Who will win? Stock to stock?

Dig and Stop?

How about 6MT VS SI?

how old are you? because if you answer that question, then you will know which one is faster.

im 19, i dont know, so im asking

RX8 auto vs '06 Si....the Si will win.

RX8 MT vs '06 Si....they are pretty close.

AT and SI, how big differnt?

a huge difference...here's a video comparing a MT and AT RX8....both have similar mods...now pretend that MT rx8 is an Si...

http://youtube.com/watch?v=tNjOG5fRSd0

is that 4 spd rx8? 6spd and 4spd made big differnt?

thats a 4spd...the 6spd AT is a bit faster than the 4spd AT...but not much.

what's 6spd run on 1/4 15s? 16s?

what's 6spd run on 1/4 15s? 16s?

The MT 6-speed RX8 can run about 14.5 1/4 mile...i'm guessing that the 4spd AT runs in the 16's...so i'm guessing the 6spd will run high 15's low 16's.

Heh, so you come here to ask if the Si would win? lol.. Ah.. :puke:

Thread failure

Is there a way we can filter these threads. So when people ask stupid questions, the system will freeze the post/thread?

lol that would be a good idea. any time any one types Civic vs 8 , z vs 8 and last s2k vs 8 in the same post. the forum will automaticly ban the poster. and the reason will be for not doing a search :ylsuper:

last I check the civic SI is a pretty slow car too. i have a feeling its not much faster than an AT 8

SI win every time
197hp 2886lbs = 14.65 lbs/hp
212hp 3854lbs = 18.18 lbs/hp (sport )
232hp 3810lbs = 16.42 lbs/hp (sport )

How mentally challenged are you? The 8 is 2980 or 3060 max.

edit...I PC'd myself

^^LOL you better put your flame sheild on, RX8 owners are all bulimic headcases. sicing the rx8's weight by like 700-800lbs is going to piss off a lot of people

How retarded are you? The 8 is 2980 or 3060 max.
see what i mean? :)

Dammit, Saturn! You made me start laughing while I was in the library!

Seriously though, this thread just gave me a VERY compelling reason to stay here if I end up with a Civic SI as my next car (lease is up in June, SI is on the list).

Free post on retarded thread.

I'll see your "good job" and raise you a "great job".

Well not certainly you or I.

The Si can never lose.

VTEC = Virtually Torquless Econo Car

Hey, you weren't driving on the 91 freeway a few days ago were you? Because if you were, I'm sure you remember what the back of my RX-8 looks like and you'll have your answer to that question. (even though mine is M/T)

Our Honda minivan has vtec.

I prefer to think of it as getting rid of a minivan for an maxima.

so: maxima vs civic si... who wins?

Well, if the maxima had vtec....


:hahano:

everyone knows the civic will take it 'in da twisties'

I'm somewhat new here and admittedly this is kind of a stupid thread. But I have never been to a forum like this where car owners both love their car, but constantly bash on it at the same time.

But a Civic Si? Get real people. A stock Civic is just not that fast. A manual 8 would smoke a Civic Si, and EVEN an auto '06 8 would likely beat an Si, although it would be close. The auto is slower than the manual. That's a given. But its not that slow.

Please forgive him. He was taking this thread seriously.

Did I honestly just read this whole thread?? I feel dumber

It's still alive.

its amazing how many reply these kinda threads get and the kind of replies it gets... only in this lovely rx-8 forum can this happen. :grouphug:

im 19, i dont know, so im asking

Ooooh.

civic si would win...sorry guys

my cordless telephone has v-tech... :wiggle:

but here's some deeper'er question: who'll win in a fight? superman or mightymouse? why does nick fury's eyepatch always move to the eye furthest away from the reader? when optimus prime transforms into a truck, where does his trailer come from? in starwars, why did yoda have to tell obi-wan "there is another" if he was obviously there at the twins (luke and leia) birth? since wolverine's bones are metal, can he swim? how does silversurfer move? what happnes to my lap when i stand up? does the thing have a penis? if i drive really, really fast--shouldn't this save more gas since my overall driving time is less? what's better vanilla or chocolate? when megatron transforms into a pistol, how does he shrink?

I drive the fastest car in the WORLD!

...this space is for rent....

oh, the Thing has a penis...believe me

chocolate!

If we took off the front wheels of both cars, the 8 would win.

hehe, I overheard someone a long time ago ask the same Optimus prime question.

He came to the conclusion that there is an alternate dimension in which the trailer rests until prime needs it.

That's because many car forums are just a giant circle jerk of people stroking each other's egos for how great each other are for buying such an amazing car. The demographic of the people interested in this car are relatively normal, rational people that can give and hear both sides. Also, the forum rules, as given by rational moderators, allow for a relatively civilized discussion.

In other words, we're teh awes0me.

I love pancakes.

wow pretty sweet life...

who cares which one can win in a drag?

neither car is meant to drag, or built for drag racing.

The civic si was built to be an econobox that had a bit more zip than a regular old boring Civic.

The RX8 was built as a sports car, with the capability to "moonlight" as a sedan if necessary.

both have a similar power to weight ratio...and the similarities stop there.

If I was driving up/down the freeway, trying to maximize my mpg...I'd take the Si.

If I was about to go on a spirited drive on a twisty mountain road and wanted to have fun.. I'd take the RX8.

any way you slice it, an RX8 is going to be more fun to drive than a Civic.

You seem concerned with who would win in a "drag". You should worry more about what you need a car to do, and whether it does what you need. I am looking for a FUN car which is why I haven't even considered an Si, but why I am thinking of buying an RX8.

I can find you plenty of cars that will smoke BOTH a civic AND an RX8 in a drag race, that will be absolutely NO FUN to drive whatsoever... heck.. my commuter car.. is an older volvo turbo... with 125k miles on it..and it will roast an 8 in the straight...it weighs only about 3200 lbs and is pushing close to 260hp. would I rather drive that car over an 8. NOPE.

when you are 19 all you think about is speed. well..not true..all you think about is sex... but if you are momentarily thinking about cars, while your brain is taking a break thinking about sex...then all you car about is speed. once your brain is no longer intoxicated with youth, hormones, and stupidity... you discover there are more important things than 0-60 and 1/4 mile.

once your brain is no longer intoxicated with youth, hormones, and stupidity... you discover there are more important things than 0-60 and 1/4 mile.

Yeah, like 0-100!!

Yeah, like 0-100!!

whatever, 0-12 is sooo much more important...

who'll win in a fight? superman or mightymouse?
Superman
why does nick fury's eyepatch always move to the eye furthest away from the reader?
because hes not really blind.. he just likes screwing with people
when optimus prime transforms into a truck, where does his trailer come from?
his "pants"
in starwars, why did yoda have to tell obi-wan "there is another" if he was obviously there at the twins (luke and leia) birth?
what does it matter? what would obi-wan do? argue with yoda?
since wolverine's bones are metal, can he swim?
Yes. he can do anything
how does silversurfer move?
he surfs
what happnes to my lap when i stand up?
same thing that happends to light when you turn off the switch
does the thing have a penis?
of coarse, it would either be Really big, or really small.. no inbetween..
if i drive really, really fast--shouldn't this save more gas since my overall driving time is less?
You'd think so
what's better vanilla or chocolate?
thats more of a personal preferance?
when megatron transforms into a pistol, how does he shrink?
a lot of skill and practise

anyways.. now that those questions have been answered... The civic ALWAYS wins

Let's go another day.....

That bunny is my screensaver.

my IQ dropped some points after reading this crap...

I was up against a Si just a couple days ago. Not sure what speed we started out at. It started when he was in front of me. He passed the car in front of us and then he took off, so he had a headstart about 3 cars length. I was in 3rd gear and I switched over 2 lanes, and had him on my rear tire, then I went into 4th gear. He stayed on my rear tire until I stopped at 110mph. Yes, I have an auto.
