Yeah I just joined RSX forums clubrsx last night to do some research .. Like what everyone said, I guess they can be made pretty fast if you tune it right and invest a lot of money and time. don't forget effort.. anyways, my friend said that the guy with the rsx wanted to do a couple runs against me.. even if hes turbo'd or supercharged, I'm pretty sure I shouldn't have a problem since I'm running a tune. Damn wait a sec... I forgot he has v-tech.......

Just race him already. So he has TELEPHONE??
v-tech = company that makes phones.
vtec = smoke your 335i

Yo, you want to explain your definition of troll?!?

I have a BMW and I post on M3post/E90post forum and you call me a troll?

Definition of a troll: "a troll is someone who intentionally posts derogatory or otherwise inflammatory messages about sensitive topics with the intention of provoking arguments"....in your case always about the 335.

Example:
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=136306

any chance you get to attack the 335, due to you own insecurities

so, you are a troll!

Really. That is your def. of a troll.
Anyway, I was not trying to attack any 335s, in fact my wife has an E90 335i and I love that car. I just don't like some of 335i owners bashing about the new M3 thats all. Either your too sensitivity OR I can't express myself well. But your no better, bashing others call "v-tech". Call me a troll all you want, it really don't bother me since I know your def. of a troll is.

wtf? you should have just left it at....

Idiot.. I just lost all the little respect I had for you're ignorant posts, of course we are going to bash on other cars, THIS IS A BMW FORUM go on your m3forum and type in 'm3 vs' in the search box for me, you'd probably get a page of hits relating to the IS-F, MB AMG, etc etc, click on one of those, you will see people bashing other cars, why? BECAUSE ITS A BMW FORUM, M3 TO BE EXACT Don't get me wrong, I'm not calling you a troll, I'm calling you an idiot..

-END RANT.

lol, personal attack? I didn't really attack you, I was just answering your question on why we were bashing on vtech, and plus who said we were bashing? last time I checked, everyone was awed by it.. by all means, I respect the M badge and I wish I could afford one, but it just irratates me when people make/ state an argument that doesnt make sense or they can't back up.. that seems to be the problem with our world today......... W/E back on topic.

So, Peter, are you going to ask your "v-tech" buddy to join us at the drag strip next time, or what?

...and tell him not to bring too much "rice" with him

Yeah, if I can get a hold of him.. I have to ask my friend to ask the dude if he wants to come out and play, I really wouldn't mind, I love all cars except the freakin civics with their fart cans, I don't understand how so much noise can come out of those little things, ... but anyways, we should just put together a freakin PNW drag day.

Next Friday looks pretty good. Only 20% chance of raining, as of right now.

We should plan on that.

Damn, I should have went today and look at the high school girls cheering for their fellow ricers running 15's.

Maybe I could have came home with one.

[DANMACINSD]

Dude I wouldn't sweat it, I had the 06 civic si with the comptech, it only put out 235hp, and the torque...well I am embarassed to say. The do put a lot of K24 swaps in cars like that though. I think bone stock a K24 is good for 230 hp. Contrary to what someone wrote, I thought they had very little torque as well, but I could be wrong. I have never heard of a 2.5 l swap though..can't imagine what it would be, unless he punched out a K24.

invite him to a track.

[omg516]

The dc5 can be made to be quite a track car also. I have both the rsx-s and a 335 and the rsx doesn't really stand a chance stock. But if he seriously does have a k24 block or some type of FI I wouldn't underestimate him, especially if your 335 is stock.

+1. I've owned 2 hondas in the past. @ of them which ran B18c's GSR and Type R and that alone was a strong little motor. The K24 on the other hand is a bit beefier. So slap a couple of bolts ons and k-pro and your in the low to mid 13's already.

I wouldnt say he will "smoke" 335I, but would be close or even faster.
Some of nicely modded RSX's are quick.

interesting post. sorry i didn't see it sooner...


I've had 3 Acura's including an 05 RSX type S and I'm a regular on Acurazine (the e90post for Acuras if you don't know).

k24's arent as tuneable engines as most think, they have problems cracking a lot of the engine software that honda has put in the cars the last few years. to this point, unless it's pre '06, the k24's aren't any better than the k20's stock, but the k20's respond better to ecu piggybacks such as the kpro from hondata which makes tuning NA or turbo much more effective.

if this guy wanted to... he could easily get 300hp from a kpro and the right turbo set up. He could also get about 285hp from a grand am stage 3 package from Hytech like they are doing for the TSX's of intake/ecu/exhaust combo (which runs about $10k). However, it is doubtful he'd smoke you since you can get turbo software for what like $500 to bump it to 350hp.

fact is no matter how many like the v-tec or i v-tec... you can't make up for the extra displacement and 2 cylinders of the I-6 in the bmw's. my 328xi has put a few rsx's, tsx's and TL's down since I've gotten her.

This guy really had to have spent like $30 grand on a car that only stickered for $27k to make it up to like 350+hp.
I will say though... its a hell of a lot of fun bringing that car up to redline at 8300 rpms!


edit: weight could play a factor though... totally forgot about that

[NaTuReB0Y]

v-tec hands down...........
