[Vette4LIFE]

This is the car I sold to get my vette. It had 215,000 miles on the chassis, motor rebuilt at 204,000 miles. It had approx. 300awhp (bpu-boost controller,downpipe,gutted kitties,hot-wired fuel pump) and was AWD, AWS, and really responsive, I LOVED this car and its still hard sometimes without it, but the vette makes up for it. There were only 15,000 vr4's made in the US. Gearbox is german-made Getrag and had TALL ASS gears. Between 0-90 the vr4 all the way, then my vette would start to KILL her after that. If you upgrade the turbo's these cars are good for 11's pretty easily, but 10's take alot more money, because the car weighs 3,750 pounds.

Then Skyline, Supra, 300zx, Rx7, NSX (I like turbo 6's, not n/a's), Evo, sti, (also not really into 4 door sports cars)

Not to mention the history and culture of thoese brands
A civic rather then a Ferrari?
wow

you said it right there.

a. I'm not a brand loyalist...so history means nothing to me.
b. i said I don't need a flashy car i.e. the culture of the ferrari. The culture of both fo those cars is to buy it because your lacking a penis and to store it in your garage.
c. performance figures... 12 second q/m with a top speed around 200...what is so impressive about that? Specially the lambos..AWD with 500-600 hp and they still can't cut a better 60ft then a well sorted rwd fbody. Also, if these cars are so exotic and special..how come they weigh some much...its kind of funny that the new zo6 undercuts ALL of there weights.

I drive cars because they are fun, not to get noticed..like i originally said.

edit: I would love to drive a n/a 10rpm k series swapped hatchback civic. make it black, with black 16inch wheels with R rubber on them, a sick suspension setup, gutten interior with a black roll cage and go have some fun..fuck what everyone else thinks.

[BrandonDrecksage]

An American car i can understand, as they have history and culture too.
but the jap ones dont.

F bodies, mustangs and other muscle cars are flashy too, so does that mean small penis?

Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini and other cars like that are made to be all round fast, not just for quarter mile.


u got no style man lol

no last time i checked...everyone thinks people who drive camaros all have mullets and are hicks. Like I said before, i could care less about the history of the car, but you say jap cars don't have any history? do you know how long the skyline has been made for? probably close to 30-35 years, supra since the late 70s, the z ar for a lil over 30 years, the evo has been around for 15ish years with 9 different updates and now the car that you ciritized before, the civic has been around just as long. I have no style? where in my statement of "fuck what everyone else thinks." is unclear? Peopl that are worried about style are the retarded who buy a overpriced car just to let it sit in their house.

[BrandonDrecksage]

Yes some jap cars have been made for a few years, but the tech and styling isnt theirs, theyhave never had an original idea lol.

if u dont give a fuck then why are you here, i thought this board was for car afficionados?

If noone gives a fuck, then lets close our car factories and let out ppl go hungry and give money to the Japs.

...i'm here because I'm a car enthusiast and like the lsx series of engines and fbodies....I siad I don't give a fuck what people think about me.

japanese car makers don't use tech? are you retarded? somel of the turbo technology we have today it because of them, and I bet the only reason 4cyl can be made fast is becaus eof what the japanese started with the early hondas, and mitsubushi with the 4g63t...ect.

and last I checked car forums are around to help people that ask questions.

also...when did I say no one gives a fuck..you really need to learn how to read. Also, when did I say we should close the car factories? give all the money to the japanese? are you a fucking redneck from the south? I believe toyota even has a few plants in the US, so i guess if you don't buy toyota, same shit happens?

just so you know..i drive a 2001 camaro ss....so...maybe you think I'ma troll because I like hondas too....not all people are closed minded.

[91Z28]

Lmao japanese invented twin cam tech?
thats a good one.

the Europeans were doing twin cams back in the 1930's and 40's

Maybe u need to read, I said the tech the Japanese use wasnt invented by them, THey have copied it all.

some people arent close minded, they just Detest Japanese cars and their rice culture.

People who dye their hair blue and then cover a car with stickers and 51" wings are beyond gay.

I was talking about the turbo technology...not twin cams engines...but since you brought that up...it made varible valve timing and all that good stuff?

once again..learn to read.

I concur.

[BillyT]

The jap makers have just marketed themselves well.

Is "Jap" not a racial slur in Australia?

Jap ( P ) Pronunciation Key (jp)
n. Offensive Slang
Used as a disparaging term for a person of Japanese birth or descent.

[BrandonDrecksage]

GM had a turbo car in 1961.
BMW, Mercedes and ALfa Romeo had variable valve timing before the Jap makers did.

The jap makers have just marketed themselves well.

were in my post does it say "first to produce"..it doesn't..it says improve on...learn to read. What is your whole point with this? people are entitled to your own opinion, i'm sorry you can't deal with that...so have fun typing away in your mommy's basement.

I couldn't vote, rice is rice lol

[Michael Z-28]

My first car was a 280zx 5-speed inline 6 fuel inj. and it would stay in front of most 5.0 auto in a race up to 85-90mph. They would catch me going into 4th gear. , But up till then I was always 1/2 car ahead

[zleeper z]

I couldn't vote, rice is rice lol

My thoughts exactly.

[BigFrog]

What about of vote on your favorite Tyco or AFX car? They can be modded to have as much power as a Civic, too.

[ohsofast]

Skyline the best ever
