I just got a 01 ITR.. My friend got a S2000... I want to beat him.. what is the best mods.. that can get my car one second faster to beat that S... I just got that car so i m low in cash.. but I really want to shut him up...

 

take off your p/s belt.
weight reduction

edit: you still wont beat him unless he's not that good of a driver. but those are free

Practice, good header, mild cams & tuning. Thats it.

 

Do you think your friend is out there on an S2000 board, asking the same questions? "My friend has an ITR, how can I be sure I hand him his ***?" and so forth.

 

lol.. nah.. he's a rich lil bro that doesn't has time for this.. he'll just buy a faster car once i beat him....

 

best way ?! ... NoSSSSSS

 

u gotz VTECH.. thats th only way
hahaha.. id say NOS too.. but if u cant drive well, then dont get it. practice for a while. just keep your confidence up and tell him that u got something under your hood. scare him..

 

Get a bike.

 

There will always be someone faster than you.

Deal with it.

 

Gentleman's advice. Wussy newb. Your just used to getting beat.

 

50 shot of NX should put him in his place nicely.

 

From what I've heard, the S2000 is very hard to launch. You might be able to take him with your stock ITR.

 

 

JDM 4-1 with full 2.5" exhaust, cam gears, VAFC, FPR (maybe), some weight reduction, and getting it tuned very well would be one way. Another way to beat him would be to invite him to the grocery store, fill the ITR with a keg, 300 cups, 3 bags of ice, and 5 cans of pringles, and then take 3 girls home with you.

 

You comitted a sin and misspelled vtec.............

Best advice for you is to detach your ego from your car. Spending money to be faster than so and so is only a bottomless pit. Someone will ALWAYS own a faster car than you because someone always has more money than you. Spend your time becoming a better driver if that's your game. If you take away the car you'll still have your skills.

Furthermore, trying to be faster than everybody is only going to make you more likely to crash your car, get tickets, get dead, etc.

But to answer your original question, forced induction is probably the easiest way to gain speed. A supercharger will more than likely give you the speed you speak of.

Nawwwwwzzzzzz yo

 

Gerbil Power!

 

i heard richard gere tried something like that once...

 

Take your cat off, remove PS belt, and learn how to drive. That should pretty much do it 1/4mi wise.

 

Get a Z06!

 

run a 60 shot single fogger..

 

Sell the car before you wreck it.
Then again, we need more spares ....

 

hell's yeah!!

 

Park an E46 M3 next to your R. When it comes time to race, take the Bimmer, youll hand him his ***.
