    1439/2000: 12's aren't terribly fast for an awd car. You should probably look into upgrading to something faster that looks a little better.




    Actually, the 800 was in reference to the HP, I believe the car in question (the Full Race black civic) has something like 600-700 torque. Sorry to "inflate" the numbers because 600-700 probably isn't nearly as impressive to you. Keep in mind that this is still a street-driven car. Neither here nor there as that is just nit-picking.


    "Now, you have 30 posts and you are saying some pretty intense things about me throwing out ignorant statements and talking about how much I know about cars when I have never met you, never talked to you, you read one post and you know everything about me and make the assumption I'm some jackass kid that doesn't know anything about balance on a car. Mind boggling."

    It wouldn't matter if I had 1 or 1,000 posts. Your original statement was indeed ignorant. The same thing you stated about me not knowing you personally can be said about your statement related to the turbo RA. You can't rightly knock a car until you have seen it or ridden in it in person. I am glad you have learned something from this discussion!

    A mitsubishi fanboi.

    lol I didn't buy the car for speed, it has style, its a classic, you can't knock it.


    You can't rightly knock a car till you've ridden in it or seen it huh? Wow a contradiction in 1 post.

    1439/2000: Wow, subtlety isn't lost on you.

    Umm, yes I was just giving you a dose of your own medicine if you couldn't figure that one out on your own.

    Actually, I like Galant VR-4's but I do not they look good or have style in the least. They were cool cars for their time but their time has long past. It doesn't matter, however, what I think because I am not driving the car. You enjoy it and that is what matters. Think about that next time someone with a Lancer RA wants to boost it and posts asking questions of such.

    If the above doesn't explain my intentions with these posts to you then I am done. At that point you would be impossible to reason with (or more difficult that I am willing to deal with).

    See, you're new to IA. Here nobody cares. You are not trying to reason with me, you're not going to give me an internet ettiquette guideline either.I'm not agreeing with you here. It's my opinion and I can throw it out. You could rag on my car all day long and I wouldn't care in the least. It's the internet.

    You are right, I am new to this particular forum and this is the internet. I was actually hoping that IA would be a tight-knit online community because it is location specific. Judging by your "I don't care" attitude and the fact that it seems to be accepted here (nobody but me flamed you) It seems I grossly overestimated how things work. You are less than a proper ambassador to those whom are new to this forum.

    I am accustom to certain online forums where people actually help others and relevant info is discussed. Members tend not to flame others for their likes and dislikes and, when they do, they are flamed right back. This keeps this type of petty behavior in check and keeps the forums thriving and striding in the proper direction.

    I am disheartened to hear that this forum isn't like that. I guess I will either stay on and confirm that your attitude is the norm or I will go back to the other forums and drop this account.



    My question to you is: why are you here if you really don't care? You seem to have nothing positive to contribute besides your off-handed remarks (I haven't seen all of your posts, however). Regardless, just curious as to why someone who really could care less is on a forum at all? I guess it is the leech mentality...
