I have been here for some time and read a lot of stuff.
I must thank everyone for there help.

One question I have is about someone's type-r.
A friend of mine said that this guy ran a 14.2 in his type-R.
He removed the door panels, front seat, and back seats.
He also has an AEM and thats it!

I was very skeptical.
He also supposedly has the time slips.
Can this really be true?
I thought gutting the WHOLE inside is like 75 pounds and equivalent to shaving .1 off of quarter mile?
All thoughts are welcomed.
Thanks everyone

 

Here in Quebec(Canada) a stock Type R can run 14.45. I see the guys and the sleep time. No mods, nothing except a good driver ... yes 14.45

my boys type r runs 14.03 and all it has is apex cat-back and a carbon fiber hood. nuff said!!!

 

Yo 'G'... ma b0i runz a mad 14.227 bout stock... check diz shitz out! He be car 31.

 

are you sure that it's stock?? the mph is pretty high. that car should be a 13 second car for that mph.

 

Well you can tell by the 60ft that he is not that good of a driver LOL (no offense intended). That car should be a 13 sec car, seems like he has a lot of top end. I doubt that car is barely stock. Probably has a good set of cams on that bad boy.

Yes and the 0-60 ft are very bad for the 1/4 you have post... with 2.2 0-60 ft the car can run under 14 easily !!!

 

you read in my mind

 

I seen a bone stock itr all stripped out and gutted ran a 13.9 on slicks...yea it's possible.....but hard too believe

 

Isn't that Carlex's car? I think I remember him running a 14.2 @ 99 with AEM and suspension only?

 

i cant believe it either???maybe its a "freak"motor??? just kidding, it took a long time to learn my car...

 

I went 14.1 with an intake and rear seats/spare removed in mine.14.0 with same set up and JDM header.

THe pic above is my car. Temp was 40 degrees so you guys with criticism for the 60' time try and get traction at that temp. I had an AEM and TEIN NA's with 1/4 tank of gas and no spare. Other than that it was full inerior and the OEM hood (Have a CF hood now). THat was on RE010's at 23 psi.
