Haha cheers! Worth livening up a boring thread! lol People should just stop bringing up the EK9 vs. GT thread...always goes one way - CLOSED!

x2

life is short. Stop wasting it with these stupid threads. If you want to talk about civic v starlet, honda v toyota then do a search (see that seacrh button up there- USE IT!). Millions of these useless pointless threads for you to waste your life on.

:haha:

what it boils down to is this..

as soon as someone says '' so and so car is faster than a starlet..'' people go on the defence and start crying about it, asif we are saying starlets are shit..

when some of us still own starlets like me and dan :haha::confused:

aghhh..

it all depends on the circumstances though..

i for one am not saying that type R's are faster than starlets.. you need to elaberate on that abit.. so we are saying a stock starlet is not going to be faster than an ek9 with a b18.. OR a stock starlet isnt going to be faster than a stock dc2..

This is the problem, people are saying shit that doesnt add up, and people like me and dan who have had starlets before, can compare the cars better than most as we have driven both..

people just saying ''type R's arent as fast as people make out'' isnt added anything to the argument other than sturring things up :haha:


they were not talking stock he just said stock boost and starlet3sgte said a 185whp starlet wouldnt even be able to take a type r! Well that might be because the bhp on the dyno is just for pub talk you need the car to be fast not have big bhp!

what did i say here....? if i was just a honda gay i would be saying ''honda's are faster than starlets period..''

;)

yeah exactly, a 180bhp should see off a stock type r, as it is lighter and it has more power (than a ek9 type r)
the advantage the dc2 has is its gear ratio's, aswell as having far superior suspension setup to a starlet, and LSD as standard.. people seem to forget that type r's are designed for track and twistys, not for 1/4 mile straight road drag racing ;)

no.

I said a starlet with 180-185WHP would be a good match FOR MY EK9 running a JDM type R lump, stripped out with Exhaust/manifold/lightened flywheel. Far from a "stock EK9 type R". Im not unrealistic. And i based my comments on facts. Not what i think! As it gets you nowhere.

And when i said "would be" im actually saying "it is". Proven and tested with a few various powered starlets. Some of which are some close friends that i see most weekends.
