I hope you realize your one of the faster accords around. Guys with H22 swaps and turbos are hitting low 14's on a good day. never mind mid 13's breaking into the 13's PERIOD with a 3,000 pound long geared commuter car is quite a feat. (unless youre gutted) usually 6th gen accord members have to spend up around 10,000 for a CLS J32 engine and supercharger to get into 13's. theres only one accord I know that has gotten into the 12 sec mark (02av6 on v6p)

looks like the F23 isnt hopeless after all.

if you think youre setup is good now, slap on an H22/h23 tranny, and youll be putting swapped race civics to shame.

Really i thought there would be more into the 13's then that, the car is not gutted at all, well the spare tire is gone in place on the nitrous bottle, last time i had it weight and a CAT scale it was 3,040 and that was with about a half a tank of gas, i wasn't in the car of course.

I'm looking at a couple of the lower e.t. cars on here and i don't see them running slicks or anything to help them with there 60' times.

I'm running 225/50R14 Hoosier R6's on infinti g20 rims, and i've also replaced my clutch with a act heavy duty clutch.

Honestly they were what got my time down the most minus the nitrous of course, i really couldn't get better the a 14.3 until i replaced my clutch and throw some slicks on it drop my e.t. about .5 sec's it took alittle to find the right tire pressure put 13psi seems to work great.

yeah most people think power automatically translates to good times, where traction, gearing, and just flat out knowing how to drive your car, all are important if not more important than hp. Most people would say that teh bottle is cheating, but you gotta work with what ya got.

What accordian said, plus 3,000lbs is not a light car by anymeans.

and a sedan to boot! aint that ironic, the most stock looking accord on here is the fastest.

dont change your exterior keep it exactly the way it is. I love it. keep it sleepy.

Yeah i decided to go the whole go and no show route lol, plus buying body kit parts and fancy rims would take away from my money to buy more go fast goodies lol, oh and definatley more nitrous it's like crack the local tuner shop gives me a great deal since i buy so much from them.

I want to eventually go turbo with the car but i'm just waiting until the motor finally goes out right now i have about 90,000 on the car and it's still running strong and dosen't burn oil.

 

[theaccordian]

what are you dropped on? suspension mods?

 

[demon5spd]

i'm running tein's basic coil over kit, it's a pretty nice setup right now i have it lowered about 2.5 to 3" not really sure i can barely fit my fingers in between the tire and fender lip lol.
