I can't believe people are dumb enough to think this is fake. The CRX Si only weighs 1890 lbs from the factory. Gut the interior, lose the A/C, add some CF and it's easily down to 1500lbs. Throw a B18C5 or K20 in it, turbo it and you're looking at 350-400whp and 1700lbs. Now compare that to the Lambo which is at about 500whp and 3638. 100 HP =/= 1900 lbs.
CDogbert
07-18-2008, 02:20 PM
Exactly, and I think because most people don't grasp the concept of power/weight. So, incoming science!
A 2001 Murcielago weighs 3638 lbs, and it produces 572hp. Divide the weight by the power, and you find that each Italian horse is burdened with 6.36 lbs. Obviously, the lighter the horse, the more efficiently it can prance around (and be expensive and make a lot of noise and such).
Following Carbon's numbers, the old CRX Si weighs 1500 lbs after you take out all the useless, heavy bits (I've seen even lower than that, but we won't go there). In order to match the efficiency of the Lambo (6.36 lbs/hp), it would only need to stuff 235.84 mythical Japanese dragons under it's rusty skin, which you can get from even mildly tinkering with a K20A.
Doesn't make sense? How can a 235hp festival of rust and frugality trounce a 572hp precision instrument of speed? Well, consider this: the Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa will go from 0-60 in about 2.5 seconds. It has only about 175 horsepower, but it only weighs about 500 lbs. That means it saddles every horsepower with less than half the weight of the Lambo, and it goes about twice as fast as a result. Make sense now?

Oh, I agree. You could probably work up a Yugo to beat a Ferrari if you modify the hell out of it. Well...maybe not a Yugo. :P But you get my point. Once you modify a car enough, it's not really accurate to call it by it's original model name. Kinda like in NASCAR (which I never watch). The only think that makes that race car a Ford Tarus is the slight resemblence on the sheet metal.

Yep, you caught me; all I think about is speed in a car in a thread about the speed of a lightweight, modified Honda CRX vs. a Murcielago. If this were a thread about the panty drop factor of a CRX vs. Murcielago, I would be steering a bit more toward the Lambo (if participating at all, as it would be the dumbest thread on here). Maybe if you removed your head from Lamborghini's ___ long enough, you would see that we weren't even debating anything but power/weight ratio's and the legitimacy of the OP video.

Way to show off your ability to state the obvious, bright eyes. We know that we're comparing a car that's 1500 lbs of sheet metal and boost; you are the one that seems to have trouble grasping the concept. And of course if you gave the Lamborghini a supercharger, it would win. If you gave my car fourteen turbochargers, it would walk all over both of them. I fail to see what point you're trying to make.
I see you took my advice about pulling your head out of Lamborghini's ___. Good job putting the LP640 in the same league as the Enzo or Veyron. Please, go up to anyone that owns either the Enzo or the Veyron, and see if they want to race you in your stupid LP640; they will straight up laugh at you. :loser:

Now look at the bold number. That magic number is easily obtainable on an N/A 4-Cyl. Hell, Peugeot has a 280hp semi-production 2.0L 4 cylinder. So with that said, we can consider this race N/A vs N/A.
Now, if you think it cost $200,000 to turn a $6,000 CRX into a 1500lb, 240whp vehicle, you are a moron.
And I'm sorry, but if you need to go out and buy a Lambo just to get laid, you suck at life.

A honda is a honda and A Toyota supra is a Toyota supra A Smart car is a Smart car But at the end of the day My car beat yours. It's not about the girls it's about the street cred. Girls you can get anywhere. Street cred is earned. Guys with super cars dont like to push their cars to the limit because they cost to much to maintain & insurance is too high. Mean while the guy with the sleeper doesn't have to pay that much money to punk a super car. Back in the day that was impossible. It just goes to show that technology is catching up to these super cars which makes me think that these super cars have been over hyped and over priced. In my opinon, a super car should never have to be up graded in order to beat a cheap or mid priced japanese import. I mean come on you pay all this $$$ so you can be king of the hill and not be threatened by a 4 banger. What is that ? And yeah, super cars can get you girls but nothing is more humiliating then having your supercar get beat by a japanese import with your girl next to you thinking that you where untouchable on the street and look at you now. And for the people that say "well if you were to upgrade the super car to see what would happen?" I say how much did that upgrade cost you ?Ahh... the price of my sleeper ? So don't hate the sleeper hate the supercar maker for making you pay all that $$ just to get beat by a sleeper. Next time tell them to make a better car like one that actually races at the Le Mans 24-Hours. If I remeber correctly the GT1 v8 Corvette C6.R is winning that battle. Where are all those super cars? bugatti veyron, ferrari enzo, lamborghini lp640 are nowere to be found. Oh, my bad, the the 12 Cylinder ferrari F430 GTs are in GT2 class but that class is slower then GT1.

Oh come on now, you can't say that the Veyron/Enzo/LP640 should be running with the C6.R; they're completely different species of cars. And even moreso, the ALMS isn't the only series in the world. The MC12 GT1 (the FXX's sibling-ish thing) won a 2005 FIA GT cup. The Veyron is strictly a road car that only exists to be a yardstick for road cars. The LP640... eh, yeah, not very successful in motorsports.

Effing idiots that don't understand power/weight. You guys need to go out more if you think this is fake. There are plenty of b18's out there capable of outdoing the Murcielago. Built and boosted ones can run upwards of 500 hp, and keep in mind the car weighs about half as much as the lambo. Also, unless you are illiterate, it said the Porsche has 700 hp, that's over a 100 more than the Lambo, plus its a Rear wheel drive platform so it loses less power to the wheels because of that.
