Is This Pretty Much The Norm?? [ET & Trap - 1991 Integra RS]

**phatnucca** · 05-18-05, 03:55 PM

Hey guy's... I just got a 91' Integra RS. Picked it up for $1500 and am very happy with it. I have a question however. I got it all stock, did a tune-up and oil change and cut-off the Muffler. That is the only mod done to it. I went to the track to get a baseline run of what she can do B4 I start modding. I was expecting a time of 16.0-16.5.... Little did I know this would be the best time of the night:

R/T: .403
60': 2.232
330: 6.372
1/8: 9.850
MPH: 70.65
990: 12.781
1/4: 15.434
MPH: 87.37

I got to run 6 times that night and it was pretty much consistant untill my clutch started to slip from being old and getting too hot. Here are Cliffs of the rest of the runs I had that night:

15.480@88.00( 2.265 60') 2nd best of the night.... Highest Trap
15.576@87.37( 2.288 60') Got this run on video, last run, slipping clutch
15.897@87.28( 2.455 60')

15.891@86.56( 2.418 60')

15.698@87.02( 2.297 60')

Here is the Video of my 15.5 with the most clutch slip ever...LOL. It was the last run of the night and she was heated up pretty good. You can hear it everytime I shift.

Is this normal for a basically stock 91' RS?? I was told by Ppl that time is pretty much unheard of for that many miles and only cut-off muffler.

Yeah I'm sitting here wondering how you hit those times in stock trim. Do you have any engine bay shots of the car?

Good driving skills yo! What car were you up against, I can't tell? Nissan

**phatnucca** · 05-18-05, 10:27 PM

Umm, no... it was a camaro I believe. All i remember is he smoked me!...LOL. I don't have any engine bay shots yet of the car. I have been too lazy to take pics..LOL. But i will asap. But yes.. the car was all stock except for cut-off muffler and removed intake resonator. Stock airbox and filter in place. Ppl couldn't beleive it when they saw 2 15.4's light up on the board. I honestly was expecting 16.0's. There were Ppl there with GSR's only going my time, some 15.3's too. They were all impressed with my car, couldn't beleive it wa a stock 91' RS..LOL

My clutch slipping in that video was Horrible... but still musterd a 15.5 out of it.

I will go back soon....

dang those are some crazy times... nice driving

**phatnucca** · 05-19-05, 12:09 AM

once again.. thanks fella's. I will be getting her dynoed soon... maybe Friday. my boys just opened a dyno shop with a Mustang Dyno. I am very curious to see what she is putting down to propel me to a 15.4

I will scan and post the dyno sheet after I get it dynoed.

**SP00NFed** · 05-19-05, 07:19 AM

nice driving skills

**phatnucca** · 05-19-05, 12:36 PM

thanks. I will be getting the car dynoed Hopefully tomorrow. However.. I am getting the stock muffler welded back on also tomorrow. My buddy owns the dyno shop and they are gonna do everything there. I want them to strap it down to the dyno B4 the muffler goes back on it. I am curious to see my #'s considering a 15.4 at full weight with no real mods. I will scan and post the dyno sheet asap. I was soo tempted to call out of work tonight and go back to the track again... but I decided not to. I can Taste that 15.3 in stock trim!

**StreetShark** · 05-19-05, 01:05 PM

did you take any thing out of the car I'v people doing this with stock cars but they took a lot of stuff out maybe you just got a car that was built on a tues day

**phatnucca** · 05-19-05, 01:19 PM

Haha.. built on a Tuesday. But no, NOTHING was taken out of the car. I had Full interior, power steering, A/C, Spare tire and jack. No one can really explain it. I am baffled as well.

-Joe

**Brar** · 05-19-05, 01:22 PM

o_0 is that really stock??? u sure that guy u got it from didnt get some swap or something? lol, just one NOOOOOOB question: wat is driving skills on the track? dont u just shift at redline and keep the car straight? thats wat i do

**phatnucca** · 05-19-05, 01:25 PM

no.. there is No swap done. 156,000 Mile B18A all stock with cut-off muffler. Full weight and all.

It takes alot of driving skill to pull good times at the track. I see you have a 90 LS, what are your mods and 1/4 time, or 1/8th mile time? It's ALL about your 60' time and nailing your shifts perfect and fast. Ask anyone... driver has a TOn to do with getting good times.

-Joe

**TheOtherDave™** · 05-19-05, 02:09 PM

Moved to Drag Strip. (It's just policy, don't worry. )

Thank you for racing responsibly!

**phatnucca** · 05-19-05, 02:16 PM

Yup, not a Problem man. I love racing at the track... at least you have something to show for it.. a timeslip...Hahaha.

-Joe

**StreetShark** · 05-19-05, 04:30 PM

wtf is "driving skill" lol, shifting at redline?

**Locrien** · 05-19-05, 06:20 PM

I'd like to see what times you can pull in a stock 91 rs. Take your sedan to a track and then tell me it doesn't take driving skill.

**phatnucca** · 05-20-05, 03:03 PM

.... Yeah, since he has never been to a track, he doesn't get it. But yeah, you should go and I can pretty much guess you will have a 60' of 2.4 or greater and run mid to high 16's. Trust us.. it Does take alot of practice to pull good times at the strip.

-Joe

**phatnucca** · 05-20-05, 07:08 PM

WOW..... I just checked out the Integra Faq thread on here and saw that a 90-91 DA is supposed to run about a 16.9 in the 1/4. Wasn't specified whether or not that time is for an Auto or Manual though. If that time is about right... I don't get how the hell I am 1.5 Seconds fasrter than that??

Those numbers are from Team-Integra.

They must be from an Auto Trans car.
I'll confirm and annotate ASAP.
