91 n/a.(streetported,headerback exhaust, koyo radioator, no a/c, no p/s, airintake. VS. integra GSR with muffler.. who wins???? in a street race???

zbrown

no expert....but i say very close

SDrotary-FC

you should take him with a good launch

88 GTU

I beat a 94 GSR with my 88 gtu so you shouldn't have any problem the advantage we have over other cars is our gearing we have very long gears and an integra or prelude have short gears so you can hold 2nd and 3rd and he'll have to hit fourth and unless he can shift extremly fast he's gonna drop about a car length every shift so just make sure you use up your gears but not too far and you should get him!!!

andrew lohaus

you guys will have about the same power. his only advantage is being a little lighter (but not much if at all) launch well and you should deffinetly take him out of the hole, he might catch up by the 1/8 but then to the 1/4 or beyond you should have the edge since you have taller gears and lower drag.

How much hp are gsr's rated at? And ON the subject of racing, can a 88 GTU beat a old 60's mustang with a exhaust?

gsr's are like 170 to the flywheel stock. Your 91 n/a is 160 flywheel stock. Looking at your mods you should have about 160 to the ground, at least. You will smoke him! His muffler doesn't do ****, absolutly nothing! plus his car is front wheel drive. If you lose this race it's purely because you can't drive. assuming that your car is in good mechanical condition. If your motor was built correctly you should have even more than 160 to the wheels, don't worry about it. I would say you will smoke him on the launch cause we are rear wheel drive but you don't have lsd (do you?) so it could be pretty close on the launch. but i'm sure you'll get him.

If it's any help i beat a gsr with header, exhaust, intake, and partially stripped with my 86 base that had a cone filter and manifold, to raptor muffler, to side pipe for exhaust. but i did have lsd. I had him by like 2 cars or more. With my streetported n/a on the other hand i absolutly walk gsr's with out a problem.

ddub

Neither of you because street racing is for losers. Stop that **** before you kill yourself or someone else, go to a real drag strip if you want to race

oohhhh, tell him!

Ran my friends 94 at the track, kicked his ***. Ofcourse this was with a stock TII.....

Dom_C

You will walk away from him if you can drive your car

iceblue

Im 100% street perhaps thats b/c I despise drag with a pashion! The GSR is quick but ive beaten turbo MR2s my opion is you will beat him and you realy shouldent lose id be pissed if I did in a 7 with thows mods. Thow I have ben taken by a GSR in my rx8 but have no clue on his mods. His fart cannon is good for ohh -2 HP. Have fun pick a safe road and be smart.

Camrann

thanks for the advice, track racing is safer, but....I dont have money for slicks, I like street better...but thanks again guys...what about a 99 f-150 5-speed with intake??

You don't need slicks to run at the track .

Their are exceptions to this, I live in a town where the nearest dragstrip is 2hours away. 5min.s away from my house theres 1000 squaremiles of empty straight roads, no houses. Every sat night people go out there to drag, this is a drag strip, doesn't matter if your at the track or on the street if your gonna crash, your gonna crash. Have a completely seperate road to ride back on. Haven't had a crash yet. Racing where theres any traffic is stupid, racing where theres no traffic and you know theres no traffic is okay. Driving 2 hours to sit for 1hour for your turn is stupid.

SDrotary-FC

i beat a 289 V8 one the other day

ddub

That's still stupid and retarded. Does this "drag strip" have medical attention if it's needed? What about a crew to put out fires? Or help people that crashed and are dying? Real dragstrips do...

The nearest dragstrip to me is over an hour away and I'll still never race on anything else. It's your choice if you want to do stupid ****, but just because there isn't any traffic there still doesn't mean it's safe.

It's more than just an empty road that makes a real drag strip safer...

yeah i agree there are exceptions, all you hear about is idots racing in trafic and hitting someone head on.

wether your out in the boonies,

or when you go to the kent area street races, your there in an empty industrial area at 2 am theres no inocent bystanders watching, they are all racers,gangs or drug dealers or people who go to watch street races,
so when someone crashes its someone crashing into another street racer who knew the risks anyway.

and we race knowing theres no medical attension, or safty so if you race and die or get hit by someone, you will know it was your own fault for being there or racing. and its a chance that i and alot of other people are willing to take.



so as to stay on topic, i raced a like 98 or so stock gsr on hte freeway with my 87 rx-7 ( AWAY FROM TRAFIC) and it was pully on me slightly, i had a full exhaust system but i had one of those gay silencer inserts in ( to keep noise down a wee bit) which took most of the power away. it prolly pulled on me since my engine has bookoo miles and about 90 compression all around...

sikrx

na rx7 vs GSR, you will be in front at the start but once the gsr hits 3rd gear, its when all the power comes in. it'll be close

gerbraldy

I agree with you completely kompressor, everybody out there knows whats going on and knows the risks. Medical crews, fire crews, thats all good but us risk takers out here are all about racing, not stupid racing because that is not what this is. Of course everybody has their own opinions and we are ALL intitled to them, but this is all we have so we use it very wisely. If some idiot tries coming back down the drag road instead of taking the detour back to the *staging area* his *** is kicked out, he will not race ever again. These are friend against friend grudge matches 90% of the time so if somebody crashes there are plenty of people (bout 200) there to call for help. It's your option to be safe all the time, by no means is anyone calling you a ***** for not street racing, nor should you call us stupid for making a *safe, free enviorment to race, you just would rather crash at a strip than crash in the boom docks. Everybody knows the risks of racing altogether, street or strip if your around people who are reckless there will always be major risks involved.

My friend had an integra 90' ls, it would go head to head with my buddies old 85 1/2 944. If you have a streetport etc. you shouldn't have a hard time beating himn

Camrann

look I aprecciate the talk about safety but this thread was about street racing, not ur moral opinions on illeagal racing so please contintue on with the original topic, anyone everraced and f-150 99 2 door 5-speed?
my friend beat him in the gsr i mentioned earlier
so i should beat him then right?

Ok...

Um, the mention of racing an Integra on the street is somewhat acceptable to about 50% of the people on these boards... But asking if you'll beat an F-150??? That's just ridiculous... Not to profile, but I'm guessing you're a sophmore/junior in highschool. DON'T RACE ON THE STREETS. I'm not trying to break you down, but use sober judgement to assess your own abilities... When I was a junior in HS, I crashed my N/A FC into a bush and rock when I was taking a turn. The reason I crashed was because I started 'pushing' and since I was unexperienced in hard cornering, I hit the brakes instead of merely letting off the gas and 'engine braking' through the rest of the turn. Gain experience before you find your self having to make a split second decision that could have grave consequences.

(BTW, if you're not 16 or 17, I apologize. But anyone who wants to honestly race an F-150 HAS to be somewhat new at driving).

I drive 3 hours to a track, one way and 3 hours back. Does that make me stupid? And 1000 square miles of nothing? I love in the boondocks and middle of nowwhere, we have houses here and there.

Camrann

ur right about the age....whats wrong with a little fun(my friend thinks hihs f-150 is fast hahaha.., about the bush crash, dont talk to me about "experienced drivers" im not a good driver but I wouldnt do that....anyways who cares? if u dont like street racing dont bother arguing about it..
-thanks for the advice though
