can someone explain to me why people by hondas and acuras and fix them up.. why not just take all that money and get an AMG benz, Porshe, or if you are on a budget, a Vette

On a budget?

dude, purchase price + all mods came to 28K. I'll be all over it if you can hook me up with a low mileage 2003 28k vette.

Is 13.024 considered a good quarter mile time or no big deal? Some of you may remember my RSX has had a lot of work done and my fiance took it to this drag strip place recently and ran it there. He brought back this receipt that had that time on it.

Thats frickin fast for an RSX....what kind of work have you had done...?

I've had extensive work on my Grand Prix GT and replaced parts and added a supercharger, light weight aluminun cradle.... an overdrive pulley, new heads, new cam, throttle bottle and lightweight wheels....

My car has ran an 11.028...on a 1/4 mile ...but thats after thousands of dollars...... :rolleyes: wasn't really smart on that desicison.....

Either way that is still exceptionally fast for an RSX..

Whoa! That sounds stupid fast! I think that's the kind of number I was expecting.

We've had very similar mods done. Jackson Racing supercharger, Pulleyboys 3" pulley to increase it to 11psi (as high as reccomended for that engine), Hondata programmable engine management, new cams, CAI, Exedy limited slip diff, catback, header. Only reason we even chose to do all that is my dad and fiance were able to do ALL the work themselves, which you know saved an assload of money.
 
yes, think of it this way 12 sec 1/4miles = roughly 4-5 sec 0-60 times, 13= 5-6, 14-6-7, 15-7-8. these are all rough estimates, but hte majority of it unfurls like that. did he have street tires or drags? if streets that is one impressive car cuz unless hes lightened the weight, thats some impressive engine power. on streets with all the wheel spin and tire burn and he manages to pull off 13 seconds, on drags it would be 12s. very nice time i should say.

i jsut read up: 337 wheel horsepower is fucking insaaaane. is it turbo charged? 337 works out to like 360 at the crankshaft. and the crankshaft horsepower is what all the car companies advertise. like when ferrari says x car has 500 hp, its talking about crank horsepower. but wheel hp is where it counts cuz thats how much power is actually going to the wheels and propelling the car, now how much the engine is making.

Someone please tell me what this freakin car had done before my head explodes.
 
Your car would be a good go with my '72 pickup truck...I'd still take you though as I typically run 12.6's. Do you know your 0-60' times?
