It was my first time driving a standard at the track. I did like 4 runs my first one was very slow I did a 17.80 I did faster on my 96 sedan non-vtec accord lol.... I guess I need practice...
2nd run I did 16.4
3rd run I did 15.8
4th run I did 16.2

Now my RSX-S is all stock just have a Filter instead of the air box and I put a universal exhaust tip (pretty gay I'm saving up for the Greddy Exhaust)

I wanted to know your time with your mods and if you can give me tips on how to launch the car because I always spin all 1st gear and half of second and I launch at 2k RPM and i try to let go of the clutch slowly... Thanks

 

get better tires
get esmm or some kind of motor mount upgrade
practice, practice, practice

best i've done was 14.1 @ 101 2.4 60ft in 95 degrees with cai/e/k-pro

now i have cai/rh/k-pro/upgraded tires
i hope i can hit 13s consistently when the weather gets cool

 

Those are slow man.

 

wats esmm?

 

esmm=energy suspension motor mounts

 

im gonna hit the track on saturday and sunday in pamona i have aem cold air, buddy club RH, 2.5in exhaust and RBC, K-pro and enjo motor mounts im trying to hit a 13.8 on slicks hope i can do it what do you guys think?

Mounts

 

I guess I'll look for some mounts and do you the average to install them?

ask a fellow rsxer in your area

could be both or the way you're launching

 

yea i did a 15.77 2 times but my 60ft was 2.9 seconds...which is crap...i was a bit paranoid when 2 of my spark plug wires popped off on my first run. and plus i got 2 tires which are treadless...so next time ima have new tires and fix those spark plug wires and hopefully get 14s...i have nology ignition coilpack, dc header, and injen cai

 

my best time was 15.03 on stock tires. The first time i tried at the track i did a 15.63... went for a second time and got better. stock rsx, completly stock.. hight and everything.... only thing i changed was my tire psi.

Ill try to find the slip and post my 60ft and all that.

Personally, I never saw the point in getting rid of the direct coil-on-plug setup for a setup that uses plug wires. The stock system should be more than sufficient for any n/a setup (or boosted for that matter). Has anyone ever dynoed the nology stuff and showed an actual gain (outside of their marketing dept)?

 

15.2 was stock and 14.7 with aem sri and clutch

 

lmao

 

i got eg drivers with better time... sorry launch better and dont granny shift

you better be able too. Theres a guy on crsx hitting 13.8's with only cai/rh and hoosier drag radials i think, launching at 5500.

 

Stock RSX-S w/stock tires should be around 15.0 depending on weather and track altitude.

RSX-S w/CAI and some better tires i've seen as good as 14.4x

RSX-S w/CAI, EXH, testpipe or race header, hondata reflash or kpro and some hoosier DR's or slicks... 13.7x - 14.2

don't forget to take into consideration the weight of your car for those that race with full systems, spare, etc.

 

dude i ran a 16.5 in a 05 civic lx with no mods. the first thing you gotta do befor any mods is become a much better shifter or somthing.

 

Ran a 13.56@101.5 on 23" slicks at 3500ft elevation.

 

Ran 13.9 with i/e/tp/k-pro/esmm/itr throttle body. guess i have the driver mod

 

12.84 was my best e.t so far at RT66 Dragway in Joliet IL at the BOTI last sept.

gotta love that boost. lol
