almost lost 2 a eagle talon turbocharged

He riced out a eagle talon it had that gay blow off valve so i guess it was turbocharged, so i raced him at like 50 and he kept up and actually got in front of me for a little, but then i eventually pulled away. but still, im kinda thinkin that these ricers are starting to put some serious **** underneath those hoods and i really dont want to lose to a rice so im just gunna be careful.

Good run and by the way.....

I wouldnt say just cause its an import, its RICE! There are some really nice and fast imports that are far from RICE imo! RICE to me is having all the stickers, stupid 5'' tips, 2ft wings, huge tachs, etc...

i guess ur right, i get too carried away when it comes to "RICE"

Turbo DSMs are nothing to laugh at, however most rice burners are. DSMs unless modified cannot keep up with 93+ F-body.

Your average rice burner consists of a 1991 integra with an exhaust can and a blue intake. There are so many rice burners in my city it is ridiculous.

Silly ricers d!cks are for chicks. :D

1990 Eagle Talon 10.56@133mph...

Now that's getting pretty fast!

Now that I'm down in Florida and out of the Northeast, I have to say, the majority anyways, of the fast cars I see around here, are indeed imports. It's surprising as hell to me too, but technology has come to this, not to mention what I'm shelling out every trip to the gas station. Makes me wish I owned a festiva, metro, or swift, or all three, just to goof in. :D

Nothing like being in the sunshine state. Lots of sun and annoying, buzzing Integras and Civics. The occasional buzzing ford focus or chevy caviler is annoying too. :)

That's what you call those states? Hmmm... I call them desert wasteland :D Not quite the same as having 80 degree weather, 40% humidity, and being 15 minutes from the beach :p

But what we don't have here are dragstrips... Carlsbad will be closing in a few months, and the only tracks left will be 1/8 mile runs.

I call your area, people hell. Millions of people fighting for a tiny spot of sand on the beach, cold ocean water, fog, smog, humidity, high cost of living and too many rules. :barf: I'll keep my desert wasteland. Btw, i'm right on the edge of the desert, near Lake Tahoe and some of the best outdoor places in the world.

i spent two weeks in Vegas last October and I hated the daytime weather. I am used to Chicago's hot ass humid weather. For two weeks I had a sinus infection. But at night I loved it. It was still warm, but the sun wasnt beating on you like a cop in L.A.

Hahahah :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: it's just too bad that the millions of people who have moved here don't have the same thoughts on the matter that you do. :lol: :lol:

BTW, the high cost of living really only affects you if you don't already have a house, otherwise the living costs are pretty close to anywhere else in the 48 states. I'm glad you like your desert though... don't move here :)

Reno is a lot cooler than Vegas. www.weather.com But we have the dry air. It's great once you get used to it. I hate Chicago's humidity and too many people.

Yeah, huge mortgage payments don't affect anybody. :rolleyes: Not a snowballs chance in hell I would ever move there. :D

Yea, you gotta watch out for DSM. Back when i had my old 96 formula, i got my ass handed to me by a hatchback civic. I didnt think much of it, but he pulled on me hard.. i wasnt that pissed about it because we pulled over and shot the **** for few mins. He was a real cool stand up guy. He ran it at baytown and ran mid 11s. I wasnt too worried because i had a cam only LT1.

I also have a friend with a sr20det s14 converted 94 240sx. Hes pushing 16lbs boost and dynoed at 325 rwhp which isnt bad at all considering the weight.

Try running him from a dead dig next time. :D

then ill get $hitted on because i have no first gear as of now. LOL too many stand still burnouts :D

that will soon change hopefully this when i get my 4l60e Performance Tranny from Tranny Technitions on ebay.

LAter

I like the "gay" blow off valve.

Try running him from a dead dig next time. :D

If it's a well driven awd one he will be :Owned: big time out of the hole. :eek: Unless he has heated slicks, gears, and suspension.

That is until he gets a convertered automatic. Then he'll get funny looks from AWD guys when he comes out of the hole iin front of them.

I'd offer to sell him my 4L60E since I'm swapping in a T56 and turning my junk into a road race/auto-x car, but he's got that covered.

As long as he has the tires, gears, and suspension to go with the converted automatic. :D I've seen 1.6 60' times out of mildly modded awd DSMs. :eek:

My buddies beater motor in his dsm, runs high 12s on 6lbs. Can't wait till the built motor is done, probably low 11s.

No way. Stock they put out 12-14 psi of boost and run high 14s to low 15s.
