Default A little story...

Today I was driving down the highway and this z28 pulls up next to me.. (i got a 97 Integra LS) well i look over to see what hes doing and maybe to say whats up or something cuz he kept hovering next to me.. well I look over and hes over there laughing his *** off at my car.. Then he yells out ... Man its gotta suck to be that slow.. Alright well it was a ******** thing to do but I guess my car isnt the quicker... In a few weeks though when the turbo goes on i'll be happy to join in laughing with him Thank god for turbos!!

People like that are what push me so hard to own their *** and put them in check. KICK HIS *** for us when you get the turbo hooked up disrespecting someones car is not right

dude.... i love honda/acura...but even with the turbo..he will probably still smoke you.. stock 98-02 camaro z28'S run mid 13's stock.ls1 also respond very very well to modifications..like 25 horses from a exhaust. well good lucky anyways..but dont even try to race him from a stop.

my friend ran a 13.4 with a borla exhaust and drag radials with a 98 camaro Z28....saw the run with my own eyes, ...camaros are fast..a local GSR here runs best of 13.8 at 9 psi... just don't forget..camaros shine on the drag strip,thats what there made for. 320 horsepower stock.there is a reason these cars have 500 dollar a month insurance.5.7 liter..and you know what they say..theres no replacement for displacement.

Heh, if I had a few extra $$$ I would drop in a built B20z with MASS turbo on it. Imagine putting down 370whp @12psi in a crx that weighs 2100 lbs WITH close gears. Dropping a setup like that in a rex would be expensive, but not nearly the cost of a Z28 with high insurance. Not to mention that a rex is much more fun.

dang this is historic. a decent and truthfull conversation about an integra and a camaro.

yeah my with with stock engine and turbocharged @ 8psi will be slower than a z28 camaro, or about the same speed. around 14 flat. just like gt mustangs.

i would argue though that crx are not more fun to drive than the newer camaros. the tourqe steer of a FWD car is really annoying. and the multipal upgrades you have to make on a honda to make it safe and make it acually handle the power sucks. eg clutch & brakes. cause most hondas weren't made to go fast. so the trannies don't hold up and the brakes are just enough to be safe but could be a lot better.
also in a burly v8 you don't have to ROMP on the gas to MOVE. i feel like a dumbshit in my crx, because i have to practically floor it to get going from a stop light.

i can vouch for a z28 running low 13s. i saw a kid at PIR (porland international raceway) with a 80s IROC Z28 run 13 flat with just headers and exhaust and street tires.
