1537, GS-T racing
Posted by 2good2drop, Jul-27-02 10:05 AM
Any advice on racing a GS-T? My parts are pretty much stock (mostly appearance mods, and an air filter), i would love some advice on takeoff/shifting rpm, throttle positions, etc. As of now i just hit it up to 3500 rpm and slip clutch then pop it to take off, and slip a bit from 2nd to 3rd. I think i shift a little low, generally at 6200 rpm ish... sometimes to redline... would love advice i'm such a noobie!

get a turbo back exhaust system, as far as goin threw the gears, um....do it as agressive and fast as possible, unless you wanna take care of it,i would recommend to do it fast but not to grind the gears, you launching tech's sound good, do mods and make it faster, the guy with the most money in his car always wins, look at the freakish tiboron guy, twin motors arnt cheap, later

When he hits 3k rpm you'll see his tail lights that's all I have to say. I drove stock GST woohoo fast! 3k it slams you back into the seat.

A GST is nothing compared to a 420a with 15 psi. GST's run mid 15's stock. That is slow IMO. I was running better than that at 5 psi with no intercooler.

yeah but if you modded the GST like the 420a then the GST/GSX would be even faster :x..420as are good engines to mod though. At least no one does engine swaps like those gay civics with their prelude engines

stock gs-t isnt that fast i can kind of keep up and dont have alot done to my car.kind of and stock are the key words here, if he has any mods dont even bother. p.s. shift at the redline.
