depends stock rims make the stang look like every other stang on the road so I would change those. 4.10's are fun remember though you have to buy more than just the gears for the gear change. I would probably get rims/tires and then save up and get the gears. Basically depends on the budget. If it were me I would go rims first

Obvious choice here..lol. 4.10's won't make you all that much faster anyway so you may as well make the car look good in the mean time.

On a sidenote I saw a guy with a ford GT at a gas station and threw the car in reverse to get a view of it (residential road), got my camera out and took a pic and he saw me and waved and I gave him a thumbs up and shouted 'nice car!' and he 'thanks, nice wheels!'



It was good. lol

I would go rims. Yeah gears to go faster, but lets face it, were driving V6's, were still stuck in the slow bin even with the 4.10's.

that would mean 200-210 to the wheels? dude the newest RSX Type-S has only 200 at the crank. So Integras aren't going to have more than that stock.

when he said his friend has one and that its 180RWHP, since he said RWHP, I thought he was talking about his friend has a Mustang, not an Integra.

Well if he's talking about racing an integra, and then saying that his buddy has one that dynos at 180rwhp (pretty sure he just meant whp) and that he wanted to see who would come out on top at the track. Since he's asking about 4.10s or wheels, it's unlikely his asking if he's friends mustang can beat an integra, but rather if he put 4.10s on could he himself beat an integra.

as far as this supposed race.... dude, go to your local track and run the guy, see what happens. kinda lame to try and predict what might happen.

Lol..just do what I'm planning on doing..save a few grand over the year (this might become a difficult if I can't afford college), put a blower on, and be faster than most of the dumbass ricers in the area. Also GTs...screw 'em. I don't street race but I'd be so tempted to race some kid in his GT thinking he's about to destroy a 6 banger...if I ever do that I'll get a video..lol

if your friends integra dyno'd at 180whp I would guess he would beat you even with the 4.10's. Its a sad world for us, but we have 3100lb cars with 160rwhp~, and not sure if your like me, but if you have a crapmatic than it is taking more hp than necessary,as well as horrible shifts, where as your friends car is probably 2700-2800lbs and 180whp and overall likely faster than us, although you may take him off the line from having torque he will probably walk away from you once you guys are moving from having more hp and a lighter car.

from my own experiance. it depends on how well he can drive. stock vs stock its kind of a driver skill thing. frw<rwd<awd the launch will get it for u but whos to say he might not catch up.

if u get the 4.10s yes you WILL beat a 180hp acura. practice with them a bit and i PROMISE u will win......i did, and he was pushin i think a little over 180hp. did it in my friends 2000, just got some old flow masters an intake and 4.10s

u will win with the gears
