Went back to the strip a couple of days ago.
Here's my new time:

Left Lane...
65 degrees
Low humidity
32' above sealevel

For all of the people who are just tuning in:
95 Civic EX
No AC or PS, stripped of all soundeadening
96 LS motor and tranny
Stock intake and header
2.25" custom exhaust
15" Slipstreams on 195/50/15 Kumhos set at 22psi front/ 44psi rear
Horrible camber...

Stripped this stuff out before i went:
Rear seats and plastics
Passengerside seat
Rear strutbar
Seatbelts (except driverside)
Spare tire, etc.
Front and rear bumper supports
Rear bumper cover (wind resistance)

I'd like to get some feedback from others with similar setups...

TIA

 

good time, what track was that.

 

Nice 60'. Ever weigh your car? I ran a 14.96 with 2.2 60' weighing about 2250 with driver...basically the same setup.

Atco raceway...

 

excellent time

 

No, haven't gotten the chance yet...

Nice... Was that in a Delsol...? What was the exact setup...?

 

That was actually in my hatch. I had a 94 LS motor/tranny, custom 2 1/4" piping, catco cat, cheapo muffler, DC Header, 16" ADR Reactions, GC coilovers, negative camber, gutted rear.

 

this is a dumb ?, but what does negative camber help or harm in the 1320?

 

Harm, You are not getting the full contact patch of your tires on the ground. So, basically it leads to less traction...

Oh yeah, it's not a dumb question...

Negative camber sucks. I had a camber kit just never put it on.

 

Yes, that is one thing i have to invest in. I was going to go with the Skunk2 kit, but that is not looking so good nowadays...

 

Back to the original question...

 

Hey JV
I heard there was a sick white hatchback there my friend went i had black wheels and stuff?....Did you see it I want it!!!.....

 

JV and atco are like best friends . . .
but i never get to see him there . . .
one day . . . one day . . .

 

JV, my 94 EX weighed in at 2460 with out me with full interior. I'd say you're around 2350 without you in it.

 

Damn, you're good. I estimated it to be about 2360lbs in a post awhile ago...

It's too bad i'm such a fat azz (200lbs)...

 

WoW, thats a prettty good time mang My best all motor was 15.6@87 with a 2.2 60' (weight is 2360 with me in it) What kind of tires you got??? I also have the dinky 97dx exhaust piping from the cat back. Smaller than stock . I will be running it real soon again with the custom 2.5 exhaust and see how much difference it make

 

nice 60ft time!

 

What is your exact setup...? What kind of times are you getting on the bottle...?

I have Kumho 712's...

 

JV.....can u type the time, the slip ain't showing up.
also are u happy with your setup?
I'm planning a similar one and would like to hear your thoughts
Kevin

 

I don't know why they're not showing, but here you go...

60' 2.174
330 6.257
1/8 9.679
990 12.525
1/4 15.091
MPH 90.70

 

Those are some good times especially with the LS transmission.

 

Am i happy with it...? I would have to say no... Was it affordable...? Yes. Will i be happy with it...? Eventually.

The B18B in an EX coupe is about the same as having stock Integra LS. I have a friend who is running only 2 tenths behind me with a "stripped" LS...

This motor in a lighter chassis would kick azz... But IMHO, this car is not going to be much fun until i boost it...

 

Funny I was at Engkishtown on sat, I have an ls too in a 94 cx I ran a 14.9 with hx rims on falken azenis. Good time!

 

14.9 huh. Were you losing traction...? What did your slips look like...? What's your setup...?
