MCFaisal · 03-10-2007

which do you think would win, rsx type s or a slk230 Kompressor( Yr. 2001)

rsx type s has 200 bhp if im correct, not sure what the 230's are pushin. I dunno the Rsx is pretty light, looks like itll come down to the Drivers. Cuz i think the 230 has what like 210 bhp?

Actually, cars with less than 280hp is true but cars with over 280 is a false statement. Japanese automakers has this promise that they will not make cars over 280. So Skylines, WRX STi's, Evo's, NSX, etc. claim 280 but in fact, all dyno over 300hp. FYI.

I think the RSX will win due to the weight.

I'll say the SLK

Acura RSX Type-S
200 hp 143 ft-lbs
Curb Weight: 2840 lbs.
SLK 230 K
197 hp 206 ft-lbs
Curb Weight: 2888 lbs.

It's in the torque

Torque not horsepower wins races!

And What Ynot is very true, notice how the skyline GTR's dyno around 270's.... ya .... right.

Interesting, I didn't know the SLK was that light, I thought it was a 3100 lb car. Base on those numbers, I say the SLK now.
