Type S? Mods?

If its a type S the you should beat him. If its a P then it maybe close. How far are you racine? 1/4 mile?

Bro... I dont know what car you got..weather its a TYPE S or not. I hope you kick his ass.. cuz I hate when people talk smack like that! Ur car is a sedan.. what he think his civic is some sports coupe?? But this link should help you:

i used to own a 99si, it was fast but the tl will take it. just dont let him get a BIG jump on you. once you really get moving you will really pull from him

I heard SI is slower than both of sedan and type-s.
SI is only civic after all...

Diddo.....Si's are slow.....c'mon....0-60 in 7.2 sec? I don't even think it'll accomplish that much. I have yet to see an si run better than a 16.0 quarter mile at the track WITH intake/header/exhaust. Your TL-P bone stock should run mid 15's(best) to high 15's(worst).

i ran 15.5s with my si but it wasnt consistant, you had to drive it like you stole it to get those. and the launch was the hardest. the tl-p will beat it i have raced afew since i bought my tl, and a tl-s will def beat it

k, its a 99TLP plus 1 tires (it helps on the launches), we are gonna do it this weekend. when does vtec kick in?

fsttyms1

4500-4700

gave his a$$ some licks, we first went to the track, then he gives me sum BS that its not go striaght line then one the way home we went the back road way he was go on the turns either, and on the highway he almost had me(i forgot to shift out of third) he had me 2 115 and then when i was at 135 he was a small spec in the rearveiw mirror.

here is the funny part, he wants to by a RSx or TL-S

he is looking for more mods now. i feel so sry 4 him. but i won

I hope you don't run into my son.

the vtec in the 99 kicks in in a different rpm than the 00+
My vafc sense the vafc signal from 3500, so i guess in a 99 model vtecs kicks in in 3500.
I really want to confirm this tho, any other member have vafc in their 99?

First of all, you will take from the line regardless of whether you have a TL-P or a TL-S. Second, you will get smaller and smaller to him once you get up to 70. That isn't even a race. Like fsttyms1 said, you are going to pull on him. Everyone here kept telling me I was going to miss my ricer civic when I got my TLS. Well I do, but I've raced some of the old gang and the Si (not surprisingly) was no kind of match. It wasn't worth my gas. So no worries. Oh, never mind, I see you beat him anyway, great way to humble him!

NEVER lost to a civic yet...(in my Type-S)

but then again, that ain't something to be too proud about.
