How do you think a stock 92 accord ex would fare in autocrossing? I know almost everything can race, but has anyone here had experience racing these, and if so, how are they?

 

well the 4th gens are supposed to be the lightest....i guess with some suspension work and the such it should sufficient, of course with a good drive anything is possible.

 

at least get some sways, theyll help tremendously, and good tires, otherwise stock, 4th gens arent the best handling...

 

i autox my accord for a season. i had bolt ons and some 17" rims with some kumho 711's (215/45/17) in the rear and some continental contactsports in the front (225/45/17) with Koni Yellows, Skunk coilovers 560lb/in all 4 corners with a 19mm ST rear sway bar.

the accord is very slow and heavy, because of my auto tranny and 17" rims. if i were u stick with some 15" rims. if u're going to get tires get falken azenis, or race tires, anything else is worhtless.

with my suspension setup, off throttle i could easily get the rear end to slide. while braking in a turn the rear end really kicks out then. overall the car handled very well, but when u compare the 125hp/3000lbs to civics of 125-160hp/2400lbs u're nowhere near them.

next season im going to be driving a 1992 civic hatch with a minime engine (ZC block/Z6 vtec head) and hopefully i'll have suspension and some falken azenis.
