Re:FEAR THE DOMESTIC POWER!!!!
2003 corvette coupe
350hp @ 5600rpm 0 - 60 4.9 1/4mile 13.4 / 101.1 Integra Type R 1996 187hp @ 8000rpm (B18C) 0 - 60 6.2 1/4mile 15 something?? which is better 187hp at 8000 rpm or 350hp at 5600rpm? |
Re:FEAR THE DOMESTIC POWER!!!!
V8 VS I4? I would rather have less insurance and save gas with the I4. Screw the vett. I could build the Integra to go 2 times faster than the vett for the price the vett costs. Stupid American cars;)

Re:FEAR THE DOMESTIC POWER!!!!
i pay the same amount of insurance on my crx as i would on a c5 corvette... they are in the same class "sports car"
going 2x faster than 13sec is impossible. the vette is a far superior car in all respects except gas mileage. out accelerates, out handles, out brakes. everything. much more po in the ls1 engine too lol anyways they aren't really comparable an integra and a corvette. but you can compare a NSX to a corvette. since an NSX is supposed to be the honda/acura sports car. and the vette wins hands down in every aspect. |

Re:FEAR THE DOMESTIC POWER!!!!
stock c5 corvette is 12.45 quatermile
the only way to judge is a type or model of a car is fast is by the stock numbers. ANY CAR CAN BE MADE FAST. VW bugs can be made to run 9s. if you spent all the money on a integra to make it faster than a c5 corvette in the 1/4 mile it wouldn't be a street car anymore. it would take a big turbine/big shot of nos to make it run 12s. and a totally built engine vettes are total street cars, and out perform ANY other car in all competitions done by independant sources. everyyear the lingenfelter (spelling) twin turbo corvette wins the horsepower challange. beats every car that tried to challange it. but last year the twin turbo autoauthority porsche came close. |
Re:FEAR THE DOMESTIC POWER!!!!
But you are putting way too much money to it. The only way you can fairly compare the Integra and the corvette is by the money you spend on it. Sure you can blow $130k on a corvette and make it beat everything but then it’s a racecar too. The hype of the corvette is crap and I do no respect it for what the car is. You spend $50 on a vett and ill spend $50k on an Integra and well see who comes out on top. Put your money where your mouth is. And no, the Civic that raced the C5 has no NOS and is a daily driver.

Re:FEAR THE DOMESTIC POWER!!!!
Do you watch the jgtc, ---- dude the ------ nsx owns its the ultimate chassi. The only thing it may be is underpowered but then again its one of the most effecient v6's ever concieved. But, news is that the v8 will come sooner or later and will reportedly be similar in design to twin f20c's mmm 500hp at 9k sounds good to me
