The first Honda slain...

[SoCalS14]

OK....I have had this S14 SR for two days...I have been very good about not running it to hard, trying to get past that first 500 miles...However...Thats when this little '04 Si Hatch rolled up thinking he was hard...

So we are on the freeway, and without even downshifting...I smoked him...more like toy'd with him...The power comes on sooo smooth...he just could not keep up...it was fun...all without even taking the car past 5.5k rpm's!

The little Si that could...just could not....I feel like a bully, picking on little Hondas...hahaha!

If the motor has not been rebuilt recently, you do not need to go easy on it for the first 500 miles. Its already broken in.

[SoCalS14]

No it has not been rebuilt, but it is a used motor...I want to get all the gunk out...

[jdmfreak]

Those SIs are nothin. The Signal and GReddy SIs a ****in quick though.

[SoCalS14]

He had nothing on me...The great thing is, the only way you can tell I have an SR is by seeing my IC, but thats tough when your behind me...hehe

[SoCalS14]

I have been eyeing some WRX's & Eclipses, what so you guys think? anyone runagainst these with any luck?

[jdmfreak]

WRXs- Definately possibleSTIs- A definate threatGSX/GS-Ts- Can be beasts so watch out

[[Zero-S]]

GSX-If you can get them on launch, you're good.GST-SameSTi-Watch out, they will own youWRX-Driver

[jdmfreak]

Yes. Modded STI can = Major pwnage.

That is my set-up now...all I reeally need is injectors and something to run them...of course some dyno time would not either...

[jdmfreak]

Well I say still watch out for the STIs. Even moreso the DSM's. Them some sneaky bastards.

[SoCalS14]

well you what?

[jdmfreak]

Well I edited that post.

would a n/a 240 be able to beat a turbo H22 prelude?I know my friend beat a turbo civic in his 240 that thing has a hella loud BOV!

so what about a turbo lude?an...how far behind an evo 3 and a turbo altezza would I be? lol

[jdmfreak]

Competent NA 240=More $$$ than a KA-T or maybe an SR

[whiterps13]

an n/a 240 wont stick with a stock h22 prelude, let alone a turbo one.

[SoCalS14]

Let alone an Evo...

[PantherRacer]

WOW....so the lude is that much better than the civic? gee...my boy gettin a turbo for his KA around christmas...I'ma try get my 240 an try play catch up with him...but a turbo 240 can get a turbo lude right???

and just how fast is the CA18DET....I might get a 200sx

THANKS GUYS!

[jdmfreak]

A turbo 240 will definately keep up with a turbo Lude with the right parts.

And it should be able to keep up since the 240 does have torque.

Those damned stis are wicked. A friend of mine kept up with one until they hit 120. But thats an s14 with an sr20 and hell of a lot of work running quite a bit of boost. No traction until 3rd gear.
