GTS vs RSX

[static]

Chaos was trying to hide this in another topic.. so I will post it here... Good race Rich.. we shall meet again.

Not a lot of details.. no point in getting into it. He had one passenger, and I had none.. I think we both let off about 90-100. I believe he was about a half a car behind me...

I have Intake/Exhaust, he has an Intake.

Here's his post:

But I'm not feeling salty at all. It's just all fun and games:D

:D

[Chaos007]

Oh there will be a rematch alright. This time i'll be driving solo:D

[yakkosmurf]

Considering the added weight of an additional passenger, I wouldn't call this a spanking.

[t2000gts]

ok. let's call it a towel-whip across the ass. :D

DIE ACURA!!$@$@(%

i agree HondaPower.. by the way u got pics of ur cars.. also are u rsx owners arguing on which intake is better? aem or injen? just like how it was over here .. and which one does make more hp.. but from the dynos i saw on import tuner.. that borla exhaust they did wit injen made like 180 at the wheels :shocked

[t2000gts]

haha i'm just kiddin around. i'm usually not one to say things like that.

DIE MITSUBISHI.

[z12f09]

its not hate, its more like unfriendly, hatefilled competition..oh wait strike the hatefilled part...

[yakkosmurf]

Why do some of you all feel such a need to be competitive?

[Camry2000]

I guess a win is a win. It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. :D

So what has the SC done for you 1/4 mile time?

A very small penis, I guess. Not that I'd know. And, not that there is anything wrong with that...

[Kit99bar]

I think his best is a 15.1 or so

Kitbar is correct. My best run was 15.1@89. My only mod is SC on my auto 2000 Camry XLE and I dropped the front tires to 25PSI. The auto really slows it down and being a heavy fully loaded XLE with all the toys does not help either. ... "Mao"

Just curious, you're 19 and have a 02 RSX and a 99 NSX, what do you do for a living?

Yeah...but it's not how you stand by your car, it's how you drive your car.

Thanks for the info. I can see how the weight and tranny would slow it down. Do you think the SC was worth the cost?

I think it is definitely worth it even at the stock 4PSI. I paid abot $3,100 for the parts and labor and my warranty is still in tact. I got raped on the install $600, when most people paid $400. Anyway I was in a hurry. :) A stock auto Camry dynos at about 150FWHP, I dynoed at 190FWHP. Also the extra torque makes a huge difference, especially on a 3,100lb Camry XLE.

Some people say why SC a slow arse auto Camry? I say that is exactly why I SC it. ... Soon I will have a 6PSI pulley. Muhahahahahahahaha ... "Mao"

[Kit99bar]

my next car is goign to have torque. :)

Yea, i'm gonna take some pics of my cars with my digital camra, but right now they are dirty as hell! No worries, i will wash it this week and post the picks.

About the rsx intake: Several dynos show that injen sri is by far the best for the rsx. The aem cai is also good, but it is not worth the hassel. You have to rip apart the whole front bumper to install it, and the gains still aren't as good as the injen.

You can check jackson racing's web sight, they do in fact make turbos.

Second, sorry for the coild/springs confusion. I just in fact have the coils, but mugen named it weird for the nsx, there are 2 names gor the same product model. I know springs and coils are the same thing, i was trying to make it simpler, but i guess i just made it more complicated. Anyways, if u still dont believe me i will be posting pics later this week hopefully.

Absolutely nothing.

No j/k! My friend and I produce and maintain webpages for small companies. I also do voulenteer research at mt. sinai hospital in the department of genetics. I am a full time student at yourk u in the department of pure and applied science.

I did pay for my rsx, but not the nsx. My older cousin co-owns an exotic car rental place in california. The cars there are not kept over 3 years, so he keeps one of them in Toronto (the nsx) for when he visits. The fact of the matter is, he visits like once a year, so i basically have it all the time. He told me i could use it whenever i want, so i do. He also said i could mod it all i want (i payed for the mods).

And btw, i just turned 20 on jan 4!
