Hello,
Not looking to do some crazy street racing or anything but wondering if a Manual tC would run me a few times a variable speeds. Stock or Intake/Exhaust fine. Only reason is because I beat a B16(w/mods) a few times and he says he woops on Manual tC's all the time so I just wanted to see what was faster.

If you dont agree or feel negative about this thread, please keep your comments to yourself.

Thanks.

im so lost... what are you asking? what mods do you need to beat a manual tC? Do you have an auto?

 

i would, but i live all the way by LAX...

 

hey ophra, are you lookin for a somewhat modded tc or bone stock cinco speed?

 

ok.ok. I would like to race a 5-speed(manual transmission) tC. I would like this "manual transmission" to be stock or close to it(no more than intake/exhaust).

 

Lets see..the reason why u are beating a "B16" is cuz 1) tC's have torque and 2) mostly reason.........he/she is a ricer and can't race for ish.

Is this B16 car a civic, tegy, or prelude? I'm pretty sure the driver is the main cause of why he/she is losing to a tC. Tires come next and a poorly tuned car is last....maybe engine life.

 

yo that is nuts i haven found any civic to be even keepn up wit me i have a bone stock manual tc i smash on new 06-07 si they cant keep up

 

Come to the Q some time for RaceLegal.com

I only have a Fujita CAI/TRD exhaust. And one of my friends is bone stock. We plan on running more often now, since last Friday was our first time and we had tons of fun!

 

only 2 post.................hmmm................

 

^^^^^^^what that mean only 2 post

 

nothing. it means u only had 2 post at the time.
jus seems a lil fishy that u had 2 post and quik to talk about beating other cars, specially hondas.
but owell.

nevermind.

WELCOME TO SCIONLIFE

 

no i agree special.. what is done to your tC, taktics?.. cuz i have a few friends that would whoop on your tC, bro..

 

all i have is an exhaust and intake so if you wanna run it against me then im cool with that

 

I dont know about beating the new SI's but the numbers will say that Honda's still have the power advantage.

197-hp, 2.0-Liter, DOHC i-VTEC® 4-Cylinder Engine
2.0-liter, dual-overhead camshaft K20Z3 engine in the Civic Si produces 197 horsepower at 7800 rpm and 139 lb.-ft. of torque at 6100 rpm.

 

did they know you wanna run? I mean that if someone boned out on me on a bone stock tc, I would be like "what the hell is he doing?"

 

The guy I raced was totally legit and a really cool guy. He has a 00 civic coupe, B16A w/ a short ram intake, Old school JDM DC header(dont debate this unless you know what it is), upgraded piping & a Vtec controller (SAFC I). Not to mention he also did the 5 lug swap with the Type R w/ Falken Azenis ST's and was on springs. We did about 12 rounds and I won 10. We both got out afterwards (being I used to own a ITR) we talked Honda. Guy new his stuff and said he dusted all his friends tC's. He gave me a ride, he did miss a shift or two at times but his car should have done the trick atleast a few times out of the 12(which probably counts for the 2 he did win).

 

Kirby knows how to read from the manufacter's book, JK.

 

B16's are known to have very low torque. I know, my cousin has one, SI. If it was a B18, like that from a tegy gsr or type-r, then it would be a different story. So ya, tC did smoke this civic and it was all due to torque.

tC=1
civic=0

 

ill race you, im bone stock. its an 07 tho, but it dosent matter rite?

im in diamond bar/brea/pomona/walnut.. wherever you want to meet, but it would have to be somewhere seclududed.

also, you better watch out, ive been workin on my launches haha.


also, referring to the new civic Si, a tC can take it from the getgo up to about 40-50mph, after that they start to pull on us and then kick the shiot out of us, anyone who disagrees, post a vid and thats the only way i will believe, even then i will still question the integrity of it.

either way, if you want to race, let me know.

 

I don't approve of street racing, but this is a nice challenge. SL holds no responsibility on this, alright. Cool.

ya, Si 06-07 can fly by after that speed........hence V-tec baby, lol. Vtt-i is only good for a couple of rpms. V-tec, however, lasts a long time.
