Went from a 20, pulled about 6 cars by 90. Next race I gave him the kick and I pulled about 3 cars by 90. This was from a 45. Car is damn quick for what it is, next race will be with him a 50 shot then 75 if he needs it. This is going to be close, I hope I don't lose to a Honda!

 

50 more HP isnt going to make up 6 carlenghts from 45-90 Stop picking on the hondas

 

Nice kills.

I don't think you have anything to worry about with the NOS - he just needs to get a real sports car to compete.

 

I don't know, with a 50 shot he might be in the 220 whp range. Right now from my last dyno I am at 226 . He should therefore beat me good considering his car weighs 400 lbs. less.

 

If you lose to a Honda then you will be banned.

 

j/k BTW

 

Why do you guys talk like 3rd gens are unbeatable. The H22 prelude motor comes with around I think 190 or more hp & a 75 dry shot of nitrous through his intake will put him around 235hp easy. I'll I can say is if your putting out about 226hp, watch your back because once that Vtec opens up at 5200rpms, thats when hes gonna start spraying the nitrous.

P.S. Please videotape the race if it happens cause I have a feeling ppl on here are gonna get a rude awakening. Also please post what mods the Civic has.

 

Why would he wait until 5200 RPM to start spraying?

 

Haha, I put down 226 by 5500 RPMS and then stopped. They dyno guys were having trouble getting a reading. I have a lot more power then the 226. The H22 motor is 200 hp. He said he was probably putting down 170 whp with his exhaust and intake. After his 75 shot he hopes to put down 225. Noone said the FD was the fastest car, but a bolt-on FD can take an h22 coupe fairly well from my experience. But with that shot it should be fairly close, with me putting probably 280 to the ground and him 225. The weight difference could make it a close race.

 

Good question? Why the hell would he do that?

 

Because he is in a honda and that gives him the reason to everything assbackwards

 

He would do that because once he is on the higher cam lobe when vtec hits the nitrous will give him more power than if he would have hit it early.
By the way the h22a4 that comes in the US preludes has 200hp. But since he has a swaped engine im going to guess that its a JDM h22 which has 210hp. When he gets on that nitrous you better watch your back

 

I know, that is what I was saying. And yes it is the JDM. When he is in a higher cam lobe it will give him more power? That is bullshit, if he sprays the whole time he is going to recieve faster results because of extended power throughout the band. Not considering traction that is. If he sprayed in only VTEC in each gear then he would get screwed when he shifted.

 

What does your RX-7 run a 1/4 mile in?

 

Not sure, probably 13.2 or so. But it is a hell of a lot faster from a roll.

 

Assuming he's using a WOT switch, he wouldn't want to spray too low if he had a wet kit because it can cause a fire. With a dry kit though I don't think that's really an issue. He just needs to make sure he has good injectors.

 

The only time he wont be in Vtec is from a dig where he would have to be retarded to use NOS. The H22 is geared that the Vtec over laps from gear to gear so you stay in the power band the whole time.

 

Well I don't know much about those engines but that is not was he is going to do I do not think and he is very knowledgable on these engines.

Either way, no matter when he sprays, I think it will be a good run.

 

Oh, my bad. I thought you were just running on 1 rotor or something was seriously fucked up in your motor. On H22 the Vtec kicks in at 5200rpms. Why does this matter?? Because the injectors dump more fuel into the motor when Vtec kicks in, so if he were to spray at 3200rpms in 2nd gear then hes gonna lean out. Of course since you guys are running from a roll. I guess since you guys are running from a roll, he already should be around 4k in 2nd gear so he might start start spraying from the word go. Tell your friend to get some headers because he gonna need help releasing all that extra air.

The reason I said that about Fd owners is because alot of you are so confident in your cars. Like its the fastest cars on earth.

 

Naa, I have got beat too much to beleive that. By Hondas!

 

I've been waiting for something like this to come around, because I have an H22 civic ex. The best time i got out of mine was a 14.4 @98mph and then ran a 14.2@78mph on a 75 shot of NOS, the reason was my alternator belt flew off 3/4 of the way down, because i missed a gear and over reved. But my 1/8 mile time was an 8.9. Mine is JDM that makes 182 WHP untuned. So unless his motor is an H22 Type-S that makes 220 then you should have no problem whooping him If your car is running low 13's.
Good luck w/ the race.
BTW im selling my civic to get an FD

 

i hate civics

 

i have a question how is a civic coupe with a heavier h22 400lbs lighter than an fd do you weigh 400lbs or what

 

I'm surprised that the honda lost by that much.

Hatchback with h22 should easily be in 13s bone stock, mid 13s with good bolt-ons, most likely 12s with 75 shot.

Unlike the heavier rx-7's, those things go exponentially faster with slightest of increase in power output because they are so light.

I would assume 220whp is good for 12s, 250whp is good for 11s( prepped, of course)

 

COUPE^^^^^^ did you see not a hatch =)
now coupe vs 7 not a huge weight diff like you are thinking
