To run 12.3 you need some insane traction. If he doesn't have no tires or LSD he might be BS.

A turbo GSR can easily run 12's, the question is traction. If he has no LSD and runs on street tires, it would be hard to match those numbers. He could have been on slicks at the track. If anything race him from standing start, not on the highway.

I suppose anything is possible, but then again if its just what you listed and there isnt a decent tune or lsd like everyone else said I dont see him being able to turn those numbers.

Oh and if you bring up a good time like that i think pride would make you think he'd keep the time slip. So im gonna say he didnt come close to that.

my friends k20/superchared integra runs 12.2-12.3s on street tires. So, It's very possible.

in order to reach 12's in a GSR you NEED to be built. They run what 12.x:1 compression, way too much to boost much more than 5 psi. You need like 9:1 to reach 12's in a 'teg. I could be wrong...but whatever...

with about 25k you can run those times in an integra, it's really not that shocking. but yeah, its gotta be built. my friend has ls/vtec/turbo and its fully built, crazy money put into it, but its a highway monster.

It is not out of reach with the proper set up and slicks he could. I had a 2001 gsr with a drag 3 kit and hondata went 13.4 @ 108 on street tires and basic boltons. Then again I was at the track 2 weeks ago and a kid with a 2000 gsr ran 14.2 @ 101 with a custom kit. "If its built correctly and tuned watch out"
