Hello everybody
i was just wondering what my 1/4 mile time could be
i've never gone to the track yet

i have 1998 civic si
b18c (178hp)
i/h/e , high flow cat , no p/s , no a/c (190-195hp?)
small weight reduction (maybe 50lb)
tein susp.
i myself weight 180lb

i just shot a video of me going 0-60mph 5.9s accurately
(i would upload it but dont know how)

i started from around 3500 rpm (road was a little wet)

thanks for your time
have a great day

ok the 5.9s run was 22mgb i forgot to turn off the camera (too big to upload)
this one i start from around 4000rpm but too much spin
this one is 6.0-6.1

You sound like an answering machine message

 

You probably have the potential for about mid-14's, but it's impossible to tell without just running the car in the 1/4. There are a lot of factors that come into play.

 

i would like to see the vid

My timer shows roughly one second more than that. The only way to obtain truly accurate figures is to take it to a track or use proper testing gear.

BTW, posting this in more than one forum wasn't really necessary. Ideally it would be in the Drag Racing forum, since the EG+ Civic / Del Sol forum rules don't really allow for something like this, and your car isn't an Integra.

 

can someone else time it for me?
please

i'm sure its not more then 6.1

you will see the rpms go to 4500 and drop to 4000 thats when the car
starts to move


ps the 5.9 run is closer to being 6.0 (now i got good at timing it)

bye

 

I give you about a 6.1. How did you mount that camera? Didn't move much when you took off. You sure you wern't on jack stands?

 

i fastened it securely on the steering column with tape and
placed a cd case under the camera to get the right angle
