I love civics. But your car still should win. More hp more torque, lighter wieght. It will also out-handle a civic. Simple mods would be an intake, injen would probably be best for the celica, and exhaust, trd exhaust would be good. He says your car is slow?? hahaha if he's stock, even if he's got mods he's got an auto ex. That's pathetic, that should do what? high 17s maybe even 18s?

I have an auto GT with Injen intake and TRD exhaust and I'm not scared or nervous of Civics......except those damn Si's.

You should win.

stock for stock, an auto gt should take ANY auto civic, the best being an ex 2 door with like 140 hp, but the celica has more torque (i think) and a lighter weight.

race him stock just to see what would happen. ive raced lots of auto civics in my auto gt (i have i/e) and i whoop em everytime. pull on em at the start, then real hard 30-40 mph as i top out first, then not so much after it shifts, and after 55, i walk em real bad.

The Civic EX should have 127hp. Like everyone else said your auto GT has more hp and torque, and is lighter. You should be ably to shut that fool up without any mods.

Auto Civics are a joke. The only one worth looking at is the Si. You should have no problem. Your friend is smoking crack.

Why even drag race these two cars at all, about as exciting as watching bowling on TV. I mean, damn, these cars are NOT FAST, ......if you wanted to street race then why even buy cars such as these....Celicas are great handling, hard stopping, good looking cars best suited for tearing up a twisty backroad. Not one of em is very well suited to drag racing, not even my beloved GTS 6 speed. Take your man in the Honda for a run up a mountain road and if you are half as good a driver as he is all he wiil be seeing is your freakin tail lights, that is what it is all about. How is it a little Honda auto can ever be thought of as quick????? Im pissed off over something entirely different so sorry for the rant but it is true, we do not own dragsters and Honda EXs are not either.

haha bro, take him out and rape him. The auto gt might not be the fastest lil bugger in the world but it will not have any problem pulling a stock auto civic of any type.

HHH,

if it doesn't say V6 on the back, it's a 4 cyl. they are pretty peppy too.

yea, I think you should beat the civic since you have an advatage over almost everything over the civic (weight, hp, etc.) Did you even really race him?

I thought since the EX was the top of the line model Civic then it would be the top of the line Accord, my bad:o

Everyone is right, the only Civic you can't beat is an Si (an none of those are auto anyway) or if it's a heavily modded Civic (and rice doesn't count). I guess Im just posting to verify that I've beat plenty in my lil auto GT, and NO it may not be more fun than watching bowling on TV, but it'll make your friend STFU :D

booohahaha
01-09-2002, 06:19 PM
well, first of all i dont have a celi but i was browsing thru cuz im really bored at work.
i do for a fact own a ex civic. dont kill me, im not biased over cars but ill give u some advice if u wanna win
first of all,
1) lose ur GT rims and get some 13s or 14's steelies and hope they come in five bolt. smaller tires give u better pick up at the start, the ex in the states dont come with rims. so ur just moving about with dead weight.
2) make ur car light, take all ur spare tires, etc etc etc. i dont need to explain what u gotta do.
3) 140 vs 127?? not a big difference, even though u do have more HP and torque. its an auto race how fast is that!, the one who win is the one with the heaviest foot. i think ive seen ur celis have that tictronic thing i dunno if u wanna use it. grab a buddy and do a time trial see how fast u can go from point A to point B. who ever jumps first will win regardless. u might wanna do that power break thing where u hold the break and boot it.
4) a CAI and an exhaust will free some air for u!, u guyz dont have header i recall looking at my buddy gt-s! only trd japan has it.
well i guess i got some of the major stuff covered, if that dont help then u might wanna try some laughing gas hehe :D :D :D
----------------------------------
well carry on!!
hope that helps!

RTFLMAO, I have beaten auto Civics with my heavy-ass 17" rims! Thanks for the advice, but we won't be needing it :D

well good for u! u have my undivided blessing's LoL.
well skyline wants a sure win. and wat better to switch to steelies? do u mind if ur car looks like crap for just 2 or 3 races? and u win all of them? and IM NOT SAYING skyline WONT WIN!!! u dont have to drill that into me. have u ever raced from dead stop? its very slow!

i didn't read all the responses, but i can tell you from experience, you should definately be able to beat a civic. I don't know about auto's, but manual trans. stock should beat even si's....that x-man is right....first of all, civic ex vs celica gt---celica w/o a doubt, but even the SI....it does have more horsepower at the line, but our celicas have more torque, which would and WILL make a difference

t2000gts
01-09-2002, 08:33 PM
i dunno about the civics, but my old '93 accord wagon (4 cyl) has some displacement and nice torque. it'll spin the tires when powerbraking and launch hard. (i launch at 2000 and it spins up to 3500 then takes off). it would take auto GT and auto GTS off the line :D

BTW, don't bring the Si into this. it's got a manual tranny, and the torque numbers will be close (since the auto tranny sucks up a lot of the torque). plus it can actually launch (like at around 5000rpm) so it's in a different league altogether.

im in but dont expect me to have my SiR rims on!!! im gonna take a slight detour and borrow some 13's and im gonna GUT my car, no seats except for mine!! hahaha

You do that... go and waste your time putting on those 13's and gutting out your car..

You will still lose!!

Oh, and to the person racing booohahaha, do the pink slip idea that he is suggesting and be expecting a new car ;) or even too, if he pink slips the Jetta V6.

Sweetheart, why don't you go to ClubSi and REALLY learn about the honda (and how it DOES NOT stand a chance against the celica).. they would tear you up and rip your insides out the first day you posted... as well as ripping you a new a$$hole.

If SKYLINERY2K wants to go to that extent to ensure is win, then more power to him. But some GT's have steelie's with hubcaps already and even if he has the stock GT rims, the are pretty light 15"s.

Have I ever raced from dead stop? Ya, of course it's slow! But we don't need to strip our cars down to win over a Civic auto.

Oh and BTW, I don't need your blessings you sarcastic little punk.

booohahaha
01-10-2002, 10:00 PM
hahahaha,
maybe u should read up on the specs of a 2000 door ex
how much lighter is it? does it really make a difference when do u red line? is it like the gts 8000rpm?
im not here to hate, i know my HONDA! and i know my VOLKSWAGON!!! i was considering selling my ride for twin turbo mr2 (93) and see how ur little tunes would change thats the only ride i would love from toyota even the supra is alright but the mr2 engine is soo much safer to work with. but some one stopped me, telling me to go and be original personally i dont care how many AUTO civic u smoke and how u feel proud of that hahaha even though ive been tempted to ask how can u smoke a civic with 13's and u got 17's and only a CAI? u guyz have to agree with me on this but i find it really hard to believe. a little too proud eh? wait till some one handes it to u. see how i felt when i got smoked by a GSR!! personally i bought my ride to DROP a H22A j spec in or even a K20, thats all i also planned to on shaving everything off and do conversions left and right! but yea thats alright i usually go to all the boards and see what people talk about, this is a very good experience to me cuz i try not to be part of JUST HONDA. since seeing as how all the celica guyz hate civics and civics hate ford and so on!!!! its a good thing my friend doesnt really have a mentality like u guyz cuz even i dont even hate ur car's but personally i think their over priced oh by the way it was civic vs civic!! not GTS vs civic! even i know my limits! i dont go onto the streets looking for races.
u do that math, or do i have to tell u what honda has?
so im a little punk eh? u wanna try out my vr6 then? i got 17s on them! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: u seem to always talk auto!! seems to me u seem hostile when i said i owned a civic, whats the problem? i got my honda cuz its got BIG BIG BIG aftermarket support, i cant bother waiting for parts to come out. i agree u celi dudes have a nice car, looks good and agressive. i was considering but there isnt much out for it and seeing how TRD charges u an arm and a leg for parts!
by the way before i forget
its civic si vs civic ex sedan and also i dont pink slip with jason i know his bloodie gts is fast! i was only joking with him, cant u read that i was joking sheez!!!why would i give up the VR6? its got more torque than u got horsepower!!

DaksGT
01-10-2002, 10:30 PM
I don't understand why u guys are flamin boohahah or whatever he came in here nicely saying what is required to win and thats it, and then u guys teased him. Yes vr6' are fast I(my family) owned one but too many problems so my folks got rid of it.
As far as the civic, my girlfriend has one 2000 si (ex in states), we're both 5spd (my gt and her) and I'll walk her from any position possible (didn't sound too right). Unless the civic has some hardcore mods u'll own him 13's or no. Although they would help.
Hey boohaaa wanna race my civic?

booohahaha
01-10-2002, 10:35 PM
wahhh!!!!! i wanna wait till spring if its anything like that
i got my winters now. and they dont let me break. crap tires!!
:D :D :D :D (this is where i walk away from this) haha
wait u have a civic? lolz, thats cool i think ur gonna win its very hard for me to mod mine. i think ur girl ex/si is a very good year to mod and the best looking. still debating if i wanna get laughing gas or getting a k20 swap!!
aiyah! it doesnt matter who wins. i think its gonna be a close match if u ask me.

unless u do some serious stuff to the civic it ain't gonna be fun, not trying to sound cocky but mines a 93 vx hatch, with a b18c1 with type r internals, dc sport 4 into 1 cearmic header, aem cai, and apexi v-afc.
the corolla only has an intake and exhaust the rest are suspension mods and an lsd.
The civc is probably gonna be sold by this summer though.

I don't go around and pick fights with people i know/don't know. We all have our opinions, but lets keep it friendly, no need to get hostile and go telling who's car is better than whos. I hope that booohahaha don't get all worked up and spread bad news about our celi board. It's always nice to get advice from other car owners too, b/c we could learn a few new tricks about our ride in the process, so lets stop the bad press and keep the topic about cars and not about who verus who.:D I would still like to have a friendly race with booohahaha and my g/f civic. No red slips or anything, just a quick run and then maybe some coffee after.:D :D :D

First of all, I NEVER flamed you, booohahaha, for having a Civic, I am not the narrowminded person you so label me as. Our Celica group often meets up with Civics, Eclipses, and MR2's cause we appreciate all car enthusiasts and my all girl car club is not just Celicas either.

Secondly, you were challanging the fact that a GT auto could beat a Civic auto, and I was merely saying that I have done it and it is possible. I didn't act like I was "all proud of it" as you say, it's not like I go around trying to race Mustangs and GSR's. I know the limits of my car and that it's not very fast. I was answering SKYLINERY2K's original question of whether he can beat his friend's Civic auto or not. Furthermore, I also never said anything about your VR6 :rolleyes:

Thirdly, that's cool if you were giving us some advice for a sure win, but you're not so innocent with your sarcastic little remarks. And half your typing doesn't even make sense, I can't even tell if you're commenting to me or selika2000 or whoever with your running-forever-sentences and non-sequiturs. The thing is you can dish it out but you can't take it, and then you think everyone's a hater.

Just trying to clear some things up... :D

I agree. I saw this conversation as you challenging the fact that a GT auto could beat an auto Civic. I guess I was just being a smart ass in trying to say that it is possible and probably also that I'm not to fond of hondas, but whatever floats your boat cause I do appricate all car enthusatics.

I also agree with S.Menchavez on how you make no sense. Your run on sentences colid with new sentences, and it's hard to put together on what your point is, half the time. Slow down, take a breathe and reread what you write when you are about to post something, so that your argument is actually accurate and readable.

booohahaha
01-11-2002, 06:43 PM
well it is true that most people hate on other cars. i can say i have had hate for other cars but whats the whole point to it?? u have 4 wheels and put gas in it. ur full of crap, telling i cant take it. if i cant take it then explain to me why do i keep coming back to this board. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: u know what. i only made a sarcastic remark towards u cuz u for one sound conceited!!!! c'mon u sound like u go out looking for races, of course u cant take on gsr's, mr2, and so on!. i know that civic's come in CX and DX which have like 98HP and 112HP. of course ur gonna win!!! hello, civic and celica are not in the same category. but their the best thing out there for most people. who can afford 25,ooo and plus brand new cars. im not saying im one of them. tell me this? can u swap ur engine out without living on instant noodles for the rest of the year? no i didnt think so.
come on read ur post. u didnt even answer his question, skyline wanted advice and wat kind OF MOD HE SHOULD DO. not people blabbing bout yea ur lighter and u got more HP and torque. thats squat when its auto. :eek: :eek: :eek: besides did u just realise that this is the internet. and i know my post didnt make really a good sense but it got the point down good. it happens when u this board kinda resets so many times.

What did I ever say to sound conceited? Nothing. And who's to say I'M the one looking for races? They are the ones who rev on me because of the way my car looks, and I usually don't race anyone, but I have raced some auto Civics and beat them, that's all.

You have just contradicted yourself. If The Celica is gonna win anyway, why would you need to give SKYLINERY2K any advice on mods in the first place? That's why me and everyone else told SKYLINERY2K just to race him anyway and he should win.

Without reading any other replies...

You should beat the snot out of that civic. I have a gt auto and have not lost against any civic yet, besides a few Si's and a few turboed and supercharged civics, but rarely will i come across one. I did however beat one turbo civic, but barely...
