Seen the video before-- That is a good RSX and an average 350z driver-- It seemed like the Z was pulling @ the end, but still-- 13's out of a n/a 2.0 ltr is a fast friggin car. good post jc.

yeah the z guy looked like he missed 2nd because he was running with the rsx after his launch even though the acura had a .5 sec headstart because of the dial in. those little acuras have a killer top end of course the z does too

the rsx does deserve alot of credit. It is the car I just traded in for the Z. I only had intake and hondata done and I was running 14.0@100. With a good driver just like any car they can be fast

That RSX took off pretty fast. That's one fast RSX though. Too bad the 350Z is not mod friendly like the RSX.

Yep, the Z definately missed 2nd you can even hear in it the vid. I used to do that all the time when I first started draggin' my Z. It got so bad at one outing that my GF got pissed at me for f*cking up each pass . The RSX's can be made to be pretty quick. There's one at my local drag strip that's running 13.6's all motor. If they were RWD or AWD I'd definately have one.
