Not that those supercars have great difference over this Acura, just that I reckon the guy on the Integra is the only one there that actually knows the limits of his car.

I love my EJ8. It's been an awesome platform for me. I bought it for $1000 USD from a kid that had no idea what he was doing. It had a JDM D15B VTEC block with a non-VTEC head and a JDM S8G Del Sol Si transmission. I put a D16Z6 VTEC head on it with a 63 trim turbo and on only 6 lbs it was an absolute beast on the drag strip revving to 9000 rpm between shifts. Today, it has a B18B1 non-VTEC (for torque and reliability) with an Integra GSR transmission and the same 63 trim turbo setup on 8 lbs and makes about 275 whp. I just bought a set of Bosch 650 cc injectors, an Omni-Power 3 bar MAP sensor, and a 15 psi spring for my 38mm external wastegate. I'm going for 350 whp and then it's suspension time. We have a local road racing track near here and I'm trying to make a nice, fast, clean car to take out there eventually. The issue with all of this and why it hasn't already been done is because I have a family (2 boys) and of course, they come first. It's really nice to have a goal though.

It's balance of power and weight ratio..the most powerful cars are heavy so have to slow down on sharp curves where the lighter car can somewhat glide through it due to it not having all the weight to carry through the curves

Nice job of pushing the body-weight to outer track right after the straight...looks like you've seen the track before 👍

Well done sir

Push it to the limit !! I love the ending man I just love goes you got on the corvettes assss and he said FU and you just wavEd back hahahaa

Hey, nice driving! Just to confirm, at 3:54, when you started to counter steer the oversteer and rev-match, did you let off the throttle completely, and also apply the brakes?

Good driver and a nice Integra ..

is not all about how much power you got but how much you can put down safely

Being a hardcore HONDA boi with a mint RSX-S Kfrank engine, I love this damn video.

I'm used to Hondas sounding Hamster powered. Even some K20 and K24. This car though sounds great from the inside. A real racy note when in Vtec. Almost motorcycle like.

Not going to deny it, that was a nice mustang actually doing something on the track and not the street or strip.

I'm thinking about taking my bone stock 2001 Vette to Streets in a few weeks. I used to do a lot of canyon driving when I was younger, but now that I sim race, I'm not as eager to abuse my car. Curious about the passing zones, aren't you supposed to restrict your passing to these two zones? What I saw was the driver trying to pass all over the track. I'm a little concerned about the bad driving I saw from other drivers. I used to win some things every now and then so I'm not trying to prove anything, but just have a little fun.

+John G. Hill It all depends on your run group. I was in the advanced group meaning there is opening passing everywhere since all drivers are supposed to be experienced which isn't always the case, as you saw. If you go to a track day and run with a reputable organization, you should have very little fear of incidents on track. Speed Ventures is great in SoCal and NASA is always a safe and reliable bet to get you on track and teach you. Good luck!

+Speed Academy Thanks for getting back to me. The impetus for me thinking about this is the new SCCA program for track days in the middle of the week. September 18th at Willow. They didn't say it would be Streets of Willow, but they showed the map and it looked like Streets to me. I have no concern with crashing on my part, just worried about some drivers. They have special follow alongs, and then they let people out later in three 20 minute sessions. About $115.00 bucks, so you can't beat it. I think the passing will be in special zones. I figured you must have been in the advanced session to be able to do that.

DoctaMarcos It's hard to say which handles as the two cars do what they do in different ways. As far as the suspension goes the BRZ has a more complicated multi-link suspension setup but I don't think it really has anything that makes it a better setup as the s2ks suspension can still be considered modern, and the s2000 suspension actually has more adjustability than the BRZs. Handling-wise, both cars have great balance. The s2k though is a more oversteer prone knife edge kind of car with (comparing it at the brz with decent tires) either way it wouldn't be worth the hassle to swap that engine into a car that was designed for a boxer engine, it would take far too much fab work, money and time. You'd be better off building the 4U or boosting it.

@MrMikeDao

9 жыл бұрын

DoctaMarcos The BRZ actually has a bit more stable suspension setup than the S2K does prior CR years. AP1 being the most twitchy put a demand on Honda to readjust the suspension due to a high report of crashes. The FRS is similar to the s2000 being tail happy. Both cars are even in terms of suspension, both are great cars nonetheless. The only thing the S2K has over the 86 is power. They both have the same weight and very similar suspension setup (none are better than each other).
