dude you just have to drive one, it's a completely different feeling, it's like saying a gokart is slow and boring because it doesn't have a good 0-60 time, a mustang will never be as agile as a civic
[editline]19th June 2012[/editline]
i also really like driving like an asshole when it's storming out, i don't know of another car that will let me do that
while I love the sound of a V8 mustang the engine growl of a Honda is pretty distinctive and I really like it
I don't find a honda distinctive, what I find distinctive is this:

I fucking love that sound. If every 4 banger could sound like that i'd buy a little honda.
Also the S2000 is the best honda ever.
also also, shift like that give me a rager.

hah those porsches leave that thing in the dust on straights.

This makes me miss my 240 and wish it is operational. The deep gurgle/rumble of exhaust mixed with engine is so sexy imo
[QUOTE=sHiBaN;36399776]Because goodness forbid we choose the car we like to have.
It's foreign, it's rare, it's unique on its own merit. Sure, I can buy a Mustang or an equivalent muscle, but where's the fun in that? People like to assemble great racing cars from the ground up. It's like that computer argument. Why build a PC when you can buy one that's already fast from a retail outlet? What got me hooked was the amount of custom, aftermarket/third party parts and things you can simply bolt on cars like that.
To me, it's just awesome. I love these Japanese cars and their 4-cyl greatness. The car is essentially small too. It's not all about numbers and specs bro. It's more about taste and perspective. These small econo-racecar boxes are at times so complex in their build that's its almost fascinating to own and work on one. Let alone drive it. Also, more power does not necessarily mean more speed when you're drifting/autocross :P
The point is, it kicks butt to see a heavily modified Supra with huge rear wheels out-run a muscle on the strip. Imo, like an underdog thing[/QUOTE]
everything you say okay, but rare? no.
And also, saw a camry ram into an old lady driving an impala. Proves my point any camry driver is shit.

Certainly more rare than USDM being quite blunt.
I think my girlfriend is cheating on me. With my 240 out of commission, she's been getting rides from this guy and going to far away towns with him in his car. Makes me want to crush him and I don't know how to confront my GF

uh
just say "ey bitch we done yo" because that is indeed blatant cheating.
When I get my OEM parts maybe I should fix up my 240 to spec
then I would go to the mountain passes around here, do a mad tyte drift and soar off the railings into the clouds below. To think that would be a more awesome death than anything....

Ever had a issue at gas stations were they put the trash cans to far away for you to throw away crap?

I DONT!
Simply pull parallel to the trash can as close as you can, and turn hard left (or right). Inch up as needed. If pro think it out in your head and do it the first time around.
And to get out of the pos you back up using the following technique backwards as above.

Yo Facepunch. Should I buy these rim's?
[url]http://austin.craigslist.org/pts/3085260479.html[/url]
I don't know much around rims or tires. All I know my Avant has 205/60/R16's on it right now.
I'm not too worried about height but width. And insight on this?
Also If I get green light. I will fucking drive down to Austin to fucking pick those things up.
My friend said he might buy a 3000GT. Are they any good? I've heard they have incredibly bad engines in them.

[/QUOTE]Seems like too much work to be that lazy
So i had a guy over to inspect all 3 of my engines. One of them, the one i was going to use for a build, is near-perfect. IE brand new parts with less than 5k miles on them. The other one is normal wear and tear for it's age, but whereas i previously thought was junk, is good enough for a build. Not a full race engine quality build like the first, but good enough for a stock build.
The third, being the one I'm running currently, is in fact running a blown coolant seal. But i already had my suspicions so there's no surprise there.
So that's good news. He's gonna hit me up with prices and whatnot soon. Gonna (maybe) go with what he calls a really gnarly streetport, almost the equivalent of running near 7 pounds once i get up to and above about 5k, IE when the sixth ports open up. Sorta the same as VTec only different and not shit. So not really the same. But anyways, He'll charge me for parts (Which I'll get for dirt cheap compared to the alternative because he gets HUGE discounts) and the labor, normally $60/hour, is free if i help out with the build. So yay.
Lol update on rims. Looks like he will be in dallas on the 24th. I will take cash and have some nice 18" rims.

Don't be racist bro. Btw, I would research a bit more on rims/tires. You don't just slap 18" on your car expecting it to perform better. There are times where smaller rims with a wider form would work and look better. There's a reason I'm selling my old 18" rims too you know, they're basically truck sized wheels. Basically killed my suspension, lowered gas mileage, cornering, horsepower, just so it could look JDM tyte
Update: Talked to my girlfriend, the guy she was with is a total creepo. Those kinds of guys that pretend to be gay to be close to a girl. So gross.
Pageking, talk about USDM vs JDM vs EURO
some guy decides to park right at the end of where con-ed ended there digging and then put plates down, Wouldn't be an issue if this spot he parked on was the last bit of remaining road requiring people to drive on the plates, The plates are almost an inch off the regular street pavement and no one wants to suddenly have to jump on them or slowly crawl on them just cause some idiot didn't want to just drive less then 15ft for the other two parking spaces one which i claimed.
Kinda a dick move to leave this note but it's true on both points

Sertant Helo wheel's look like shit for some cheap ass person to slap on a crappy car to make it look better.
But Ive been forced into those wheels because my dad thinked they looked better than stock. Plus these had fresh Good Year Eagle LS-2's on them.
I could not say no. He literary forced me to put them on.
Performance,Cornering, Gasmilage.
200hp weee, Understear weeeee,16mpg weeeee
I see nothing wrong here.

Jesus Christ, today had some genuinely awful drivers around.
I don't understand how some people are qualified to operate cars. Get the fuck out of the left lane of the highway if you're going 10 under the speed limit. Put the fucking phone down. That lane isn't a left turn for a reason.
ughhhhhh
I really gotta fix this.
[IMG]http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a166/ballsandy/100_2867.jpg[/IMG]
It's been there since I got the car. Every six months I grind the area down to bare metal, apply rust inhibitor, prime it, and cover the area with masking and duct tape. Only problem is that while working with bondo isn't rocket science, working with sheet metal is and of course, it's in a spot with a lot of curves. It's the only concerning spot on the car. All the other paint chips seem to of not really grown in size.

ughhhhhh[/QUOTE]i was going 80 in the left lane, and some dumb bitch about 20-30 feet ahead of me in the right lane decided to switch to my lane with no turn signals, they literally just swerved into my lane with no warning. I had to almost slam on my brakes to not crash into them, since they were going about 10 less than I was. And as if that wasn't enough they proceeded to only go 60
Fuck Coloradoan drivers
Battery terminal is fixed nao .. pics maybe later .. :P
Cop was behind me like 20 car lengths
Was goin 35 in a 50
Dropped to 2nd wot into 3rd to 50 into 5th
Cop FLIES up on me to my bumper then realizes I'm going 50
I put on my coolface
Snip, never mind.

I swear to god I'm going to get in another accident with how stupid people are being
I just can't understand it. People must be literally braindead to drive this terribly
Had a close call with a cop yesterday. I was goin 45 in a 35, just cruisin. Suddenly cop appears out of nowhere, I hear his sirens turn on. I look into my rearview mirror and the cop squeals out of his little hiding place and starts going after some other guy that was also speeding. Fuck yeah for having a normal looking car that cops don't pay much attention to

I hate it when people drive absurdly slow. Like slowing down WAYYYY before the turn to like 8 mph, and just creaping up to it for 40 feet at that speed, and slow down to 5 mph to go around it. Your car isn't going to flip jesus fuck step on it, and i'm not talking about the brake.
I hate when you have to like slam on the brakes when someone's gonna take a turn. It's like your car will be fine if you take a turn at more than 5mph, come on.
