gt vs rs camaro

japcrapkilla96 · January 30th, 2007, 08:06 PM

i have a 96' gt 5 spd my buddy has an 88 rs camaro with gears and a shift kit. but his car runs like crap and needs a valve job. if he gets that and throws a holley carb on it u think he will take me my gt is completely stock

sonicblue · January 30th, 2007, 08:22 PM

i think you will beat him.

silver_96 · January 30th, 2007, 08:53 PM

Youll smoke him man those things are pos whats it got 305???? Bet money on this one youll kill him. The irocs arent even that fast man and those are 350's

dmachine22 · January 30th, 2007, 09:00 PM

Yeah I agee with you 305 is a terrible motor its a watered down V8 extremely slow! You would kill him! the 305 makes a ford 302 look like a 428 CBJ!

silver_96 · January 30th, 2007, 09:05 PM

This should sum all this up 1988 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z 7.0 15.5
well lol 170 hp stock you got more then that to the wheels so call him up and smoke him lol

Casper98GT · January 31st, 2007, 02:56 PM

Not MUCH more than that to the wheels. lol. Even the Non-pi cars are slow. But do the RS's even have a V8? Because i know 2 of my buddys who had RS's and they were V6's with dual exhaust and same color wheels are the car.

dmachine22 · January 31st, 2007, 03:51 PM

The earlier late 80's earlier 90's models RS had a V8 the newer models like 95 and up are V6 models!

acmillr · January 31st, 2007, 04:51 PM

How much HP did the '89 IROC 350 cid car have? I may have memory lapse, but I remember the 350 tuned port cars as being pretty damn strong.

silver_96 · January 31st, 2007, 08:18 PM

The 89 iroc had different picks you could get a 170 hp 305. A 215 hp 305 or a 235 hp 350. But this is a rs and it has the 305 170 hp so he will deff take him. I didnt know the 350's had that much these years but i guess i was wrong. The iroc would prolly take you but rs you have nothing to worry about.

acmillr · February 1st, 2007, 09:38 AM

Yeah, that sounds a little closer to the truth about the 350 model. I remember those cars being tough to deal with. I'm pretty sure I remember a few 5.0's getting walked on by an IROC with the tuned port 350.

ForeverDreamin · February 3rd, 2007, 08:01 PM

Just give it a go..
whats the worst that can happen?

02steedagt · February 5th, 2007, 10:08 PM

I had an 87 Firebird... same car as the RS... a couple years ago. there's no comparison. You'll smoke him.

FastBack71 · February 7th, 2007, 06:19 AM

the 305 is a strong motor when it comes to reliability but not in brute strength. The 4.945 liter 302 motor is extremely potent and very reliable.

mystang0673 · February 10th, 2007, 01:05 AM

i have seen a newer rs v6 bone stock run a 14.6. i have no clue how. and its an auto. and the guy wasnt that good of a driver
