Fuck your hondas, V8s are where it's at....

Your Honda was not quick... It was peppy.

Your Honda was not quick... It was peppy.

You got raped by it, Ian got raped, Simon got mauled, Matt for close, Envous got raped once, Redrum got raped........




























just kidding but some of them did

[japan4racing]

This thread brings the lolz.......So I wanna know what all the import guys drive that makes them sooo much faster? Im aware that you can make a honda quick...I have had a few my self. Some that were faster than my stang ( I have not ran on stickies yet though!) but I run 12's with intake headers and exhaust on a 3600lb car with power everything and leather seats (power seats).....lets see your honda do that. Look I like all cars Ive owned a few in my time and had my fun with the different platforms. But bottom line is the v8 simply has more potential than the 4 cyl does. My fuel mileage is still in the 20's and my a/c is oh so cold! You wanna talk about reliability? In the 40000+ miles Ive put on my car Ive changed the oil and a coil pack...thats it. So quit whining that your honda is faster with a smaller motor and all that shit because you have a smaller car to lug around. When your civic weighs 3500-4000 and run 8's then you can tell me that your car is superior.

It was a cute lil thang

[gtsxtt]

You drive a Saturn, your opinion does not matter.

So you knowing that I'm right are upset, you drive a mustang and you know how it is it must piss you off pretty bad that my POS 4 cylinder car hasn't failed in 9 years and that I could probably out handle you in a 4 door grandma car with leather.

[Evil Goat]

Cool deal....my buddy that works in parts there called me bragging on it. I instantly knew it was yours.

awesome, the salesman I traded it into is a good friend of mine....he called me the next morning telling me the GM of the dealership was pissed because the GTO was a piece of shit because it would barely idle, lol....man cam ftw!

I love how these threads have turned into people posting Youtube videos or pictures of cars that aren't their own...


Evil Goat and David88vert are the only ones with any credibility in this thread.

~waits for the hp per liter debate to be brought up~

Edit: Dammit!!! Didn't see David's post above.

hp/l debates are for 4 cyl faggots....show me the number on the board at the end of the track!

p.s. I misses you!

Here is a video of a local guy that some of you on here will know in some way probably. His name is Brian Anderson. 64 Rambler 4 door nearly 5000lbs all original body and glass small block turbo car. faster than any street driven honda Ive ever seen in person or on the internet. Ive seen this car cruising the streets on weekends, Ive seen this car drive to the track. Also placed 7th out of 50 in the 2005 pump gas drags where the car must run on pump gas 93 octane...not c16 out of a pump, compete a cruise, then hot lap 3 runs. This car went on the hot rod power tour all the way to virginia IIRC. This car also laid down 1724 rwhp :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFFxZ-U4fvQ

also competed in the fastest street car challenge @ orlando speed world. I dont know where he placed but its faster than and stock bodied/glassed import Ive seen and weighs twice as much.:

watch the whole thing if you are manly enough ( hairy eye balls would be a good qualification) or just fast forward to 5:15 and 6:43....you will notice the rambler there in its street driven glory running a [email protected] than anything you will ever own will ever run in the 1/8th...he did it in the 1/4.

">

Now I guess you guys will jump on me for posting shit from 2005...whats he up to now? how about a fox body with a similar set-up that runs [email protected]? Lets see your honda do that!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqZFSGkUfBk

THIS!

I'll see your weak ass high 8 second "street" Honda and raise you a real street driven foxbody running 8.0's 10 FUCKING YEARS AGO YOU QUEER

[Evil Goat]

another local guy.....meet Eric Dillard (ryan rakestraw is the current driver) and the Berry Motorsports Foxbody....trapping near what Titan's weak ass Supra does in the 1/4 on a 1/8th mile track


wait 'til the end of the video if you want to argue gearing in that car not being able to hang with Titan.....try again, [email protected] YOUR IMPORTS, 4cyl and 6cyl alike bitches

[gerardojdm]

Honndas have nothing on a V8. Spend the same amount of money on a import or V8 and you'll get more hp for your buck out a V8.

[RsonGt3's]

Lmao put a Honda vs a top fuel race car Dan will see who wins the fartcan on a Honda is like a silencer in those cars

[cm7k24]

Fuck V8s, waste too much gas. Also a rule of mechanics is that the less moving parts a machine has the more reliable it is. 4cyl FTW.V8 guys need to sink the same amount of money into their suspension to keep up with lightweight 4 cylinder cars as we do to make our 4 cylinders keep up with their v8s. i guess its what you want, but i like to be able to drive my car somewhere else besides a straight line.

^^ hahaha my STOCK trailblazer SS would drag your ass so bad through the mountains..

i can pick up more power with a cam/intake install in my truck than a full b series build pretty much, and still be reliable.

though i do still have a h22 ef. the real power is with V8's.. probably why all the imports are starting to put v8's.. like 240's and rx7, s2k.
end of the day. if you want to go fast. get a v8.

[collins]

Wonder how much money went into that. not under 300k lol

seriously? LOL damn you're delusional!

hey, echo, dont give me no shit! i'm just now finding this thread

this thread is a complete fail lol..anyone can buy a V8 and claim to own a Honda. Have fun paying for that gas too, ohh and by the way, this is IMPORT Atlanta last time i checked

yet the founder of IA owns a vette. congrats.

I just think its funny that my girls car shits on most stangs/cameros..yet, yall are still so butt hurt? It's funny as hell to me that a girls daily easily hangs with the big boys, over compensation for something maybe? still have yet to figure you guys out. I feel sorry for that pocket too, but I'm sure ya'll are some ballers lol.

i highly doubt your girls car EASILY hangs with the "big boys." how about you grow up a bit and buy a real car.

so apparently all v8's come fast from that factory?? i dont think so most are typically not, to get most of them going you need a set of heads and a cam which is how much? you could easily spray on our economy motor for cheaper and be faster,

you guys are killin me! do you have any idea how much MORE spray a v8 will safely take over a honda? you can up the jets two fold.

so now my car is fake?? after you have how much money left from buy your heads and cam? yeah dont think so

its really not as much as you might think. i only paid $150 for my cam

Me (FG2 197bhp, 139tq) vs 25th Anniv Mustang (190bhp, 220tq) Si is stock, has around 4000 miles on it. Mustang had intake, headers, cat back exhaust, I have no idea how much that would affect the stock numbers on the V6 Mustangs. Both cars have 1 passenger. Mustang loses by several lengths. Let the Import vs Domestic flames commence haha............
correction it is a v6...with i/h/e......vs stock what............shazaammmmmmmmmm bitches

hooooooooooly shit you gotta be kidding me! btw, go race a NEW v6 stang and let me know how that goes for ya lol

really? because my 6.0 gto gets 29mpg on the highway and i've been beating the shit out of it for 95k miles and its been great. next argument?

[alpine_aw11]

I shat on plenty of v8 cars in my DSM, but the 4g63 is one of the only manly 4 cylinders so it's not adding to any Honda boy's argument.

[collins]

did your 4g63 fall into the typical dsm category? i have yet to see one hold up to much abuse. they can make tons of power, but break too easily.

[alpine_aw11]

did your 4g63 fall into the typical dsm category? i have yet to see one hold up to much abuse. they can make tons of power, but break too easily.

The 4g is very rarely the problem, its the fact that Mitsubishi and Chrysler combined efforts to make a vehicle. Thus resulting in them being pieces of shit. Everything outside of the engine bay is gonna break. Even all the shit people associate with the 7 bolt is way exaggerated. But plenty of people have well built DSM's that are street driven, running 10's or less, and reasonably reliable considering the amount of mods done.

That being said, if I'm going in a straight line, I'll be in a Cobra.

[Starrfire]

why yes the car does. As well as it makes the OP look like an idiot.

This whole statement is bullshit.

You DO KNOW that a v8 vette can get up to 36+ mpg right? 4cyl average 30-40..

The REAL mechanical rule is, the more efficient the motor, the better it runs. The lighter the vehicle, the more efficient the motor can run. Big (NOT THE BIGGEST) motor in a lighter car will generally be a better option.

Case in point, my LS swapped EG gets about 37mpg on the HWY. I drove THE SAME EXACT CAR with a heavy, 2.2L H22 and got 41mpg. The transmission ratios were almost identical too so don't try to take the ratio route. Take some physics and statics classes next time you wanna talk shit.


Next, Anything FACTORY made for a performance V8 car will have considerably better suspension, brakes, tires, etc. to handle the "sporty" aspect of the vehicle.

Bottom line, no matter what car you buy, you will probably spend more time and money upgrading it to the standards of a brand new reasonably priced sports car.

aint that the motherfucking truth! my 1g dsm was a dream under the hood....ran 13.0's on nothing but a evo3 big 16g and 3" exhaust....but goddamit i broke some dumbass $10 part everytime I went to the fucking track....i took 2 yrs of that bullshit and practically gave that car away to get it out of my driveway....not to mention every person who works at a mistubishi dealership in this town is a complete dumbass....I was told I don't know how many times that they didnt make 1g turbo cars, or when i landed a copy of the mistubishi parts system on cd i would take them the part #'s i needed so it would be idiot proof and somehow 4 seperate times I ended up with the wrong damn parts....i ended up going to the local dodge dealer and cross referencing my parts to chrysler laser crap and paying about 15% more just to get away from the idiots at mitsu

p.s.....it's a lot easier to push weight than pull it....if you take two identical cars, in a fantasy world i know, only difference being fwd vs. rwd the rwd car will edge out the fwd car....

Yup. They are certainly a handful. Very addictive cars though, no matter how much someone hates their DSM they will always tell you they're one of the most fun cars you'll ever drive. I can't wait until I can get a shell and totally rebuild one with updated parts that won't break every 10 seconds.

[nycclaye]

did you say "fuck your honda" and you bought your wife a honda? lol... yea ok...

[David88vert]

did you say "fuck your honda" and you bought your wife a honda? lol... yea ok...

I did. She's a fan of Honda Accords. That's what she wanted, so that's what she got. She knows nothing about cars, so she likes Honda. Kind of like the Honda fanboys on here - they know nothing about cars.

It is 10 years newer than my old beater Buick, but it way less build quality, and cost more.

And both are V6's - only 4 cyls that I have are my bikes.

[AKI-DC5]

did he know you were racing?

so you like the REALLY unreliable V8's... got it.

hm... if you own a v8 european car your not concerned about reliability because you ballin'. AUDI R8, BMW M3, FERRARI, MERCEDES you get the picture. besides i own a tuned 335i (not even v8) and i own v8 domestics all day and its my daily driver lol.

Fine. Let's run. I pull my Veyron out of the garage just to run you. How much cash do you want to put on the race?

[Echonova]

If you wanna run with the big dogs you'd better be able to pay. I'm not gonna run for anything less than $20

[Skorcher]

I'll run someone for $100, but we both have to be on these... loved them back in the day.

Can't do it - I'm broke after buying the Veyron and the gas for it...
