civic ek vs celica

[BlakTegra]

Huh? draw? Both runs weren't valid man!
You guys shoulda had another few runs WITHOUT the passenger inside.
The passenger can be the chick that does the sexy dance before she drops her scarf...hahahaha

1. EK Vti is 88kW (SOHC Non-VTEC)
2. I've raced a ~91 Celica in my Si (both cars stock) and it was neck and neck.(that was before the car was tuned ETC).

Really Win? hmm... maybe I'm overestimating my friends car... never had a chance to run it... and SHE'S a pretty decent driver.... oh well...
I've driven it a fair few times and they go pretty well...
props to your pimp Si.

Yeah joneblaze... I really do think that you overestimate these Celica's man... no offence aight? I just really think that they're not that quick. And the engine displacement doesn't count for anything as a 1.8L can beat a 5.0L. Don't be fooled by the engine displacement.
And I thought that the EK VTi were SOHC VTEC??

[joneblaze]

hehe.. oh no no, the displacement wasn't the main arguing point for myself. Just the fact that when i drive the SX, it feels alot torquier than my GSi or VTiRs i've driven....
But i suppose the Hondas need to be revved
I still can't believe a GLi beat an SX...hehe...sorry not meaning to bag ur car buddy. If you beat him then well done and well driven! It's always satisfying to beat cars which are "rated" and touted more than yours.
You should race the SX again, which no passengers and see how you go!

Yeah DC2R, isn't the EK Vti SOHC VTEC? Isn't that what the "V" stands for? hehe.. so misleading...
Win? :roll:

[wynode]

EK Vti isn't SOHC VTEC. They stopped putting the SOHC VTEC motors in the EK models.

Its been "argued" a few times before on this forum. Check the sticky for more info:

Just to add......The Celica IS Torqy, but torque isn't everything.

That said, i've raced my friends ~94/95 model Celica (same Camry engine) and he kills me off the line (about 1 - 1.5 body lenghts).......but after that he doesn't pull away much more.

Win, Isn't an EJ (sedan EK) a SOHC Vtec, as is the "ek" coupe Vti....

[wynode]

THe EK Vti coupe is SOHC-VTEC (98kW if i remember correctly), but the EK vti Sedan isn't SOHC VTEC.

[McChook]

hmmm... ok... *research time*

mmmm from experience celicas are slooooowwwww.theyre only 100kw i think.. but toooo heavy. ive run so many in my teg LS.. B18A (96kw).. ive never lost... same as the v6s camrys which are even faster than the celicas..
