Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

i will more than likely be able to make it up to KK, once again pending no rain.. i left early last night, because driving a spyder in the rain is no fun.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Ill prolly be at KK tommorow.

Thanks guys for the compliments :)

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Much like on my car...the top goes up. I can also guarantee your tires are better in the wet than mine are ;)

Applebees was a good time and luckily Reid and I were able to make a few strategic n00b trades.

For Thursday, its a maybe whether or not I'll be able to make it, but if I do you can bet on some *edit* hot-lapping action afterwards!

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

anyone meeting anywhere tonight that anyone knows of??... seems like its going to be a nice night.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

7pm at the Culvers on 494 and Bass Lake Rd. (County Road 10) in Plymouth (right near the Maple Grove boarder). This is a weekly MNSC meet...I think Matt D. is the only one from this board to go regularly.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

well doesn't help to post this at 7pm... lol.. oh well see you all around

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Its the best I could do for ya.

Anyways, if I do show up to KK it will probably be near 10 and I'll have dreams of *edit* in my head.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

i get off work at 9, so i will proably head up there from work

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I might be at kk tonight, we'll see how the day goes.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

MIGHT BE??? dang josh... Idont feel the love anymore...

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I work tonight, but if I am off by 9 or 9:30 I will probably head on over for a bit.


Jim, I gotta meet up with you at some point for some parts ;) Maybe Next weeks events.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I might go tonight, it depends on the weather I guess.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

weather.com.. says rain starting at 6pm but we will see.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Should be there if it doesnt rain... around 9:30.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I might take the Conquest. Well, someone has to show the noobs what's up.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I'm thinking I might swing by around 9:30-10.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

is that S2000 fast?

and why don't they make an S2005?

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

the s2k, is a great track car, but lacks trq. so it isn't much of a drag car.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Might show up around the 10ish time as well, I'll call some cellphones to see whos around, or give my cell a gingle.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Well, the most recent stock S2K puts down 210hp @ 8000 rpm and 146lb-ft @ 6400. A stock 1G puts down 195hp @ 6000 rpm and 203lb-ft @ 3000. The only reason we have more torque is because of when the turbo hits, then it raises fairly well throughout the small rpm range(compared to the S2K). And VTEC Hondas keep making power to redline, DSM's usually don't.

Just about any day of the week a stock S2K wouldn't have much a problem with walking away from a stock 1G, especially on the freeway. And the S2K stock runs the 1/4 in about 14.4. You would need to open up the factory restrictions on a DSM to get that, then of course if you added the minor bolt ons it would be a whole different game. For a NA four cylinder the S2K is as good as it gets, especially being overengineered as it is.

In summary, the S2K isn't just another Honduh, it rocks. Throw a Jackson Racing on there and there you go. Have fun.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

The S2k is quicker than most people give it credit for, but it by no means a drag car (I don't want it to be, that wasn't the point of the car. With that said, high 13's in the low 100's are possible with a bone stock car). The 2000 is the engine displacement (2 liters...well, actually ~1997cc so close enough). Even though the 04-05 S2k's are using a 2.2L engine, they kept the same name since only North America is getting this engine, Europe, Asia, etc. are still getting the F20C. The 2000 doesn't stand for the MY it was released since there was a '99 MY everywhere but North America.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

There is some decent info in the above post, but also some false info:
1) You're comparing the S2k's WHP/tq to a 1G's factory rated crank HP/tq, not a fair comparison. I doubt a stock 1G puts down anything more than 170 at the wheels.
2) It would take a pretty bad driver to not get anything better than a 14.4, even most magazines get low 14's with owners pulling high 13's.
3) Jackson doesn't make a supercharger kit for the S2k, only Comptech and Vortech currently are making mass-production kits.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Did I miss anything exciting tonight?

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

yes you did. It was a huge turnout! Where was you? It was a great night for Edit...

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Damn it....stupid Bostons pizza making people sick. We started on our way to KK about 8:45, but the stomach/pizza was having none of it. Did the 'Quest make the journey?

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Yeah it was a good turn out last night and great weather to boot. There were a lot of people there that I didn't know but I got to share some FWD Laser info with Unreal (Cory) which was cool, and I even sold him on some suspension for his car I think.

CRAIG

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I think there was 14-15 cars there last night. Great turnout!!!

later,
Curt

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I thought I was looking at crank vs. crank. That impresses me even more.
I figured as much, but didn't want to make a comment without having hard evidence to back it up.
Ahh... Shows how much I know about Hondas. ;)

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

psh, kor i selling that awd car..I think still..right kory? I thought he woulda brought the pimped "laser" (In doctor evil's voice, with quotes) but he had to take a customers kia home..nuthin like driving a kia..lol. it was a good turnout last night..hopefully next week we can get even more..I think few people could find a spot. And, that vw that drove outta there, was a guy I knew, but I figured dan woulda been with him..a better friend of mine. I shoulda raced him..

-A. Swift

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Stock 2.0l S2000s that I have dynoed put down 200whp. Stock 1Gs should put down around 165-170whp, but a 100% stock 1G is a very rare thing around here.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Stock S2k's put down 200-210 on Dynojet dpending in what year the car is. 00-01 are generally 200-205, 02-03 are 205-210 due to a remapped ECU, and 04-05 are closer to 210 with more torque. They also keep gaining power for the first 10-12k miles as the engine fully breaks in.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

maybe have to find a larger parking lot here soon. or not. but there is that one right next to KK.

and thanks for all that sweet vee tech info, but i was joking. you nerd! ;)

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

Anybody gonna be going to porkys tomorrow? (tues)

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

The weather is looking good for Thurs so I'm thinking we get some *edit* action in! I'll arrive at KK around 10:45 after work with plans on heading to *edit* around 11. Craig, I expect to see you there to try out your new suspension.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

i B there tonight

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

I might show up, it depends on if we go out tonight somewhere or not. Its pretty warm out so I am sure The Bird will have a health selection of slutty girls there.

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

the bird?

Re: Porky's and KK this week
 

..night club. apparently, sluts are better then dsms...

-A. Swift

Re: Porky's and KK this week
