Well there is one kinda person who lies about racing people and winning....n thats ricer n I am far from that... Its pointless to argue about who won this and that when I dont have a video.. So i wont waste time arguing. But, it is true... But believe what you want, Im gonna just learn to hold my tongue on here about what i race and win againt unless I have a video handy.. But, being as my camcorder got stolen I'll just shut up... But, I agree they probably cant drive.. I have a friend with a RSX that can actually drive, so I will race him try n get it on tape and show it.. And, we will see how that one comes out...

And, Im sure I will lose to a type-s witha good driver. And, my friends rsx is a 05 so i already know he's gonna win since he has the high profile cams than other year model rsx 's...

my friend wanted to race an rsx-s. but all the stickers on the side intimidated the rsx driver and he backed off. yeahhhhh.























(that was a complte utter lie. in no way has that happened, is that happening right now, nor will ever happen on any planet, in any universe, or at any time. if someone ever did that, they should shove a stick up their @$$ and sing the Star Spangled Banner in the voice of the guy that sings "Old Man River")

See this is what I dont get.. guys come on here and talk poop that the "upgraded" version of the car is faster then.. what, our base model tc? Id put my s/c up against a RSX-S ANY DAY. pound for pound, it makes more tq, shorter gears, and will rip through them quicker - all the power is on tap right away, I dont have to wait till 5500 RPMS to get some guts... I just got my LSD (not installed yet..) and as soon as thats in, and I dont have wheelspin all the way through 3rd gear I should go from spanking a type-s, to a slaughter of a type-s.. I know you guys think the tC is a quick car, but seriously put some boost in it and its a whole new car. I remeber my tC before I got charged, and I thought it was cool that I could hit it in first, and it would have decent wheel spin into second. well with the s/c you can hit it in second, at any RPM and just start to shred some tires (and I have upgraded 18" proxies) and still spin tires into 3rd..

its either the tC vs the regular RSX or the S/C tC vs. the RSX-S is the obvious match up...

Either way, honda SI or RSX-S, doesnt stand a chance against S/C tC. (wait, but then the fan boys says well your not N/A anymore...) so what, they get the bigger engine, and because it stays N/A it falls in their favor?

Honda builds great products BTW, I am NOT knocking them. I own one of the baddest honda's ever built (ah.. its not a car..) ... and that new accord is sick!

yes the tc has a bigger engine but the redline is at a max of 7 honda engines have great valve trains that is what they are known for high rpms and no or little torgue.

the s/c tc would be a great match between the rsx-s and the civic si 2000-2006/07.

but i can tell you from 1st hand expience that the tc in stock trim w/ exhaust and cai, againt a civic si 00 to 07 with little mods ( exhaust/cai) is a close race but the honda redline and gearing is just to much for the tc.

the tc has a very close ration tranny like the sub wrx/sti, the honda engine b series and k series have a longer ratio bc of the redline.

can someone please find me avid of a tc beating a rsx in stock trim, im way to drunk to find one.

rsx ____ talkers welcome lol

threads like this make me happy that i focus on ice more than power.. lol..

anyway i think both are great machines and i give it up to honda for squeezing as many hp as they did out of that engine.
