l98 iroc vs. gsr civic hatch
okay my friend just got a civic hatchback with an integra gsr motor swap. his ratings are 170 hp and 128 tq. his redline is 8200rpm and his car weighs around 2000. i drive an 88 iroc with the l98 700r4 package. were gonna do two kinds of races, one from a dead stop, and one from a 40 roll. who do you think will win in either case?? any opinions will help.

if its a stock GSR motor, then i think you will pull it off, but it will be very close.
my friend has a GSR with cams and full exhaust, gutted out pretty good, and it goes mid high 13's according to original owner. other GSR hatches i seen go near 100mph traps and thats well near most bolt on L98s
from a dig, if he cant launch , i think you have him. from a roll it will be closer but i think you'll top out higher than he will.
do you have the 3.27 gears? that will be a big help

The GSR motor (B18C1 I think?) can be made pretty quick when put in a car that only weighs 2000 pounds, even in NA form.
That said, I still believe you will win both races. If you can launch your car well, the race from a dig will be yours. From a roll it will be close, but I think you'll have a good shot to pull out the win. Do you have any mods to your car? Does he have any mods to his besides the swap?

like i said, most cars i seen with GSR's with cams and good tune, bolt ons will do mid higer 13's at 100-102mph.. some hit lower 13's on slicks
mild bolt on aka exhaust only GSR is close to 185-190hp on motor i would believe. up from the stock 170hp crank rating.
cams and tuning will get them up over 200whp. in a 2000lb car thats pretty dangerous.
