Well I was merging onto Hwy 280 today and played a little bit with an Acura TSX. He was acting all like he had it going on with his new ride. Now, I'm no boy racer, but I was hoping to stage with him at a red light and show him the G's rear end. We came close to lining up but I was one vehicle behind...no go. So, what if we had run? With VDC off and just the right amount of wheelspin, I assume the G would have owned him. The TSX looks fast but I don't know what they've got under the hood. Anybody run one before?

 

It's quite slow, relatively speaking. He would have been an easy kill. Under the hood: 2.4L 4-cyl, 200HP.

 

Little not much faster than 4 cylininder accord so figure it out

"It's quite slow, relatively speaking. He would have been an easy kill. Under the hood: 2.4L 4-cyl, 200HP."

Yup, the vtec really doen't get its power until it hits around 5K rpm...I used to own an 97 prelude, 2.2L with 195HP, that thing was slow until I hit high rpms...

 

The tsx is pretty quick but will not have a chance at all against a G. My friend has one and he can never keep up with me.

thegr8tg35 - The tsx has i-vtec and so vtec engages in the low end and the high end of the rpm. They did that to give the tsx more low end power

 

Here're the specs for the TSX:

Top speed : 145 mph
0-60 mph : 7.0 sec.(manual)
0-¼ mile : 15.5 sec @ 90.0 mph(estimated)
60-0 braking distance : 130 ft(estimated)
200 ft skidpad : 0.78 g
