    Default people who dont know about their cars

    i hate when someone is new to the world of owning a nicer cars.
    friend thinks that since he bought an s2k, (his first real import. he had an MX6 before it) so i decided to fuck with him pulling a similar trick like the flux capacitor joke. text conversation went this way. im still laughing

    him: hey man herard wes got a new car what did she get
    me: 92 prelude
    him: nice got anything done to it
    me: a jdm h22, weight reduction, megan headers, and megan catback
    him: what happened to fixin up the beetle
    me: ha she found a buyer. sold it for 5300
    him: oh so she can take you now
    me: yeah, you too. kinda sad but not me for long
    him: oh i dunnno about that
    me: nah you would be suprised, it beats a stock s2k
    him: well if it does, not by much. the guy who had my car had twin turbos on it


    THIS IS WHERE IT GETS GOOD
    me: you said it had twin turbos on it?
    him: oh yeah the kid had those but took them off
    me: was the guy running methanol in the gas tank to compensate for the boost increase?
    him: i dunno. why, is that bad?
    me: no, you need methanol to keep from locking up the engine with twin turbos on 4 cylinder engines. thats why im buying a supercharger
    him: oh. i dunno. when you gonna get yours? what do you think would be a good comp for my car would be
    me: for an s2k, prob a Hondata Gateway 2zz
    (hondata is the lead in to make him believe it. we all know gateway computers. and the celica gt-s engine is a 2zz)
    him: would it make it faster?
    me: it would boost your vtec engagement and fuel torque. could maybe put you in the mid 13s in the quarter mile
    him: nice

    nothin else but its kinda sad id do that to my own friend and then post it here. wow

    Some kid here in Augusta bought a super clean SC300 (already with body kit and rims) from a used car dealership a couple years ago. About a week after he bought it, I spotted him in a parking lot and told him "Nice ride." Then I asked what his plans for the car were. His response:

    "Skyline."

    I stared at him for a few seconds and then asked him wtf he meant. Then he proceeded to tell me how the Lexus SC300 was the same platform as a "240," and that a Skyline GT-R drivetrain would bolt right in. I asked him if he realized that his car was made by Toyota and not Nissan. Then I got the blank stare in return. Then I told him it'd probably be easier to drop in a 350. He looked a little heartbroken. Then he gets all aggro and says "Well, I guess the dealer lied to me."

    "Yeah man, no shit."

    Then I said "Bye," and took off. What a tard.

    I was giving him shit. I also mentioned the 2JZ swap, but the 350 comment was a lot more of a stab at his noobness.

    no fucktard, vtek is nothing more than a louder noise resulting in a "horsepower" increase on the simple yet innaccurate "butt-dyno"

    kinda of topic but....call your local auto zone and ask them for a muffler bearing. You will suprised of how long it takes for them to figure out that they dont carry them.

    Also, call the same store and ask them for radiator cap for a 70 model vw bettle. The punch line is that they only came with air cooled motors.

    It's better if you ask for a water pump, since they are all vehicle-specific. Radiator caps are pseudo-universal, so they might just tell you they have one in stock. They'll actually have to look up the water pump in their computer! (If they haven't figured out the joke yet)

    I live in Newnan,a town where people with hondas dont know anything about them. They cut the springs, put halo headlights, and put some fat 17-18'' rims on it and with some subwoofers in the back that make the car rattle louder than their fartcan exhausts do.

    I decide PTC is more classy and have better cars so I fit in a little better over there.

    A sample of a conversation I had with a friend.

    Him: You must have flashed your ECU because your VTEC is upgraded
    Me: No it isn't. It's stock and never had ECU tuned/flashed and you cant upgrade VTEC.
    Him: Yeah because when you are at WOT and shift, your VTEC isn't supposed to stay engaged when changing gears.
    Me: VTEC is set at an RPM and if I shift without allowing the revs go below 5500 RPMs then it stays engaged.
    Him: Nah man, thats custom someone before you must have flashed the computer for more power.
    Me: That makes less sense than a homeless man.
    Me: The person before me was my brother and he did nothing to the car but put some AEM intake on it and before that some 40 year old man bought it new and drove it to work every day for 156k miles.
    Him: Well I still think that ain't stock, man.

    Funny how your on here making fun of your friend for not knowing anything about "nice cars". Since when do 4 cylinder motors had headerS

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!

    him: what happened to fixin up the beetle
    me: ha she found a buyer. sold it for 5300
    him: oh so she can take you now
    me: yeah, you too. kinda sad but not me for long
    him: oh i dunnno about that
    me: nah you would be suprised, it beats a stock s2k
    him: well if it does, not by much. the guy who had my car had twin turbos on it


    THIS IS WHERE IT GETS GOOD
    me: you said it had twin turbos on it?
    him: oh yeah the kid had those but took them off
    me: was the guy running methanol in the gas tank to compensate for the boost increase?

    me: no, you need methanol to keep from locking up the engine with twin turbos on 4 cylinder engines. thats why im buying a supercharger
    him: oh. i dunno. when you gonna get yours? what do you think would be a good comp for my car would be
    me: for an s2k, prob a Hondata Gateway 2zz
    (hondata is the lead in to make him believe it. we all know gateway computers. and the celica gt-s engine is a 2zz)
    him: would it make it faster?
    me: it would boost your vtec engagement and fuel torque. could maybe put you in the mid 13s in the quarter mile
    him: nice

    nothin else but its kinda sad id do that to my own friend and then post it here. wow
    hummm...im in the same situation as the dude with the s2k, i dont know shit about cars, but just taking a wild guess here....

    wouldnt methanol be put in a tank in the trunk and have a methanol controller which reads boost via a vaccum line, kicks on at a set PSI, send a signal to the tank in the trunk which sprays the meth through a line into the intercooler piping, not be put into the gas tank....

    LOL @ u making fun of somebody that "doesnt know anything about cars"

    Sure you could put it in a seperate tank, but why? Driving with methanol in your tank sloshing around is a good way to "pre-mix" it with the fuel. Without all the un-needed hoses and switches. Pshhhh

    Get well soon Ch@Dbee!!!
