whoa... i dont know what you guys are talking about AT ALL here... i own an 03 rsx type s - intake, exhaust and headers.. thats it... i have NEVER lost to a g35... 6 speed, the sports coupe, the 4 door, even the new 298hp ones. g35s are slower than shit... off the line they're cool and alll, but just a few mods on a k20 rsx, and you'll eat those things alive, all day every day

What does an RSX I/H/E run in the 1/4 mile anyway? Sub 14 seconds??? You are looking at low 14's in a G35 with a few hitting 13.9x at over 100 mph STOCK...

Flattering, since i am not a professional driver!! I ran a 14.0 @ 101.75 in my G35 coupe 6MT. Out of about 10 runs, I averaged about a 14.1-14.2 with about 3 14.0's.

Well good for you, different days you will run different times also due to the humidity and the weather

True, those times were from weshampton Dragway. I also went to ATCO and ran consistent 14.2's as well. Traps were down a few mph (to 98) but the temp was a little higher and the humidity was up a little bit. I am not sure of the elevation at ATCO though compared to LI Dragway which is at sea level ).

Why do I feel like I am not welcome here with some of these snotty remarks??

Eh, don't worry about snotty remarks from newbs. We like all kinds of cars here. You'll notice that many of the OG members who frequent this site don't even own an Honda/Acura anymore. There's several other G35C driver's roaming around as well...

This is a Honda/Acura forum afterall. So you kinda to have to expect crazy people who think you can overcome a near 100 hp delta with a couple of mods. Absolute lunacy.
