It's still an RSX...
I think the cars are ugly.
Especially the gay red dash lights, not easy on the eyes at night...
That video would have been worth the time of clicking on it, if it was only 14 seconds.
All the different angles and the shifting shots sucked...

theres alot of other things that have to do with the quickness of a car. Gearing, drivetrain loss, traction, power to weight and the biggest thing is the driver

on that video, looks like the X got the first jump. i was assuming he's a better driver than the S?

2006 rsx type S 201 HP 2840lbs
2002 cl type S 260 HP 3510lbs
lets see here 2840/201 = 14.12 lb/hp for the rsx for the cl type s it would be 13.5 (auto) or 13.2 (2003 manual)
CL would be faster just based upon HP to weight ratio not even to mention the flat as mississippi torque curve that the CL type S has

And the power that matters is what the car puts out at the wheels. the auto tranny on the CL-S sucks at transfering power. most auto cl-s put down around 200 whp and i think the 6mt is around 210 whp. most stock 05+ RSX-Ss put out 175 whp.
So rsx at 16.2 lbs/1 whp and auto CL-S is 17.55lbs/whp
The CL does have a good amount more torque than the RSX. no one ever said a stock rsx-s will beat a cl-s

and it doesnt even matter since the car loses almost 60 hp through the drive train
and for the video i said the 02-04 rsx-s would lose.
Good job on yor post

Most RSX-S owners can't drive their 6spd so the advantage goes to the auto CL-S. The ones that can drive well can put up a good fight stock for stock against the CL-S. Plus RSX-S w/ minor mods boost their top end tremendously. My cousins RSX-S has I/H/E and it moves up top. It would hang with a CL-S 6pd from a roll for sure.

all I said is that your so called "facts" are not backed up by the video.... and 4% isn't didly squat since the RSX suffered 4.3% loss based upon the HP ratings

Hmm thought this was that other video where they are at an airfield...yes looks like the RSX did get the initial jump. I bet this was the case because the RS is easier to drop, having less torque and hp to spin the tires. I have raced an RSXs when I had the 04TL (5AT) and we were very close. Anyh mods for a honda engine with VTEC will boost top end dramatically...

and its funny how you try to make it sound like .3 is a big difference.
also a cai doesnt do much for a cl. i had a 01 cl-s and had intake on it. also ive raced 6 spd cls with I/H/E it would be a close race for an 05+ rsx-s that had the same mods.
Believe what u want ive had an auto cl-s, driven a 6 spd cl-s and raced them

you stated
So rsx at 16.2 lbs/1 whp and auto CL-S is 17.55lbs/whp
obviously you are mistaken.
Thanks for playing, good bye
