sorry guys this is my first post on a message board ever in my entire life, even though i have been into computers and hondas for a long time but my question is. I have a basic setup I/H/E. What kind of 1/4 mile times should i be running? i have never been to a track but I consider myself a pretty good driver and will be going within 2 months and want to know what to expect. Any info would be helpful. Oh yeah i have a 95 Gsr

Welcome. Please take a moment to read this:

The staff of Honda-Tech.com has become aware that you, oh timid newbie, may be wary of posting your musings on our little corner of the Internet. But, young fragile newbie, we want to make you feel welcome and answer your questions. To ease the process we suggest you heed the following advice:

<FONT COLOR="red">First, research our topics to see if your question has already been answered. The site is equipped with a search function that allows you to browse past discussions. Not only might you find an answer to your question, you will also find a great archive of accumulated knowledge that you may wish to read at any time. </FONT>

Be patient. The simplest questions are often answered last. Many people here have been on Internet discussion boards for quite some time and are reluctant to draft answers to questions that they may have posted several times before. Most all questions receive at least some sort of response by the end of each day.

Most importantly, be clear and objective. State the specifics of your situation, as each situation demands a different answer. List your modifications, your intended purpose for the car, and specifically what characteristics you would like to change. The more information you can give us, the better answer you will receive.

If you have a question, make sure it’s a question. Most victims of flame wars post answers in the forms of questions. They have their mind made up, they are not impartial, and all too often they have not done their own research.

Discussions are sometimes better than answers. If you don’t feel as though you are 100% sure of your answer, let your uncertainty be known or don’t answer at all. You will not be flamed for posting your thoughts, theories, opinions, or even wild guesses as long as you don’t represent them as fact. You’ll have done no wrong by making an incorrect assumption as long as you remain open to its discussion and dissection. Keep in mind there is probably someone else out there that can provide a 100% answer.

Try not to **** off the big meany-head Administrators or Moderators.


Enjoy yourself.

 

I would say low 15's with practice. Be ready to be dissapointed your first time, I did. It's all about the launch.

 

Remove the resonator box, turn the timing up and go 15.0. Done it in both of my GSRs. With I/H/E 14.3-14.5 is possible if you can drive.

 

Look at my signature...

 

especially on a 95 integra u should get high 14's with eaze.......
the hp should be there...

if u have a good combo....something good like
AEM cold air intake
DC JDM 4-1
Apexi N1 exhaust

 

I/H/E should def. get you in the deep 14's. The key is learning how to drive on the track. Street and strip driving is totally different and should not be labeled as thesame. The track is a totally diff story when it comes to launching and preping the car to run your best. Don't be dissapointed if you dont' do so well at the track on the first time. Just keep on practicing and you will run fast.
Good Luck

When the say be ready to be disappointed, they mean it. My first track experience i ran 16.4. its all about your launch. I'm not sure about Integra's but i needed to get motor mount inserts to eliminate wheel hop. not sure if you guys do to or not.

 

I sure as hell hope you were doing one of the following to get those times:

1. On Slicks
2. Driving Downhill

 

3. With high winds helping you down the track
4. At 5000 feet BELOW sea level

With I/H/E you should be is super low 15's or super high 14's. So basically about 15.0 This has been proven many times at the Nebraska Motorplex.
One quick note, times DO VARY a few tenths at different tracks! I have first hand experience with this.

 

Oh yeah I am running on 17's with 205 40 series tires that are hella grippier than my stock setup and tokico shocks with skunk 2 coilovers. I assume that should help with launches. It helped me out alot in the street. but I dont know about the track.

Oh yeah and one last question. Since my zero to 60 is supposed to be 7.0 seconds according to all kinds of different sources what might it be with my new setup?

 

i ran 14.700 at 95.53 gutted and consistent high 14.8s low 14.9s in the high 93s low 94s full interior with i/h/e. the 14.700 was only a 2.24 60 foot on street tires. With slicks and a good launch you can get a 2.0 60', 1 tenth in the 60 is 2 tenths in the 1/4. There is your 14.3 Or you could be like evil and run 14.3s stock

 

its all about the "driver."

my car isn't a gsr, but a couple of guys i know with gsrs have that same setup(i/h/e) and they managed to pull 14.7's with street tires.

you might wanna lose the 17's as well. the bigger the wheel, the more rotating mass??try lighter wheels like the hx's or something..(panasports too )

 

I live in FL. And yes I have pulled 15.1 a few times in bone stock GSRs, not on stock tires, but also on regular radials (p6000 pirellis). IT's all about learning to drive and practicing. MY final integra went 14.4@97 (good for about a 13.8 with traction). That's with AEM intake, DC 421 2.25 collect, and a greddy SP exhaust with a test pipe. You tell me, haters can be haters, but those who know me know I am no BS. Just like my old 13.0 NA Civic.

 

hahahahahaha

ok

&lt;---- hater

got any dyno sheets?

 

Dyno sheets wahts that ? This car was putting down low 160s with 135 in torque whereas my civic put down 196/141 recently.

 

low 160HP but 135 torque?

that doesn't add up AT ALL.

*sniff sniff* what's that smell?

 

How many GSRs you know putting down good torque? Not that many, I think you shold do some research because you obviously don't know dick. Mom bought you a computer and a GSR and now you think you know what you read on the boards. You also might want to remember that a Dynojet measures 85% of actual horsepower because its' wheel horsepower not crank.

 

Gee look at all that torque, those are nice motors too. Type Rs. Mike K spec with Jun cams, you tell me if they're making 180 with 132 Torque (lesser compressoin than I had Because of P72 cylinder head). I bet those dyno charts are BS too?


That's the 142 one.

 

You just made yourself look like an ***.

Dynojet does NOT measure wheel horsepower. It measures wheel torque, then does the math.

Do you KNOW how HP is derived? Do YOU know how to do the math?
HP = (torque*RPM)/(5252)

Now if that right there doesn't explain why 160 WHP and 135 torque at the wheels doesn't sound made up in a B18C1, NA or BOOSTED...ask politely and I'll try again.

I bought and built my own computer, and I bought my GS-R and bought and am building my CRX.

Um...guy, your own post just helped me in proving you wrong. I'm trying to tell you that with 135 torque at the wheels, a non imaginary B18C1 will be making MORE than 160ish at the wheels. Those dyno sheets you posted proved that.

The only way I can think of B18C1's making 160/135 at the wheels is a boosted motor in very poor tune.

But here is your setup:

MY final integra went 14.4@97 (good for about a 13.8 with traction). That's with AEM intake, DC 421 2.25 collect, and a greddy SP exhaust with a test pipe

The 160 hp with your mods is beleivable. The ET's aren't...and trying to say it's your torque that's making you fast, that's even less beleivable.

And EVEN IF all this fairy tale BS were true for your car...the vaaast majority of GS-R's with I/H/E are NOT going into the low 14's, "13's with traction" no matter how good of a driver you are.

I'm not calling bs or anything, but those look like two different tegs in that pic you put up (naturalvx). The wheels are different. Not only that, but that exhaust on that teg is a Greddy PE, not an SP (like you stated in your mods).

Those civics look different as well, unless you repainted it, thew on a body kit, changed the wheels, etc. etc. I'm not sure what your point was in posting those pics, but those appear to be 4 different cars. Anyway, like i said, I'm not calling bs because I don't know what was your point in posting those pics (maybe you just wanted to remind us what tegs/civics look like ) but whatever.......
