My friend has an '02 Spec V he got last month, with an AEM CAI. It was his first time ever at the track. He ran a 15.212 @ 90.12mph with a 2.2 60' foot. Damned good time if you ask me!

I was really impressed, that car has sooo much torque for what it is, it feels like a 6.

:)

I am impressed. My buddy cant decide between a rsx type s or a spec v. I guess I will be showing him this. Is there any other mods out there or is anybody making some right now?

HS just developed some headers fro the spec v.

Well there are a couple CAI's, exhausts can always be custom made, and Hotshot said they have 5 weeks left on the header.

dont forget to show him the difference in the price on the window sticker

I don't know long term I think the Acura is a better value. And there will always be more parts available. I like them both it would be a difficult choice.

thats a good time.. hes a good driver, (2.2 60'ft on stock tires on 17".. thats really good)
there were two spec v's at etown the other day, one ran a 15.3 with I & E (dont know if it was a catback or just a muffler) , and the other a 15.6 (dont know what it had)

Yeah, we were all suprised. And it was his very first time at the track too.

Yeah. Thats great driving. Is good to see hotshot making some parts. I was afraid that nobody was going to make parts for it. Maybe greddy will try to make an exhaust here soon.

Thats an impressive time hes got there, especially for his first time at the track. That cold air seems to be doing a world of good for the spec v. Thats a very sweet time for one mod. hmmm....spec v, or rsx type s....theres about an 8 to 10 thousand dollars savings with the spec v, so, he could turbo the car, and still be saving thousands compared to the rsx. :)

Whoa, you sure dude???

I was out car window shopping and I found a white Spec V on saturday with a price of $20k, and when I was out with my friends looking for the TypeS they were stickered at $25k.

Ride in a Spec-V and and RSX-Type S back-to-back, and you'll quickly see wherer that extra $5,000 is. You can hear some of it when you shut the doors.

Good times for the Spec-V. Just wish it didn't fall flat on its ass above 5 grand.

I havent rode in a rsx. Dealer took me around in a spec v but when I went to the type s dealer they wanted to do a credit check and crap first so I said forget this. Which is better?

True the rsx type s is going for around 25k or more, but the se-r is supposed to be around 18 grand. Either that dealer was marking it up, or it had all the options possible. Thats what im thinkin anyway.
