New 1/4 mile time for RSX

Serramonte Acura just tested a RSX Type-S and they got 15.1 secs for 1/4 mile and 145 mph top speed. Checked it out @ http://www.clubrsx.net/cgi-bin/ultim...&f=29&t=000660 .

That's pretty good for showroom new. I figure it'll be faster after it's give a bit of time to break-in.

This means that the Type-S RSX will beat or hang with any CLS. The Type-R when it realeased will kick the ass of any CLS TLS moded or stock.

I expect that the Type-R would be sub 6s car. Imagine a SC (like that Comptech SC S2000) is sneaked somehow under its hood. Yeah can we say 330HP. That beast will kick the ass of any M3!

------------------
Black, Ebony, 3.2 CL Type-S, NAV.
- 3M clear bra, by Stonguard (full front bumper, and side mirrors, and partial hood)
- Acura Spoiler, Moonroof visor
- Splash guards, Winter mats, Trunk liner
- Valentine V1 Radar Locator
- HELMS Service Manual
- PIAA 19169 road lamps
- 03/19/01: Injen Polished CAI
- 04/13/01: 235/40/18 NITTO 555 on 18x7.5, +45 offset, Konig Imagine in Silver with wheels locks

Did you see a picture of the Type R, its in the new Motor Trend I believe....looks awesome- white, 5 spoke white wheels, red calipers (I think), red badging, big spoiler on the back....same theme as the current car obviously.

It really makes the RSX look dramatically better.

Hopefully it will come to the US.

I heard on clubrsx.com that the Type R will come to the U.S. in 2003

What did you expect Itegra's and Civics are already the aftermarket kings! Did you think it would stop when Honda introduced the RSX.
