hey i wondering if my celica is fast enough to beat a civic my celica has an short ram intake and a exhaust, and if the civic had the same thing (any kind of civic) would it be a even race?

For what it is worth I managed to beat a Integra in a motorway drag in my Celica (3sfe with exhaust and filter) he did have a couple more people on board (3 vs my 1) but damn the integras just dont look as cool.

what's worse is when people mistakenly call our cars an integra!

anyway, I was on the freeway today, everybody was driving real slow (like 60) in all lanes and I was getting pissed, so I finally was able to get ahead of everyone so I just pushed that pedal down, a couple seconds later I'm going about 90 when this red integra is coming up on me fast, he changes lanes and zooms past me at at least 110... so there is power to be had in a civic/integra, but stock for stock I think a celica would beat a civic (ST beating a DX, and GT beating an EX or SI) however, as this integra passed me, I caught a glimpse of his altezza taillights and I couldn't help but chuckle.

now here's one for you, who'd win, a GT celica w/ injen intake (manual) or a bone stock mitsubishi lancer ES (auto). my thoughts are Celica=135 hp in 2400 lbs. and lancer=120 hp in 2600 lbs. but what do you think? this guy I work with just got a lancer and thinks he can beat me...

Power to weight the celica hould waltz over the lancer. On another slightly unrelated note I had to laugh a while a go someone in a Mazda Astina (not sure if you have them in the US but they are a 1600cc) tried to have a go against my cousin (with myself) in his 500hp+ nissan GTR, that was funny!
