Just a neon?
« Reply #15 on: April 06, 2004, 04:43:34 PM »
So that\'s a T3 turbo?  What stage/size is the stock one?

The max was a 95, the first year the VQ was used (3.0L 190hp version).  The guy who did it actualy went through 3 or 4 engines and finally got the tuning right to reach a stable 500 mark.  Here\'s a video of him running a boosted RX-7.

The SRT-4 isn\'t just another gay neon, but it\'s not a cruiser car either.  The front just doesn\'t look aggressive at all, but it can stomp any car in its price range and hang with those twice that.  You gotta give credit for it\'s performance, SCC ripped apart the engine and concluded it was the real deal, no shortcuts taken.  When the headlights stop saying "Hi" to me and go the route of the WRX I\'ll give it a look.

PS- I think the joke is (or at least another version of it) is: "What do a 400hp Mustang and a 1000hp Supra both have in common?  The 12 second timeslip."

Not aggressive looking? Non WRX route?


Look at the lights...WRX-ish...minus the STi housing or projectors. Unless you mean the new WRX\'s.


BTW..I always did hate that bug eyed look as well.

your friend sounds like a dumb ass. torque steer isnt that bad of a problem for a driver.


You\'re calling him a dumbass based on his accident without asking further information? He wasn\'t racing, as I said. He was going at the safe speed in the rain but the black ice just could not have been seen....especially at night. Obviously, your mad ricer skillz at the quarter mile must be sooooo amazing that Vin Diesel would have a boner for ya! We don\'t live our lives a quarter of a mile at a time, Vinny.

Listen, Captain Ricer, he\'s an avid autocrosser and a very good track racer. The car, whether it had AWD or RWD, would have still slipped on black ice regardless. 5 other cars slipped in the same area and the state police had to close that ramp.

This is MY thread now. If you noticed my response had two short but seperate sentences. I mentioned Torque Steer. The next paragraph (yes, one sentence but still)....I mentioned he crashed.

Now, I understand that was misleading but I did say it had nothing to do racing (ie full WOT). So why\'d you call him a dumb ass?

He is a dumbass b/c he crashed an SRT. He is a dumbass b/c he crashed. ANyone who crashes is a dumbass at that point for doing what they did.

Yes, I have crashed to..yes I was a dumbass for doing so.

lol you two. :laughing:

Luckee I actually like the bottom half of the front, but I don\'t think the headlights will ever grow on me.  Once the SRT\'s get dropped they look pretty aggressive.

Then I\'m a dumb ass THREE TIMES! :D This kid backed his car out and hit my car. The one other guy did a 180 and hit me. And this one other guy, while eating a donut, hit me while I was stopped at a light.

Nobody is perfect. And just so you know, my car can hit Mach 4. On 87 octane. With 4 fat chicks. Beat that.

I think it looks rice.  I have seen Pinto\'s with 500+hp - it is still a Pinto on the outside.

but said ugly ass pinto MUST be respected on the street.

I dont like the fact that a a few weeks ago I got beat by a early 90\'s primered turbo tercel, but I must respect this guy the next time I see him with the car I was driving...or do some more mods.


BTW..what is rice to you giga. Just curious as that term gets thrown around soooo much, most dont even really know.

Hostile aren\'t we luckee?  I don\'t have to answer to you - I have my opinion and if you don\'t like it ignore me.  You would rather argue symantics (ie. Gman\'s visiting a forum 5 years ago) than discuss why it isn\'t rice.

Ok...now where did you get hostility in what I asked you? And as usual why cant you answer a question directed at you?

If you dont want to get into what is rice and what isnt, then why say anything in the first place?

And what did that convo from another post that has nothing to do with this one have to do with why you think its rice?

luckee - you have been confrontational in most of your posts since you have been back.  It is noticable.  

Anyway, I am not going to argue symantics with you.  In the other thread regarding when Gman visited a forum - is exactly what you are trying to do here.  People\'s perception on what looks good and what doesn\'t are different and analyzing what I think looks "rice" isn\'t going to change my opinion.

Like I said - if you can\'t discuss an issue with me - do everyone a favor and ignore me.  Less topics will get closed and save everyone some time in sifting through this bs.

So either keep your mouth shut if you dont want to explain yourself or just define what you think rice is, you could be right or wrong. There is a definition ya know. Who said anything about changing your opinion..you\'re either right or wrong. Opinion hasnt much to do with it at all.

Based on your theory...I dont like the pontiac aztec...so that qualifies as rice?


See what I mean yet?

Care to actually answer what was asked instead of a bunch of words no one asked about?


And I have only been confrontational with you,vivi, and someone else. You act as if it is new or something. Was I not like this before if not worse?
