Turbo M3 Vs. Civic M3

[RJ's325ITS]

Not my car again... My friend's car.

Honda:
Single cam engine, turbo running 9 psi
with a passenger and some baggage

M3:
Same set-up as the old video.

In the second pull the M3 backfires pretty sweet :cheers:

Rafa,

Read above


^ I was thinking the same thing:lmfao:

A 1900lb car with such a good potential, that is why I drove my car and shot the video chasing them...


VIDEOS ARE UP TOP NOW

What a murder...........

[jadakid88]

word
What a murder...........

[ls-r teg]

that wasnt even fair :(

[boosted_nonv]

damn:eek: murdered

[blackshine007]

I spoke to the guy in the civic. He didn't try :ninja:

[Vteckidd]

9PSI is prob 200-220whp TOPS compared to a what....350whp M3 lol

M3 prob makes tons more TQ too.

That civic is a 13 second car at best

[quicksylver]

dude on the civic claimed over 300hp, and his car probbaly weighs nearly half of mine, it was gutted to hell and back and i was sitting on full interior. wasnt picking on anybody, just wanted to race since it was the usual bunch of people standing around. and why would you wanna race if you weren't gonna try.

[blackshine007]

^^You told me that you had the a/c on with the cruise set.... is that true?

[KDM>JDM]

over 300hp?? wow someone lied to him

[quicksylver]

over 300hp?? wow someone lied to him

thats what he told me when I asked what he was putting down, thats why i figured he might put up a bit more of a fight.

Mike what would a hatch like the one on the video weight when fully gutted??

I thought these cars would be well under the 2000lb mark!! :thinking:

[KDM>JDM]

i know a guy with a pretty much fully gutted eg hatch that weighed right at 2000lbs

[RJ's325ITS]

i know a guy with a pretty much fully gutted eg hatch that weighed right at 2000lbs

no way, from factory curb weight is 2107 to 2275lbs depends were you find the info.

I thought those cars with no A/C, heater, interior, radio etc... were under the 1900lbs

A BMW's curb weight is 3250lbs, and fully gutted could get to 2400lbs, race prepared 2800lb; so your friend only took off 200lbs????

[Vteckidd]

I meant no disrespect I just know that's a kill and a half no matter what lol.

He prob weighs around 2000lbs wihtout him in it. They are light but not sub 2000lbs light. I'd be amazed if it weighed under 2000

no way he makes 300 on 9psi unless it's a 57trim and even then his powerband would be like 1000rpms

in any case he didn't move like 300whp Honda it moved like 200whp

[Vteckidd]

Rafa most of them never came with ac anyways an even then most or the plastic pieces weigh nothing. Add weight back in with the turbo kit too and it's pretty marginal loss at most

[KDM>JDM]

the guy i know has no a/c, heater, carpet, no rear seat, manual windows an door locks an it weighed a like 2050 without him in it

[quicksylver]

I know it wasnt a really fair race, it wasnt even close, I just wanted to race and he agreed. I thought it would be a little closer because of his "power" and weight..otherwise it would've been the usual bunch of people just standing around which is fine, but every once in while a little action is good too.

id like to run you, mine should beat taht turbo D series, and i have quite a bit more RPM than him.

Rafa remembers my old CRX, hes good peeps :)

[ueyedgr8tness]

hold up was this kid latino that had that hatch?

[-S Double C-]

That civic might make 200whp tops and as mike said its not under 2000lbs and i bet a thousand it doesnt make over 180 trq. Come down here to columbus and try some real honda's

[ueyedgr8tness]

OMG!! get out of here that is my boy car and he is making like 206 also his weight is around 2500 with him in it so i have no idea where u got the facts raf but that kid is running my motor so i do no what i am talking about:)

[UpSideDownDesi]

lol rafa or his friend....y'all should hand out a tube of lube before runs, followed by "just saying" haha.

That m3 is moving, and i can only imagine it running on tune it's meant to be running.

[ueyedgr8tness]

^ ur correct he should handout lube if he intends to keep running the young horses.I don't even see why this race happen considering the car was only missing carpet and backseats but then again the turbo kit puts all the weight right back in it and is a 300+m3 racing a 206 whp civic that much to brag about? come on guy's keep it real otherwise i will have to put u on the same page as thacker.

[importking73]

DUDE WITH THE BLACK M3 IS CRAZY!!! I WAS CHILLIN N THE GUY THAT OWNS THE GREEN M3 ASKED IF I WANTED TO RUN THE BLACK M3 N I SAID YEA!! THE GUY IN THE BLACK M3 ASKED MY PSI I TOLD HIM 9 PSI N I TOLD HIM I WAS DOIN 206 CUZ I WAS RUNNIN WASTE GATE BOOST N I CANT BOOST HIGHER THAN 11 POUNDS CUZ I HAVE A STOCK MAP SENSOR!! N HE SAID BUT U WEIGH ALOT LESS THAN ME!! I DONT KNOW HOW MUCH THOSE M3'S WEIGH BUT I DIDNT SAY ANYTHING I AGREED TO RUN SO WE DID A 45 MILE ROLL N HE GOT ME!! BAD!! A LOSS IS A LOSS!! AS FOR MAJOR WEIGHT REDUCTION I WAS MISSING MY BACK SEATS N MY DOOR PANELS! THE ONLY REASON CUZ I BROKE MY WINDOW ROLLER UPPERS! N DATS IT!!! ALL OTHER PANELS WERE IN I HAD A BOX OF OIL, A SINGLE CAM MANIFOLD AND........AND A PASSENGER WITH ME!! I DUNNO WHAT KIND OF MAJOR WEIGHT REDUCTION THAT IS!!!! U FAIL!!!!

[ueyedgr8tness]

Like i said i have no idea why this race even took place also ^ need to run mike the same night i do.

[Vteckidd]

I know Rafa and he wouldnt handicap his car or his friends car. His people are really honest and straight up, but they arent honda guys either.

Im sure it was a simple misunderstanding, and hes not talking trash about winning hes just showing how fast that M3 was.

Dude we didn't pull a gun to your boys head.... I politely drove by and ask him if he wanted to race the BMW, he ask me a couple questions and said yes....

Then my friend also talk to him before the race....

To us it was just a race nothing big nothing to dread about, it's just a race so let it go, like many others...

This the math I did in my head and I thought it was going to be a close race

M3 w/driver: 3440lbs / 380whp = 9lbs/hp
EG w/driver: 2250lbs / 280whp = 8lbs/hp

This is why I didn't ride in the M3 coz in theory we were under. In reality the numbers were off.

At 2500lbs / 206whp = 12.13lbs/hp

upss my bad..:(

[ueyedgr8tness]

^ i no mike raf is a pretty standup guy because i have ran him before with my old bike.But i just thought it was kinda of funny how he would post a vid up of a race on yourtube where all the specs was wrong and the civic is not making no where near what the bimmer is.Not to mention the raf i no from back in the day would have said it wasn't worth the gas to burn.The only thing i see twisted in the thread is the facts being so far off that it wasn't even worth posting thats about it other than that the m3 is pretty damn quick:)

I will fix the info on the videos, I dont want to misinform ppl either if you want I add a comment "with some extra weight"

[RJ's325ITS]

I dont know if you guys think of 2 things:

#1. we gather to have fun; some standing around talking a lot of BS (nothing wrong w/that) but some other like to have some action. my ideology is: If I want to race I race on my roller blades, if you want to race me a race you in whatever I'm driving. Ppl from back in the day know that I was the first one to hit it and the last one to leave.

#2. I you start doing selecting racing then you are going to pass as a stock up, people will say "he thinks he better than me, coz he drives a bimmer", or if you try to ask what their set is you get nothing, or you get a bunch of BS. So it's all about taking a knowledgeable guess... Popping the question... waiting for an answer.... and viola you either have a race or have to stand around and get your high schools stories ready, coz it's going to be a long night

[Vteckidd]

Rafa just likes the competition. he never starts drama, hes just there to run his car.

God i miss the good old days.

:goodjob:truth we need a rematch thoe with my old bike if i can get it off my brother sometime:)

[quicksylver]

damn, lots of drama over a simple race...I wasnt trying to pick on anybody, noone else wanted to race, talked to this one guy, he told me what he had, i told him what i had, we ran, end of story. it was just for fun. I am sure I'm gonna get my ass handed to me by someone out there, but i take my losses just as good as i take my wins. it was all just for fun.

[ATL_e92]

bullshit!!! oh and that was beautiful seeing that e36 tail lights get smal!!!!!!!!!

[importking73]

Im like that too!! I'll run anybody no matter what it is!! I'd rather run than sit around not doin anything thats why i agreed to the race since i couldnt race at moreland or air cargo just wanted a lil action....no homo....I just wanted to straighten out the facts of what my car had but with that being said im say that M3 IS A BEAST!! Good run bro!!

wow that m3 is fast

[b0ki]

WOW... this M3 is fast... must be the one built by SOLO MOTORSPORTS :)

[02SloWrx]

buhahahhahahahahah where is the fucking race. man that m3 is fucking nuts.

[Lankhoss]

WOW... this M3 is fast... must be the one built by SOLO MOTORSPORTS :)

Is this the same car I ran that one night after the Sonic meet?

If not, did that guy ever get his car running right?

I was gonna see if this M3 wanted to run me, but if it's really only making 380whp I don't think it'd be a fair race.

[RJ's325ITS]

Is this the same car I ran that one night after the Sonic meet?.

we can once we get the EBC sorted out, car is running low boost so not worth ur time yet..

dunno if this is the same car, but this car had so many building issues until I came in. Such as pressurizing the crank case, AFPR not working, A/R way off target, CEL on at all times.

Now car is sorted it out after the owner and I found the problems. Also big thanks to TRM (http://www.racersmarket.net/) for the new base tune.
