Mountain Mouse RX-7 vs EG Civic Uphill Touge Battle '03

[Mufasa769]

lol Honda steer ftf

[DcEvoIX]

this road is very mild needs harder turns and some blind hill turns those are always exciting and that civic is the reason you don't cut springs or put lowering springs on stock struts they make the rear very unstable and they skip on turns

[ZBHampton]

its not touge if your in america. its just called driving fast up a hill. well not really fast in this vid but you know what i mean

[kayu38]

It's not a race if you obey the speed limit.

[KiwiSama]

LOL!!!!

[MrSort11]

go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go

[wajalama]

Why uphill? FWD has bad traction uphill, if you know that.

[briantakumi]

zZzZz... zZzZz... -.-

[SpeedJunkie1]

Lol nice cruise.

[lyleredef9]

r these guys racing or just scooping the section out?

[DjRjSolarStar]

@lyleredef9 Apparently racing considering their tires are screeching.

[TaLoCc]

lol everything about this is wrong! someones gonna die!

[6thdrift]

ha ha fwd geting sucked up in the corners

[HomeWreckerA1]

Fun Fun, how fast were u guys goin?

[on1zukas3ns31]

LOL at double laning

[stobodort]

LOL

[palefaced1]

WOW a d series in a eg. Never thought that would stay in there, lol

[GMK20]

Nah get to know the road then try your best

[vr6tgoes]

racing honda's is like the special Olympics no boby wins lol

[vtecboi18]

@vr6tgoes id take a nsx over a rx-7 but hey thats me lol

[blah23]

INITIAL D MEXICAN STAGE 3 BRO.

[Ratava252]

@blah23 LOL!

[TacoManTuesday]

@blah23 BAHAHAHA!!!

[trixy07]

is this in so cal?

[likess]

for ppl with fwd cars.. BRAKE LESS STEER MORE.. LMFAO @ BOTH CARS 100HP LMFAO HAHAAHAHHAAH THATS HILARIOUS !!!

[mozezima123]

get some ajustys u faggot and stop cuting ur springs

[shogunjosex]

beleive me...this shit is so fucking scary...

[streetlunatic008]

lol at the footage.

feel like im watching an episode of COPS.

[Cordius]

Cut springs are NOT a suspension UPGRADE. It's a DOWNGRADE.

[Tuze]

@Cordius

@streetlunatic008

oh man.. so hilarious

[Cordius]

Not bad don't get me wrong, but still very amateur.

[Cordius]

I respect both cars, but stock springs are the stupidest idea ever. You're not increasing sprint rates, you're increasing the possibility of bottoming out.

[NightHowl92]

you guy s want o see some scary touge search (Big Tomson canyon - the narrows)

[ceejaayxx]

didn't seem so scary.

[NightHowl92]

Its a lot worse in person

[NightHowl92]

that civic needs to be on the downhill run because he is under powered and fwd

[likess]

okay not to be a dick but how you honda be braking at a turn im suprise you didnt understeer.. it's like this you about to come to a sharp left turn shift dwn but put your foot on the pedal dnt brake at all just brake in case something happns.. but man that rx7 was punking that honda lol.. thats hilarious..

[dirtbikemike69]

OMG... This is funny shit.

[marlo916]

lol cut springs... just 3 inches lower and all of a sudden he thinks he's NightKids EG6 in initial d. lol. fail

[HalcyonTy]

double laning? come on..

[99cham1]

lol whats the point of racing if ur just going to stay in ur line? the whole point is to chose ur own line.

i say go to a track or race later in the night and get organized

[Tj1056]

@99cham1 ok well u can ride on other side of road where traffic is ^^

[RICEFREAK]

Going uphill with stock cars....hmmm u guys should've went downhill

[xiongs13]

Sorry but from my experience of touge u don't need a strong motor to be fast at touge it is all about foot work

[iceicebuddha]

LOL @ cut springs

[nissanlover]

@iceicebuddha  hahaha thats exactly what i was thinking

[lini2009]

LOL @ 100 WHP.

[xikods]

u guys dont know how to corner.. lol and with those weak cars...

[alwjmonster]

LOL SOHC engine?

[nissantwoforty]

was this at azusa canyons? looks familiar..

[techlos1]

With those pretty much stock cars, u shud have done downhill.

[Hapsmash]

I agree, the uphill is a turbo sport. Downhill for these cars would have been more exciting.

[SDSakuragi]

Uphill is safer in stock cars. The RX7 will be more stable with weight on the back and the EG is less likely to cook its stock brakes. Also for most novice drivers, they feel like they can push harder on the uphill due to a more stable feeling from the back end and thus can drive confidently and safely increase their abilities.

While I agree a low hp car is much more fun on the downhill, old suspension + stock brakes can cause some serious safety issues.

[crowdcontrol792]

lol @ safety issues on a street racing video. Sorry, you're right, but its still funny.

[SOCALxJEALOUS]

@SDSakuragi  wow,,,two thumbs up for the real good comment ...i wouldnt mind taking the hills with you...

[theblackmech]

FB should have the disadvantage being that its rear suspention is a live axle VS independent like the fc and fd

[DensetsuAE86]

Lol, why would you drive a 100hp Civic on the uphill. My Accord is nearly 200hp and I don't do uphill much. And yeah, your lines are pretty average, especially the Civics!

[boomstick900]

lolz.

[ShautyBeats]

dude they weren't even racing properly... The civic was a pussy keeping in his own lane, while the rx-7 quickly goes back to his own lane when he sees light...

[bboyHungjuse]

omg mild mods? the eg doesn't even have headers or a proper intake. so i think the driver is a mild mod...

[weewoodeal]

lol

[ANNoize]

dude u guys take like worst possible lines and are sloppy like u cant keep still during a turn like ur constantly stabilizing ur car, try to overcome that and ull become better

[platinumprinc3]

lol that rx-7 fb is slow

[roytboga]

civic=grocery getter

rx7= cheap sports car

you decide

[elchicoboy]

rx7's are not cheap damn it! -_- specially when they're fully built... :|

[Innes]

lol@cut stock springs

[Dondarkcatcher]

Omg lol how stupid is he? Didn't noticed it until I read your post haha!

[Shand85]

DROP A FUCKING A GEAR AND GO!!!

[shadow0001]

Agreed!

[WaKtO]

DOUBLE AGREED

[Zeron18]

Civic lost. Haha...Front wheel drive = understeer lots. Uphill is all about who can keep their RPM's higher coming out of the turns, giving more push on the straights.

But remember: Share the road, dont hog it.

[inserthere212]

its fine to cut with a saw with coolant but if you cut it with a torch or sawzall.... well bad news

[81kamill]

I agree with the cut springs thats one hell of a death wish.....

U guys did alright but hopefully u guys got some decent springs n all^^

[iRnoCracker]

that is not a good touge road, and stay on ur side of the road

[HinProductions]

Cut springs is a big no-no. You're sure to kill your dampers that way.

[AdeptRacer]

that civic was understeering like a beast huh?

[kidfifa]

its not drifting unless ur getting the backend out! poor vid 2star

[elcko123]

where does this video say anything about drifting?

[SRIreland1]

He doesn't say anything about drifting. Touge racing is a race on winding, usually uphill or downhill on mountain roads.

[ChrisHib01]

nice road, they probably could of attacked it more but still i thought it was a pretty good vid

[7DRFT]

chillin or real racing?

[BustedTuner01]

I own a stock RX-7 and without changing all those 17 yo parts it wont perform right, but Dude on this RX had pretty alright lines comparing to Civic. Your all like pros here but i dont see no following lines concept on wide turns from you.

[DAMNlNice]

haha, the Rx-7 is twice as fast .

[JDMeg6314]

I will agree with redprospect51 on one thing they are definitely inexperienced

[joniwhytestar]

seriously u guys driving looks really slow

[redprospect51]

A)Honda=Epic Failure Rx-7= Touge Car...SO WHAT DA FUCK WAS THAT!

B)When your double lanin on such wide turns it pretty much proves to me that your inexperienced.

C)Have you heard about the concept of following lines!? you have no Line skill at all and your bouncing around the road like a poser...

work on your driving...both of you (especially the Rx-7 for not having the balls to pass that idiot and leave that civic falling of some ledge like it deserves)

[zaonfantasy]

So umm, when did the race start?

[akinadownhillace]

I like how the SA22 used the shoulder of the road. He should have turned off his head lights to pass the EG6. It's so stupid but it works LOL!

[acroracing]

loll... 1.5 liters of joke..

[eSspin]

those lines were wack for the civic it was to slow ..civic's can be fast if you take the proper lines my civic would have been a better race...

[jdm27ef]

what would you expect its a d16a6 its not that fast tho what do you have under the hood dohc?

[JDMeg6314]

actually he has the stock cx model motor which is the D15 SOHC

[polymau]

Congrats, eSspin, you have a better Civic than some one else.

[Nerdbag001]

hehe mild suspension as in cut springs?

that was a slow vid

good lines though

[krew126]

Lol that's what I thought when I saw the mild suspension.

[Shadowboost]

cut springs is like asking to die

[jdm27ef]

lol that made me think to at the first time i saw this i was like mild suspension wtf was that then i saw cut springs haha i just lol its suicide ahahah

[giantsocks]

seems to me the 7 driver is a lil affraid of the car he is smooth but not revn the engine high enough

[DENIO90]

I totally agree the rx7 should of left the eg civic for dead and this coming from the driver of a similar civic

[DreEzed]

LOL mild suspension upgrades, as in cut springs nice.

[hybridEP3]

these things are hella slow

[aceDrifter]

that first gen has an amazing inside line. i believe he could have fit throught the gap on that one turn, i love doin that in my FC.

[MichaelBrown86]

although the civic is a tard for cutting his springs, atleast he realized where the money should go first... TIRES. Falken Azenis are a great choice

[spikeinitup]

to riconator. that is an 83 rx-7, 10 years older than your miata and catching up to a 90's civic. in my opinion the rx-7 is better than your miata because it was an engineering marvel (the rotary engine), it was actually race worthy AND it won the le mans one year. a 93 rx-7 would definitely leave your car in the dust. So shut your face

[hardendafukup]

civic dude get a proper engine mate, atleast drop a b16a on da honda civic, wtf is dat shytty engine, nothing is wild u guys just ricers booo booo

[DoriKindeAmerica]

I couldn't tell when the race started since the rx7 was already on the EG's ass.

[Riconator]

Both these cars are slow.. My 93 miata Limited Edition is faster.

[ae86initalD]

When your doing touge speed is not everything.

[xnavigator]

Regardless, A '93 Miata probably would've outrun both cars.

[mrmanuk2000]

rx7 are not slow int miata 1.6?

[bluekazuma]

not seeing much lol lame ass civic with lamer diver an modest 7 thats holding back in my (my opinion)

[tonyjoo]

wow. why would you get azenis when u have cut springs???? cut springs handle even worse than normal.....its not a mod, its a handicap..

[rotaryoutlaw]

sorry to say....that civic was still in ricer stage. the only mod i seen was multi-power spark plug cables. the rest was stock...1.5 V-tec E. that 7 has a 3.80 final gear ratio, and it gets more torque to the wheels...there for it was quicker at the corner exits.

[trueno209]

these cars are underpowered for doing uphill. You guys should do downhill touges instead, because the lightweight chassis of your cars came come into play. Also, you dont need power that much when going downhill.

[RicerX06]

haha that civic is ghetto as hell.

[Shadowboost]

understeer at speed = teh lose

[dangerboy123]

the eg6 was scared to use the whole road but the 7 took advantage of it

[MRIlls]

did the dude with civic say somthing about mad skills? Cuz the 7 totaly killed him.

[h4inf]

very nice :)

[fc3sghost]

Fc for the win :)

[Kaneda916]

'83 RX7 is not FC...it's FB...1st gen RX7, look it up on google.

[mt1104]

Cut Stock Springs.... great. precision engineering out the window then.

[lasmith05]

zzzz

[STGMiata]

Rotary power. Nicly done to the driver of the 7. Way to hug those corners.

[CJAEY]

good footage touge.

[kggoh]

wow, initial D lame footage

[RotaryChild]

Who said this was initial D? haha,what an idiot

[jdmikeg4]

cut springs with azenis??? wtf??

[rhapsody1210]

Why hello Mr. Midway lookout point. Say Hi if you see a black FD on that road while they're still working the construction, I'll be sure to do the same. :P

[daedalx]

Unda, Undam Understeer.

[bboyHungjuse]

eg was dissapointing

[JaDeiM]

thats pretty sick touge footage...
