Nismo241 if you beat an RSX thats killer, but with a good driver the RSX Type S would probably win and you know it. I have beaten an Integra Type R at the track with my Integra LS but I know that most of the time the type R will win. Anyway its nice to beat a car that costs probably 8-10 times more than the price of your car.

I'd have to agree w/ Nismo. S14pimpin sounds like a punk to me. Its just sad when people say they'll smoke you, and they've never been to a track . . .

Nismo, can you d/l and upload some timeslips?

The picture is too big to post. I can send an E-mail with it if you want.

The timeslip reads...

You tune your car, what, do you adjust your "racing" pedals and steering wheel? You don't give a **** what is ran on the track because you're afraid of your inevitable 16 sec timeslip. It's people like you that give imports period a bad name. I'll bet you just learned how to drive a 5 speed and now you think you're hot $hit. I would guarentee I would smoke your a** and we'll find out soon enough when I go to BC for our next car show. Quit talking **** a show some results, I KNOW 100% that my car runs what it does, and I can prove it... can you? Didn't think so.
NOW WHY THE **** WOULD i GO TO A TRACK TO RUN A STOCK CAR? And even if idid run a 15.5, I would hold my head down and not tell a soul. THATS NOTHING TO BRAG ABOUT GIMP!! Maybe when I install the springs in my closet, as soon as i get the shocks that i ordered, and buy the used front tower brace off my buddy, I might go to an autocross course to see what the 240 is really capable of, because every true 240 enthusiast knows that the car is NOT a drag car, but a autocross vehicle. You really are stupid, you're actually boasting and bragging about your 15.5 second time slip? Chump, thats really nothing to brag about, and I could care less if my car runs 16's, probably 99% of the people out there would take my car over your Ronald McDonaldmobile! You got the red and yellow color scheme happening, right? Who you think you're talking to kid, I learned to drive stick about 5 years ago, LOL, this is my 3rd manual car, and yeah, "I'm hot **** cause I can drive stick"

keep **** talking man, and keep doing your ricer fly by's and boasting how you beat this car and that car, whatever man. Keep your ****box on the drag strip, running 15.5.......... oooooooohhh, I'm so jealous! I'm so afraid my car is going to run a 16, what am I gonna do? Maybe I should install the SR, cause I certainly have the funds for it, how bout yourself, you get that raise from McD's cause you have the ronald ride?

Punk, you car is nothing special. Stop thinking you're ontop of the world, beating an RSX type S, thats funny man! Next time ask the guy to race.

Come east to Toronto Mr. Bad a** stock SOHC 240, oh but wait, it has springs and rims so it must be fast!!!

I'm not building a drag car, stupid, thats just wrong with my daily driver 240sx. When I have the suspension upgraded, then goes in the engine, and we'll see who'll be running 15's at the track! :rolleyes

How long have you had your **** box for? Considering your car is about 1/5 of the price of mine, you really should be way above me with mods. If I installed my sprint springs, with HKS camber kit on stock shocks, like yourself noob, then I would be a real turd! BTW, stock piping on an s14 is 2 1/4".

And I did alot of tuning, like my intake and advanced timing, but if I was to put every little item upgraded on my car, my sig would be a page long. I ain't trying to show off or brag like you, dip ****.

Wanna take this to the ring? Put em up scunty c***!!!

The only reason why I said i'd beat him is because i beat a '97 s14 that was heavily modified, port and polish, intake, exhaust and a bunch of other goodies. It all comes down to the driver, I know this, but I do know that my car is in real good working order, and capable of beating a similiarily moddified car (with one less cam).

I personally get offended when people say their slow car can beat somethng that is obviously much faster. You really think I am that naive? RSX time slips on average are around 15.3, at least from I have read. With those numbers there,that beats a 15.5. Call me a punk, I ain't b.s'in no one. An M5 smoked me on the highway last night, but going to the on ramp for th highway, I whizzed right by him on the turn. Does that mean I beat an M5? If I was nismo241, it prolly means I did win!

And what do you have from Nismo on your car buddy?

You should see him wen he hasn't eaten for 3 days :)

Stop arguing... let me put it this way... The best possible time for the RSX is better than the best possible time for a stock 240sx... therefore one would conclude that all the rest is driver error...

Which means, if the drivers were equal the RSX would win.... simple as that...

Now let it go....

You guys are no fun!

:D

Man, don't take my words too serious now, i have nothing against nismo241, I just hate it when someone boasts about beating a car that they know is faster, and all the honda bashing has gotten outta line a long time ago. I beat a Z3 roadster off the line, and then let up and the guy flew by me. But you don't see me starting a thread saying how fast I am, and how my 240 can beat yours, even with next to no mods. Anyway, i love my car, and so do alot of other people, and thats satisfaction enough for me. I don't need any time slips to make up for the lack of self satisfaction. When i am putting down some serious power, I will drag it. When my suspension is in, I'm going to autocross, which we all know takes more skill than driving in a straight line. Besides, thats where the 240 will truly shine.

Can't help you out Dan, I'm on the other side of the continent, but I'm sure people will know where an autocross is being held in your area. Why not start a post? i can't wait for te suspension to come in, I wanna hear my tires scream!!!!

BTW, don't start with me unless you really wanna battle!

You're an idiot. Why would I brag about a 15.5 timeslip, because thats damn good for a realativly stock single cam. Why brag about beating a faster car, why the **** not? Ronald mc donald mobile? Yeah right, the only thing that is yellow on my car is my intake, and that only because they discontinued it and I got the last one. I have an idea, why don't you go and nit pick every post I have and pick out every other grammer mistake I have made, seriously who gives a ****. There is no reason to be jealous, I'm glad you are happy with your 16 second riced out 240.

um why the **** r u guys arguing, it seems pretty gay to me, who cares if he did beat a RSX, I beat a Corvette in my 240, ya hard to believe but it was like a 78 I think, you know the ones that came with only 190 hp and ran 16s in the 1/4. But who the hell cares,both of you guys r slow, Im slow 2, IMO 15s and 16s is really slow!!! **** 14s seem kinda slow 2 cause their is alot of **** that runs faster then that.

a rsx-s would hand our 240's our a**...either way... 1/4 mile or while already moving IMO...and if they handle anywhere close to the white acura type R's..they will hand you your a** on the track as well..right out of the box..that is proven many times over

HAHAHA, jealous of your **** box? Yup, guilty as charged! My riced out 240. true, and yours isn't. Everything you've done to your car is on the outside, so whoever you drive by will be like, "Wow, that thing must be fast, look at it!" A cheesey, cheap a** lowering job of just springs, the cheapest item in a lowering job, on stock shocks that's 1 riced out item for everyone to see. 17 foot konig rims. Thats 2. Loud fart pipe for everyone to hear you. Thats 3. A nice shiny cold air intake, well, I'll give you that.

OK, I know alot of my mods are considered rice, but who is really gonna see them, other than passengers? No one, so I don't consider it rice, the majority of them are comfort items and for my own personal satisfaction. I'm a designer, and I'd like to start my own business of interior detailing, and I'm going to use my car as an example. And if you saw pics of my car, you would not say its rice. And to prove that, I shaved everything minus the door handles, I don't even have a spoiler, geek! Anyway,this is stupid, gimme an RSX, type S or not, and I'll hand you your a** on a platter, fool!

LOL

:ylsuper

and I am very happy with my 15 second 240sx that doesn't have all the flashy exterior items as yours. I could build my car to destroy yours in a matter of a week, but I have better things to invest in. Unlike you, little youngin'

You're a regular einstein, I didn't know yellow was shiny. Loud fart pipe, you have a dual angled tip muffler, thats as rice as it gets. You call paint, pedals, steering wheel, and shift knob mods, please. You call my car rice, it's all stock on the outside except wheels. The springs are on there because there is like a 3 inch wheel gap stock, pull your head out of your a$$. Your not even lowered so quit your bitchin, and I don't care if you have springs in your closet, or shocks on the way, that is still the cheap way, why not get Apexi coilovers or TEIN, do it right. You could do this you could do that, do it then we'll talk, until then put up or shut up.

Unlike you, i take the time to educate myself, and do the job right! I've had the springs for a week, and I'll wait longer if i have to do the install proper, and not risk harming any other components of my vehicle due to a rush job. Pedals, shifter and steering wheel are all comfort items, as in, the car is more comfortable to drive on a daily basis. Comprende mi amigo? ci? I drive about 100km everyday to work and back, as well as the cruising in between, so I NEED my car to be comfortable.

I was planning on just throwing in the springs with stock shocks, but after discussing this with other s14 owners and honda guys who have run lowering springs on stock shocks, they all said if they can do it again, they would wait. I'd love to see your car on the highway with blown shocks hopping up and down the whole way, real comfy and looks very sharp! :)

And if you were some what literate, you would have seen that I list my items as upgraded, not modified! :rolleyes

I scored a bruellen mufflerfor $200CAD, about 60% off the retail price, so I'd be pretty stupid not to take it considering my old mufflerwas rusting out at the bottom. And my car has a nice, low, deep note, where as i'm sure yours sounds like a bee in a can.

I'm not sacrificing comfort just so I can post on this board and say, "look what i have, you're jealous" Thats pretty much the manner in which you portray yourself here.

Coil overs are out of my budget for suspension, since I am also saving for sways in the winter. No worries, gimme about another month and my car will be ready for some major HP, then we'll see who laughs last, you'll be the first on my list to email pics to buddy. Carry on......

If you read my last post, I didn't want the wheel gap. Looks 100% better lowered, you forget, I have wheels, the makes the gap look bigger. All my shocks are blown and ya know what, it doesn't bounce all over the freeway, thats because I don't live in Canada, the US actually spends money to make the roads better. My car outhandles my friends 87 RX7 TII with full suspension. YOu think you will have the last laugh., I don't think so, along HP comes tuning, and I really don't think you can handle that. SO...I will be laughing as your car is sitting on the freeway wit hyour hazards on waiting for the tow truck because you popped your motor.

One question, how are pedals comfortable? I've driven my friends MR2 with "racing" pedals, and it was uncomfortable, they were too big, but I also have huge feet so maybe it's me. I'll agree, my shift knob is a lot more comfortable than my stock one, but the steering wheel, but I guess that all depends.

BTW, my springs I got for 100$, would you pass that up??

Look, I'm not trying to start a fight, but a RSX type S will smoke a SOHC 240sx with equally skilled drivers, period! If you won, good kill, congratulations. But just cause you beat one RSX type S, doesn't mean you're going to beat them all. If you have the opportunity, try and trade cars with the guy you beat and race again. Then tell me your impressions of a RSX type S.

OK, the spring issue. Well, its pretty obvious by your reply that you are just trying to make a fashion statement. Installing springs to some people isn't just for looks (rice). I'm installing my springs to lower the center of gravity on my vehicle, which, in turn, will improve my handling. I'm adding shocks for the damper adjustment and sways and strut brace to stiffen the chassis. Yes, this will remove the ugly a** wheel gap, but I am doing it more for the performance aspect rather than the rice aspect, thats why i am waiting, most likely till after prime time show off season (summer). Oh well, I want it done right the first time, and not have to worry about anything, just straight to the track when the car is ready. A good suspension set up will shave SECONDS off your lap time, but I wouldn't expect a ricer boy to know anything about racing on a track, instead of a straight line on the streets! The hops in your ride will be due to blown shocks, not crappy roads, at high speeds. And FYI, Canadian roads (Toronto to be specific) are better maintained than most of the American roads that i have travelled on (aside from the really large cities). I don't understand how larger wheels will INCREASE the wheel gap, unless its due to a really low profile on the tires. Aside from that, 17" (not foot) wheels would decrease the gap, not increase it from a stock 15" rim, right?

Considering your car is 13 years old, I think its about time you swapped engines, your car will be pooched shortly tough 15 second guy. Mine is 7 years old with 160000km, I think I still have at least 5 years left on her, so I HIGHLY doubt this engine will pooch out on me. This is my 2nd 240sx, so i think i may know a thing or two about the car. Yeah, you better leave this thread to me, cause you keep getting caught with your foot in your mouth. Nothing a little proof reading couldn't fix, but I believe they teach that to you in grade 7, obviously you aren't that old yet. Oh no, I can't handle tuning as well as you can handle your 15 second monster! Wow, I am SOOOO JEALOUS, I wish I could afford 17 foot rims, what a power item! Once I get my turbo installed, I'll talk power to you. FYI, I'm pushing somewhere in the neighbor hood of 170HP, which isn't much, but is more than a SOHC motor. The only reason your car would be faster is because it is lighter, power to weight raio's, y'know? Big deal, your car can beat mine (maybe, pretty unlikely) but if it could, I DON'T GIVE A s***!! I can point out 50 cars on the streets that will take my 240 to school, but I'm not trying to be the fastest guy on the streets. My car is a daily driver, and even when I do swap to the SR, I will run it stock until I buy another sweet car to drive daily. You're still a kid, with no bills or responsibilities, so go ahead and waste all your coin.

buddy, your uncle ben's mobile can't talk to my machine! Keep trying though, I'll see you on the autocross course in a couple months.

:D

Springs add performance too, its not just for looks, noob! Your pos outhandled another ****box, congrats. How do you manage to measure this when you don't autocross? Maybe your buddy can't drive, or maybe the rx isn't running properly, who knows and who cares. I'm sure your car handles nicely, I'm not going to take that from you, but upgrade your car for the right reasons, you're lost man. All you talk about is performance this, and performance that, but you justify your mods with ricer boy answers. One day, young grasshopper, you will open your eyes and see that i am only trying to help you out, not battle..........
