          My 750iL weighs in at 4200 LBS.
          An e34 M5 weighs 3800 LBS.
          The e30 weighs about 27-2800 LBS.

              Im not sure about the TSX, but I raced an RSX type S and pulled on him by 2 car lenghts to around 80mph. I was really suprised. My M20 had the valves adjusted and a complete tune up just days before and I have longtube headers and a straight pipe exhaust, but I thought he would have pulled on me..
              The same day I got spanked by a new Saab

                He couldn't drive.

                Bone stock RSX-S' will slaughter an M20. They will lay down 1/4 runs in the 14 second range all day, they are truly QUICK cars.

                FWIW, my sister has an '02 6-speed and it is definitely faster than my car (which has more mods than yours).

                      +1 . I had a chance to auto-x my buddies rsx-s with lsd, tein coilovers, hankook rs2 tires and hondata software and it was pretty damn impressive. Easily a low 14 second car.

                        I love these threads, the e30 will get handily whooped by MOST newer performance cars. That's just part of owning a "classic"

                          I love how people say they pulled on cars on the street as if it means something.

                            My wife's TSX is significantly quicker than any e30 I been in. Very nice car. Every time I drive it, I find it harder and harder to go back to my Frontier DD.

                              Nah, just some bolt-ons. M30 AFM, heatshielded intake, 17.5# S50 injectors, IE shorty headers, and MarkD 93 software tying it all together.

                              Basically enough to make the car a little more fun, but not enough to keep up with a K-series Acura.
