Acura RSX Type S... or a G35?

 

stop

 

wow are you serious?
i hope not, but if you are
the g is much faster than the type-s in a straight
roll or dig
given if both the drivers don't suck

 

G was my first choice for a car, luckily for me a i dont have g35 money. i love my type s. But the g's are super sexy and a blast to drive and would walk an rsx type s from a dig a roll.

hmm... thought the type s would win... i beat one just the other day...

 

or you ran against a horrible driver, but even a bad driver should be able to pull it out if they are in a g35 and running against a type s

I'm not exactly sure but I think the G35 would win. I raced a G35 coup before with my B16a Hatch and I killed him. He must of been a bad driver

was he actually racing you?
not saying it didn't happen because anything can happen on the streets
but in a actual race with decent drivers on normal conditions, the g will win every time

i've seen a 2dr g auto get pulled a car or 2 by a type-s before
the type-s had k20a1/cai/type-r header/gutted cat/k-pro/type-r exhaust

or he let off, but i think the g would def win over the type-s

 

stock for stock (meaning absolutely nothing done to it, factory specs) ==&gt;G35
that's if both drivers know how to drive, If G35 don't have a good driver the rsx-s would win and if rsx-s didn't have a good driver then the G35 would win.

This is a driver match.

You need the g35 to miss a gear to win that, just hitting gears faster wont win you that race . Stock for stock, on a straight away, both drivers shifting identically, g35 wins by a descent margin.

 

This makes me mad. My sister's 17 year old boyfriend drives a G35 and my a2 swap won't keep up!??! But "he paid for it" ...with his $30 an hour his parents give him.

**** i make $27 and some change an hour unfortunately all my money goes to the "ricefuckups" from previous owner.

 

that's if the rsx has the best driver ever
and the g has a average to not so good driver
even if the g was auto, i still think it can beat a type-s

 

most stock rsx-s ive seen are still in the 15 second range regardless of their "capability" to hit 14s. numbers can only say so much.

id have to say stock vs stock with equal drivers, the G35 would win no matter from a dig or a roll. my stock gsr can run with stock rsx-s but G35s will pull me like nothing all day.

Yes the G35 will beat an rsx-s i'm not saying it wouldn't all i'm saying is, it's a drivers race. We aren't talking big dramatical seconds here we are talking tenths of a second. You guys act like every G35 owner is an A class 1/4 mile driver.

What you think because a G35 runs low 14's every person who drives one is going to run low 14's? Same for the rsx-s because it runs high 14's, every driver is going to run high 14's? It's the driver, not the car, the driver. Cars don't drive themselves now do they? That's why i say it's a drivers race. We are only talking tenths of a second here not 2-4 secs faster.
Right, sure your "stock" gsr can run with a stock rsx-s. You realise stock means absolutely from factory no bolt ons and no mods right?

so it has a fart can with the stock exhaust...stock header, stock intake arm, stock suspension, oem wheels, full interior so its close to factory stock and is definitely no faster than any bone stock gsr.

i forgot the RAZO pedals and a 10 year old Kenwood head unit

A stock rsx-s is not anything fast. A bolt-on rsx-s isnt even quick without a reflash or kpro. Now a G35 isnt fast either, but the OP asked in general which car is faster which driver does matter, but im sure hes more referring to which car SHOULD be faster and you cant argue that with equal drivers the rsx-s would lose. Hell Id beat any Lambo or Ferrari if the driver does nothing but stall at the line.

no a stock rsx-s isn't anything fast but i don't see a "stock" gsr hanging with an rsx-s by any means. They put down 145ish HP as opposed to a 170ish hp rsx-s. i mean it's fast for a n/a 4 cylinder stepping up from the older series, i guess you could say. But yes i can't argue the fact that with equal drivers a G35 would hand the rsx-s it's ***.

Also on the lambo one yeah to a certain point but even if the driver doesn't stall it would still slaughter you. We are talking secs faster then high 14 car as opposed to the G35 vs. rsx-s both being in the 14 sec area only 10ths of secs apart, which is why i say it's a drivers race.

other thought:
to bad the GSR blades were only 4 lug, i think they would look sick on an rsx.

i edited last post.. forgot to add some statements.

i didn't even want 16's on my rsx but it's a hard find to get 15's on the car at least what i've been told. 15's barely clear the calipers. There are like a very select few that actually clear, so with that being said i'm going to have to stick with the 16's. I didn't want the 05-06 17's on my car. Got some sexy rims tho. Rare Stock OEM Gunmetal RSX-S rims. they look sexy as ****. (wish they had a drooling emoticon)

 

good topic i made then... the g35 i beat wasnt auto... i barely beat him... i was surprised as well... i always assumed the type s would at least be up there against the g35... because my brother had a 04 si and he was up there with a 350z he only had headers... cold air... and a vtec controller... does anyone know the g35 hp?

</TD></TR></TABLE>i second that
a stock type-s can't beat a z
how can a base model(or ep) can
like i said, anything can happen on the streets

g35s, the older models have 300hp or really close to it
depending on 2 vs 4 dr
it can decide on the outcome

 

Not all true. I was called out by a G35, and I smoked him twice! I just have basic bolt-ons and a clutch, and he's a good driver.
