has anyone here ever ran against one in a 5th gen 5spd prelude?

how were the results from a 60+ roll

thanks

 

60 mph is some roll.

 

Stock silvias run low to mid 14s. You will get owned. BTW this should be in Kills, they would enjoy it.

 

so what about it makes it so much quicker???

is it the torque? the rwd?

 

OK. They don't even sell that car in the US...

To the kills forum with you and your hypothetical racing...

What speed are JDM cars governed to in the ECU? 108mph or something? I guess the Prelude would have an easy win after that point...

The whole damn post is hypothetical! The silvia is just a 240sx with a sr20det motor, so if you swap out the engines you get the same numbers as a Silvia. BTW if anyone went through the trouble of swapping out the motors, I would hope that they would be intelligent enough to have the ECU reprogrammed so that they could break 108 mph.
Edit: Nissan engines can take a good bit of boost. Most enthusiasts with turbo'd cars will have a boost controller and will not be running the stock boost level. Also the RWD will help on the launch.
