I have 02 blacl ep, 6k miles, intake off ls integra and a testpipe... 15.2@89 with garabe tires... I figure with all the work your friend has ill be low 14's. But that is a strong run for a heavier car. What was the mph?

Civic Si: 2744
Base RSX: 2694 lbs

However, the Civic Si has shorter gear ratios.

Well I can't say it has been confirmed yet, but many people have been weighing their stock Si at ~2650 pounds (rougly 100lbs less than what Honda says)...don't know if base/S RSX owners are finding similar differences, but thought it was worth mentioning in this argument over weight.

Yes, I've heard that. I'd like to know what mine weighs since the coilovers and intake have shed a few lbs. Not to mention the ~30lb spare tire!

Well I was not aware, that the base model rsx weighed less, according to HOnda. I weighed mine and i got about 2650 also... So i was wrong, but Honda is off too. Still think im moving pretty good...

You can't be serious. 100 pounds for two small inserts in the passenger cabin??? Honda itself has quoted the difference at 8 pounds. SRS equipped Si weighs 2752 lbs. 2744 is for Si w/o SRS. Have you seen the side airbags??? Just looking at it is enough to know they don't weigh 50 lbs a piece. I don't mean to flame, but that is just misinformation at its finest.
