Holy crap...this thread is awesome!
Admitted, I do like Conquests/Starions, I would rather snort coke out of Maury Povich's ass crack then drive that pile of trash.
Congrats on loving your car so much. I bet this is you on the page in this magazine:

What trend? Turbocharging was a diesel thing even before gas engines. It used to be about improving efficiency and power.
These days its all about making "That noise" from the BOVs.
Ok... :thinking:
gay and a half.. fagness
lol, i went to school with a guy who always "joked" about screwing cars in the tailpipe. he looked kind of similar to Jordan too, and was not attracted to chicks.Quote:

is it just me or did no one check this kids age? hes 19 and says he started the craze when he has a car thats dam near older than him?
Well, not too sure about this particular car but some cars just don't do well in the 1/4 despite the amount of mods/$ in them. Mine, for example, I'll be lucky to get a 13 in the 1/4 but will make a corvette my bitch on the hwy... and my list is a bit longer than his.Quote:

I own a 84 mustang svo that is 2.3L turbo.
I told my friend one time who owned a dodge avenger "you cant polish a turd it just smears"
Congrats on driving an older version of the neon srt; sorry if I offend anybody it's still a bloody neon.
This is one of the dumbest statements I have ever seen posted on IA.Quote:

Saab did what in 1978? What do they all STILL produce today? Turbo'd cars. Of course you have the Evo & SRT4.Quote:

Clean wide body Starions are really nice though, I've seen a few around.
All this "go-fast" and nothing about suspension? :goodjob:Quote:

Stock for stock a Starion rapes an SVO - same engine as a Merkur XR4Ti ( and I've raced one quite often ) - and Jesus Christ you are a fucking moron to think this thing is a Neon :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmao: In no way, shape or form is this thing in anyway related to a Neon.... :lmfao: That was sig worthyQuote:

Honestly, the stripes and wipers need to go. They just sort of don't flow well with the car like they do on say an old Camaro or a Viper.
cammed? forged internals? 25lbs of boost intercooled? dude if i was cammed forged and runnin 25lbs of boost id run 9s maybe high 8s...i realize displacement is an issue here but dude...seriously...a 13.5???? thats rediculous my car does almost that straight outa the showroom.Quote:

Not calling you out, but before anyone else also gets arrogant they need to at least know some facts about these cars :goodjob:
who the hell put this dumbass back in the green? lol
I blame EdQuote:

LULZ @ OP.
I'll take a pic of my 13 second time slip from my 1.8 liter N/A honda... stock internals/cams/head...
This car is awesome even with the stripes and windshield wipers. Anyone that thinks otherwise is just hatin!
HA!!! Remember when "hatin" was the logical response to ALL disagreements? Good times. Aaaaaanywho, Starions are s3x in a can. Kids with ego's buttcheese. Put the two together and what do you have? BUTSEKZ!!!! Sure, some people like it, most have done it, but it's generally looked down upon.
4 pages full of crap.. and no real ride yet.. what a waste..
I call Bullshit.

I'm suprised yours just starts.
Wow you truly are a fucking idiot aren't you....junky porschesQuote:

I say StromHammer is better :)
