ive raced one of these set ups and won. I am wondering if the other set up would be faster...what you guys think would be faster?

a gutted cx92-95 hatch on slipstreams/azenis with a b18c with itr cams with open header......................or a
92-95cx with a first gen b16 jdm itr header, itr intake manifold, ctr cams, ctr pistons, and type r tranny on 15inch honda si rims/azenis that is not gutted?


99dx coupe
179.44whp w/ A/C
130tq
14.08@98mph with a 2.2 60ft street tires
13.49@97mph with a 1.8 60ft on slicks

 

i'd say the gutted hatch...but not by much

 

anyone else?......i was thinking the b16 hatch would be faster because it has more mods....oh yeah the b16 has cam gears too. Ive beaten the b18c hatch just barely though. it was at the track...he was catching me on top end.....his car was faster but my car was quicker through the traps.

 

Which driver has more skill? Are both cars running strong? Is either having a clutch problem? There's too many factors to consider, they'll be close, that should be a sufficient answer.

 

too many factors, the gearing in the b16 is better so it would help and with all the mods it should be quicker but gutting the car.... If you are planning on betting for a race, I would be willing to bet the b16 knows something the GSR dont ya know

 

well im just saying hypothetically if both drivers were equal and both engine were equal with everything working fine.

 

Tuned or Untuned?

 

Sounds like way too much **** to take into consideration.

 

i have a similiar setup to the b16 in my 92 si..........full leather interior and stereo wich consists of one 4 channel amp, my car hit 14.1@98mph........my buddy has a 92 si also, it had a jg victor manifold on it.....and a b16 tranny.......he hit a 14.2 with 5 lug........and full leather also......so it's kinda a toss up, i'd leave it to the driver

 

this car is a cx....im not shure if he has the pistons for shure or the type r tranny ....but i guess he was ran 14.5's i would think he would be faster than that with pistons and a tranny dont you think? I also heard the head was p/p but then i heard that was just bullshit so i dont think this guy is too credable
Your supposed to lie and say you dont have stuff when you really do have the stuff not the other way around

 

it would be a good race and i think the better driver would come out on top

 

when he was runnin 14.5's what was his trap speed...that will tell u if his car was makin some good HP...but my guess i will say the gutted hatch wit the b18 in it will be the faster one...if its light and open header u should be able to go 13's...i dont see y not...on street tires

 

oh yea and it has itr cams...that hatch should definitely be the faster one in my opinion..thats an easy 13.7-13.8 car

 

The civic HB wet the B18C1 ITR cam's will spank. 180WHP High 13sec

B16A ITR tranny, ITR I.M. CTR piston and CTR cam's 170+Whp low 14sec
But good Race the b16A is still a 1.6L

It's a drivers race.


There is no such thing as a race with identical driver skill etc... When two cars have very similar power to weight ratios, driver skill will be the deciding factor.

 

well i beat the gutted cx hatch with a b18c with ctr cams....just barely i went through the traps quicker but he was faster with his higher trap speed....our 60ft times were identical....im about to race this b16hatch with the stuff i meantioned so wasnt shure what the outcome would be
