was this on factory rubber? what kind of tires? This guy could have one hell of a gem on his hands. I've heard that engines can have +/- 5hp straight from the factory...

16 flat in a nearly stock protegeLX/EGT IS possible:

ScortAdict, 95 EGT 5-speed: only mod is 14 degree advance in timing, he runs a 15.951 1/4th @ 87.54mph, heres the timeslip:

Neumanspeedescort, (one of the fastest nearly stock ones that i have ever seen) his only mods are advance timing, cone filter(just filter NOT full intake) no A/C, no rear seats, 140,000+ miles on car, and here is his timeslip. left slip is 15.591 @88.44 / right slip is 15.611 @88.16 and here it is:

and if i find neumans other slip from when he went to the track the first time i'll post that one as well... he ran a 16.04 his first night out

RX7_2nr: yes someone even from your own list, his stock 5speed DX SOHC with a whopping 17 less HP than the DOHC ran 16.6 STOCK at the track (which is what a lot of you DOHC guys say your 5-speed runs) heres his slip:

while this isn't 16 flat, it just goes to show your that 1/4 times are pretty relative in relation to the driver/condition of car/ etc...


i could post more but im to damn lazy right about now...

That was on a hot day, about 90 degrees.

well i dont know wut the weather was that day but i was wearing jacket and it was sunny but not hot it was kinda cold. perfect weather for race i'd say. and like i said his LX was STOCK TO THE BONE even the wheels his rollin on 14" stock w/ 185/65 cheap tires too.....let me say this again STOCK !!! that means no slick tires if ur wondering!

sweet....

i ran a 15.592 @ 88.44 the weather was about 55 degrees at eh hottest. i mean i was in a fleece pull over and was still a bit jittery. but then again the jitters could have been adreniline. :) i ran it with these mods:

14 degrees advanced timing
no rear seat
no a/c
no spare tire crap
civic short shifter
195/50/15 street tires at 26 psi
open air filter (not full intake)
borla bro-speed muffler just welded to the stock exhaust
140,000+ miles on motor

that is it no more no less

NEUMAN

i can beat 2.4
 

i remember i felt happy when my 94 dx beat a 240sx it was cool. my pro is all stock except for a custom intake. i run high 15"s with a rebuilt motor and tranny. so 16 is not as fast as it should go.

I guess I'm just not as smart as you, dude.

Did the 96 plus civic have a different motor?

96 ex sohc vtec
lx sohc non vtec
dx sohc non vtec

99-00 civic si 160 hp

Civics aren't that fast at all. Even Si(R)s. But it sure is easy to make them go fast.... I haven't had the honour of beating one yet...I seem to never find them when I'm cruising...I've beat lots of Integras though....

Ok guys seems a miata guy thinks your all bullshiting about your time slips ..

Please explain your slips to him .Jon

I'd be willing to travel a few hundred miles if he wants to meet at a dragstrip. :)

tell him to consider first gens, not the protege 5 ;)

The guy thinks are cars are yugos. does anyone have proof that are cars run mid 16's?. like video proof of timeslips proving it ?..thanx Jon
