On the RSX-S V-tec kicks in at 6,000 runs to 8,000. what i was talking about with shiftpoints is, horsepower peaks at 7,800 in his car, if you shift at 7,800 every gear, as opposed to 8,000 in every gear your gonna get different times, but certain cars you can shift at 7,800 in gears 1 and 2, and 8,000 in 3 and 4. all depends on the driver a lot of trial and error. personally my car runs fastest when i shift at 6,000 in first and second and 6,500 in third.

Default Re: Type R Wing Group Buy *CLOSED*

the Vtec on the S kicks in at 5800rpms..

VVTL-I .. and yeea.. it hits hard.. but comes in a late.. thats the only reason why its such a hard car to drive..
the reason why u beat the GT-S was cause its an auto.. the auto on that car is ridiculously slow.. almost a second slower.. cause the gearing is horrible.. and lands out of lift every shift...

dweet, I have to agree with you that Gtechs are not very accurate and many things could affect the times, but lets not start this 15-14 second argument again.
