:rice:

Just wondering, what can an RX-7 (s5 90) TurboII beat or at least challenge? With or without mods.



I'm thinking an M3 would be a good race for the RX-7. Heard it was quite good against a Porsche 924, no idea about 911 (whatever year). Hjow about the Supra? Or the Volvo T5 (cops use them in the UK, tuned of course! :( )



Anything else it can whipe the ass off or keep up with?



Please say whether the RX-7 will be stock or modified (if so how much).



Thanks... this should be interesting!



One one last car to challenge.... (uk).... Ford Sierra RS Cosworth Turbo (2.0 4cyl 240bhp 4x4)

whats an SHO? Sorry, i'm from UK! Who makes it and stuff!

teknics 01-22-2003 02:12 PM

and SHO is a ford taurus "super high output", it's basically a tuned out taurus https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

afaik 'tuned out taurus' is quite far from the truth, i believe the sho has a completely different engine that is from yamaha.

my mother in law drives a t5...I've never been in a tII, but that damn t5 is quite a thrill...fastest car I've driven, I just can't race it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif

an s5 tII is about as fast as an RX-8, right?

Rotaryman88 01-22-2003 07:29 PM

s5 t2 stock would beat the following:

*Civic(vtec or non)

*integra(vtec or non)

*prelude(vtec or non)

--you get the idea on hondas right?

*Taurus SHO

*'96+ GST eclipses(and the NA ones)



s5 t2 w/ exhaust & intake(good tires too)

*GT mustangs

*anything GM

*camaros

*just about anything you run into on a normal day....

uhhh



since you're no longer comparing stock to stock, do we give the z06 exhaust, intake, and good tires?



how about stock intake, exhaust, shitty street tires, automatic even, LS1 Fbody with 150 shot, bye bye modded T2.



assuming we're talking straight line here.

Apex13B 01-22-2003 07:59 PM

bottom line...you spend enough money...you kill shumacher in a straight line

CrazyAssRX7 01-22-2003 08:59 PM

with exhaust an intake maybe a lil tweaking

the 350z

id really liek to see that

Apex13B 01-22-2003 10:07 PM

stock t2 = 160 hp

stock 350z = 280 hp



you'll need more than tweaking you are down 120 hp

90_GTU_jeremy 01-22-2003 10:11 PM

t2 is 200 hp in the later models right?

Apex13B 01-22-2003 10:28 PM

you ar estill 80 hp down then....you'll nee more than mufflers and a ******* cone filter



if you use the RB full system which is worth 60hp(or so they say)..you'll need fuel upgrades(pump ,inj, rising rate regulator)

Hehe..Im still waiting for the kid at my school to do that to his car. I have an FD though...and I was fortunate enough to run a 350z. It was awesome. SHould have seen the look on the asian kids face when I blew his doors off. And to think I only paid 1/3 of what he paid for his car!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Um S4 T2s have 180HP..not 160, and S5 T2s have 200...



160HP is an NA S5, NA S4s are 148HP
