I Wasted an Integra

Okay, I wasted an Acura Integra this evening. Wasn't much of a challenge. His loud performance exhaust made a lot of noise, but that's about it. I didn't have to try too hard. Heck, I was going 90mph and had to hit the brakes for him to catch up. Kind of boring. What's the horsepower of those things? Can't be too much.

I get revved on by ricers quite often in my heavy land whale TSX, but yet I still manage to blow them away most of the time. The riced out Civics and Integras are often no match for me. Though I hate street racing, I just like flooring my car.

INTEGRA TYPE R
Compression = 10.6:1
Horses = 195 @ 8,000
Torque = 130 @ 7,500
Weight = 2,639lbs
0-60 = 6.53sec

TSX
Compression = 10.5:1
Horses = 200 @ 6,800
Torque = 166 @ 4,500
Weight = 3,230lbs
0-60 = 6.60sec

I really doubt there'd be any smokin' going on. I think it would be close, but at least not as pathetic as that guy last night.

0-60=6.60sec?????????????? This statement must have required smoking something!
I hate to tell you, but an ITR would spank a TSX no problem... Even if the guy/gal missed a gear or two.

Actually, I think it was going downhill. Hey, if it's on the internet, it has to be true! The majority of the other web sites come up saying 0-60 in the low 7's...It's all rounding anyhow.

I'm still not convinced it would be a blow-out. Any real life examples out there???

Oh, and by the way, I think the one I smoked was an LS, as all the badges were removed and you'd have to think if it was anything special they'd want to keep their badges to show off...

Doesn't matter, I'll still keep my TSX.

Sorry man, but ITR would smoke a TSX hands down. To keep it short and simple, the R is a lot lighter, quicker, gears are shorter so it pulls harder. Oh and probably a lot of stunnas cant launch for shit either!

Be happy you beat an LS. I beat an LS too in my mom's 99 GS300 auto too a few yrs ago!

No spank...beat. My roomate owns a 01 Type R and he does not spank me. At 60MPH I am right at the back of his door, at 90MPH i am about a foot off his back bumper. Once we hit 100 I start pulling some of it back. And this was before I switched to the lighter wheels.

Also to add to the kills while im here.

Mitsu Eclipse V6, beat him by 1 1/2 car length

RSX from 70MPH to 130, Wasnt even close...he had a big ol fart can so you could hear him get on the gas even though he really wasnt going anywhere. When I hit 130 he was 5 to 6 car lengths back.

Civic after rice out civic.....get killed every single time.

Del Slow

thats about it for now

I also agree smoked may be too harsh a word. The type-r will no doubt beat a tsx, but they are both not fast cars.

Yup.
Given the drivers have equal exp, both engines stock, the ITR would kill a TSX.

Ive seen it. Both my friend and I race autox, did Thunderhill and Laguna Seca and some SCCA events together when I had my R.
Im not the best driver, but im pretty good.

We raced 2x, my TSX vs. stock ITR except for Azenis and new clutch. I had a good launch too and he killed me. Then we switched. I had an OK launch in his R, and i beat my TSX pretty good. The ITR just pulls a lot harder than the TSX.

Boy that 0-60 number just keeps going lower and lower. Pretty soon we'll see stock TSX's doing the 0-60 in 5.3 and 1/4 mile in 14.5.

Are you talking about drag racing or auto-x? From your last paragraph, it sounded as if you and your friend were racing head to head.

Type-r will be at least 4 car lengths ahead of the TSX through the 1/4. I did some math to figure this out in another thread and here is what I found. ...


Yes for sure, but I'm surprised it was that close. type-r is capable of a 15 flat 1/4 mile..maybe even just under (C&D got a 14.8 I think).

So when I do the math ...

90 mph is close enough to 1/4 mile trap speed so we will go with 1/4 figures.... at which the TSX at LEAST a half second slower than the type-r. Its probably more but I wil give the TSX the benefit of the doubt.

So at 90 mph you are travelling 132 feet per second. ...and if the TSX is a half second slower than the type-r ..that means it will be behind by 66 feet...which is about 4 car lengths behind.
