Unhappy GSX&RSX

Met up w/ acouple buddies and decided to get some runs in

First was the GSX he said he upgraded the turbo and that was all. I did the honks and he jumped it a little by the end of 2nd though i had him and he fell farther from there on. We shut it down around 100-110 (gotta love the autobahn)

Next was my buddies RSX he had all the simple boltons+ cams and upgraded clutch. We started in second and i was definetly surprised by how quick that shit was. He stayed consistently by my rear quarter panel all 3 races. I won but it was really close.

BTW my car is completly stock

This is coming from an unbiased view, as I am getting an S2000 in a few months. You beat the driver of the RSX, not the car. If he had cams then he also had KPRO and was tuned. An RSX with full boltons, cams and KPRO is a mid 13 second car and would pull you pretty good from a roll.

Anyway, nice kills You must be a very good driver.

just because of cams in an rsx doesn't mean that the owner has gotten around to tuning it.. It can be possible he was running untuned..

GSXs arent that fast up top.. But if the turbo is upgraded and such, I see no reason why it wouldnt beat an RSX with basic bolt-ons and no tune..
My friend used to own one, he had basic bolt-ons, and well I killed him everytime.. My S is far from stock though..
Also RSX-S, are very capable cars.. A properly runed one could put a hurtin on a GSX..

Good Runs!

Are you kidding? Why is it whenever theres a RSX vs. anything thread you jump in and call BS, or say it isn't possible? Whether you hate Rsx's or not, get educated about what your calling BS on. 02-04 RSX with Hondata 4/I/E/H is a drivers race with a stock s2000. 05-06 RSX with Hondata4/I/H is a drivers race. Lets not even get into an RSX with cams and Kpro ecu, cause theres no question that will pull on a stock s2000 properly driven, from a roll. Anyways, I've owned both cars and I like my S more, but I know what the RSX is capable of.

, their are videos on street fire showing rsx's beating s2k's. A decently modified rsx will beat or be a drivers race versus a STOCK s2k.

stfu... it's not a big deal, i can say what ever i feel like saying. Even if i know what im saying is false I can still say it... I'm gonna say the same like I do in every rsx thread.

not thats some serious


I have like 4 videos flloating around here showing that not to be true... A cammed one with bolt ons and tune will be faster than a stock s2k. And thats not all that impressive.
