    maybe. but thats the wonderful thing about the turbo setup an being fuel injected, the tuning. have you thought about getting in touch with a shop that does work on lt1s an tunes them? you could give them your setup an send your ecu to them an they could set you a base map or a certan tune that will alow you to break it in. just a thought.

The officials will probably only let him get one pass since he has no roll bar lol....but you guys can get a run there and maybe a few on the hwy back home.

    trymy4.6-315
    That is a huge lame excuse and He doesnt make 800tq till high rpms... if 8 at all...

    So does that mean he is skurd to race me now? A full street car 6 speed.. Since u said he would and hasnt been beat guess its his 80mph ricer race or no race.. 800tq viper, but cant get correct tires to handle power

    And yes i will not be allowed to run but 1 run at a real race day with rules which is pointless to go.. if that tells u anything..

    On the street would be his only chance just sayin..

    Tell him ill do a 40 roll & Gas money ! So see what he says.. fyi I have 19x13 and 345's on it

    I said a 911 is a better car than the Zr1. It's a faster, more prestigious, more well rounded vehicle than the Corvette.

    Zosick replies with a $ v $ argument and says for the price difference he can make a Corvette out run the 911.

    well, throwing out all the obvious reasons the 911 cost more than the Corvette, i can pick a cheaper car and use the money difference to do the same.


    And on top of that...... you bringing up my car is another miserable fail. Not only is my car faster than 90% of the "POS race car" 240s... it also looks as good as the show car 240s... so explain to me how giving emphasis to either speed or "niceness" has any reflection on how i value my car? Whether you value speed or looks more.. makes no difference, has both equally. In this particular argument.................................. we were talking about speed and nothing more. Me talking about speed, is called staying in context, something you are not doing. Cant say anything about any topic ever without it somehow relating back to my own vehicle.

    I will make this simple, so that you may have a chance to understand it. A gutted out racecar is not a reasonable comparison to a fully functional, daily driveable street car.
    A 911 is a street car. A Corvette is a street car. An Outlaw 10.5 is not a street car.

    The 997 GT2 RS is the only 911 to be faster than the current ZR1 - and that is a limited production, carbon-fiber, custom-tire, $245k car. Compare a stock $110K 911 to a stock $110 ZR1 - that is apples to apples.

    Any car can be made fast or nice with enough money. That said, after taking a Civic/Mustang/240/Corvette/911/etc and spending $200K on it, you will still have a Civic/Mustang/240/Corvette/911/etc - not a Veyron, or a car worth $200K+.

    I have never said anything about your vehicle before this thread. You seem to have a poor memory.
    Now, to put it all "in context", look at your thread (the one that said find a car like mine for under $8K), where you stated that the car had to be comparable to your car, and you would pay out $50. Every car that anyone showed, you had a problem with - not enough power, not nice enough, "wrong" bumper cover, etc. It was all about the quality of the car, the power of the car, and the value of the car. You wante to compare apples to apples there, but in this thread, you don't want to limit yourself to apples, you want to bring oranges into it to try to bolster your poorly conceived argument. Are you able to understand what you are doing now?

    I've told you, we can go to the track... :-)
    Just make it RA, 'cause it would be embarassing if you beat me on the dragstrip.... :-)

    BTW - the yellow Miata never ended up getting a new motor. It's still a weak 4 cyl.

    I've been trying to get him to do that for a long time. 13B-REW with a GT42R would be sick - especially since he has the whole setup sitting there brand new - dowel pinned, new everything including MOTEC, etc. Maybe you should get that setup and put it in your Miata - it would make 750rwhp on pump easily.
    Right now, he has been focused on stick his LS2 setup in the FD - he bought another FD and did another all-metal widebody. Sent you a photo in PM

    My argument was simple..... 911 is faster than the zr1. He said he could make a corvette faster with the price difference. I said i could make a foxbody faster with the price difference. Whats the problem? The only reason i mentioned an outlaw car (which is cheaper than a new zr1) is because Zosick's ego is such that he's the fastest man who ever put his hands on a steering wheel. Obviously (hopefully) he would admit his street car is out matched by an outlaw car.

    I said you couldnt find a 240 as good as mine for the $5000 people think theyre worth. No car anyone linked was faster or even remotely as attractive. The best looking car anyone linked was a stock flip headlight 240sx with a factory paint job. Nobody in the thread seemed to disagree with my judgement. Nothing was even worth judging............ you know why???? because i was 100% right...... s13s like mine are hard enough to even find period..... much less at a the bargain price everyone wants.

    i understand that, was just sending Zosick's argument back at him to prove a point. The same as he could make a vette faster than a "nicer" car, i could make a foxbody faster.

    z0sick: 800tq yes....its a 500ci roe twin screw supercharged viper on 12psi with supporting bolt ons. the problem he has even with sticky tires is this....things break when he hooks. i will talk to him and see what he says.

    jtdb8: i have talked to a few lt1 tuners.....not many have much more experience than adding some timing and adjusting shift points lol. i decided to go with the efi 24x set up. It allows me to do a coil on plug set up, do away with the optispark, and have all the tuning capabilities of the ls1.

    any of you have any experience with lethal injection?

    Z0SICK: not everyone's pockets are as deep as yours my friend. His car is clean, he built it how he wanted, and to him its enough. That is all that counts, that the owner of their own vehicle has pride in it. Your car is not the fastest thing on the streets nor is it the fastest corvette. There is ALWAYS some one out there with deeper pockets who's car is faster. Respect man, you do not seem to have any.

    I would be willing to bet a lot of money that you have owned a shitty primered up Civic in your lifetime. That was definitely a statement a douchebag Honda boy would make.

    this is true, i grew up in drag racing and 99% of muscle cars have an automatic trans and they beat the hell out of anyone there with a manual trans. plus a manual trans looks like shit when going down the track when an automatic just glides down it..
