I've heard anything from 14.9's to high 13's. What can I really expect from a 95 gsr swap in a 92 vx with aem cai and greddy exhaust? Or should I say what would the car with the proper driver and tire able to do under good conditions? Any input or personal EG hatch/gsr swap times would be welcome! 1/8th mile times too!!

 

my personal best on street tires was 14.0 on street tires (Bridgestone Potenzas), catback exhaust, stock airbox. on the normal i would net around 14.2-14.4.

i have seen a couple of egs go as fast as 13.3-13.4 on 13x8x22 slicks with b18c1 simple bolt ons, its very possible.

good luck man

Well if someone has done 13's then I have something to shoot for! Thanks for the info and hopefully i'll have some timeslips before long!

 

12's on 22 m&h's are just a 1/4 time away.

i have seen 13.9, in my friends cx but that was his best not his average

 

yup, its not hard at all to run 13's if you have a gsr motor in a hatch... nice cams w/ proper tuning should help a lot! show 'em how it's done! goodluck

 

his motor was bone stock, and i dont even think he had an exaust

 

Well I just put a Greddy SP exhaust on and the gsr aem cai is sitting in the box waiting. Hopefully in a week or so i'll have the motor in and it should also have a dc header by then. 2100 lbs and a B18c1 with I/H/E hopefully will get me 13's!

 

Thank god you guys are posting decent times. I'm so tired of hearing about hybrids running like 14.90's. I ran 14.40's on DX wheels with a LS swap 100% bone stock in a "heavy" Civic Coupe.

You should expect to go deep 13's on slicks with that setup. I personally went consistent 12.80's @ 107 with a 100% stock head, but I was running a LS shortblock.

(I went from 100% stock '98 LS swap to LS/VTEC by adding a Type-R head from Acura, sorry for the confusion)

i would say mid 14 with the vx model.

My friend has a 93 Cx with a B18C1 motor and runs consistent 9.5's in the 1/8th.
We don't have a 1/4 mile track anywhere around

Not sure what you guys are running in the 1/8th.....

 

Man this thread came back from the dead!

I ended up getting a B16 and running same times as a GSR swap. Oh well

 

I did 14.2

 

drop the exhaust, and have a good intake.

if you have good tires and suspension , 13's should be cake.

 

Haha..for a second there I thought you had sold your b16 for a GSR swap!

Have you gotten a chance to try for the 14 flat yet?

 

No not yet. March the 1/4 opens up and i'll try again unless I have a new setup of some kind. Wouldn't mind the GSR swap but i'm still happy with my B16

 

How long of a drive is it to Bowling Green for you?

 

It's like an hour and 20 minutes. It's not bad at all. Have you been there yet? You gotta get some 1/4 times for the z6!

 

Thats not bad at all. I've never been to the 1/4 track yet, I've been saying I need to ever sence I bought my Civic. From what I've seen around I'd probably pass around a 15.2-15.3. I could probably make a 14 second Z6 car if I was staying NA, BUT I'd like more.

 

My old 92 Civic DX with a D16z6 ran a 9.8 in the 1/8th and ran a 15.3 in the 1/4 at indy so you should run about the same. When the track opens up you should come down. When does louisville's 1/8th mile open up for t&t?

Well as soon as the track opens up I gotta try and run a faster time than my pathetic 14.9, but those runs were with the secondaries closed the whole time. If I can somehow make them function properly then I will be happy, if not then I will force them open/remove them, and see what I run then.

Hopefully it will be ALOT faster....

 

shitty blown suspension,and shitty stock clutch I pulled a 14.4 @ 97 in mine. Not stripped.

 

I have that same question. I have 92 cx with b18c1. Vtec don't work. Vtec was not working when the motor was in a 94 gsr. Didn't ran the 1/4 yet. Did you have any problem with the Vtec working after your swap? Thank.

Remove them you'll be happier.
