Hondas piss me off, i have in the past had trouble beating some of these buggers and yet they can pay 5k for a VTEC and i pay 15k for my R34 and they are nearly if not gruntier, i know they have the power to weight factor on there side but still come on......... what do you think?

what type of honda are we talking about buddy

my brother drives a civis vtir and its slow as

my sister drives an accord vtir and its slow as

my aunty drives a integra type r and its ok

but u should be beating them in your 34 (im assuming its turbo) sorry just saw u r not turbo even still u should be beating civic and accord vtecs

now an s2000 thats a quick piece of machinery with like 175kw so i could understand them beating u anything alse but and i think it comes down to driver skill

^^hairdresser2000? no thanks.

ur gettn beaten by honda vtecs cause ur in heavier slower car. simple.

hi i didnt say i was getting beaten everytime, my skill is quite sufficent as my first car when i was 15 was a 351 xr falcon 67 and i have driven many a old school and quite a few modern japs, the point is that for the money you pay and the rep of the skyline i would assume that some 94 integras that are worth a smidging of the price are just as quick, maybe the Vtec is more supperior then the VCT the skylines have?

Yea you could say its heavier and slower... my mate had a 180sx with just the simple mods.. boost fmic and that but he was beaten by an integra type R... my suggestion to my friend being beaten is that he's a shit driver cos the 180 is just as light as the type R and he's got turbo...

Maybe STLKHR's R34 is auto and bone stock???

haha well yes it is a tiptronic but hey i get as quick or quicker gear changers then some, also it is realivty stock at the mo, but still out of the factory for both cars it would seem the Honda is still quicker. my one is a non turbo but i still got alot of torque !

a dc2r will run to 100 in 6.2 sec.......and in now way is that slow.

uve got a non turbo auto skyline. 'skyline rep' as u put it, is based on the turbo manuals, espeically th GTR's.

yes i agree but im stating that how can nissan charge a hell of a lot more money then honda for there cars, and yes i know one reason is that nissan is BETTER haha

Back when i had my 180 (sr20det, cat back exhaust, airfilter, 8psi) i had a dc2r with an exhaust keep up with me

The type r are pretty quick, they had no trouble beating stock 200sx/skylines etc

Once we do a few mods and wind up the boost they cant keep up but for what they are out of the box its fantastic

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
