked sexy as hell... So they stole it lol Thank you much I bought an FD to "replace" it

Oh and I forgot to mention that when I raced the supercharged RSX I was running 4 psi thanks to a blown coupler on the Y-Pipe/Crossover pipe joint.

yes, you should not have any problems from a roll or from a dig if those are his only mods. the rsx i raced was pushing well over 200whp and for a n/a that's damn good. but with the mods the rsx your racing have i bet his pushing like 170whp at most. like i said, you should smoke him either from a dig or a roll with no problems.

I appreciate the comments, I just wanted to get someone else's opinion about the race. The RSX also was an 06 RSX which I think comes with type r cams and responds good to bolt on mods. The FD will definately walk on him by car some lengths next time!
