Dude, you have an 11 second GSR, and you don't know what engines are out there?

Your GSR runs an 11.75 and you're asking if you need a better motor?

Stock Gsr but has forged internals... I guess its no longer stock now is it?

seems like your car is a little heavy for 9's without an insane amount of power.


If you want to run 9's in the 1320 than that motor better be sleeved and fully built to handle the power you need to get you in the 9's. Oh yeah, have your car go on a diet , before you weld the roll cage in. No more interior, no longer a comfy ride with your suspension. Lexan and Carbon Fiber are your friend or better yet swap that motor in a hatch.

Maybe catch the sarcasm of the remark, hints the thumbs down and the dumb founded emotion face.

I think I smell some bullshit here. 9's is in no way easy to hit, and this guy says he wants to run 9's like its no big deal. Maybe he can tune his nos timer better than jessy from the Fake and the Furious, I dunno!

It is almost expected now that when someone makes a nonsense thread, that somebody will make a f & f remark. t- kid. You need to do some of your own research, people here wil not make up your mind for you, and if you had to ask this question, then obviously you didn't do all the necessary efforts towards your current setup. Ask your wrench man what he thinks.

Ok I have problem writing really what I mean !!!!!

I wanted to know if I should change my engine or not because I know that GSR motor are really great by I wanted something maybe a little bite more stronger.

As for my setup I ran a 11.75 with a T3-T4 full int street gas @ 19psi. Now I putting the full-race kit that I just bought with a all new setup that 's why I want to put all my chance on running close to a 9'slow 10's.

And my car I have a 92hb si with GSR motor,int, body kit, I shaved my door's and trunk and I have power window and door lock it's really a nice car but I know it's too heavy for know.I'm probally going to sell my shell to by a DX,CX,VX to be less heavy so I going to be a step closer to my goal.

I'm asking all those question because I'm new in the world of HONDA/ACURA'S I did this setup at the beginning of this summer for fun and ran really good time's but it was my daily driver. I want to change to keep the car in the street class but I want to be as competitif as the other so if you guy don't want to help me out to achived my goald well fine but please don't bug me out.
