my best friend is getting rid of his b16a crx right now. he has intake and exhaust on it. off the line my torque gets me about half a car length ahead of him but after that he is out, and he is using a b18 tranny longer gears, if he had a b16 tranny he would smoke me even worse. i have intake wires and exhaust. if you are racing a b16 crx you WILL lose. i promise. unless he doesnt know how to drive...

let me start u are completly right, i agree with u, but i didn't say i won, i lost, i just didn't loose by much, which surprised the f*ck outta me. i was going into thinking i would be smoked, everyone was surprised actually and the race went like this I had a MASSIVE jump start i was like 2 car lengths in front of him he hits second catches up his nose is where my door handle is we hit third around the same time, at this point i'm where his door handle is and pretty much stay there, the race ends with me at about his rear tire. now i don't know how it happened, but thats what happened, if u don't believe me or any one else does whatever no biggie. i'll i'm saying is that i just thought i would be OWNED and i wasn't so, i'm telling who ever started this post to give it a try, u never know. and i don't personally think he was a ****ty driver, i just think he might of had a bad start, i had a 100% golden start it was a amazing. oh ya and i just replaced my clutch the day before, that helped alot, makes a big diff. but it was the most fun i've had in a long time, and my take on racing is if it's a good race i don't mind loosing. I thought it was a good race, and he was a really cool guy. my two cents. |

I think you've got to consider the distance of the race, too. If it's stoplight to stoplight, the Si wouldn't win by as much, but in an 1/8 or 1/4 mile, it would probably leave us way behind.

thanks alot for the comments.. Im getting a new stage 2 clutch, and some custom made headers... I talked to the guy with the CRX and we are still going to race.. Mostly for fun. Might as well... It'll be fun either way.
I figured from the begining that it wouldnt be much of a race being that its a light ass CRX and all, but i really just wanted to know how close it would be. NOT just be told i was going to lose... O and note: I used to have a Civic and a CRX. I know they didnt come stock with the DOHCVtec... Thats for whom ever it was that said that, thinking i had no idea what i was talking about. -------------------- ![]() |

It depends on the type of Civic and CRX. Although highly unlikely to find one imported into the US, the CRX siR came with the DOHC VTEC B16A. '99-'00 USDM Civic SIs also came with the DOHC VTEC B16A. ![]() -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

ok im not trying to be a dick or anything, but i just thought i should clarify that there is no b16c3/5. there is only b16a/a1/a2/a3/a4/b. i think you are talking about the b18c5, but there is no c3. the b18c5 is from the type r. |
