MARTIN you are right...i never said that the bseries what a better motor...i did say the k was....if you have the money....now for most ppl that drive a honda they dont have the money for that kinda stuff. they have to take a loan out just to do the k swap...witch after mounts/ecu/exhaust/and the wireharness you have 7500 in the the swap ez..and that is for a stock motor of what 200+ hp

gr8 motor it just cost to much to build for the normal person..when you can turbo a sohc and have 200 hp for alot less..........caz anyways you look at it 200 hp is 200hp i dont care if you use a vx motor to get it its still 200hp

lol i dont even care my rx7 would beat the kid woot lol it would more then likeley beat the 646hp motor you where talking about

cheers PaTricK

Love the 1st gen

MARTIN

What do you have that you are so cocky??? This street car hits 9's... Im jsut wondering..

BTW, you can do a kswap for the same ammount as an re swap...

i have a 12a on nitrous...in a car that has had extream gutting done to it. a 8 point cage.. and 26x10.5x15 mt et streets....there is alot more stuff on the car it does not take much to get a well set up 1st gen in the 9's it can be done with 300hp

and im sure the car you are talking about does not run 9's in the street fwd dont hook up in the street...they have a hard time hooking up at the track

MARTIN

yea, some mods like n2o... Like I said n/a without touching the block gets you low 13's....

speedfreak95

wow this thread got jacked. even with a relash i still do not think he is going to beat a 300whp rx7. You gota remember what these cars where built for. speed. the rsx was not necesarily built for the same purpose. please the rx7 is got 50/50 weight distribution. it is lower to the ground and the suspension is not to shaby either. all you have to do in the rx-7 is ease into it in 1st and let the other gears do thier thang. i know because my car stock facing a wrx. I totaly wasted him from 0-60 by a good three cars. i also had some wheel hoop. You cant tell me they arent around the same horsepower either.

I was wondering the same. I even know that you want to see that.

Now, my question is why 3mm seals?

A guy I work with has an RSX and not too long ago we 'raced' while heading back to work after lunch, meaning that as we left town he tried to pass me where the speed limit went from 40 to 65. He'd been right up on my ***, kind of juking around a bit, showing off for the guy that was with him. Anway, it wasn't even remotely a contest. I was in L with the hold off so essentially running in 2nd gear, I stepped on the gas but didn't floor it, took it to 7K, shifted to S and he was history. Yeah, he was stock and had a passenger but I expected more out of that Acura.
I can't imagine your FD with the mods you've got having to worry about that RSX, though as others have stated he could have some surprises he is wanting to spring on you, and the RSX can easily be turned in to a real street-fighter with a few bucks here and there. Nice cars, actually.

rx7 punk

I know for a fact I can rape RSX's all day long in my V6 Tiburon. The type S puts up a fight but most of the time I can take them.

My tiburon is stripped with Greddy duals, AEM, and DC headers.

You wont have a problem

timmybighands

Here is a little clip of an 02 RSX Type-S with mods simialar to the ones your buddy claims his car has... I dont know man... this little RSX is ******* FAST. If the video doesn't work, wait a bit and then reload it - it plays after it loads completely.

http://media.putfile.com/RSX-15-125mph

The car has basic bolt-ons, I/H/E/Kpro tunable ecu... some other minor things. Weight reduction down to 2560lbs net weight and around 210whp. Does a 300hp un-tuned FD pull like that? I seriously dont know, I've never driven or been inside one.

MARTIN

I RAPE v6 tiburons..... I raced one last night... Look, rape is bullshit, I'll believe you if you are talking about 02-04 type-s and that you were neck n neck with them being 100% stock..

rx7 punk

No I can rape a new RSX (not the type S), the type S is another story. Those are alot quicker.

Sorry for not be very specific

BlkS5TII

Maybe you're just used to slow cars.

Shinobi-X

They only have 155hp and terrible gear ratios for performance. By 3rd gear, its already at .98:1 ratio (the gf owns one). I'd sooner choose a Mazda 3 for cheap/quicker competition.

timmybighands

It's possible. I'm not going to sit here and tell you I'm an all-knowing car god because I've owned this n' that. I'm just saying that for a frieking 4 banger, that thing gets up. I'd say that car is pulling JUST as hard if not MORE than a slightly modded 7. Do you disagree with that?

BlkS5TII

I had a ~190whp 2400lb(nearly full interior) Celica GTS that doesn't seem too far from that. From a dig it would still be walked by my lightly modded TII. From a roll the high revving I4 was able to get into its powerband faster and had no worries about traction, so it could actually put up a fight and win sometimes. But rolls are for bakeries, so chalk it up to the FD. That RSX is probably in the mid 13's, while a 300whp FD is breaking 12's with the right driver.

Wow how old are you people that are still talkin about this thread... no way are you older than 17, Cause if you think 210whp screams and is faster than 300whp rx7 you guys are smokin sum str88 crack.... Are you crazy man.... I used to have a wrx and it would smash on those cars.... 7 is on such higher level than an rsx type S man.. cmon now'

timmybighands

STFU. I said for a 4 banger, it's fast. I said on an untuned 7, he might have a problem.

No way I'M older than 17? Please - I posted VIDEO's, some FACTUAL information, and did so quite politely. Here you come, making an *** of yourself and being a *****. I say, there's no way YOUR more than 17.

"I used to have a WRX and it would smash those cars"... Yeah, ******* right. We all know that every small-dicked, barely past puberty 17 year old punk behind a computer suddenly has supercars modded to heaven and used to beat everything else out there. Stop trying to grow some Kong Nuts behind your computer and look at the topic: If this guys untunned 7 goes heads up with a well tuned RSX like the one in the video, he might have a problem - that's all. He asked for the possibilities, we're giving him the answers. Get the **** out with your "I used to own..." bullshit and post some information this guy can use.

The vid I posted is an accurate representation of a modded RXS's pull. If his car pulls harder than that, great - he used the video to get a good idea. If it doesnt, maybe I saved him the embarrasment until he gets tuned.

*EDIT* I'm 27 dickwad.

stock rsx is nothing compared to rsx type s with mods

MARTIN

I hope you had an sti, cus I wrx are ******* pigs....

MARTIN

A base rsx doesn't even have vtec...

rt turbo

yeah, cant believe people are even debating this. i absolutely worked a rsx-s with a greddy turbo kit. this was last night on 1/2 100 octane and 15psi with an exhaust leak between the motor and turbo (in the mani). they are a joke compared. not even close.


p.s. this dude was saying he was ganna rape my ***. said his car was stronger than most supras. they are jsut like the srt4 guys, came from a really slow car and doesnt know what a actual real fast car feels like. afterwards he made me pull over and show him i have stock turbos and no nitrous. lame *** put up so many excuses.
