Okay....So you hit second and just decided to "wait". A LOT of these stories on this forum have me scratching my head, especially when you have people "hanging with/ beating" LS1's and the like with FB's and FC's. Makes me think, is it a joke sometimes? And the good ol' "Its because we're SOOO LIGHT!" excuse comes into play...

clean85owner 06-21-05 12:29 PM

2300 lbs + turbo at 12 PSi = a car fast enough to surprise you.

Maybe you should buy a clue and realize that our weight is not an excuse, but rather, an advantage against the pigs that now roam the highways and bi-ways of our country.

It shouldn't be that hard for you to realize that when you weigh, on average, atleast 700 pounds less than the majority of the other cars on the road, you don't need massive power to blow the doors off of many people. Of course, when you drive a cruise ship like you do, it is a little easier to understand how you can't understand the concept of "light weight."

For example, take a first gen and give it 255 flywheel horsepower just like the stock FD and run them. The 500 pound advantage to the FB will all but guarantee a victory.

Nice kill, TurboSE! Rep. the FB well, man.

Just because our cars didn't come with as much power as the FD, doesn't mean that we can't be fast, too.

i never lost to an fb ever in my s2000 and only lost to one fc with 390 to the wheel so duh but yeah i call bs on this one but oh well good kill man(i guess)

ducktape 06-22-05 08:39 AM

:high-five:

Those S2K guys have a serious ego-problem. On the one hand they do have a beautiful, reliable, sweet handling little roadster. On the other hand they just payed $32,000+ for a 14.5 second car.

I love pulling on em too. Even the modded ones just can't hang! 'Grats on the kill.

Ok an FC with a TII engine on stock turbo at 12 PSI will take an S2000, i'm almost positive, Let alone an FB with a TII swap running 12lbs!

Tournapart 06-22-05 10:50 AM

yeah i find it funny that RX7's FB FC and FD's are so cheap for what you get, they really are. the motors are pretty easy to rebuild if you gave a more advanced knowlege of how to break things down and put them back together properly, much more so than a piston engine. and yet, people still shit out 30 40 50 60 70K on cars that look nice but still cant truly out perform a 15K FD with 30K under the hood.

People that start to pay 30- 70k for cars dont really always buy them for performance, they want the status attatched to the vehicle. And people who DO buy those cars for performance...usually mod their cars to destroy an FD with a lot of money invested such as owners of Porsches, Vipers, Supras, Z06's...etc. Not to mention that these cars also dont have to rebuild their engines as often..if at all.

ohh yeah, I forgot about all those piston engines that don't need a rebuild until 500k. Rotaries are more reliable when beat. Race engines are typically rebuilt less than piston counterparts.

Yea we do. :rolleyes: Like most of us really give a shit if we get beat by an FB or FC. :rofl:


90% of the s2k's that you run up against on the street don't have any mods that make any power. Bolt-ons do close to nothing on that engine. Supercharged or Turbo'd s2k's are pretty brutal on a course or on the highway where the high-revs make a differance.


I laugh my ass off everyday when I see kids in their 240's and FC's that rev on me. It's flattering.

Meh. I've beaten a supercharged S2K from a dig, and twice from a highway-roll... in 5rd gear... on low boost... They're really just not that impressive, even boosted.

The saddest thing is, I've managed to raw-time at least 1 modded S2K in local autocrosses with nothing done to prop up my 20 year old suspension but a set of 225-series Hoosiers. If anything, I should have gotten my ass-stomped there! Of course, the driver is the ultimate factor here but still!

most S2k owners really just dont care. Yes, they probably have a first reaction of :eek: when an older car walks them. But the reality is, most of these guys still have a reliable, warranty covered, 240hp, car which revs to 9k rpms without taking a breath. Do you really think that they go home and wonder why they got beat by a 10+ year old car? Most likely, No. But if they do, they spend the amount of money it took for you to buy your car and use it towards performance. Give me a break, an FC or 240sx is an old car. My DSM is an old car. So what if they can be made crazy fast with modifications? So can the s2000. And the s2000 not so impressive? And stock FC's and 240sx's are? An 04 S2k can run a 14.10 and there have been reports of good drivers getting 13.7 not so impressive? Get over yourselves. The S2k is an impressive car, especially for a honda.

Fumanchu 06-22-05 09:56 PM

Atleast there is some kind on intelligence left in here.


I used to have the same mindset as these kids too. I used to love beating more expensive cars when I was in high school. Thats like the argument all the rotard FD guys still use on this forum. They always rag on Porsche's and NSX's about how slow they are and a waste of money. Which in reality they are just masking jealously issues because they are rocking a piece of shit 10 year-old Japanese sports car. :rofl: :rlaugh:

rebuild FD 06-22-05 10:07 PM

for 10 years old, my FD with bolt-ons only will humiliate S2000s, 3000 GTs, NSXs, and not a few Porsches, look sexy doing it, and remain one of a handful of such cars on the road

cheap "piece of shit" or not, I like it :)

TurboSE 06-22-05 10:18 PM

wow I see there's a lot of HATERS Here/ I dont care About the shit talking. going on here/ But I raced that guy B/C He was beeing a JERK! and i did'nt even expect to Win! My car is running mega rich and It feels kinda Slow.......BTW i kept up w/ a G35X on the freeway about 20 mins ago.......I know my car sux at High speeds But , when some stupid kid on an expensive car Pulls Up next to me and start Revving or Driving like He wants It........I will Let Him Know What A little 1.3 liter Car can Do!!! And i never brag about my car or mods....In fact Like someone said on this post My POS 20+ year old car W/ faded paint ,dented fender,and More.....He is right!<<<<LOL My car looks just like that! :D (he probably knows me or sumethin!

Good for you. You had a goal to make a fast car for cheap. I could have done it easily aswell. But that wasn't my goal. I had a goal of getting away from the shitty rotary engine in my FD and get an s2k? Is it that hard to comprehend?


Same rotard excuse, different day. :bigthumb:

Maybe you can help me with this...how is it that a 240 hp car, in stock form can have a turbo installed and put down a pathetic 257 rwhp??? i'm assuming a blown s2k would be about the same if not weaker...how much is it putting down at the wheels(crank doenst really help too much, just a number you can brag about)??? too bad you guys cant gain shit with boltons, seems like you need it! even with forced induction, can they break 300???

THE WORLD GOES ROUND AND ROUND.............NOT UP AND DOWN!!!!

midnight_7 06-23-05 02:11 AM

I gotta admit, the S200 is the only honda I'd ever buy.

However, id give the rx-7 brownie point for at least having a glove box.

aznpoopy 06-23-05 02:21 AM

s2k is a nice car, but its painfully obvious its not a drag racer, and it wasnt designed to be. its a car made for running a road course, rpms up high, fast in the corners.

the reason s2ks (and hondas in general) dont gain shit from bolt ons is because honda knows how to build damn good engines. they are *very* well tuned from the factory. if you can't appreciate from-the-factory 'achieve more' engineering, maybe you should rethink why you like rx7s.

that being said, i have no idea what any of that has to do with this thread.

take it up farther, pass him safely by a large margin, ease into his lane, shut down and tap on the brakes. rev like an ass, think your car is hot shit; you deserve to get toasted by a 20 year old car. good kill!

I am not too sure where you got your info but most supercharged S2k's put down around 274-300rwhp with a measly 7-8 psi. Get a different pulley and bump that power easily.


There are plenty of 300+rwhp s2ks on the forum. Next time do a little research before shit pours out of your mouth.

Nah, thats ok. I didnt get any info, i was watching one on the dyno and thats all it could muster! too bad. I am well above that at the stock boost levels on the stock twins so even if i ran into one of those oh so fast s2k, i can still drive around it and laugh all the way about it.

is it that time of the month?????? its just a little trashtalk, dont have to get all pissy. lol

Who's getting pissy? I enjoy proving rotards wrong and seeing them squirm to justify their 7's. :D


In every argument when it comes down to it, a rotary lover uses the same justification to owning a 7; being only a 1.3litre, the 787 winning LeMans, and how fast their car is but being so cheap. :rofl:


Laugh all you want about slower, more expensive cars but I can honestly say a majority of those owners could care less about it.

Only a Honda owner could come into an flamewar with an admittedly slower car, and still claim to be the victor. What is this world coming to?

Who cares why I find my car attractive to me? Does it make a differance? Do you want to know what I had for breakfast this morning as well?

13.9 actually some a few have pulled 13.8s repeatedly tere had it on video look on s2ki he was all stock it is a little harder to launch but if you can drive you can launch it easily, and i have a fd so i am down with the rotarys but like i said never lost to a fb!!

You said you have never lost to a FB! Wast it a turboFB? what mods did they have?

hondahater 06-24-05 07:29 AM

^^^ I was thinking the same thing. Also fumanchu, your at it again, lol, the fact is we like our cars for a different reason than you do. We are all the type that love to wrench on cars and just plain tinker. So we have engines that require it and after we are done they do produce enough power to kill just about anything on the road and we like that. We don't mind the fact there isn't a warranty because quite frankly we wouldn't let anyone touch our cars anyways, at least I wouldn't. You like your car for a different reason. You like it because it is new, stylish, has a warranty, and you are not young any more so you really don't give a flip about racing witch to me is fine but there are other kids out there that do like the s2000 kid that was being a jack off. So turbose obliged him and whooped his ass :) nothing wrong with this story, just putting a ricer in his place.

Fumanchu 06-24-05 07:50 AM

You actually get it hondahater. That was my argument the entire time. Not everybody has the same priorities in purchasing a car. Now if I can only get the kiddies in this thread to realize this. :D
