ic... thanx

Close to these numbers stock?

How about off the light...those things are pretty damn fast and I'm pretty sure that you'll only slightly "catch up" on the 1/4 mark.

lude are u going to copy my post on this? or can i? just wondering....:paranoid:

Ummm.. no not stock.. a 57 chevy did the 1/4 in about 1/2 hour. And mine is pretty quick off the line.. I used slicks only once.. hurt my neck and ruined my rearend.. no I don't use slicks on the street.. would be pointless..

"a 57 chevy did the 1/4 in about 1/2 hour" 30 minutes? WOW thats slow or did i not get something..olol

yeah that seems pretty werid 1/2 h lol hehe
I think he made a mistake! :yes:

I was kidding.. they were about 17-18 seconds.. might as well be a 1/2 hour..

If Dodge is domestic and Mitsubishi is Import...what's that make my car? I guess I get the best of both worlds. Cars are cars...stfu and race.

Huh? Is Dodge Mitsubishi also?

DSM was a company that mistu and the crystler corp. had back in the 90's they made the eagle talon, eclipse 3000gt, galant vr4, and dodge stealth. the talon galant and eclipse all shared the 4g63 awd motor and tranny, while the gst and tsi had fwd 4g63 motors also. the 3000gt vr4 and stealth r/t had inline 6 tt engines. baiscly it was when a import and domestic company worked together to make a engine and car. the non trubo versions of the talon and eclipse got the 420a dodge neon engines...

to the dude talking about nastalgia racing

wtf do you think half of the kids here do with there honda's

I cant afford a turbo kit. so i'm piecing a junkyard job up.
you can swap tons of honda/acura stuff between cars.

you can upgrade your rear calipers with accord wagon calipers and rotors. people take cranks and girdles and all sorts of shit and swap them around

LS/VTEC

HELLO these are all low cost junkyard projects that some people go nuts on and spend an extra $3-(no goddam key for the infinity symbol) k trying to make it bullet proof.

F all of that. i do the cheapest but most effective mods to my car.
forget all that as fast as you got cash crap.

most of us are on REAL budgets that don't allow much for spending blindly till we go fast.

whats nostalgia racing?

It's not what kind of car you have. It's how much money you have to put into the car you have. Why v8 people bash us "4 bangers" when we brag about beating a v8. I've been checking out the Camaro sites lately and honestly, they have more "Z28 vs Jetta" in there "Kill Stories" than "Z28 vs T/A". I know I don't brag about beating a Geo Metro. Why do v8's brag about beating a car with half the size powerplant?? I like imports, I like domestics, **** YOU!!

first of all i own a 87 IROC-Z 5.7 highly mod'ed and a 72 corvette with a zz4 pushing 567 hp 736 tor......running 10.51 in the 1/4 and a 95 nissan skyline gt-r (r34) straight from japan......and all my friend have nissans or hondas.....and a bad ass as the skyline is i still love my chevys....i am not a hater of any import or domestic except a mustang.......unless someone has put a good bit of money in it ....... because who am i to put someone down for sinking a lot of money in something they take pride in and love ... that goes for all cars...... i just think that no one should get all huffy and puffy over who bet who..... let racing be fun and enjoy your car....;)

Can't we all just get along?

:yes: as soon as v8 guys realize that imports arent that bad. I know it will be hard for you so i am with ya. ;(

on the other hand, one thing i have noticed is that v8 guys are the one usually saying crap to imports. I remember one day a guy was yelling at me because i drive a civic. But when i said to put up or shut up he drove off.

who in the hell thought of digging up this post lol
