whats the difference? in australia the delsol is the fastest front wheel drive car but ive seen some s2000s around and they dont get much credit...so does this mean that delsol is faster than s2000?

 

I don't even think you can compare the two!

 

2 totally diffrent cars.... with a name like Spoon-S2000 i'd think you would know this

 

i feel bad for you if the fastest front wheel drive is a delsol. i am sure there are plenty of cars faster.

they dont call em del slo's for nothing.

 

 

you can, but it would be a waste of time in most instances

 

i said " AUSTRALIA " if dat dont mean neything to any1

 

i kno, but sif u can get a spoon s2000 in aus, save getin enuf money, even if i could i prolly spend half my life fixing insurance

 

dont you get itr's in australia? shouldnt that be faster than a delsol?

 

Australia / New Zealand has the Nitromethane H22 powered Drag Delsol.

There is no S2000 that is quicker than this Delsol in the straightline, then again this is not really a Delsol anymore.

In the relatively modern history of small two seater Hondas, since the 80's, there have been a few cars. The Beat, The CRX-1,2,3 (Delsol) and the S2000.

Considering the origin of the S2000 to the Sxxx (S600,etc) roots versus the Civic Renaissance Project and the Civic roots of the CRX and Third Generation CRX-Delsol, you cannot really compare them.

Stock, the S2000 is much faster than the Delsol VTi/VTEC/SiR in every dimension, but the S2000 is nowhere near as practical as the Delsol. The equation is not always as simple as comparing 240-250hp to 160-170 hp. It's not as simple as saying RWD v FWD. It depends on the application, and both of these cars have adequate and very usable power. The cars behave differently as well, the driver's ability to work with and understand the car is the biggest factor in performance driving. One also needs to remember that the S2000, at least in chronological sense, succeeded the Delsol VTEC/VTi/SiR (EG2/SR-2 platform). It would make sense that such a car would show improvements upon its predecessors.

I happen to drive a Delsol VTEC, and I would like to have an S2000 as well, but as this is pretty much my only vehicle, the S2000 would not be practical at all. Try moving off campus with the S2000, this includes transport of a mountain bike.

In conclusion, I'd like to have both.

I'd actually like to park my Milano Red Delsol VTEC in a three car garage, next to my Milano Red S2000 and Milano Red NSX. If I could, I'd get a Milano Red Beat too.

Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.

 

Seeing as how your post was at 4:20 AM, I'll assume you were hitting the bong when you made that post.

 

Where there is a will there is a (often unsafe and incredibly unpracticle) way

 

Heh, removal of passenger seat, removal of targa and front bike wheel...

Towel around the rear rollbar/pillars to protect the car and my belt around the front fork/frame assembly for 'security' made for an interesting drive to my new housing location

 

yup, we do.......ITRs arent much match.....

im not so sure but i think theres a delsol in adelaide who did topspeed about 7.6 i think.....anyway it is faster than any ITR

 

er...i kno the s2000 got a f20a engine but wat bout the crx? isit d16y?

 

i thought they were talking stock to stock too when i first posted. i guess their talking modified

 

Funny to be on the other end of the arguement.

j/k

PS I want to see a ricerocket kia! That would be hillarious!!!!

 

you sir should learn more about hondas........you look like an idiot

 

? Confused...how am I an idiot?

 

 

WOW

 

Given that the GSR and del Sol VTEC have pretty similar performance, I can't understand why this would be a relevant posting........

Yes, there are some slow del Sols (auto S models), but we're not talking about economy base models here are we??

im only 14 damit

 

itr will own del sols
