"...your Honda engine has to the wheels."

Man, that gets me everytime.

Not for me... unless you torque your wheels to 160ft-lbs!

[Ruiner]

Not for me... unless you torque your wheels to 160ft-lbs!

Is that to the wheels or to the crank? :)

[civic95]

I never really understood that. Same thing applies to most economy cars. Hell even my bike.

Actually lets make this a TRUE statement. Our TL makes 238 ft-lbs. Come over, and I'll torque your lugs to that. Don't blame me if the studs snap.

[Deaf Pimp]

Is that to the wheels or to the crank? :)

Crank, but who's counting? ;) Are you torquing your wheels 130lb-ft for the Porsche? :D

If you want to play the torque game, we can see how well the ~450ft-lbs in my car hold up. :???:

No, around 96lb-ft in the Porsche and 98lb-ft in the Rover.

At 120mph, there would be no question as to who the winner would be.

[RedGTS]

^ what is your top speed? just curious

[Vteckidd]

no idea, never did a top speed pull, with his gearing and power he could do 200mph, although i doubt his chassis woud hold up

I'm not in it to run in the mountains.

[iloveboost]

I hate it when slow cars always pull the "I'll take you in the mountains!" card.

Last time I checked, the closest thing we have to a mountain in Georgia is Stone Mountain, and I don't think anyone's going Tokyo Drift on there anytime soon.

no it is but was i kidding... you said RX7 not viper ;)

[RedGTS]

PWNZORED!

[speedminded]

The grand canyon is over 300 miles from Colorado.

and I know Georgia is no Pikes Peak but....

[iloveboost]

Let me see when the last time I was caught in the twisties was....

Oh, that's right... never! Not my cup of tea. Although, I've never tried it. Can't get beat in the twisties if you never go.

And as far as the Colorado/Grand Canyon thing goes, who cares. I knew it was in the general vicinity. Good job on taking my sarcaasm seriously. :goodjob:

Starting a thread about how Honda dont have torque, then CASUALLY saying I have 450 ft lbs of tq just BEGS for some big turbo Honda to step up. I love it. You won't race him, you don't street race, too much to lose, but will you race him from a dig at tunerfest?

I'm not racing my car anymore. Heck, I haven't taken it to the track in over 2 years now. It's for sale, remember?

As far as Hondas go, stock ones were the target here, not modified. You can give almost any car torque with enough modifications... :rolleyes:

[iloveboost]

Big turbos on Hondas is the best thing since lesbian porn.

Remember it was for sale? I don't follow your posts so how would I know? Did we talk about this? I'm confused.

Sorry, then, my mistake. I posted it a month or two ago in the For Sale forum and some people on IA brought it to a highlight. It's not doing much more than sitting around the garage these days.

Sell it and buy a 956. There was one for sale in Knoxville I think. In the back of a Grassroots Motorsports mag. Thats one modern Porsche I love.

That and a SC targa 911 from like '82.

You should get something vintage if you dont drive it very much.

I own the car in full, so I plan on investing all of that cash for a while. You gotta invest money to make money, so...

http://www.coches-es.com/fotos/marcas/Porsche/modelos/959-3.jpgThought so but still toooo much on maintainance...but it's technology :eek:that thing has so much going on it's not even funny...6 independant clutches on the awd system, etc. The front tires are 1% larger in front to make the AWD system work properly (front and rear drive shafts had to spin at differant speeds). The "comfortable" version had 3 adjustable ride heights controlled from the cockpit or automatically by the computer once the speed increased over 50mph and again at 100mph.

Took forever to get them legal to drive in the states! Think it was Bill Gates that spent a million trying to get it legal to register then a several years later finally happened :)
