I have an Insight, was turboed but after the MPGs went to crap and the it still wasn't remotely fast I bought a viper instead and put the insight back to stock, lol.
If I could get my hands on a cheap insight shell i would find a recked RSX type S and swap all that shit in plus some internals and maybe boost. the all aluminum body of the insight is genius to swap!
@CaMaRo1RoC89- correction man, Mustangs and Beamers are Overrated! Goats are VERY underrated for what it's potential really is, which is why you can buy a 5.7L 350hp M6 Goat for under $20k now a days. Plus Theyre as rare to spot as a Ferrari! And much like your IROC man, its got "lots of bang for your buck!" so I think you had your facts upside down/=
@SICKJ0KER Speak for yourself. I am a "true" car enthusiast and I think that K20 insight is awesome. Also, if you think I am a honda fanboy check my page.
kudos to the mods...but really At the end of the day, what do you have? an insight.... insurance sees it as an insight, the girls see it as an insight, you might be outta sight in the insight but really a crack house with a grand piano...is still a crack house ;-)
@jacob0403 not necessarily true, just because the insight weighs a lot less doesn't mean it will make up for the traction issues when racing a fwd car from a dig. A good driver launching a rwd car should be able to take a fwd car with the same power to weight ratio every time.
@Marshmallowrex I feel ya man. Not everybody is the same though. Maybe you need to move to get some good races. People here run any and everything. Light to heavy, 4yls to v8s. Nice dyno numbers by the way.
I don't understand why people get so mad about these videos. Anyone can search and find whatever they want beating whatever they want to see lose. If you want cheap speed get a honda mod and gut the interior. But past a certain age thats not something ideal to pick up a girl in to go on a date. Stock for stock we already know what was faster anyway...and what car the ladies rather ride in.
Anything can be fast though. Period. Money makes it happen.
@kageryu311 still depends on the heads/cam combination. this one did not accelerate like a LOW 11 sec car - not to mention the low 11 H/C C5 vettes that run low 11´s are planted on sticky dragstrips with sticky drag radials which are in most cases not even street approved. so this was more of a high 12 sec C5 vette (street condition) even if it had an aggressive H/C combination.
Yep... piece of shit honda, which is why it smoked the cars made in America... People need to think about what just happened in this video before they wanna bash on imports.
Great. Now all the import fanboys are going to run out and get an Insight and try to race. And then sheer hilarity will ensue when they forget that this Insight was properly built for the task while their car is still powered by a lawn mower.
It's funny how some people are quick to conclusions when they see V8's get beaten by 4cyl cars, especially Hondas, and say "oh it has a fully built motor and blah blah." It only takes a stock short-block and a good flowing head to make good power on a NA K20.
@ThatDumpedAssWhiteLS dont forget about the swap in a smaller car.same thing would happen if i threw in that corvette motor in a rx-7.has to go mod for mod in my eyes.
@ThatDumpedAssWhiteLS I can argue that the faster that corvette goes the more of a advantage it has and the top end speed of that corvette is way higher than any rice burners.
False, Check out top secret, they have V-12 Supra's, Skylines, and Silvias that all have over 800HP and do 200MPH+. Don't get it twisted and think all imports is shit sir cause you can get a rude awakening real quick. I'm into exotics but there are mad imports out there that can run quarter miles and hit a corner. I've seen enough of them in person to become a believer so you can think what you want.
@ghettopettingzoo But this isn't a video of a top speed race, now is it? Stop bringing outside shit where it doesn't belong. In this video, the "rice burner" just burned some American rice. /End of story.
that honda was built, upgraded, and designed to be raced like that by the owner. it has had a ton of work done to it to make it that fast. the vette and the gto looked to still be mostly stock, and probably were. I am a huge American V8 guy, but fast is fast and you cant argue with that.
@CJAEY that is exactly right. fast is fast, and when its proven, no matter how much you hate the car that is fast, you really cant argue it. fast is fast. its that simple.
How embarrassing would this be? Got out ran by a Hybrid 4 banger, if i was the Vette and GTO drive i would go home and park it. Honda's be getting it done and i just love it when you outrun that LSX and they always got an excuse, "i spun"," your car is a little Jap tin can", yea its light but i got less than half the motor of you i always say, or"my nitrous didnt work", and i always say "you need 6 liters and a 100 shot to out run my little Honda?", and they get mad as hell.
@c1110670 lol @ throwing away money? i put probably 7k including buying the insight. one of the perks of owning a shop. the owner of the vette and the GTO threw more money away if u put it that way. lol
beat a H/C corvette ??!!! Dam that insight is no joke!
