Daamn right. With the right setup along with a good tune, td04 powered starbos can be beasts. Some of the cars my mates have whooped in theirs you would'nt even believe if I posted up lol.
I'll still have a crack at them in my ek9, but reccon I'll get owned. In the bends etc, now thats when I hope to flip the script:)
 
even wit a starlet wit that kinda power in the bends ul have them no problem...solid beam rear axle was a bad idea in starlets an they havent got a big enuf wheel base.
 
Ye. If they had IRS, they would be spot on. Dunno why Toyota opted to go the beam axle design tbh
 
ive bet
ep3 civic type r with exhaust and filter
accord type r
civic jordan
civic ek4 sir
subaru 555
megane turbo
toyota glanza

if toyota wanted to build a great handling car they would of:nice: but toyota built a cheap economical runaround mate,sure they are great when modded(with loads of mods) but the fact is the were produced as an economy car...i mean look at the suspension setup,very short wheelbase,solid beam rear axle......

whereas imo-> honda built the ek9 as a real drivers car where it can be pushed to its limits time and time again
 
Ye good point bro. A mechanic said something similar to me a few years back, when I had my swift gti, i.e. He said suzuki pretty much went to town with the swift,whereas the starbo was designed to be cheap runaround as you said.
 
Not an EK9 i know, but my eg3 with b16b.

Beaten:

Ep3
EG6
Std ITR
Std EK9
Scooby STi 2006 (on track, just didnt have the extra umpf to get passed him)
Std S14A 200SX

Kept up with:
300bhp S14A 200SX
Modded ITR

And my fav was a 06 plate Porsche Carrera 4 which i kept up with till my speedlimiter :D
 
In my EJ6

Beaten:
Maxima
G6 GTP
CRX
05-07 Mustang GT (only cause he saw the cop and I didn't :p needless to say I was pulled over)
V6 Explorer Eddie Bauer edition (co-worker)
Zenki S13 - Friend's, still had the crappy KA24E SOHC
94-97 Accord - great way to end last day at work. Some ricer buzzed up to me on my way home and I put him in his place twice.
05 V6 Mustang - another friend
Other random vehicles (mostly ricers)

been smoked by:
Friend's 06 CBR600RR. That Sumbitch is scary fast.

what's funny is the best races were with regular cars like the Maxima or G6. I've walked practically everything else that's tried to race me (POS ricers with no power).

What engine you running? Mods?

Sounds like a good few races there!
 
B16A2 from a 99 EM1, with AEM Short Ram intake, 7lb flywheel, Exedy Stage 1 clutch, custom exhaust, no name eBay muffler, stock exhaust manifold in my EJ6 hatch.
 
old thread thought I might bring it back since last night I just whooped a Holden VZ SS Ute with loud exhuast(370-380bhp, 1700kgs+ car) with the 9.... lol

started on an uphill climb into a level staight road. The Holden was daring me with his throttle, so I from 1 car lengths behind we were fullthrottle from 2nd gear 40kmph.....by the time in 4th gear 150kmph when I lifted my foot off the throttle, I was 1 full car lengths ahead, which is about 1.5 EK9 lengths ahead. :woot:

2 months ago, I was at the lights with my DC2R. Skyline GTS25T with exhuast, BOV, Intake etc. So this guy started on me by revving the **** out of his car in Neutral and did a standing still burnout at the lights........I was like wtf??......... 'ok wise guy, lets see what you got'........held the revs to 6000rpm..... lights green....bang.....didn't expect such a burnout from the ITR but by the time it got grip I was already 1 car lengths ahead...... what a dumbass, embarassed himself with his friend...... end of 2nd gear 3 car lengths ahead.......slowed down till about 60kmph in 2gear waiting for him for a rolling start........bang again, by the time end of 3rd gear, 1 full car lengths ahead.........at the next lights he asked me, "How Much You Paid For That?"

LMAO!!!
