well I guess it must be around 15.5 give or take some, because silent drifter ran a 15.5 all night (yes I saw the slips) with a crap 60ft time and a bad clutch. (the cluth was in hellish condition) Its nicknamed "The factory fluke"From what i hear only eahuast is the only mod. If this is what they usaully run then why does everyone knock em as "slow cars

yeah, back when i had my ka I ran 15's too...Now i dont even know why i bothered running it...As for 15s being fast, yeah, pretty quick for a stock car, but nothing special. Sti runs a low 13 stock, zo6 runs low 12's, vipers and the such...those are fast cars.

when it came out it was rated by most magazines at 16.1

so give or take .2 seconds for stock

not fast at all, barely worth wasting money at the track for, you're better off just using a stopwatch :)

13.5-14 is quick...14.5-15.5 is "fun"

13.5 and below is pretty fast....

Hmmm....Aries runs 12 something, maybe faster, but as we all know, thats far beyond stock. I want someone w/ an SR to post their time.

Not to come off as an ***-hole but 15.5........ISN'T fast! Just cause you can smoke every Civic/Intergra on the street doesn't mean your car is fast. Even 14's are slow. 13's .....now you are getting there 12's: congratulations you can run with most of the STOCK big dogs(Vipers/z06/SVT).

PS: You sound more like Silent Drifter's h03 than someone asking an opinion. You should have just asked Silent Drifter.....sounds like his car would have run 14's stock if he wouldn't have had all those problems....hehehe. I want slips and pictures!
