AutoX it, drag race, whatever! Bring it it MAP's BIR event and push the pedals and turn the wheel a bit, it's a blast!

I know you didn't just build this thing to sell it and didn't just give it this much power to runaway from the thieves. :P

The wheels turn themselves when the gas is floored in 4th and 5th gear and I don't know what to do other than invest in bigger tires, break stuff and keep going with it. Doesn't sound too appealing to me anymore...

The gas pedal is not an on/off switch you know....if you only push it down half-way you should be able to actually have some fun with it on an autoX course at the very least.

I'd never autoX it. It won't even spool during an autoX course, and cones are boring, lol. I can't even do hwy pulls with it because 4th spins and 5th gear tq steers so hard w/ these tiny tires and 6th is just too fast...(mph)

FWIW I used to say the same thing, until I tried it. Just a good cheap way to have fun with the car other than going in a straight line, that's all.

AutoX'ing a fwd 4banger w/ a 62mm turbo setup doesn't sound too appealing to me either.

Sell it and get an S2k :)

You would fall asleep behind the wheel autocrossing a car with a turbo that big. :lol:

Just read this whole thread, great build man, looks like tons of fun. I regret selling my RSX after seeing how easy power is made on the k20's.

Keep it, I know traction sucks (I had problems at way less power) but they are fun in a lot of other ways! R-comps?

Maybe just run it in reverse then, RWD is better than FWD anyways.

I also didn't update this thread but the car was down for 3 weeks until last week, because I shorted out some wires...... and traced it for dayssssss........... that's why I'm over it.

Maybe I'll get DR's for it, but who knows.

I have only spun out at BIR once, I am much better at doing it at Road America.

It's not the neighborhood, it's when I feel like driving it to the theatre or mall or anywhere else I'd want to go.

Go back to an Evo, it takes care of all those problems.

There are a couple Integras that are ChumpCars. :) I'd feel safer spinning out a ChumpCar than your car. :lol:
