Title: Show Your Ride!
Post by: TheGR81 on October 02, 2001, 08:13:44 AM
Ok eveyrone that has a car in here, show it off!

Whether it be as ugly as Ryu! Or as hot looking as SmallLady!

I don\'t care, just show it! (One Pic per car) And Include some details.


Now, I sold my car, But It used to be a Hooked up 99 Civic SI, with a DRAG Turbo Kit and direct port Nitrous Injection! I was up and around the 400Hp mark. With a 11 Sec. Quarter Mile time....

The Reason I sold it was because I need to buy a more powerful car, Like  HONDA PRELUDE! with 200hp stock.

Now If anyone can tell me how to upload my pics to the net, You can see my old car...But till then POST YOUR RIDE! (Again)

This is mine, it is a 2001 Mitsubishi VRX

It has a Chameleon Style paint job, black in the shade, but when the sun shines, it goes a \'glittery\' green colour, with green speckles in the paint.

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fastmagna.20m.com%2Fimages%2Fracer2.jpg&hash=eabf789b83df6cac2250c1a56116a39683e33621)

It has bright red leather interior, and it is an automatic with tiptronic selector.

That pic lets you see the whole thing.

182 KW at the moment. It is stock, but I have a Unichip installed.

Can you drag race a person in a truck? Didn\'t think so. Sports cars are faster and will leave your truck in the dust :D Plus, most people don\'t go off road in a truck. They could yes but do they, not really. Some do. But sports cars are faster and cooler.

Ok sherlock,

Honda Civic SI=160 Hp, 1.6 liter engine. DOHC VTEC
Honda Prelude S=200hp, 2.2 liter engine, DOHC VTEC.

Now, if i got 400 HP out of a SI, what do you think I could do with a prelude?.....

I\'ve got rougly around $30,000 laying around, to buy the car and then spend about  $14,000 on top of it, I can easily get back up to 400hp.

Plus Preludes look better.

As for you domestic fans, yes american cars have more muscles but their engines also are weak, as in they can\'t take beatings, while japanese or import engines can take all the beatings you give them.

You can go a long way with VTEC, and I bet after I get done with my Prelude, there will be no one in my town that can touch me. (Small Town)

So why dont most of the fast 1/4 guys use the H22 motors boosted? I think the lude is a nicer lookin car..but If I had spent all of that money to make the civic an 11sec car..Id just spend more on it to make it 10sec street legal..or 9sec..8sec..etc..

Now for the imports taking abuse question...guess you dont know many imports that have blown up from *NAWWWZZZ* or boost huh? Unless you do it right the 1st time..any car not designed for boost will fail. Only ones that can take alot of abuse that come to mind right now are supra\'s and skylines. On a stock block anyway...

I despise that tackiness too!!! What part of AZ? There are a few pretty quick neon guys down there who arent stickered up. I wouldnt say they look like hardcore wannabe imports..Id say hardcore drag racers..which the imports do the same..so they both go after that look..

well in AZ you will see a whole bunch of stickered up cars, i admit i have a sticker or 2 inside my hood, but only because i actually have what the stickers say!!!!, when i say something looks rice, i mean you can have the body kit, the stickers, the clear headlights, K&N filters, a bumpin system, and a huge fart pipe, and think you all raced, but your not, why?  becuase you have 0 engine mods done to your car, nothing that actually make you car even raced out. thats rice. we have alote of those in Tucson, thye always crusie down speedway..the most cop infested street int he city.

now my car is only a 2.8 liter V6  138 hp stock with 160 ftp of tork, that isnt very fats in my book, but with the mods i have on it so far it went up to about 147-148hp and a bit more tork, but when i have all the mods i listed earlier done to my car it iwll be well over 220 ponies a a whole lotta tork, thats the beauty of moddign, you have nothign, and turn it into somehting to be proud of, sheist, even if i coudlnt *** my cra i wouldnt care, i just love my cra for the look, not the speed, if i wanted fast i would have bought a 350 TPI IROC Z camaro "i couldnt find one in town for sale :D" but when im done modding my car it iwll be faster than a V8 no problem :), i love my cra for the look, i turn head when ever i go down the street, girl like a big powerful car that looks phat, power yet sleek.

i dotn need stickers to look cool, nitrouse will only devoure an engine in time so i dont mess with that

The reason so many cars get blowen up because of "Nitros Oxide". Is because they don\'t properly build up the engine, and they run too much of a boost, A 50shot of NOS would easily be safe on a stock engine. But anything over and you need to build up the engine...pulley\'s, cams, etc.

Thats what I did, and i still stand by my statement, Imports are faster, better looking, and more reliable cars.

Why are you explaining to me how they blow up? Now where to start??

What pulley needs to rebuilt if the motor blows?

Imports are faster where?..street or strip? Street..thats a toss up.. Strip..b/c imports have been doing it longer if you are talkin about 4banger drag racing.

More reliable when modding?..lol..no such thing.

Better looking?..I can give you that on some of them..but thats just a matter of opinion and not a fact.

Not too much. Still trying to pay it off. For now, I have the underpulley, 20 mm rear sway bar, aluminim Volk Rays wheels(they come in white as standard). Once the car is paid off, I\'m getting the WRX engine and transmission put into that car. The new age WRX is not quite to my liking, though it\'s still a nice looking car.

With the WRX engine swap, that body style(which is 300 pounds lighter than the more rigid body of the new WRX), I\'ll be quite satisfied. :D

Two more years and this baby will be a bad ass lady! :D
