I had some fun with my co-worker's 2002 Honda Accord EX (3.0 v6 200 hp 195 ft lbs torque automatic)

We went from a roll and I was in 2nd and murdered him.

He called me out for being in 2nd so next time we rolled with me 4th gear and it was close for a while but I pulled away after 55 mph.



he was a good sport about losing

I don't know what kind of B18 engine my friend is getting for his 95 honda civic. But if I race him, saying we shift perfectly, from a stop. Is he going to beat me?

A B18 in a 95 civic. Thats a good one. But I think hes gonna win. A b18 is a GSR motor (i think) and being in a lighter car than a GSR yea you gonna have some issues. But its a honda you will get him from a jump if you have a good launch

I raced a 98 Accord, pulled up next to me thinking he was the ish, turned up his music drowning out my slow jamz, the light turned green and I had the jump at the light and once i shifted into second, he was feeling like Kobe when Shaq asked how his *SS tasted.

Yeah, my buddy has an EG Civic with a B18C1 swap w/ exhaust. 180hp in a car that weighs around 2,000 lbs. You will get the jump, but once vtec kicks in it's over.

I know a few guys with B18C/K20/K24 swaps in their civics. Man they're fast.. cuz they're light as crap. Same HP as me (220'ish) but about a thousand pounds lighter!

Your post reminded me of this:





EDIT: Oh, and I do have a story to contribute. I had a tC a couple years back (plan on buying another in the coming weeks; hence why I am on this site) and once while I was trying to merge on a two-lane road each way as it became a single lane in each direction, 2 girls in a G6 coupe refused to let me in the lane after leaving a red light (I'm sure we've all seen the type). At first they just stayed at my side, blocking my movement, but at about 20mph, I heard the G6 try to accelerate faster. So, I responded by going WOT and by the time I shifted into third I had bought enough space ahead of them to merge; leaving the female driver of said G6 irritated enough to tailgate me for several miles.

Got a new Kill.

Civic hatchback (89 model), with a Jackson Racing Supercharger on it @ 7 PSI. Guy said it wasn't tuned. Neither am I, but I pulled him really good.

Sad thing is, Nick (who is back right now from Iraq) pulled on him too, and his tC is N/A'ed with I/H/E, I think clutch/flywheel too. Nick beat the S/C'ed Civic by a car, probably would have been more if they would have keep going to top speeds.

I wished LOL. Trust me, if I was tuned, I would be on 1.0 Bar instead of 0.6 (and a half) Bar. WHEN I do get tuned though, it's going on .8 - 1.0 Bar and 110 oct. So, I should be in that 400whp ball park. I have a 6 gallon gas can sitting in my garage with only about a swallow worth of 110 oct. in it. I went to drop $20 bucks on 110, started pumping, and the damn tank stopped at like $1.30 cent. Went back in the store and the clerk said they must be out...and that a truck should be coming later that day. I was pissed, but oh well. I need a new radiator, so I might go ahead and get the Mishimoto unit, and wait till later to tune it on .8 - 1.0 Bar.

Beat my co-worker's 5 speed Dodge Stratus R/T 3.0 with intake/catback exhaust by 1 length from a dead stop . He was surprised but the jump I got on him from the start, I held the entire time. We raced 2 times and same thing 2 times in a row

Chipped GTIs are monsters. Nice try though.

well lets see one win and one loss

first up the loss

well... I was out cruising my friend in the passenger seat and this copper colled Tiburon comes blowing past me. Naturally I downshift and then go catch up to him. It obviously has exhaust and it sounded decent. It was the V6 btw. I didnt think much of it because ive pulled on the V6's before...well not this one, I pulled beside him and asked what he had done and he said "just intake and exhaust" well naturally thats what everyone says so we did a 40 roll and i held even at first but by the time i was shifting into 4th he was 2 car lengths ahead, and then he decided to dip and got on the interstate...i'm going hunting for him with our turbo miata next time. By the way he ran there is no way it was just intake and exhaust so im eager to find out what hes got done.

and as for the win...

this was kind of a "me picking on slow cars" type thing. there was this civic EX with exhaust and intake and he claimed he had a b18 v-tec head...i dunno whether or not a B18 head will fit on the B16 but whatever he said he had it. Long story short 2nd gear pull and by the time i was shifting into 3rd i was 1 and a half lengths ahead...I missed 3rd but it didnt matter cause he let off anyways since i was ahead

Ok so I smoked one of my friends in her 07 TC. We just picked up her car from the dealership after getting one of her free oil changes. We pulled up to a light and no one was around. I being silly pulled up next to her and rev'd my engine, she did the same in kind. I rolled my window down and asked if she really wanted to do it. She acknowledged that her car was stock and I had a slight modification to mine but still wanted to. Needless to say the light turned green and I dropped the clutch and floored it. after peeling out for a good 15 feet I launched ahead of here and by the time we cleared the intersection I was a car length ahead of her.

My cars mods ( Flint Mica) :
Crank Pulley
Strut tower bar

Her car mods( Nautical Blue):
Stock

Goes to show you.... Flint Mica > Nautical Blue. If you wanna win its all about Flint Mica.
