FTO vs TEG type R???

[johnny]

id say this has been discussed before..i was having the argument with a friend that loves his hondas ( )... but which is quicker...manual GPX or Integra Type R??? Straight line & twisty roads.. i reckon its a close one.

[CJ]

Are you talking about the DC2 or DC5? Both have been discused at one point or other i.e. http://www.fto-ireland.com/forum/phpBB2 ... php?t=3794

Just incase anyone doesnt read the link in the above post....

i'v owned a teg type r, and i'v driven a 2.0 gpx on a number of ocasions, and i have to say, the F wins hands down....the sheer comfort, the power.....and pimpness!:D

[ftolam13]

fto would win if the honda has no mods, all my mates driv hondas and the aftermarket support is bigger 4 vtec

[Sebastian]

a friend just got a DC2

its a 1.8 Si Vtec model 176bhp

after sorting the papers we will have a Drag

what do you recon will the GR hold back the TEG ?

[Muad_dib77]

Sorry Seb I doubt it will..

[ftolam13]

hope sooooo good luck

the cars ->

Red is always faster than black...My moneys on the FTO

Either way, the FTO looks a 100x better.

The GR is still possibly the same or quicker than the GPX up to 120 kms or so. I raced a 1998 manual GPX (on private roads ) with performance exhaust etc and I had absolutely no problems keeping up and I have very heavy wheels that add about 80 kilos! So lads the GR isn't that's bad! (Bracing myself from the GPX barage!)

[Muad_dib77]

Seb mate - how did the race go?

I hope you kicked his behind

[Sebastian]

fella is waiting for the belt to be changed+ move his insurrance on the teg

so .. i'm pending!

[Sebastian]

Vtec is ready
Gr ready

so it might happen soon

fella has a bad clutch
i have a bad exhaust

Pretty comprehensive looking in that video, the fto is languishing back with the civic vti

For what its worth, those sir-g integras are very underrated machines and would give a gpx manual a serious run for its money, very close setup to the typeR, just milder cams, slightly different gear ratios and a small bit heavier. I wouldnt say the gr would be anywhere near it to be honest.

Don't believe that an SiR Integra would give a manual GPX a run for its money - if you actually look at the times at the end of the above video you will find that there is a levin and a Civic SiR also in that race which are so far back they are out of sight of the FTO. The Civic SiR was 3.5 secs slower per best lap than the FTO.

The Integra Type R however is a MUCH more focused track weapon than an SiR - Civic or Integra.
