Guys who cares about HP per liter? Only people without much HP thats who. Yeah so what if you can get 180 hp from 1.8L, its still only 180 hp. On a bike that is great power for a 4 cyl. So then if my car can make 100hp per liter will that shut them up? Its only a 7.5L do the math...

I also wonder why all of our domestics have to be rusty, care to guess how many rusted imports I have been forced to work on? Metal rusts, fact of life. Join a forum just to say one stupid thing to a bunch of Stang guys who couldnt care less about how fast a prelude really is. Moronic is the word that comes to mind.

Si, you sure defend Honda alot bro. It almost like you are gettin paid to do it :) I dont like them because I had to work on them. I have large hands and Honda has tight spaces. Crappy engineering IMO, GM and Ford have some of the same, but Honda puts stupid ideas into everything they build.Ever heard of pullin an axleshaft, strut/ spindle, and tilting an engine to change a bad alternator? When a simple alternator change pays 5-6 hours that doesnt show superior engineering. For Fords, Heater Core on a late 90's Lincoln, gotta pull the dash and disconnect the AC to do something it only take 30 minutes to do in most GM cars. #8 sparkplug on an LS1, you need to be a skinny kid with tiny hands to get that thing out. I can get one fingertip on it. Honda is touchy when it comes to alot of things. Ever rebuild a Honda trans? OMG shoot me before I ever think about doin another one, ok?

Hyundai is a POS right? Well they are easy as sin to work on. Timing belt on a Honda, takes all day and requires special tools. Timing belt on a Hyundai takes all of 3 wrench sizes and a bit over one hour. My dislike for Honda doesnt stem from kids puttin fart cans on, it comes from having to fix the stupid things. I like to work on the Mod motors, there is actually a bit of room around in there, its under stuff but you can get to things.

Racing a Honda is like a foot race with a 5th grader. Why bother cuz its not a great achievement when you win. If the 5th grader/Honda driver is sayin how fast he is, and saying he can whup your azz, then most of us seem to get stupid and put them in thier place. I have done it, we pretty much all have. What does it prove? They have something to prove, we dont.

But let me get this straight, you started this post simply because you knew it would stir up some sort of controversy and arguement. Isn't that grounds for punishment? *cough*looks at a moderator*cough*

Do I really have to point out the post where he said he posted this because he knew I'd have something to say, meaning he wanted to get a rise out of me?

Hey OB, this story is for you. Tonight im bored with nothing to do. so i go out in my pony. I'm driving along, and i buzz around on the highway for a while, and then decide to take it in for the night. So im comming back and taking off from a red light slowly see headlights zipping in and out of people. He catches up to me and i laugh, i head his VTECH kick in and i pull hard in second, and catch up to him. And then i get behind him and he pulls a u-turn, so of course i follow. He then goes into a local resturant and pulls over and i come up to his window and he opens his door and comes over to my window. he says, not bad for 1,000 is it. I laugh and his buddy says. lol. Arent you the guy we jst smoked back there?" so be being prud of my v-8 i said. You wannarace that piece of ****? he says "yeah, anytime". So i said, how about now. Then he says by the way i just ran it a NEDW and i got a 13.5. I beat mustangs all day long. So i sid, lets go then. Then to top it off h says, you know its got a b-16 or o something. lol. and i have engine management, and a cold air kit with exhaust. lol. I was still happy for this race. S we pullout and there is a red light but one person is in the other lane. So i sit net to his car and hold up traffic and he said. ON 3. So i let him count and of course he takes off before me and i pull a car on him to 70 mph. we come bak together and he complains about traction. i laugh and yell from a 30. He down shifts and i saw go, we take off and i take almost 2 1/2 on him. and then another red light. We stop and go, i got a perfect launch and i killed him. He just shrugs his shoulders after he blows by me. We then went to his house and he shakes my hand and says, you must have a supercharger in this. So i said what i had and his buddy didnt belive me. Then i tell him to coem to NEDW this wednesday and he says ya. Cool kid, but doesnt know about cars. Another ricer killed with my SLO 4.6


LOL...Good kill...you gotta love the way they think...I bet he had intake and exhaust on that thing(common ricer mod)...That's instant 200 horsepower in the ricer world. LOL...

so you mustang guys are too good for less restrictive intakes and free flowing exhausts?

a motor is a motor bro, we all benefit from the same power adders

No....but we all know that intake and exhaust isn't going to put us on "#1 stunna in town" list. Where you think it adds 50+hp, we know better.

And actually, my motor would benefit more from an intake/exhaust than your motor, simply because it's bigger. I don't have a Mustang, but I did stay at a Holliday Inn Express last night.

Couldn't have said it better Slammedlude, we are referring to the people who put on a intake and a big exhaust tip and act like they are hot sh!t. It's just annoying when ricers like that talk crap just because they did 1 or 2 mods. You're starting with a 4 banger ....you need lots of mods (turbo, etc.) to even come close to keeping up with a V8 mustang. We're not saying they are crappy cars.

200si i posted this because i knew you would have somethig stupid to say. He was the one telling me i would get shut down and telling me he beats up on Mustangs all day long at the track. I knew I would kill him so it wasnt very special in my eyes either. I do however enjoy racing Civic SI's............. In my buddys Focus SVT> LOL.


That may have been partially the reason but the first thing he says...

Wow. I just sat back and read this whole thing. I did post this to cause a big fight. lol. j/k. I dont usually race people, but when someone flaunts what they have at me and direct it at me then im going to do what every normal person would do around here. Race them. Most of the people in my town get along and the "ricers" and import people know what they have and most keep their distance from the domestic guys. There are 2 car clubs around here that consist of IMPORTS, and or other 4 cylinders. I hang with them and work on their cars. The only time one of them asked me to race was a N.O.S equipped cavalier. Yeah i know i typed NOS because it had the brand name NOS. They are cool kids. So when i raced this Civic, i had never seen him before, so i went after him to chat for bit. Then he says he went to NEDW and beat up on Mustangs all day i wanted to see if he had anything. After i wasted him 3 times, i talked to him for a bit. Now he knows im faster its ok. And who ever said i knew i would win because of my big bad V8. Well, im only pushing 207 hp! Thats right, some imports have more than me!. And my big bad 14.5 in the quarter. Yeah I have been killed at NEDW bya 4 cyl. before. I dont care. He was the one boasting a 13.5. I knew what i ran, and i wanted to see if he was likethe usual ricer and talking ****. As for 2000SI, sorry if you took it to heart, but i knew when i posted this, you were one of the people that would post back for sure. lol. And then a couple ricers, saying that im now the great amerian hero because i beat an import. It was fun, neither of us got into a fight. ( I've seen it happen) and we both went home happy. Oh yeah and he did have a big fart can and a cold air intake that looks like he has an intercooler. I didnt think they made them, but i was wrong when thinking they didnt make fake blow-off valves.

hokay :)

now we're all on the same page- I def. agree about the kids who believe putting an intake and exhaust on their car thinks they have a ferrari- They piss me off just as much as they piss you guys off, because although you guys have a completely different car, I am unfortunately and unfairly grouped with those fags when it comes to honda crowd generalizations

i just want you guys to realize that even though I'm starting with a smaller motor, i'm starting with a drastically lighter car- MY civic has a stock motor found in acura integras and has thus far managed a best 1/4 pass of 13.8 @99 mph

i'm 5 grand into a car that is already running 13's, and while i'm not doing it with the massive brute force that you guys are, i'm still pulling similar times to a fair amount of mustang owners- And believe me, I def. understand that starting with a four banger is somewhat of a handicap, and that i will almost never keep up with a mustang all motor- But a good turbo setup on my motor will move me down into the 12's for about 15k, which i still feel like less than most of you have spent on yours cars and that is why honda appeals to me

and please don't think that just because i like hondas means i don't think any other car on the road is even worth the rubber it rides on- everyone of us is interested in the same thing- and that's going fast- whether you do it in a honda, a mustang, a corvette, or your mom's minivan- if it's fast it's cool with me

just didn't want to get off on too much of the wrong foot here :)

Once again 2000Si has to stand up for a weak honda that was out looking for an asswhoopin! The guy even said "arent you the one we just beat"! That in itself deserves an asswhoopin! They drive their fart cans around like they are the sh!t then you blame us for beating up on them. Makes no sense to me.

Yes... if there were two cars left in the world, that being a honda and the other being a Mustang, then the Stang would be the end of all cars!

Uh... I never stood up for the guy out looking to get his ass beat by a GT... not once did I defend him, his car, or his actions in any way.
