I agree the Maxima pulls very hard in third gear compared to other cars.

The max does pull well in third, but i've noticed that its about the same pull as in the 240sx. when I race my gf, I usually take her off the line very easily by at least four car lenghts, but once we're both in third, i don't pull on her anymore.

Well newbie could have a better thread subject. Why do you guys refer to every car as rice especially in this case when the car is stock. If the owner of the RSX has some ricey mods then he could have called it ricey, but in this case it was stock. so is his max ricey too?

I agree not every car is ricey. They probably referred to it as rice because those type of cars when modified turn out to be rice. It's just that you didn't even give your thoughts on the outcome of the race, you just posted that we are retarded.

Well I wasn't referring to you. I was referring to the two post that called the rsx ricey...Just sounds retarded when you refer to call as ricey when it's still stock. sounds more like a racial term to me..japanese = rice? japanese = maxima too...I just had to vent..

Max would smoke the RiceSX. Even the faster(but still slow)type-s does 0-60 in 7.6 sec.
Heh...

Not to be outright flamingly blunt, but...they do a little better than 7.6. 90-91 Integras could do 7.6.

I think an RSX-S would put up a fight, but the maxi would walk on the normal RSX if they were both sticks.

I love rice , with soy sauce.

An American slang term for imports from japan. Rice burners, why? Because. Except maximas , right? No, we are rice burners too, but we burn quarts of rice, while others can only handle pints.

RSX type S does 0-60 in 6.1 It was in motortrend or something of that sort. That's a tad faster than a 4th gen Max

Hmmm... Motor Trend tested the RSX Type S 6M in a not-so-slow 6.1 Seconds 0-60. That compares well with the reading they got for the 2000 Max SE 5M 6.7 Seconds 0-60.

The real question is how will it do with 40 less horsepower and drivers of varying skill levels?

I believe he said its NOT a type S. The base model RSX will get absolutely raped by a 5 speed maxima. The performance of the RSX-S seems to be all over the map, one magazine tested it at like 14.8 1/4 mile, and i've also seen 15.2, 15.3, and 15.6. So that tells me that even though the car is capable of running a 14.8, it has to have the hand of God pushing it. The RSX Type S's that I've seen at the track were running mid 15.2s-15.5s. I wouldn't be too worried about 99% of them on the road.

All I can say is bye bye to the plain old RSX.. its a fugly little piece of crap. Beefed up civic that costs an extra $4000. Har.. acura and honda has been making a lot of ugly crap lately.

Car tests

Well I'm sure that it has something to do with who is running the report and who is financing the report... Some reporting companies do have financial interests in certain auto companies. I won't say how I know this, but we'll just say that I do. So if you have a huge interest Email me and I'll tell you where to look to find this information.
So if R&T (hypothetically) has a financial interest in Honda of N.A. then in a road test they may favor certain cars so they look sweeter to the public. Ever wonder why some Auto companies can get all the press in certain magazines? So when they do the performance tests, things that are Atypical may have influence... fuel type, tire pressure...who knows maybe even car set-up.

I know someone will want to argue this with me, so before you post just think... It's the media, and are you willing to believe everything you read thats written?? Please say it isn't so...
