1/4 mile time
 

what is the 1/4 mile time for a stripped 88 crx si

Re:1/4 mile time
 

my 88 Si has intake exhaust header cam light flywheel centreforce clutch and short shifter does mid 15's :(

Re:1/4 mile time
 

I really don't understand this. My 90 si with stock motor and I/H/E ran a 14.9 with FULL interior and street tires here at the Kinston Drag Strip. I'll have some video's up soon of before runs and after (turbo) runs!

Re:1/4 mile time
 

well i'd love to say that i know for sure what happened with my car but the previous owner ran the car down the 1320, maybe it was his driving style? or different tires

Re:1/4 mile time
 

You talking about a stock 88 CRX si that has only been stripped? 1/4 mile times could be anything depending on who is driving and what motor you have.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

Well, i ve heard anywhere from 15.8 to 16.7. But ive never heard 14.9! I have i/h/e and hit 16.1, but i had poor 60ft times. But 14.9 is insanly fast with only i/h/e. A stripped si can run anywhere from what i said before. The fact that its stripped wont help much. Mine was stripped from the seats back.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

15.9 intake only, with holes in the exhaust, lol.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

ya i thought 14.9 w/ I/H/E was a little far fetched. mine was 15.4 with street tires on a light flywheel, intake header exhaust and a gude cam.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

my ZC Si crx whiltst N/A ran a 15.98 on street trim i/h/e w/full interior.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

i have a bet for 200 $ with some chick from my school that i will bet her 95 automatic camaro and i looked it up and found out it runs a 15.7 at 88.3 mph if i cant beat that with a stock engine im goin to run a 50 shot of nos

Re:1/4 mile time
 

well, if her car is the z28, its pretty fast. But if she only runs a 15.8, load up the nitrous, and you wil take her, just learn how to use it.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

i wanted to run nos but i have no idea how much a d16a6 can handle and if i blow my engine raceing her i dont mind no its the lowest model its automatic and a v6 i think it weights 3,800 pounds

Re:1/4 mile time
 

i wish i had a zex nos kit. man i would be fast.

but seriously, i think you could take her stock to stock.
that thing is mad heavy and being an auto and a woman driver you could probably lay a mean licken without using zex

Re:1/4 mile time
 

yea im goin to kill her punk ass

Re:1/4 mile time
 

14.9 isn't far fetched at all. It's a half second less that a mid 15.. lol. Call it a 15 flat if it makes you feel better.

Oh, and by the way... about the camaro. Get a sneaky pete nitro bottle. Or hide it in a fire extinguisher... Would work good. Don't use it in first and second gears, but only in third. I HOPE you would take her with that.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

ok cool

Re:1/4 mile time
 

dude you will beat her :)

i raped some kid in a v6 camaro, in my totally stock expect mildly ported 87 crx. i even let him get a car length ahead... i wanted to see if he was going to gun it, cause i didn't want to look like a retard if i floored it for no reason. by the end of 2nd i was already way past him.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

alright cool im gonna kill her and talk a bunch of ---- to her at school

Re:1/4 mile time
 

i know theres not much difference time wise between 15.4 and 14.9 but it takes a substancially different amount of power to get to that time.. like atleast 140 at the wheels and theres no way you can get from 108 CRANK to 140 Wheel HP from I/H/E you'd be pushing 115 Wheel HP if ur lucky

Re:1/4 mile time
 

ha, the v6 is nothing. The manual version runs a mid 16. The auto must really suck. My mother has a v6 camaro, manual, and it feels fast, but its not. I looked it up at carstats.com, and it said 16.7. So, youll probably beat her.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

my dad used to have a 87 trans am, 375 hp and about 350 to the wheels. over 345 ft/lbs of torque. the thing was a monster it ran mid to hich 13's

Re:1/4 mile time
 

why are you gna talk ---- to a girl, at least she has the balls to race you, i would get her number and hook up, unless shes fat then its another story. hee hee ;)

Re:1/4 mile time
 

haha ya do that man

Re:1/4 mile time
 

OK. I guess it depends on how good of a driver you are.
Check out www.dragtimes.com and pull up honda crx. One guy ran a 14.7 with a ZC I/H/E, and one guy with a SUPERCHARGED REX at 6psi ran like a 15.0. It has to be the driver. But I'm TELLING YOU, I ran a 14.9 on my D16A6 with I/H/E at a REAL TRACK. I will be more than happy to video it for you real soon. I'm currently working on a website where I'll have pictures of my turbo setup along with some video's of me at the track before turbo & after. My video camera is currently in Japan cause my sister is using it.. ah!

Re:1/4 mile time
 

show me the slip and i will believe you

Re:1/4 mile time
 

ya i/h/e and a turbo

Re:1/4 mile time
 

anyone have an idea of what a 90 CRX Si with a d16z6 vtec head, cold air intake, cat-back exhaust, gutted cat, short shifter and a interior stripped from the firewall back-will pull in the 1/4?

Re:1/4 mile time
 

no

lol

pay $20, take ur car to a strip and run it!! that car would run a 18 flat. With my grandmother driving it, man it depends on the driver for most part.. but dont count on 12's or 13's!

Re:1/4 mile time
 

im waiting to go to the track, but with 3 feet of snow and 20 degree temps in upstate NY there arent any open.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

It's not the driver.. There are A LOT of factors that can dictate things. A slipping clutch, tires, air temp, the tuning done with the mods that are there, track conditions, even how high above sea level you are plays a large part in how your car breathes.

So if he's in Arizona, with a supercharger at 6psi, and the goes to Montana, he's going to run faster. Same car, same driver... so, boasting about times is irrelavent.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

yea where i live...i go to the track in palmdale. there was a guy from i think idaho visiting his parents and ran his car....he did a 15.6 with his crx. but at home he does hi 14's. so you really cant compare times.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

why would he be faster in montana?...the colder air?, i always thought the air was less dense and thus worse for cars because of the altitude

Re:1/4 mile time
 

Montana is not all mountainous. :P But yes, the cooler more dense air, will contain more atoms of oxygen than expanded hot air of Arizona.. Here in Kansas City, a car running say a 15 flat, but could go a little futher south to Joplin, MO and run a 14.6 ot 14.7.. why? altitude.. Same car goes to Arizon, lower altitude, higher air temps.. probably owuld run a 15 again, or higher if it's hot.. You never know.

These inconsistant conditions throughout the country make it almost impossible to "compare" times between people. That's why I disregard people who boast "My car is faster, because I ran so an so.."

In the end it's all relative.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

i agree about the disparities of time with where a car was run, but i thought higher altitudes hurt times because the air is less dense

Re:1/4 mile time
 

For some reason or another, altitude never crossed my mind. Makes since (duh). :-\

Re:1/4 mile time
 

Ya.. that would be correct.. but only after like a certain height. I remember seeing a "chart" of a mountin with the elevations scaled up it and colored coded air densities when I was in geography in 7th grade. I wish I had that chart, it was very useful. Oh well.. but yes..

Re:1/4 mile time
 

PV=nRT
P=pressure
v=volume
n=moles
r=a constant
t=temperature

you want lots of n, that's o2 molecules in our case, the more of that you get the faster your car goes.

Re:1/4 mile time
 

did you do this more than once? what were some of your other times?
the reason i ask is because sometimes there is always that chance of the track timer error.
i know one time i went to the track with my dx turbo rex and the timer glitched and gave me a 1.6 60 foot. with no name street tires. and still a slow et.
