make fun of honda, but leave gsr alone

i have 2k1 auto and these are not some of the fastest max's if you have ever driven one. a buddy of mine with a gsr went for a run(safe road 3am,pretty empty) from 20-80 and i had him for 1 car length the whole time, we made a total of 2 runs, to make the story short, shouldnt he have beat me or if anything been even? or maybe he couldnt drive? ive heard of gsr's breaking into the 14's, and i know for a fact a 3.0 auto has trouble doing that? my mods are...

PR cold air
cattman headers/pipe set
greddy evo
falken champiro tires,
drop resistor out

my friend has a 2000 gsr 5 speed
apexi NI catback
aem cold air intake.

overall i respect these cars and is probably my favorite car with vtec if i had a choice to choose.

You're kidding me right? The gsr is the most favorite car for ricers. You had him by 1 cars for 2 runs and you still had respect for that car? I don't get it.

But if you race with a NSX or S2k, then it's a different story. Even if my car (I wish) can beat a modded NSX or S2k, I'd still have respect for those cars.

First time I ever went to the track I raced against supercharged gsr. He had a passanger that was recording the race so he was at a lil disadvantage. Well make the long story short. We were dead even untill I hit a third gear and he pulled on my by a lil less than a car. My time was 14.7 he ran a 14.6. I have a 2k2 auto and thought for sure that he would smoke me aspecially that he had a SC.

The only Integra I ever admired was the Type R. It's nearly as quick as the base WRX but, has more topend.

Excluding the Evo and STi, i'd take the ITR over any other sport compact. To bad the DC5 ITR is not being imported stateside.

Just my $.02

A stock Integra GSR has a b18c1 which is 170hp 128lbs of torque it runs the 1/4 mile around 15.2 15.3.

Do the math.

After having driven the S2k (2.0L), it really does have an "exaggerated" Civic Si power curve: nothing down low but upon crossover, the thing RIPS out. (Very turbo-like)

Don't even bother with an ITR....it's overpriced and the motor isn't as good as the GSR. The gsr has better compression for FI.

do the math meaning a 5th gen max should be able to pull on that car with no problems whatsoever.....the GSR is a fast car but its not that fast.
