Why? RSX-s aren't all that quick stock. With bolt ons/tune that's a different story, but not stock.
I can't see the video but if it was a stock 6 speed TL vs a Type S, the TL should walk it with ease. 5AT TL vs RSX-s stock should be a good run.

That is one of our members videos. And I believe the TL beat the RSX-S. However they run similar 1/4 mile times with equal drivers. I'd even give the advantage to the RSX-S with a great driver since I have seen some of the 05+ RSX-S run 14.7's stock. Great drivers race!

Oh hai. lol
That's my old TL. I stayed ahead the whole time and pull him even harder from a 30 roll. .
I pulled a couple I/E 05-06 Type-S's in my old 5AT. I'd always run 'em on the highway from 55mph in 2nd gear and they'd always be loud as hell but I'd be steady pulling away. . Usually about a car or two consistently.

I had an 05 rsx-s and i can surely tell you that car needs a good driver. When i first got the car i couldn't break into the 6's 0-60. launching needs to be perfect. knowing tons of rsx buddies i made from my old forum, most guy can't launch that car. Stock that car lights of the tires really easy. but by the time i had it perfect, i was getting around 6 flat to 60 stock. When i was done with the car i was getting 5 flat to 60, with a hondata reflash, full comptech system with aem v2 and some weight reduction of things you see, spare tire etc. Best i ran with that car a 13.8. I used to walk my buddies stock TL-S all the time. Then we would switch cars and from a dig to 160km we were dead even.
So after my life story i agree, RSX-S vs TL 6spd and even a TL-S is purely a drivers race.
oh also, rsx looked like it was in front at the beginning but i think that hill played a factor and when push came to shove the tl took its troque to the bank and left the rsx.

I disagree. Both cars being stock, a TL or TL-s 6 speed should pull the RSX quite easily. Once modded it becomes a much closer gap. A bolt on/tuned RSX should be about even with a bolt on 6MT TL. Throw a tune on the TL and it should walk the RSX. With that said the RSX is very impressive for a small 2.0 when tuned.

Ill have to agree with sonnick on this one. A drivers race yes, because not everyone knows how to drive stick to its full potential, but with equal drivers a TL 6spd, TL-S auto and TL-S 6MT should pull a stock 05 RSX-S. A base TL on the other hand is slightly slower with equal drivers against a 05 RSX-S

5.0 0-60 yet pulling 13.8s? Hmm....doesn't sound right to me. If you were doing 5 flat 0-60 you should be in the low 13s with that car.
