did they ride in it clean up to 90mph? cause ko3 1.8ts fall flat on their face after 50mph. a GSR motor will still pull pretty strong till 90mph for the 1/4.

VTAK YO!!!!
Hmmmm.....

VTAK = Very large Tach Also in Kilometers

well the guy tht drove my car is the owner/driver of the GSR, and i think he would know his car good enough to be able to tell if another car is faster than his own when driving it....

we were going 91ish past a pre-measured 1/4mile mark on my road...only a couple feet longer than a 1/4mile..from a dig with launch and everything...but remember its on 14psi.....and mine def doesn not fall flat on its face after 50mph...it pulls strong.
the speed you reach in a quarter mile dosnt really mena all that much

thats not really funny.... it's more of smart. the type r tranny has closer gearing better for all motor setups

Feels more like ~45 to me. Off-the-line acceleration is really clean and quick, but then the turbo quits doing what it was made to do. It definitely doesn't like to be pushed.

i wouldn't say it falls on its face at 45(maybe if your in second gear) the k03 pulls strong at 80 it just depends on the rpms your sitting at

ha...well i can drive...but my buddy has a GSR civic...(dont flame...) that runs 15.2 and him and another guy think my car is faster when they rode with me, and one drove it...
The only way to settle that argument is to race his ***, then swap cars to make sure it wasn't the driver that sucks.
My money is on the civic, sorry dude. [8D]He will pass you at around 60-70mph.
