Killed an Eclipse

This is my first post but I had to share. I have a red 98 Civic EX with a air filter, 15" Konigs, and apexi style exhaust. Well I line up next to this silver eclipse. It looked like the one that was before the new model. Like a 98 or something. It was really nice looking (exhaust, 18's, body kit, cf hood) and had a few stickers on it. It said GS on the back so I thought it was the non-turbo model but I could here one of those blow valve off things like in the fast and the furious when he was truing to catch me. Well anyway we both take off and he pulls about 2 car lengths on me and keeps pulling up and till about 70mph when his brake lights came on. Nevertheless I wasn't done racing so I fly by his ass like he was standing still. The only thing that sucked about that race was I ended up getting a speeding ticket for 92 in a 65 which I didnt mind because I didnt get one for racing. I hate people who dont finish the race. So I beat him.

He probably did because I heard his blow valve off . Thats unfair to use nos. I probably would have spanked him if he didnt use it.

i was really confused by this story.. i had to read it like 4 times.. but i FINALLY got it..

first up... you said.. i hate it when people "never finish a race"... how do you finish an illegal street race????
when someone wrecks.. you gotta know when to say when...

second.. you didnt beat the eclipse he slowed down b/c of a cop

third.. you ended up w/ a ticket... which sucks for you

so techincally the way i see it.. you lost??
im not tryin to be rude, or hate on anyone... but you didnt technically kill an eclipse.. b/c he ate you up until he hit his brakes. He hit his brakes when he saw the cop... or whatever.. until he felt he proved his point by having 2 car lengths and pulling.

if i read it wrong.. forgive me...
none the less welcome to the board!!!

and a blow off valve is a valve that bleeds boost from a turbo out when you let of the throttle. it is something all turbo'd cars must have, he probobly didnt use nos if you didnt see him purge it when you lined up. id watch out of dsm's (eclipes's and talons) they are fast cars(the gst gsx and tsi) they run 15 flat 1/4 mile time with the right driver and even faster in the gsx. either way, if you enjoyed the kill good job, its not the way i like to win but to each his own.

Sucks about the ticket. Maybe he slowed down because he say a cop or his radar detector was going nuts.

Wow, you guys should actually be proud of the members of this board. I figured for a story like that you guys would flame me like no other. I do not drive a honda actually. I didnt post this to piss any of you guys off but actually just to see how you guys would reply to it. Its almost funny going to different boards and seeing how bad people flame each other for having an auto, having a sticker, etc.... Im surprised!! Sorry for the waste of space, I was bored, plus I wanted to see the honda owners reaction. Good job.

Even thought they are different setups the ideas the same.. Ive got several friends that owns DSM and honda/acuras.. Its cool to see how they are simialr and different..

thanks guys..

Del Sol kill....

Well, out of the vain of being on a honda's message board...there was this one dude who had a Del Sol with a B18 transplant. I guess he was feeling pretty confident so one evening as I was making a turn, I heard his very loud buzzy exhaust coming up behind me. I let him come up to my side and then downshifted to second. My rpm's flew up to about 4000 rpm's and my turbo started to mad spool. All I could hear was the loud whoosh sound even over his large 5" exhaust tip. His engine must have been revving as loud as 6-7000 rpm's becuase it was just screaming.

Anyhow, if any of you have ever been in a turbocharged car and felt the onset rush of boost as it throws you back, just as quickly as I downshifted, I tore a bout 4-5 car lengths in a matter of a couple of seconds. As we approached the stop light, he wouldn't even look over and quiuckly turned off.

Actually, he's turned out to be a pretty cool guy once I talked to him later on. I actually think it's pretty cool he did a whole engine transplant. But turbo power...there just doesn't seem to be an alternative to it for imports.

Hi there, welcome to HS!


Must have been fun to eat up that Sol..

I noticed you have an ESi, so that is non turbo I believe.

So what type of turbo did you strap on, and how much boost ?

This my only real kill...
I was at a light coming home from work and my friend rolls up next to me in his jetta, i look over and ask if he wants to go, he says yes so its on, light turns green, i bog a little and he spins his tires, but we are neck and neck, i hear him shift into second and i am at about 5600 rpm so i am still going, i get to about redline and shift and its over, i pulled on him and got about 10 car lengths, and what he said next surprised me cause he usually makes excuses for everything, but what he said, damn, your car has gotten fast, i smiled and said sure.

damn that brake pedal

Yeah, one time I was racing this Honda. Within a 1/8 of a mile a had beaten him so badly I decided to push that brake pedal. MAN, I couldn't believe it! A few seconds later he blew by me and won the race! I was absolutely devastated! My life as an ECLIPSE driver will never be the same again.

Ricer Flyby

Most hondas here are rice. Type R EX's everywhere. IF u beat them, they do the ricer flyby and calim a win like that. After u slow because they are obviously beaten, they keep going and act like u lost. I'm glad to see that every Honda owner isn't like that.

Thanks for the welcome!

Actually I prefer to take on mostly domestics and other turbo cars since it's a little more fair. But anyone here I'm sure will answer the call when revved upon.

Yes, it is a non-turbo that's been turbo'ed. You can't believe how many non-turbo eclipses that have been turbocharged.

As my sig says, I have a Mistubishi 16g with a larger 10cm compressor housing (hence called the Super 16g). With an intercooler I boost about 7-8 lbs of boost. I could go up to 10 lbs pretty safely, but I like it just fine around town at about 7-7.5lbs.

I'm not trying to start anything with you bro, but you keep talking about ricers in Hondas and I see that your car has flames, fangs on the front and Altezza lights on the back. To me you fit the description pretty well yourself.
