^??? so if i see a car run 10s it doesnt mean its fast? so ifi see a car make 531whp in 2000lb chassis doesnt mean its fast? waht does it mean then? it runs 16s and is super slow?
I am not trying to get in a pissing contest over how many cars I or anyone else have. You said if I had the means to buy one then I would have it and not a cfew 240's. Since you don't know me as we have already established I was letting you know that I have multiple cars and if I wanted to sell all of them to get a vette or a viper that would be an option. I am by no means rich but I can do what I like to do, which is build import cars. I CHOOSE NOT TO HAVE A DOMESTIC( it is a choice).Originally Posted by Luv2spd
N/A??? If not how much money you put out for a turbo kit for that car and how about the standalone or program you are running. You talk about spending thousands, damn!!!!!!...Originally Posted by Luv2spd

I never said that. I said just because you meet someone in person and they tell you something or you see a bigger turbo doesn't mean it is fast.Originally Posted by PSINXS
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
Great. Do what you can. You chose an import. I chose a domestic. They are both there for a reason. Not everyone will like or prefer the same thing.Originally Posted by silviadriftr
It is going to take a lot more money to make an import that fast than it is to make a v8.Originally Posted by silviadriftr
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
its not just that i met him n i say oh he's fast. i've seen proof of what he does make and i saw the setup to back those numbers. so to me that means it is fast. the two add up.
Dude, you're beating a dead horse. There are imports that are faster than some domestics. But turbo for turbo the domestic will always be faster. Anyway, the original point was that I don't believe the specific 240 this thread is about beat that Viper just because he car is that much faster.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
depending on which import. honestly 240s are really cheap to make fast. lets see buy a 240 for 2k.(rolling chassis can be had for 700s) swap in a sr for say 5k since if u cant do it yourself. thats 7k for a car that can run 13s. high ass 13s with a good driver but a 13 nonetheless. a few bolt ons (another 2k) and u got a high 12. 9k to run 12s. trans am WS6 costs way more than 9k for low 13s.Originally Posted by Luv2spd
Ok, without the price of the car. You can get a much bigger and more hp motor for 5 grand. You can get a 408 short block for less than that. Spend another 2-2300 on a good set of heads and you have a pretty quick car. Definetly not 13s. A stock T/A will run 13's and high 12's.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
stil not true. this can go on forever. turbo importsin 6s n u got turbo domestics probably running similar times before u get into the top fuel genre. it will always vary between the two. domestics will not always be faster neither will i mports. neither is greater than each other. lets call em equals and quit. because a civic can run the same times a T/A can run so nobody wins. and who cares who spent what on it to make it do it. fact is taht it it did it.Originally Posted by Luv2spd
It really just depends on how you look at it. Because you can get a T/A for 9k that will run 13s. It may be a little older and high milage but it would more than likely still do it stock.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
jsut saying that what u spend intially on the car itself we have already spent less and running similar times. but this arguement has been going over on every board no the internet. its useless. we all have our opinons.Originally Posted by Luv2spd
Sounds good, man. You like imports and I like domestics. End of story.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
But still doesn't change about this guys 240 and that viper.

shoudl the viper have lost? I dont know. did he lose? yep. but shit happens. i am anxious to see after the car is back running how it will fare with a viper that isnt retarded. i am sure it will hold its own.Originally Posted by Luv2spd
I don't know what this guy's 240 ran. And I'm not saying the Viper should've won. But not have lost by 3-5 cars. That sounds like pure driver. If his car is truely fast, maybe 1-2 cars sounds a little more believable. Vipers aren't slow from the factory. Maybe I'm wrong, but maybe I'm right. We won't know until he races one that has a good driver. That is just my opinion.Originally Posted by PSINXS

^agreed. i just wanna see when nyteryder returns.

I may be here late... but...
I have a thousand videos of Luv2Spd BARELY beating my buddy's 100% STOCK SRT-4 w/ 3 ppl in the car. Not trying to start any shit... but I keep seeing LuvSpd mentioning how her T/A runs 10's, 9's, 8's, negative 5's, etc... but I think otherwise. Oh, btw, I zoomed into your license plate in the videos and it does say "LUV2SPD" just to prove it was you.
Whoever turned this thread into your typical 15yr olds at Kroger waiting for their mom's to finish grocery shopping while reading SuperStreet argueing about magazine times type of arguement... grow up.

yeah,but they make way more power then any turbo import and they all run just one power adder and usually weigh over 3,000 lbs. Tim lynchs car runs 6.86@210 with boost only and 3100 lbs. Brad Brand made 2500 hp with just 12 psi of boost on his 700 cube motor.Originally Posted by PSINXS
i like both imports and domestics but i got to ask if imports are running similar times why don't they run in the world street nationals in orlando? Anyone can enter buts its always just domestic cars? Maybe its the one power adder deal that scares them off since the motors are so small to compete they need to spray on top of boost. Just think if the domestic guys were to spray on top of just running boost.
if they sprayed they would go back in time. its agianst the laws of nature.
lmao! the flux capacitor just kicked in baby!Originally Posted by PSINXS
Hmm... I distictly remember having to keep slowing down because I couldn't tell if he was going or not, with a sticking clutch. When did I just barely beat him? That was a joke race. I never said anything about my car running 9 seconds. And coming from someone who runs 12s, you shouldn't even be posting right now. You have one video. Not thousands. I haven't raced my car a lot around imports. He said it had an upgraded turbo, not stock. Post the videos. All of them. Not just when he goes flying past me after I already slowed down. I even asked you to see the video and you never sent it to me.Originally Posted by ct9a gsr
If you are talking about when I hit the brakes and he went flying past, then yeah he beat me. You truly are a ricer. You lose by about 7 cars and are just barely beat. But you beat someone by half a car that is just dominating and pulling. We all know your car is slow that is why you don't ever want to race.

wow, this whole thread is people comparing a bunch of irrelevant shit.
the video was posted, the 240 won the race. was it due to driver error or is the 240 just faster on the highway? this whole argument proves nothing toward either reason. it's still very likely that the 240 vs a stock viper with a good driver could win. marshall's 240 ran with a Z06 making similar power to my car (which is also right where nyteryder's car was at the time of this run). when marshall and i went at it on the highway he was barely creeping on me in the Z06 with bolt-ons (an uphill run i might add).
mythbusters say it's plausible and people should quit arguing this shit to death, it won't change the outcome.
i am and don't call my shirley! haha i'm sure no 6 second 1/4 mile import is a street car either and thats what we were talking about.Originally Posted by silviadriftr

Is that the night you asked me to race, too? You call that a race? When a bunch of imports followed and got in the way. Were you there? If so, you remember when we "raced" through about half a gear. All of the imports kept getting up in front of us when we slowed down. It wasn't a fender. Do you remember the traffic and the 18 wheeler riding his ass? Do you have the video for it? If so, post it. So we can all get on the same page of that awesome "race". If not, we can do it again.Originally Posted by SpeedM0nkey
This is the girl. The one driving the car. Maybe you should teach your friend how to race and leave everyone else behind. And as for the guy, I don't think any of you should start running you mouth about him.
Tell you what, when you both can leave the other 5 cars behind we can run. Until then, you have no room to talk.

people at those meets follow everyone, its retarded, but.. what am i gonna do?.. nothing.. you had some room to mess around in, and your "fast" car put a fender on a stock 13 yr old 300zx

Try again. It was not that late yet. That hadn't even kicked everyone out of the parking lot. If you were up ahead then you were one of the dumbasses that kept getting in the way. Not stretching anything. I didn't say it was 5pm traffic but there were too many people to get in a good run. Especially with all of you guys following. Like I said, leave your little import gang behind and we can run them again.Originally Posted by SpeedM0nkey
The only import races any of the people on IA have seen:
This with the 300zx TT
Some turbo hatch Civic
And the neon
Like I said, if you have any videos of these post them. And we can see who is stretching what. How would you even know who beat who if you didn't even see it? Just by what he told you. :jerkit:![]()

I said we can do it again. I'm just saying how can you claim to win that race? Not only did we not get in a good run but 1. I always let him get the jump, 2. We didn't have time before one of you jackasses were in front of us for me to put multiple car lengths on him, 3. You didn't even see it! What are you complaining about?Originally Posted by SpeedM0nkey
Your right. Video does shut up fags. So maybe I should go buy one to video the next race to shut you up.
