I have a 1988 na supra and one of my buddys just bought a 2000 acura integra. He seems to think that his car is going to beat mine but i seem to think the oppisit. Is there anyone out there that can give me a good guess at who they think is going to win. Because i cant really race him right now because my car is in the stages of getting rebuilt i have the engine and everything out of it so anyone that know or even has an oppinon on the matter please let me know because i am tired of fighting with him about it

Are you auto or 5speed? What engine does he have and is he auto or 5speed?

Auto, stick, it don't matter. There is a very good probability that he can beat you because you only have 200 HPs and a heavy car.
Power to weight ratio is probably in his favor.

Totally disagree. If he has the base integra with an auto, a 5spd NA would have no problem. Til my previous question is answered its to close to call.

Those times are all over the place... No info on test cars. Way to vauge to compare. Put the car together and go shut him up. If he beats you, then make her faster.

he has a 5 speed and it is a integra ls i checked the website you told me to check and it said that my 0-60 time is 7.9 and my 1/4 miletime is 16 flat it said that his integra ws 0-60 in 7.6 seconds but then his 1/4 mile time was 16 flat also so i guess i a going to have to turbo mine which will make it 15.2 then that will be good enogh i suppose for while i am in highschool

it also depends whether or not the other kid has any performance parts.

i have a na 5spd and it gets going in the lower gears, but on the top end it kinda fizzles out, but thats just mine. the power to weight is in the tegra's hands as long as he's been takin care of his car. i didnt look at the times cause im lazy but i know that the times fluctuate with the driver. i think the best idea would be to hurry up with the motor and throw it back in and roll up to the nearest track or whatever.

I think your idea about outting the engineback in the car and racing him is a good idea but it is justto bad i cant do that due to the fact that i am only 15 and cant drive by myself and my dad will not let me race him on the street i dont think so i gess i will have to wait until i am 16 to go race him and to the guy that asked me if e as any performance mods yes he does but so do i he has a short ram intake and a short shifter he also has a header and is buying a new cat back exhaust system for it but i also am loking at a new hks catback system for my car and i already have a cold air intake systm for it i want to get the obx header and downpipe off of ebay to so with those stats i woder who would win on his cartest computer program it says that i would win by.5 of a second

You can't base it on a computer. You need to line up, side by side and do it. AT A TRACK. You don't want to kill innocent people being stupid on the street.
