Pretty impressive for a fourteen year old...

 

[Dudebusta]

ive got a 1992 Holden Commodore. Its got a slightly worked 3.8 litre buick pushrod V6. produces around 240hp which is well over the 180hp it originally had .

ive also got a 1982 toyota landcrusier, theres a thread about it in this forum.

 

[aljones]

I've got a 2000 model Vauxhall Astra Sport. Looks pretty good and not too expensive to run. It was in the game back in GT2, as was my older car the Vauxhall Corsa. At the end of the day, people as young as me who live in the UK don't expect to get a car thats much better, so it'll do nicely for the time being.

then why is your name mustang GT rider?

 

[Dudebusta]

because he rides the mustang to school with his mum and rides the viper in his dreams

 

[Dudebusta]

who actually voted their car is better than everone elses?

mine starts every time, cheap to run (for a 6) and i like it.

 

[Joey D]

You all know I drive a Civic

 

[Oschino]

those civics sure are scary with there blinding speed, read my profile i have a joke about civics.

 

[Joey D]

Wow your another one who doesn't know any thing about imports. You've never seen a fast Civic. Hmmm. You don't look very hard. I've seen Civics run 10's and I have a video of a Civic beating Viper. So why don't you look into things before you say them.

 

[Oschino]

yeah the only civics that run 10's are drag racing ones that arent street leagal cause civics suck

 

[Joey D]

Ok well those aren't but I have seen 12 second street civics. Also I've even seen them break into the 11's

 

[Josh]

There are plenty of street legal, daily driven 10 second civics.


Plenty of Civic HB's with motor swaps/turbos/nitrous/etc.

 

[Joey D]

Not many around here that go into the tens and are daily drives. Most are 12's.

 

[risingson77]

There aren't many ten second, daily driven Civics.

-HOWEVER-

You can get them into low 13s/high 12s and have a reliable, efficient daily driver if you do a CR-VTEC (B20 block and B16/18C head) or B18/B20 with forced induction. That, or many other combinations will give you a sleeper Civic that's faster than 75-80% of the other cars on the road. 😈

 

[Oschino]

oh god give me a break nos is the cheesiest thing out there it is cheating in my eyes and in the eyes of many other car enthusiest and i have never in my life seen a civic that with out nos could run 13's

Thank you

 

[risingson77]

Geez, Oschino...you seem awful torqued off about something...did you just get your ass handed to you by a Civic or something? oke:

 

[sn00pie]

Cool joke Oschino!

How is nitrous oxide "cheating?" Because it gives you more horsepower? Then turbochargers/superchargers/and every other form of hp increase is cheating too, correct?



Maybe you haven't seen a Civic without nitrous that could run 13's because the only Civics near you are the "riced" out ones. Around here, there are more faster Civics than Mustang GT's, Z28's, etc. We have our fair shair of "rice," but we also have our fair share of actual auto-enthusiasts who put time and money into their cars and don't appreciate it when someone says all Civics suck.





Also, would it be fair for me to say that all Mustangs, Camaros, and Firebirds are pieces of **** rust buckets just because I've never seen one that didn't have rust on it? No, it wouldn't.

Be fair Josh, that's just a baaaaddd example!

 

[Oschino]

first off no one handed me anything, and you(josh) seem to be another civic lover in denial that civics suck and you just like them cause everybody else likes them (everybody as in rice boys), you must be somone that cant afford a real fast car so instead you buy a cheap piece of crap throw on some tings to make it look fast and go brag about it. oh yeah and nos is cheating because its not the power of your car its just a boost that last for a few seconds last for a few seconds.

 

[Josh]

Yes, you're absolutely correct, I can't afford a fast car.

What kind of car do you own?



And another thing, I do not love Civics, I just have respect for them, as I do every car because I know they can be made to go fast.

 

[Josh]

Anyhoo, just to let you know...


My very first car was a 1997 Camaro Z28 6speed.
Second was a 2001 Honda S2000 6speed
Third was a 1995 Lexus GS300 Touring Edition(not fast, by any means)4spd. auto
Fourth was a 2001 Camaro Z28 6speed

I still have the GS300, and the S2000, but the Honda is being sold sometime this week. By Tuesday it should be gone.

So, yes, I can afford a fast car. In every single one of those cars listed, I have been beated by a Civic. Yes, I know how to drive a manual, and no I didn't **** up in any of the races nor did I get a ****ty launch, there's just some fast ****ing Civics where I live.

 

[MazKid]

People, people, can't we all just get along?

I'll sum it up:

Civics are economy cars, meant for people who want good gas milage and not pay a lot. Then others come along, and make it something it's not, and spend thousands, most of the time more than they bought the car for, to make it as fast as a car they coulda got with no mods and that runs better and is more reliable.

There, done, now go out and play...

 

[risingson77]

Oh, come on Oschino...don't let bitterness rule you just 'cos you have an '86 Celebrity Wagon.

You're selling the S2000? Man, you're crazy. At least keep the C5's...

 

[Josh]

I have to sell it. I can't pay the insurance on it, and my parents are tired of supporting my ass. Plus Katherine, the lady who's buying it, made us an offer we couldn't refuse. She's getting a loan on it, and as soon as her bank approves the loan, she fills out all necessary paperwork, we get the title transferred over, and I see a check from her bank it's gone.
