Newbie Question

[MAXIMUS750]

If i purchased a stock auto 94 r33 gtst with about 100,000km on da dial and went up against a manual 93 honda integra vtir with a full 3'' exhaust system, air filter, extractors with 180,000km on da dial. i should win right coz i have turbo. dis might sound like a stupid questions but im still new to cars comin from bikes. how would i fare up. would i still rip him or, just, or lose. Newbie needing help.

the line > all thx

[hippy]

well u "should" but i wouldnt' think an auto skyline is that great if i were u ... i got one myself ... the loss in power with the auto is too much i think ... but what can u do?? anyways hit the brakes and press the acc and rev it to about 3k just before u let go so u launch at 3k ... anymore and it might be a bit dangerous for the auto trans ... anyways u should beat him .. i doubt u will kill him

you'll blow him away

the only n/a that i've seen that it is remotely comparable to even coming near keeping up with my stock 1997 gtst manual is a honda prelude type r, and even that got a fair caning

[paulr33]

and that was the 2000 model, or maybe it was the civic? not sure, something type r

Prelude dont come in type r's dude, Might of been a Integra type R.

I used to own a Prelude Vti-r.. the 2.2ltr Vtec goes pretty hard.

Isnt a full 3' exhaust to big for a N/A 1.8 or 2.2 ??

and skyline will win

[paulr33]

yeah sorry was an Integra type R.

it got caned, but did pretty good job of keeping up

VTEC engines require larger then normal exhaust systems. The H22A redlines about about 7600 from memory and has a lot of exhaust gas that needs removing. If he has extractors, there will be no loss of backpressure.

My trueno for example runs 272 degree cams and has a full 2.5 system which allows it to breath at 9500rpm

A lightly modified Vti-R prelude will run 15.2 easily. 100kw's at the wheels with the H22A is easily acquired.

I think it would be close, turbo or no turbo, the H22A has balls of torque.

sorry dude but thats a pretty silly question....
