Talking I think I got challenged!

It seems that Malix is going to take on my 90hp of Thunder Civic.

Here is the tale of the tape from the Civic camp:

90HP
D16y Non VTEC
5-Speed
Stock to the bone
No mods

VS

125HP
KA24DE
Automatic
MODS Fill in the spots Mal.


I know everyone hates these but how do you think this will end?

We are going to do this on a legal track. I don't know I think it will be fun. I like have like nothing to loose!

no weight reduction on your part Stanbo?



how did all this come to boot? honda VS nissan. a civic at that. looks like it may come down to driver ability on this one. we all know the honda is rev happy so that will be an advantage.

the ka has like 60 more ft lbs of tourque though.

weight transfer.

keep us posted.

better get a tune up Stanbo

Dude if you think these posts get off topic you should see me have a conversation. We go all over the place.

Mal just surprised me with this one. I am shocked that he has not posted on this thread.

the auto isn't that slow. it should do high 16's. automatic transmission = automatically faster.

oh, and Stan, the ka24de has 155hp, not 125

Talking to the wheels. The civic isn't 90. It is rated at 108/110.

I am going by the dyno numbers posted in import tuner. It was surprising to me that actually spent some time doing some parts testing.
