thats all i need to hear, finally it gets admitted.

his car is turbo and all wheel drive, not N/a and fwd. i believe in replacement for displacement thats why i have a spray'd and blown V8.

listen i have had the vette up and running for about 500miles, i'm still gettin the bugs in the electronics worked out.

i saw the video where that little yellow thing raced my buddy's GSXR1000. the GSXR got the hit and the car didn't start to reel him in until fourth gear. (whats that about 150mph , unless your doing top speed runs the car still lost to the GSXR with and above average rider and a mostly stock bike.

like honda civics aren't made for drag racing GSXR1000 isn't designed for straight line acceleration. i'll take cecil's mid 8 sec turbo busa over that the yellow car in a straight line.

why is gas mileage even being talked about?

trust me I love all cars, if it's fast, its fast doesn't matter what motor it is in what kind of car. some honda people in here (not all and they know who they are) are just being completely irrational, I'm sure this guy that everyone and his mother are bringing up is fast, but why does almost every honda guy have to find a fast guy to nuthang off and use as an example EVERY TIME. build a car, make it fast, make it do what you what it to do and be your own example, prove it can be done yourself. no need for a thousand hands to hang from one sack. I have respect for anyone who can build a fast car no matter what the platform or circumstances, but people who just talk about what they can do or "will do in the future" (we all know how often we here the "wait til I get XYZ motor swapped in" or "get my [insert random power adder] in") are just sad IMO...

i love how there's only half the video. there was a 270lb passenger in the camaro video taping. the other half of the video, is the camaro beating the hatch with the camera man in the hatch. i don't know why the douche that posted that on streetfire left out the rest of the video.

Im sorry, but true car enthusiast respect other fast cars. I think you are just a douche bag, spending money on your vette, just to say that your spending money on your vette!!

And I dont care how fast your vettes going to be, and how much money you spent on it. We all know now that you are a douchebag, and do not respect any other cars, beside your Chevy buddys.
i like a fast car just as much as any one else. When i see fast cars i give props. its not like the K20 beat a ford GT or a Z06 it beat a camaro that i'm going to guess is going to make about 300whp and weighs 3500lbs. neither one of those # jump off the chart and make most people go holy shit. i'm not saying turbo 4 cyclinders are junk. i likes the turbocharged power, i really like the way Domestic market is superchargeing them. linear power vs. exponential (turbo) power i find that way more intersetin then ann motor making 200whp. My .998L I4 made 167whp. hp per liter my GSXR motor owns a K20

Who said it was an accomplishment? I just see it as a way to go fast.

We arent nutswinging LTWON he said he wanted to see an all motor civic that ran 12's so we brought up a few names. I do agree with you on the whole there only a few Civics that are fast on here though. So please dont get us confused with the kids.
