ugh, about $7,500 over 3 years. Approx. $4,500 for new ITR longblock, parts, & suspension and $3k for paint & body and cosmetics...Need to spend about $2,500 more to complete the rollcage, finish suspension, ITB's, tuning, cf hatch & FAL glass, etc...sponsors will be coming into play soon though so maybe i can be fast and look a lil better :)

My car ran 12.2 and had a trap of 116.25mph with just exhaust work while pushing 19" wheels (not great for drag racing). 911 turbos aren't even drag cars! Since when is a 911 turbo slow?

Wow, just wow...

Forgot where you at :blah: Then stop posting here assclown.. you always talking shit.. and now since you have a " BOOSTED " integra ( :lmfao: )
Your shitometer talking went up a notch. ..
But at the end of the day, you still have a Integra and Ruiner has a Porsche.


Hey Ruiner, Go sale the Porsche and Buy 20 Integras :lmfao:

06-02-2006, 09:06 PM
Actually, I've just never really cared for Ruiner's snobbish attitude since the day I saw him on 285 and he looked at my car and rolled his eyes thinking he and his car was hot stuff.

I happen to love my Porsche-eating Integra probably just as much as you like your Porsche and don't look down on other cars that don't happen to be as pricey.

I like Porsches. Good looking cars.

Edit: And my car has been turbo'd longer than it has been stock.

I've already run a 996 on my pump gas map and walked him by 4 cars. I didn't get it on video, so I never bothered posting/saying anything about it.

And also when I saw him, I wasn't even trying to run him. I was simply driving on 285 in rush hour traffic, and happened to see him. I was actually going to tell him his car looked good.

Edit: If you want to run, PM me as I rarely come in this forum.

A 996 or a 996 turbo? Big difference between the two... As for seeing me in traffic, I have no idea. I have people trying to run me all the time and I usually just let them go. Not worth the risk...

I think just in bodywork alone I have reciepts that add up to about $30,000-$35,000.
Count the Audio reciepts which is about $10k- $15k. Motor is about another $10k. Misc shit like the Work wheels and extra crap.

I have anywhere between $70,000- $75,000 in the car, not counting the cost of the car itself.
