Good kill.

I don't give a **** how much power the RSX was making, a turbo FWD car on street tires will get its *** kicked by a stalled auto with a tire on a quick jaunt to 70mph. So on that note, GREAT KILL OP!
Sums everything up nicely. Basically there's no need for further discussion.

It's a "big deal" because you know damned well that YOU (and your fellow Import Defense League members on here) would be the FIRST ones to call out/claim "a kill is a kill" to an f body/domestic owner trying to make equivalent excuses as to why he lost to one of your precious imports.
Confusion cured??

Why is EVERYTHING you say an import vs. domestic thing? It gets rather annoying...

Because, sadly, that's the way it is nowadays.

Unlike your gen rice(rs), I can remember a time when it was ONLY
domestic vs. domestic.

BTW; it's no more "annoying" than your incessant import/rice defense,
and someone has to keep you I.D.L.ers in check.

Why is EVERYTHING you say a goddamn excuse or some over the top bullshit generalization?

Tell US about it. You're one of the import brigade members that cause all the bullshit around here.

Who cares how much boost he was running?? There is a lot more to turbocharging than just boost pressure. A 4 cylinder car could run 30PSI and be slow as ****, or a V8 could run 8PSI and make a ton of power. It DOESN'T MATTER how much boost the ricer said he had, not to mention the entire car is a piece of **** anyway, and not designed for boost in the first place. The 6 speeds in those cars are the ones on the national news that Honda refuses to recall, the sychros and blocker rings are fried in a matter of a couple thousand miles on a brand new car. New Si owners are lining up at dealerships for warranty work, and Honda currently has no fix for the problem except to fully rebuild the trans and put the same shitty components back in. Hondas are not meant for performance, they are meant for economy.

I'd wager the Mustang could go mid 13s on the right day, and the S2000 could maybe peg a high 13s pass... it is in no way, shape, or form a high 14s car. Thanks though

Ok, someone is in lala land....



2003 Honda S2000 6.3 14.9 (Manual)


But I guess with your pro driving you could get it into the 13's... Just watch the F&F or something?

If you believe that time, you need some help... even MAGAZINES have run high 13s/low 14s. Hell, I ran a 14.9 with my STOCK INTEGRA. I know what this car is/isn't capable of. You obviously do not.

I agree with irunelevens, the s2k has plenty of potential.

14.9 in a stock Integra...unless it was a GSR or Type R, thats more bullshit to add to the list.

I've never seen anyone but metrosexuals and asians driving S2K's, they are pretty

Best time I've seen for a stock 2.0 S2000 is 13.8 @ 101mph. 98mph is an average trap speed. They aren't made for drag racing.

S2000's have a 2.2l now My friend has one with a turbo and bolt on's and puts around 400whp/280wtq and it's damn fast. I saw a rsx s make +30hp with just an intake? I think it was called a fujita intake?? Anyway's it had Hondata 4 tuning with headers and some other stuff i'm not familier with. It was pretty fast for a 4 banger. I was impressed. I love v8's but these 4 bangers produce some stout numbers for what they are. It just cost 4 times as much $$$ to make them fast.
