2003 - Accord - LX V6 2 Door Coupe

[shohoku]

Anyone who has the model, how much of horse power does it have? Some say it has 240, but some say it has 200. Which one is correct?

 

[tnitsuj]

240 but not much torque

 

[NutBucket]

240 and its plenty fast. I think Kev1n has one.

 

[isasir]

240. The prior model had 200.

6th Gen V6 = 200
7th Gen V6 (2003-2004) = 240

KEV1N does have one. I have the I4 in both of my 04 sedans. The I4 has great power for a 4 but the 6 is amazing. Although if I wanted something decently fast I'd just buy a sports car and not a wannabe sports coupe.

Yup I have one, it's rated at 240 HP and 212 lb-ft of torque. I actually just ran it at the track on Wednesday... I managed a 15.0, completely stock, including tires.

Wow. That's not that quick. I hope you were powerbraking. I know the 6-speed guys are managing mid-low 14's.

Yeah, I couldn't break into 14s. I didn't brake torque. Yes I've seen 6-speeds do as fast as 14.2 but unfortunately there's only so much you can do with the auto.

Ohhh that's an auto. That's not bad for an auto I don't think.

You should. You could easily break 14 if you did IMHO.

A lot of people would consider 212 lb/ft on a 240 hp car to be "not much" -- mostly people that like "old school" cars and power.

I'll try it next time, but I wont' be going back soon. I went with my buddy who has the AEM V2 intake and he was averaging 15.3. I've accepted the fact that the Accord is more of a comfortable cruiser and not really a 1/4 mile beast.

As far as upgrades.. I only have the Comptech rear sway bar and XM commander mounted in the ashtray. I think I will do more stereo next.

How fast did you do 0-60?

2.414 seconds for 60' ... but 0-60 MPH? I don't know!

Just to clarify, that's 0-60 feet🙂 If you were power braking that number should be down near 2 seconds flat.

how about 0-60mph ? 🙂

 

[RagingBITCH]

Yo sandwich boy 🙂 You won't need speaker harnesses, at least for the rears, and I suppose the front as well.

Woohoo audio!!!

Within first 2 months I got my 02 Accord SE, I took it up to Clear Lake on CA-29. Realized very quickly that racing machine it is not, my 96 handled better.

How far of a drive is that anyway? If I lived in that area I'd probably do the same.

Davis to Sac Raceway is about.... 20 minutes to half a hour.
Davis to Sears Point is about an hour and a half.

That's not so far. My "local" track is a good hour away; when there's no traffic.

I'm just saying... why go to Sears Point instead of Sac Raceway?
