who has a b18 non-vtec head? not my 2.4, and the type s is a 2.0

where is a 1.8 head come into this?

Hope I'm quoting this all correctly... but Accord 4cylinder is 190hp. Type-S RSX is slightly over 200hp. The RSX is lighter. The RSX TypeS has a more "high performance engine"... etc. Probably a fairer match-up would be a base RSX vs a base accord. The new accord is fat.

its a K20Z1 DOHC i-VTEC

210hp, lighter, shorter gearing and 8000+rpm rev limit.

Since when do K20's with DOHC i-VTEC come with a b18 non-VTEC head? :lmao:

Type-S is gonna win...it's 1) lighter 2) more HP 3) shorter overall gearing with smaller gaps between gears (6mt)

no, k20a2 is the 02-04 rsx-s k20z1 is the 05-06 with a more aggressive head, and i believe they used jdm ITR cams for it.

Denial is not good. Why are you being so immature? Go look up some dynos and 0-60 times, then you can tell me what's overrated.

as a previous GSR owner and current coupe owner, the RSX-S and my old GSR would stomp an 8th gen I4. Its comparing apples vs. oranges. K24 is an econo engine.

Street racing isn't condoned...luckily Sacramento/SF have Infineon in Sonoma that holds Wednesday Night Drags. Still, I'm going to close this thread, because the point has been proven

Just accept it that your brothers RSX is faster and move on with life. Or trade your I4 in for the V6 6MT.
