2006 WRX vs 2000 Civic w/ K20 ?? - ClubWRX Forum - Subaru Impreza WRX and STi Community and Forums

Newera09 · 10-05-2006, 12:39 PM

In a few weeks I shall been attending a meet in CT where I will be coming across an old friend form my civic days. He says we should run now that I have a Rex so he can show me what a mistake it was to get one, I said cool. So from what I hear its a 2000 Civic with a K20 RSX Type- S swap which I believe are rated at 210 hp & 143lbs/torque. He supposedly has Toda cams, headers, exhaust, intake, and aftermarket clutch. I just recently went up against a turbo GSR and beat it by about 3 car lengths launching with out dumping the clutch should I be worried ?? I was thinking about getting maybe a TBE and a stage 2 tune B4 for the meet to maybe give me some extra ponies.... what do you guys think??

Race from a dig, and you should be fine till the upper MPH.

Race from a roll and you may be seeing his lights. He is lighter and is putting down about the same or more HP as a stock 06.

K20A2 (200hp the K20Z1 is 210) + Toda Cams, H, I, E = very good power increase. If he has Hondata that is even better.

How about with a stage 2 tune?

hopefully you can show me the most efficient way to launch w/o a clutch dump this weekend bro...

Stage 2 is putting down like 224whp. Id say that is SLIGHTLY more than what he will be putting down. Still a close race w/ him having the advantage from a roll b/c he is lighter. But then again he could be untuned and be running horribly.

You will lose.

Great reason to start moding dont ya think

But if it was anything else than a dig, get a TBE and stage 2 or you wont be happy when your looking at his tail lights..

Just as info my 02 bugeye when i had it was stage 2 with supporting mods and I only pulled a little bit on one from a 60 mph roll and i think it had stock cams. so its going to be a tight one. Video tape this!

Your deff going to want stg 2 other wise your tost. If your running stock even from a did you will jump out a car or two but soon he's going to be right there and might pass you, don't forget he weighs about 300 lbs. less then you. I'm stg 2 on my 06 and live with honda people and go to there meets all the time. With the right mods the are deadly.

DTR rex · 10-05-2006, 07:07 PM

He is probably running lower 14's and if he does in fact have a tuned Hondata, more like 13's. This means that from a dig it will likely be close, and from a roll you are going to be owned. If you go stage2 you should have no problem taking him from a dig with a good launch.. However, from a roll it would still be close even at stage2

stage 2 tuned can take a stage one sti from a roll..

trust me on this one!

Bboy AJ · 10-05-2006, 09:13 PM

He's running mid to high 13s with that setup. That K series responds very well to the usual N/A mods.

I think with the Stage 2, however, you will be able to take him pretty handily.

Yep its a Driver's race!

Newera09 · 10-06-2006, 10:17 AM

I think its definately gonna be a tight race w/o stage 2. Although I wasnt supposed to I already went up against a Turbo'ed B series w/o LSD and I pulled about 3 cars on him but he caught up to me at around 95 BUT that was with me shifting at 5k AND I practically bogged at the line because I was afraid of doing a clutch dump. Believe me right now Im literally trying to get this sorted out before the meet. I was supposed to get a Nur Spec today and it got delyed thru shipping like 4 days so right now Im talking to a local kid so I can pick up a Greddy catback from him and just purchase the DP from ebay so I can hurry and get this thing tuned by then. I have been preaching to my honda buddies what a big step up in power the soobie has been so I really need to prove it come this meet. Trust me it will be recorded and posted.

Are you going Cobb? I am very interested in how this turns out, it should be a good race.
