I went out in my mates Integra SiR, i forgot what engine he said it has because he was spouted off all this honda talk whilst i was trying to hold on for dear life says its around 190bhp?

It went fookin well either way nice sharp brakes, had some kind of sus kit and shocks on it so it cornered well aswell, nice motor

 

great cars, sound well too

 

Oh yeah he said its basically a type r engine but with different cam profiles or something or other

Come on honda folks i know theres a few on here

 

I loved my Civic type R when I had it

 

I think there a b18c1 which is basically a 1.8 170bhp motor which are also in the civic vti estates and 5 door hatch's. As for saying it's basically a type-r engine he's talking bollox the only thing that it share's with a type-r engine is that there both 1.8's lol

 

Well it may not be totally standard engine wise as he said its around 190brake, hes not the type to bull shit and the car is standard on the outside, non of this chav bollocks hes not into that(good man)

Heres a youtube link he sent me just now

His car is on the second run so you dont need to watch all 3mins

Car hes against is a turbo so he didnt do too bad against it

 

good motors.

to good 190bhp out of a b18c4/1 requires some canny work. has he got cams in it?

i had a civic with a JDM ITR B18c engine in which was awesome

 

Looked like a nice car, JDM front as well. Much nicer than the normal ones with the nasty round headlights...

The b18c5 which is the type-r motor makes 187bhp standard and is totally different from the other b18c motor's. So to get 190bhp from 1 i'm gessing he would be needing at least cam's and head work plus the obviouse breathing mods.

 

cheers for the info lads

ill ask the chap when i next see him on msn

 

yer, thats what i was saying, he would probably need cams to get 190 out of the b18c1 motor in the sir

 

I own a CTR, to be honest i like it but it is NO substitute for the feel of boost coming on

But does blow up less than my old fords

 

By the way his car is the red teggy on the second one, should have said that in the other post

This isnt a WOW OH MY GOD i want a vtech post, just saying nippy cars these and i was impressed, first ride in one

 

matts1

The problem with the way the civic feel's when it come's on the vtec is that there better off vtec than the older b series so the jump in power doent feel as agressive. I found the civis boaring and think the dc2 integra is far better as a drivers car.

 

You want to try towing a caravan with one, bloody useless piece of crap!!
tabetha

 

you wouldnt buy one to a caravan if you had one tho! youd buy one to rev to 9k in every gear! my mates just finished his civic vti, thor racing mapped it revs to 10k! sounds awsome!!

 

any vids?

 

no but il txt him to see if he has any or get him to get one

 

V-tec's are poo. Sorry has to be said.

Friend of mine has one. When it 'kicks in' it just makes a louder noise!

 

And a RST is so fucking good aint it

 

eerrrrrrrr yeah. Honda that sounds like a bee or Escort with a T34 What would you rather

 

as above i never said they were better than a turbo car, when you drive a 1.8 zetec escort and get into one of them it feels abit nippy

 

Yeah i know what your saying, but v-tecs in general are whack

 

v techs certainly have no torque, don't like the constant rev the balls stuff myself, but some do like it, ace engineering though.
I towed a caravan 120 miles with a v tech, never again!!
tabetha
ps YES putting a towbar on cossie!!

I would rather have the car that does a low 14s 1/4 as standard, voted best ever FWD handling car ever made. Will still make standard power after 109k miles and take a pasting after pasting on track.

So do tell me whats so fucking good about an RST? Seeing as a CRX was making more power Nasp from a 1.6 than an RST did with a turbo.

 

RS Turbo:

Better Looks

Better Feel

Better Interior

Better Experience

Has a Turbo

Easy to work on


Anyway, i dont ant to start an argument about these wank hondas.

But if your such a closet honda lover, why you got a cossie and not a Civic Type-R?

 

i used to work at honda in exeter driving all kinds of honda from garage to garage i had some fun in the the accord type r flat out and one early civic type r but most honda are boring.yes they rev and rev but they are still granny carriers

 

When did i ever mention a Civic or a Cossie? I am not a 'Closet' Honda lover, it just piss's me off when people cant admit what is a very good car.

You have obviously never driven an Integra and everyone can see this from your reply. Oh and i have owned one whats why i can comment, i have also been in plenty of RST over the years.

 

i did the only good thing was the seats

 

Oh im so sorry

 

LOL

 

Billy_RST



What you lited is just an opinion of what you prefer and not whats better ie looks better etc. The fact is in 1990 honda were getting 150bhp out of a 1.6 n/a engine that could do 300k miles easy and still be reliable, they had 2 piece drive shafts as standard, leather seats and a hell of a lot more modern interior that a series2 or a fiesta turbo.


eerrrrrrrr yeah. Honda that sounds like a bee or Escort with a T34 What would you rather


Put a t34 o a 1.6 vtec and then compare the 2. Have you ever owned a honda vtec?

 

You'd need to do do that to compare the two, the honda may have more power but still slow as fuck. They just sound like there moving. And no, i wouldn't waste money on a V-Tec. JAP CRAP


P.S Your avatar proves your an idiot

 

Oh and just realised your un funny picture dosent make sense.

The horse aint wearing blinkers. (Which i think your trying to get at)

Its wear eye protectiors to stop it getting a lance in the eye during jousting.


Idiot

 

Billy_RST

Do you genuinly believe a standard rst is quicker than a standard crx i-vt?

I would hardly saying tuning a vtec honda a waste of money especially in comparison to tuning an rst. It sounds like you obviously havent had anything to do with any tuned hondas at all cause if you did you would realise that for 10k you could have a 11's 500bhp crx.

 

Billy_RST

There blinkers bell end look closely there fully covered at the sides and just mesh at the fronts. Horse's eyes are on the sides of there heads and not on the front like ours you know?

 

V-tec YO.....

Why do people say that?

also...

JDM YO...

 

Alps Pacino

Ok mate. Whatever you say

 

vroooom ptssssh


Cause there either daft yanks or are trying to be like the dafy yanks lol, Its like the word stock which they all use in the honda scene
