    Woulda coulda shoulda....wish in one hand and spit in the other and see which one fills up faster.... :jerkit:

    "Wait until next year when I get"......do you know how that is?

    You've been saving since 12???? What, your lunch money?

    You think somebody is gonna give you $27k for a USED RX8???? Smoked dope lately?

    Even if what you say is 100% true, it only shows your IQ matches your age if you have $40k and you are gonna spend it on an RX7????? Brilliant. You don't need a car, you need guidance with a side of maturity.

    One other thing....

    Whatever this "mod" is that you keep talking about putting on your rx-8... you need to do some more research.

    The Greddy Turbo kit is internally wastegated at 6psi "For safety reasons..."

    What does this mean??

    I believe it means that the Renisis engine you have cannot handle boost too well... It produces a BRUTAL 240 something whp @6psi. Not NEARLY enough to beat Val's Evo, or a STOCK TT Supra... Let alone.... mine...

    I'm getting this great deal on a used concord jet. Holy crap man, I've wanted one now since I was like 3 years old. My parents started a trust fund for me to go to college, but I said fuck that, I so need that jet. I'll take anyof you on as soon as I get it, I'm also dropping like 40k into her to make her street legal and all. So watch out, you see my ass on 400, I'd stay the hell outta my way. Good thing I'm getting 25k outta my used srt.........

    sorry honeys but that evo and supra are going to have a extremely hard time beating that. that turbo alone is capable of 800ps, and a fd can out turn a evo any day, and the supra isnt even close.
    then again that will take over a year to complete so meh.

    haha whew, sorry about the comment mogallo, its been a long day.


    reading comprehension is good.
    You say you are going to do all of this when you get a FD.

    Ok, you can start by answering a couple of questions for me, if you don't mind.

    Who is your engine builder? I assume you already have talked to him before you posted this list up. After all, you wouldn't pick out a turbo without knowing exactly what porting he is going to do.
    Also, who is your tuner? You definately wouldn't have posted a list like this without his advice. What engine management system are they telling you to use? I didn't see one listed.

    Also, that Holley fuel pump and injectors are not going to support 800hp, you will need 850's in the primaries, and 1600's in the secondaries for that. You will also need the K2RD fuel rail upgrades. Your engine builder didn't tell you that?
    BTW - Mazdaspeed rotors? With that setup you would need 87 TII rotors and cut them to 3mm.
    A Cusco 4pt.? You have no clue about rollcages obviously. If you really are pushing that much power, you will need a 6pt at minimum and preferably a Kirk.
    Wet N2O system: Who is installing it and tuning it?
    ACT clutch? It won't hold the power. Believe me, I know. You will need an Exedy twin-plate at least.
    BTW - The only reason that your Cusco LSD won't snap is because your 18" Advan tires won't hookup. With 800hp, you will need a widebody to put the power to the ground.

    Not only is he owned once more, but after the epiphany he just had he now has a couple of new things to add to that ever growing wish list.

    Why won't he ever answer me.

    He has answered the civic and the focus, but he won't race a freaking 1992 nissan sentra? Sentras are slower then focuses and civics!

    I wanna kill an rx-8. Then laff at him.

    halfbaked: believe me, at the rate premium fuel is going up and how much it is now i wouldnt waist half throttle on this guy.

    and kid stop waisting your time trying to be cool, no one likes that. be yourself. no one cares if you dont have a fast car or whatever, most ppls on here are daily abused beater cars and everyone excepts them. stop trying to be a hard ass! if you really do own an RX8 stop trying to race ppl on this site they will just embarrass you, myself included, straights or twisties. and if you really are telling the truth about the RX-7, dont waist 40k on the 13b. you can get a tuned 400+hp 20b for 30k. thats 50% increased displacement and endless possibilities!

    The majority of the cars on this site are a joke.
    There is very few quick cars on this site.
    Seriously, all the hot Galants and Accords with I/H/E aren't shit.

    I got an avenir swap, same sr20det just newer motor with no top mount, comes stock with a sidemount and a ball bearing t25. Only real difference.

    I actually hook up pretty well starting in 2nd. 1st will give me some trouble sometimes.

    Shallowford road and canton hwy.

    It scoots, the boost is lowered back to 7psi right now. I need to get some bigger injectors and I'll be making more power. At 7lbs I made 202/205.

    I don't really go to any meets, but I'm out on barrett every now and then.

    It's fun, I'd glady give ya a ride. As for me I got a stock headgasket, but I don't need to upgrade at the power I'm making. My motor is turbo'd stock, so it's ok for now atleast.

    Do you really think you had to tell us this on page 8 when we established it on page 1?
