I like both honda and dsms i seen some nasty hondas around here and some nasty evos. but last week i seen some guy named killer b with a integra beat this evo with sponsers on 28 psi running 12's who know what he was on and he didnt have a turbo( the integra). i think hes on a fully build gsr with spray that was a good race.

What about a 240hp N/A Honda S2000?
Nope, still no sweat

ORIGINAL: 97GSpower
Actually I have to take up for Honda on this one. Honda makes the best power for the size engines they make. They have a 1.6L with 185hp...I've never seen any other car company with numbers like that with a small engine. The prelude engine comes with a h22 which is a 2.2L and the Type S one comes with 220hp and no, it does not have a turbo. I'd like the see a stock GST race a semi built N/A prelude or a CRX with a b16 swap that's fairly built. It would be tough for the eclipse. I know lots of ppl with Honda's and they aren't slow if you do **** to them. Think about it. They also seem to have the most technology into their cars from what I can see. They last forever as well. I dunno. Are all of you that conceited? You all have to talk **** about other car companies to feel better about your own car?
What about a 2.0l 400hp Evo FQ400?

ORIGINAL: honda troll
oh, an S2000 can't run 13's stock? sure it can't:
http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=343031
oh and there's timeslips AND video proof in there.
Again, how do we know it's bone stock? Because he says so? Also, I'm sure there might be a factory freak out there that can eek a 13 out somewhere, but lets be honest here we all know 99.9999999999999999% of stock s2k's do not.


ORIGINAL: honda troll
secondly, again, the RX7 isn't a 1.3 liter if you're comparing it to a 4-stroke engine. it's a 2.6 liter. and in case you continue to need proof:

I concur with the above.

ORIGINAL: honda troll
As for your personal tastes in cars, so be it. Though I could just as easily go "well EVO's sound like ***. have fun with your 3000rpm boost while I hit 13's naturally aspirated and stomp your car on a road course or auto-x on my gas sipping honda". But that's a pointless argument, since everyone has their own tastes.


here's some national championship A-stock results from 2005. You have to go to 19th place to even find the first EVO. meanwhile 11 S2000's finish ahead of the 19th place EVO.

You can throw in as many SCCA stats as you like, stock for stock, the EVO will out and out destroy any stock S2K on any given circuit or road course. I'm not talking about dodging and chasing cones in a local Wal-Mart parking lot, I mean a real road course. I have tons of stats as well, but anyone can search them up on google as easily as I if they're interested.

Sorry meant Mountain Dew pic.

And I am beginning to thoroughly hate Hondas and Acuras. Up here in Minnesota, the only "modified" cars are Civics, Accords, and Integras. And their drivers only put money into the body to make it look fast. I am so tired of them! They don't put any money into the engine for power to back up the looks.

Lol well I guess what I mean is that I am !@#$ing tired of no challenges...I can kick any civic's *** easily. Any integras. Any accords. At least the ones that I have seen. None of them have modded engines.

I have a Civic, and I have it dropped, and with 17's on it, with exhaust, and intake, but I have never raiced it. I know my car is slow, and people try to race me, but I know I'm going to get beat, and kill my engine doing it. My car is show, and I bet most Civic owners are. I think, from personal experience, people that own Civics own them bcuz they are the easiest to fix. Their parts can be found anywhere. As for speed, they are not fast unless you put a shht load of parts into them, but the parts are cheap bcuz they have them everywhere. Wouldn't you like to have a car that you know you can get parts for it at any store, and since they have them at any store, they would be cheap, bcuz of the competition. I've seen intakes at Pep Boys for Hondas, but hardly for Mitsu's, hence my theory. But don't get me wrong, my true dream car is a 01 Galant. Love the style, simple yet nice. I've owend a Sentra, and a Saturn, and stock, they both kick my Civic's ***, but I still like doing mods to it. Not for race, but looks.

I guess that's cool. I mean I was referring to civic owners who try to race me because they are dumb enough to think that a new muffler and intake are enough to make them fast. I'm tired of it. But hey if you do it just for looks because you just want your car to look the way you want it to, then all the more power to you.

Yeah, I know what you mean. Civics try to race me too. They pull up, and rev, and I just look at them. I'm telling you, just bcuz I have it dropped with rims don't mean I want to race. So, I'm just sitting at the light, and it turns green, and they take off all quick. I just take off my regular. And it's funny to me that by the next light, we meet up again. It's like, what was the point of that, just to prove you're faster? Most of the time I think to myself, let's bet this, who's engine is going to last longer, yours, or mine. I'm not racing any other guy who's car is dropped.
