Nice vid. How far back was that blue ep3? like 2 cars?

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

That was pretty sweet. I would have liked to see the runs against the rustang though. Man that SC sounds mean!

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

hm they say the K24A2 is faster on the high end but dead even 3k-6k...but it looked to me like the turbo'd K20A3 was faster when he hit his shifts.

those cars are growing on me. i still hate the whole 'bent nail in the dashboard' positioning of the shift knob...but i dont hate the cars themselves as much anymore.

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

i liked that vid...........2 k powered cars with different types of F/I going at it. and the mustard.................lol

Have you ever driven one? I didnt necessarily like it at first either, but after driving one I gained a whole new respect. I actually really liked it there. The only issue I foresee is stop and go traffic. You'd have to hold your arm up and eventually that would get irritating. BUt as far as grabbin gears in a rip, I totally approve of the placement

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

no ive never driven one. im thinking about starting a list of cars i want to test drive when i hit 18...a 7G si might be up there.

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

nice vid..i hated thos cars when they came out, but i no this one guy who had one and it was soo nice, and now i love them...i was looking at getting one a wile back but there soo expensive ,even used..

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

I freaking cant fit in them! I wish i could cuz they looked fast! So the video was shot inside the Si witht he tsx engine? and his had a supercharger while the other one was a K20 with a turbo charger? I dont understand what happens in a miss shift? They just grind the gears or what?

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

Didn't watch the vid.. But a miss-shift is when you miss the next gear because you don't have the clutch depressed far enough, and yes you'll hear a grind.

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

The K24 one is the one miss-shifting, on every clean run the TSX powered EP was pulling

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

OH i thought the one the camera was in was the turbo k20a3

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

Nope the camera car was the K24

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

looked like a ricer flyby on the mustang...

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

nice vid marty makes me wish i had my si ep back

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

MAn i have always loved those cars... even if they are overweight and underpowered... i want one, and have always wanted one. nice vid

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

that was a sweet video of some newer civics. there isnt much out about turbos on the newer cars i dont think anyway.

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

Yea that charged TSX was pretty crazy.. but the blue SI wasn't getting walked on either.. both those cars could take names on the street.. very well done..

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

I wishI had somemoney... boy the things I could do...

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

Nice vid Marty. Can you answer a few MOD questions for me tho when you have time hahahahaha!!!!!

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

Said it once and I'll say it again.

For Honda's; turbo > supercharger all day long.

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

Not the case in this Vid and Cutt hit me up on aim or pm me

RE: K24 SC vs a K20A3 turbo'd
 

I have to agree with some others on this one.

At first i did no like the ep3's that much. I mean, in my civic ex with full bolt ons, my friends brand new ep3 could BARELY pull from me at all, and only at the botttom of every gear with the extra torque, at the top of each gear i was holding my own. But there is something about them that can only be conveyed by driving one. After driving my friends, i must admit that I LOVE them. There is just a feeling of quality that is not able to be transmitted through just video or pictures. The shift knob, while awkward to first timers takes like 20 seconds to get used to and then you love it. So sure they are kinda slow for an si, and they are kind of overweight, but they sure do not feel like an entry level car, which the civic is.

Thanks for the vid marty, it was great!
