oh, i didnt read all the pages so i didnt catch it. What kinda track times have u ran in ur car?
Great. I'm glad you can have more than one car. I have four others. One daily driver and three others I have just because I wanted them. If you can afford a Viper and still live comfortably I doubt that would be the only car you have. I did understand what you put but you didn't understand me. And I posted that full weight T/A = 11.20s with no problem to show that it is a lot harder for an import to get there than it is a domestic.First of all, I own 2 different other 240's and 2 other cars that are not projects. The picture of the car above is not a 240 it is a true rhd silvia I purchased out of Okinowa, Japan. Second of all, as I said before I am not the type of person to put all my eggs in one basket, which means I don't sink all my money into one vehicle( try comprehending what you read). 3rd- as I said before i was posting the time to give you a basis for hp/wgt ratio of a s13 chassis not to try to say anything about how fast the car was or used to be. I could care less about your how you work your finances or what type of hp you had when you dynoed the car and what time slips you can get from your buddies..... try again...
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
So that car is cruising around on the weekends? Because we aren't talking about race cars. If you mean full out race cars then imports would be completely dominated.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
if rhombus didnt live so far away. actually that car got sold. and yes his chop steak 240 ran 10s at only 675rwhp. there is always something or someone faster than you.
Not to get off topic, but what do you do for a living? Its pretty difficult for a lot of people to say hey "I want three other cars, just cause I want them".
10s at only 675 rwhp? hope thats a typo.
11.20's are aight i guess, for a boosted 3 cylinder. I know a dude with a hatch just like mine who post on here and drive his car to work that ran 11.1 in the 1/4th. I think u just have a thing against 4cylinde cars and u have aright to bc v8 are now becoming extinct. I know a few early 90's mustang boys that run faster than 11.20's with extra parts out of their tool box. Face it, imports are taking over, the sooner u admitt it and get over it the less stress and happier ull be.
Never said I couldn't be beat. I know there is something faster than mine. I personally know someone that would walk me. Talk to him everyday. I'm talking about this particular 240 and the rest of you going along with him that he beats this and that because he is just that fast. Not because the driver. That's the point I'm making.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
he can cruise around if he wants but he doesn't street race and has nothing to prove. That car traps 150 mph..trust me you don't want any.
I guess that isn't important because its not "how you work your finances". I didn't say it to hurt anyone's feelings. Just further proving my point that if you can afford better you will buy it. I have what I have because I wanted it and can afford it. Enough said.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
Ohh, rich parents. JK.
Nope. My car can be daily driven. I chose not to. I have nothing against four cylinders. I actually own one. And they are going to release the f-body again. It is scheduled to be released at the auto show next month. Mustangs are currently in production and they are a v8. And then there is the GTO. I'll admit imports have taken over for daily driving back and forth to work. That's why I own one.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
I wish.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
Are you really a female LUV2SPD?
she really is believe it or not
I think that comes from the same mentality domestic guys started with when imports were first starting to gain momentum which is where the word "ricer" came from. "that's profiling, and profiling is wrong"
Nothing could be closer to the truth, preach on!!!!!!!!!!

I want a pic of LUV2SPD right now, I thought the female part was a joke.
Sure am. That's why it's not my boyfriend's car. So, here we go. I'm sure the girl comments will get thrown around.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
No, No girl comments just really had no idea. Carry on.
I don't mean by you.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
Jesse, Brian, anyone in awe like me?
still wrong about that. we ahve full race imports in the 6s. but that car was driven on the street on the weekends. and it is still legal to do so. and shawn that recently sold his 531fwhp civic that was capable of 10s was also driven on te street. how do i know? because i met him at quiznos.
I see, speechless. Damn. Everyone is silent.
u must know that a 240 coupe only weighs 2500 at full weight from the factory. he has the dyno slips to prove it.
Ok. And I know of a 1000+ hp Camaro that was taken on a road trip, ran at the track and then driven back home. I know because I saw the video. Anything is possible.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
imports are running faster than the v8 guys with half the mtr, looks like they are taking over a lil more than just bieng daily driven.Nope. My car can be daily driven. I chose not to. I have nothing against four cylinders. I actually own one. And they are going to release the f-body again. It is scheduled to be released at the auto show next month. Mustangs are currently in production and they are a v8. And then there is the GTO. I'll admit imports have taken over for daily driving back and forth to work. That's why I own one.
i met this guy personally!!! u must have missed that though
no i'm talking about the hp. It should take less then 450 rwhp to put a 2500 lb car in the 10s.
he wasnt using slicks. i forget which tires but they were regular old street tires.
Ok, but if you met me I could tell you my car runs 8's, 9's in the 1/4. Would you believe me just because you met me in person? Anyone can bring out a dyno sheet with big numbers and a time slip with fast times.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
shit,with 675 rwhp and RWD why would you waste your time with regular old street tires.
yes because shawn has a reason to lie. and the ppl that dynoed his car ahve a reason to lie as well. just like i have a reason to lie about seein ghis setup with my own eyes.unlike u shawn openly admits is horsepower and doesnt have to sndbag about it. he made 531fwhp n posted the dyno.
no clue lol prove a point i guess? it was really the shops demo car. he use to drive it on the street all the time then just started using it mostly for their advertising. its sold now.
And I saw a Supra with a T88 with my own eyes. But it got out ran by Marshall's Z06.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
^besides the point. u were saying these 10 and 9 sec civics dont exist and dont roll on the street. i was simply proving that they do.
And I was saying I've never seen or heard about them being on the street.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
and i was saying i did. so prving you wrong. so where did that t88 supra that got his turboz handed to him come from? nobody ever mentioned it.
I am pretty sure Marshall posted it in the kill section after he did. It was at a North Point meet.
"We can dyno race all day... if you have a Supra."
i know. i saw the thread and i posted in it. i was saying where did it come from in THIS thread. nobody mentioned so it had NO RELEVANCE. although nonexistent civics did.
