@tjamal90 the 2012 Si is 100% stock drivetrain wise, with the factory fill oil in it and a new to daily driving stick shift. the orange 8th has rsx oil pump, tsx cam and a resonator delete on the intake. stock ecu i/h/e the black 8th has a short ram, invidia q300 and hondata flashpro.
you can put a header on the 12 Si, its just a single pipe. they still have catalytic converters. and if you do ever decide on a turbo, a 8th gen would e better. more options as name brands, makes more power and easier to tune
I have 2012 civic si reflashed , this poor guy does not know how to shift , but he still did pretty decent against the 8ths, gotta give the 9th some time for some real parts to develop.
okay thanks for the comments everyone, IDK if you guys are cereal with your replies or what. Everyone of my other videos is of an 8th gen except this one.... Logically thinking someone would say "hey he owns the 8th" That is me in the orange Si MISSING third (because I was watching the 9th instead of focusing on shifting) and still pulling ahead on every run. Cut the ninth gen a break too I even said that the driver has very limited seat time in that car.
Quarter mile wise, they're the same. In the long run, the 8th should win. I've raced k24's in 00 civics with my 00 Civic making the same power as my k20a2. And they could only get like a fender on me for a short period of time. Then after like 100 MPH, I start pulling. My longer revs kept me pulling ahead. I also have a higher top speed, due to my higher revs. Same as 8th vs 9th gen races. The same thing happens.Good luck with an aftermarket header. The 9th is integrated with the block.
@ramon1paiz you didn't read any comments or description, but I fail ? I don't own a 9th gen, I'm in the 8thgen(winning) in the first few races. read folks read, the 9th gen driver is much better now that he has seat time.
Who I feel sorry for is the people driving on the highway who could have been clipped by one of these morons....when me and my buddies use to race each other we would find a secluded road and do it over there
I disagree although i like8th gen more but i end up buying a 9th gen, because i wanted A new car and got that car 21,500 out the door with tax included in califronia. i raced an stock 8th gen with my stock 9th,my car was only ahead by a fender. And yes i even switch driver were my friend drove my car and i drove his same result. of the line 9th gen would beat it by almost a car, accounting the 9th gen have way more torque in terms of freeway run, there both about the same. 6 month later i got instake catless headers and exhuast w/ tune. raced the another buddies 8th gen with the exact same setup (intake header exhaust / tune by the same company) and be it by a car length, and again we switch drivers as well. My ending result was 215.06whp with 180.04ft lb of torque and his was 208 with 151 ft lb. but still love the looks of the 8th gen and high revs. but if you want more torque you gotta sacrifice the high revs. both great cars. but please i just hate when ppltalk smack about 9th gen complaining 8th gen have higher rev and 9th gen dont,but after all it does have 170 ft lb stock and if its revs up to 8k the motor wont last.
'12 Si is quicker than 06-11 Si stock. Obviously headers can't be swapped on the 9th gen, but that's not a deal breaker to me. If I really wanted to tune my '12 Si, I'd go with a turbo and cold air intake kit, more power gains there than the whole header/exhaust kit will ever give you. But I'm no tuner and probably wont ever tune my car, so none of this will ever be relevant to me. There'll always be someone faster. In the end none of this will matter, so long as you enjoy your ride.
Those are terrible fucking shifts, learn how to drive. Way to fail if you're trying to power-shift, especially since this engine makes most of it's power in the middle.

THE 2012 SI NEEDS A NEW MOD CALLED A NEW DRIVER!!

Way faster than the old ones.
let's pretend both car shifted perfectly, The 8th gen still pulls ahead...

May be the 8 th gen have an intake header and exaust ... I see other video that almost the same pull stock to stock and 9 th pull harder until 100 mph
this video is like a bootleg movie where you can"t see shit.
holy cow.. it is like you are powershifting but not on purpose...
2012 Civic SI = $22,355, 31MPG, 201hp/170TQ
2012 Mustang V6 = $22,200, 31 MPG , 305HP/280TQ
I think I'll pick the mustang

8th's FTW! My R18 8th will keep up to 2012 SI's LOL
which pixel is which?
I like when 9ths try to hang with my built 8th lol I beat them by bus legnths
8th gen Si is the best.
that's why a v6 mustang beats the STi in the straights and in the twisties..
OK HONESTLY YOU HAVE THE WORST SHIFTING EVER!
lol @ youtubers...I can vouch for vee2sleezy owning an si...or at least at the time of the recording.
Why u keep redlining? Learn to shift at 7k or watching the vtec indicator.
wow i feel bad for the car this dudes shifting is so shitty
Il race you in my 2012 maxima and il dust that civic i beat them all the time
This Guy shifts like shit , 9th gen is quicker stock

learn to drive before you race! =)
