not worth a new post, but i just got home and i raced some guy in an Si. i missed 2nd and still had a little more than half a car whewn i let go on 3rd. he said he had headers, exhaust, chip and vtec controller...felt good cause they are quick little fuckers. 13b1stgen had one with similar work...ran hard.

UniqueTII 02-05-2002 10:56 PM

No such thing as an SI with an auto.

Twin89Stangs 02-07-2002 03:01 PM

well just raced my buddy's SI he got a 98 model I had three people in my car a full tank of gas and a check engine light and a tach not working! lol

1st race he nailed it and took off before I did.

2nd race we raced to around 130hp.

I hit the rev limiter in 1st 2nd 3rd 4th Man he was right beside me the whole time.



3rd race I threw one of my passengers in his car. Turned off the defroster it was loud thats why. Then we punched it at 20 which is not a good speed for me kind of puts me between gears. But we get going I get out ahead of him and this time immediately begin pulling pretty good by 70 he is almost 4 car lengths back. Remind me to get my car weighed tuned up and get that damn check engine light off!!! Oh by the way my car is loading up at idle and when I 1st got this car I could leave black marks in 2nd when scratching coming out of first and into 2nd. When racing him I could barely chirp them so I am down on power pretty badly! But still killed him! Oh on the 2nd run the top more or less raised up and acted kind of like a parachute and freezing us all out to the point I had to slow down or risk freezing all of us and loosing my WHOLE TOP!

UniqueTII 02-07-2002 07:06 PM

A 98 SI? Was it Canadian?

Twin89Stangs 02-08-2002 09:00 AM

you know honestly I dont know.



He bought it from a photographer that traveled across the U.S

He paid 10,200 for it and it had 64,xxx miles on it.... seemed slightly high for a 4 year old car but oh well it is actually not that bad. He is going come over and help to see what was wrong with my car. Even he said I should of pulled away pretty decently.



I mean come on

14.8 vs 16.1 I should of pulled away pretty good!

UniqueTII 02-08-2002 02:28 PM

Yeah, a full second or more in the quarter isn't even close.

Lol, I just paid 10,000 and 800 in shipping for a 12 year old car :sigh:

Twin89Stangs 02-08-2002 06:57 PM

Well we checked over the car some today.

2 plugs were fouled and not firing too well at all.

We reset the timing back to stock it wasnt set at stock.

And I changed the 2 spark plugs out for new ones.

Overall she seems a bit stronger now and pulls a bit better. So who knows.



We will have to see sometime this summer how well he hangs with me. I am planning on doing a full exhaust an electric fan and a cold air intake. Also maybe gears.... so we shall see!!

UniqueTII 02-09-2002 03:08 PM

Sounds like some pretty serious problems. After I went to the strip and ran 14.12, I changed my plugs and noticed that my leading plugs weren't exactly in nice shape. Too bad I never made it back to the track after that.

Twin89Stangs 02-09-2002 03:44 PM

Well a few more plugs fouled and when out cruising last night the battery decided to die on us while cruising. Luckily another mustang was around and he helped us jump the car and get it running again. So I am not sure. That could've been costing me a bit of power. So we changed out the remaining spark plugs and we have the car on a charger now. She seems a bit better. This car must of been pretty sick when I raced that SI.... I may have to challenge him again after getting her back up to speed!

UniqueTII 02-09-2002 07:44 PM

I want to race my friend Jason's SI. It's a '99 that still has the N/A B16A2, but it ran low 14s in the quarter last summer.

Twin89Stangs 02-14-2002 08:31 PM

Well me and my buddy with the SI are going to run.

my alternator was completely shot and it seems I was not able to rev like I should. I took her out tonight after the new plugs and new alternator and she hauls now. I called him and told him. "He was like you will probably get me but you never know". I know he aint got anymroe mods and his car was running in top shape last time. This time I will be more in top shape than I was. I dont mean to sound cocky but his ass is mine now! lol She revs fast and easy now! When I raced him she didnt!
