looks good.... I think it'd look better with those black housing headlights though...

I can't believe you don't get shiot for having nitrous and it's just sitting there.

post some pics of the engine bay.

oh... are you going to the ct meet.... you should... it's gunna be cool..

i have a state issued permit for the nitrous.. i can LEGALLY have it..

and sure maybe when it clears up ill click a few off

nice car man....looks fast.....has it been dyno'd? or ran on track?

and how can u have a permit for nitrous:confused: :confused:

no dyno or track time.. couple good street kills..

and here is what im SURE you all want to see adn will STILL not believe... you can get this permit if you live in NJ..




lol

Nice car.

How'd that roll cage help out as far as stiffening up the chassis?

ya but that thing doesn't say you can have the bottle hosed while your on the street much less run it on the street... it's just a permit to handle and transport...right?

I can get a license to carry a gun... don't make me Jizames bond... license to kill and all... though if that's available in jersey too I'm moving.

oc......what cars have u raced/won??

wow, your car is quite orgasmic...:yes: lol btw those slipstream are 15s right? how much did you get them for?

nice.....very subtle.

you keepin the single cam or swappin at some point?
whered you pick up the rollbar from?

She's still lookin good....:cool:

gotta get all that A/C, power steering, and cruise control shiit outa there first!

n i c e r i d e

made the car feel tighter dont know if it was mental or not... our cars are basicly tin cans... this is a big steel bar that ties that tin canb together so i think it really makes a differance

sure i can have it hosed up and set up, just not on... lol i can have EVERY THING open just not on, because until its on im just transporting it.. lol i went to court for this and won.. i CAN have it in my car JUST LIKE IT IS.. and good luck proving i had it on if you ever pull me over..

i mostly race domestics... i beat my friennds gsr that went high 14's BEFORE he turboed it, i beat a 98 dx with a lightly modded b16, i beat a couple mustangs, beat my friends camaro on several occasions and he has gone consistant mid 14's (14.6 14.5 area), some ugly ass pick up truck with a worked 350 in it that goes high 14's... im not implying that the cars fast or that i run ANY specific time, these are just a handfull of the cars ive beat..

Thank You

yup 15's got them back in the day from a good friend he has dealer accounts so they were REAL cheap.. $400 no shipping..

thank you...

well that is the question i asked myself a thousand times.... and im at the point where the choice needs to be made..i have access to some single cam internals and thats really what im leaning towards.. i THINK we can build it to take at LEAST a hundred shot.. the y8 built with a hundred shot would be fast.. swap would be teh easy way, but im leaning much more towards a build

roll bar from IOport racing, specificaly this guy ken was my salesman.. VERY cool guy...

we should pull the cruise control friday...

are u that hardcore of a dragster that you had to race the interior ? don't mind me, but i like my car toa handle good, not 12 > in the 1320

im pretty hardcore.. not to be confused with "gangsta hardcore" that i am not..

well since a stock y8 can handle a 75shot with minor fuel upgrades, with better internals a 100shot shouldnt be too hard(direct port I'm assuming?) actually a 125shot wouldnt be to hard either. just dont let that biotch detonate(that is if the sleeves are stock)!

how much weight did you save stripping the interior?

built with direct port 125 should be cake so i think the car SHOULD be pretty quick like that

and as far as weight i didn't JUST strip it i cut out a decent amount of metal.. so i think i dumped a fair amount...

what did you cut out? and about how much weight do you think it saved?

I think if anything i'm gonna ADD weight via sound deadening, but I'm real curious as to what you did and how much weight you saved.

hard to explain.. but its an ongoing process.. if you take off your cars panels and look at the skeleton, you will see lots of extra metal ment to protcect you in an accident.. well add a cage and teh car becomes more rigid, and you loose the need for this EXTRA metal honda had included.. a dremel and some free time will really add up.. lol total weight??? no idea.. suffice to say the car is lighter...i wish i had an answer for you but i don't..

what is that, a 6 pt cage?

four now soon to be six

this sat... 31st in danbury there's a "caravan" of cars coming from pa and jersey... there are like 4 meet up points in jersey..

PM me if you want me to pm you the thread over on h-t.

id love to but i can't make it.. sorry man i have work... maybe next time..
