decent enough vid...

 

Lol, he was having trouble with the 2nd trans am it seemed, as well as the near stock 03/04 cobra. Im not impressed, after all that money in that, I would hope for a little more.

 

you sure you watched the same video as i did? looks like the second trans am had a jump and the RSX still realed him in and put over a car on him.

and how do you know how much money was spent?

 

It showed ... you know actually listed what parts were used, not all of them in the beginning of the video... and well yea, I would imagine there is quite a bit of money, and considering RSX-S's are NOT cheap to buy, and add in the money... you have a step back from the previous car (suspension wise at least.. by previous u know I mean the integra) and he has more money in his car including price than the guys with the T/A's. There is a lancer here I raced, with about 8 grand in mods, and I still beat him, with just my intake and cat-back.. so I mean what I said NOT IMPRESSED

 

Somebody needs a refund if their Evo with $8k invested didn't leave you in another zip code when the light turned green. I'd hope that would be a 10 sec car or quicker at that point.

And, I'm not a fan of Honda/Acura at all but fast is fast.

 

What does that thing run, low 13's?

 

i'm going to guess it's "just" lancer and not an evo, and it's all ricer mods...

 

not an evo, thats why I said lancer... I didnt know a turbo kit and full greddy exhaust with tein suspension were consider ricer mods... since its all considered good stuff.. but I am no expert at imports, just try to know as much as possible. I doubt a lancer (non evo) with some "ricer" mods could keep up with a LT1, ever. Not even an L98 or LB9..

 

Patrick is a loser!

 

there is one of those here in grand rapids... the car has a crap load of sticker mods, evo style wing, 16g turbo, dinky front mount, and more stickers... imho greddy = $ mod, tein = $ mod, not really great gofast parts just overpriced mods... but i'm as ghetoooooooooo as they come and far to cheap do buy stuff with names like that (except my centerline rims, but they were 1k cheaper than volks, and the centers are lighter than the volks)...

most people here took it for granted it was an evo as i did i'm sure...

get the green on that wrx, and we'll line em' up... or get a power washer and get the dust off that tasty stang, i still to its looks...

the galant should be done end of april, beg. of may... 2.4L+, hx/40 turbo, and it should be 150+lbs lighter (off goes the 4ws, air-con, and a few other lead weights, heck i'm even trying to lose weight)...

 

My bad. I didn't think anyone would waste money modding a plain Lancer. For that $8k they could have bought another car that was fast to begin with.

Oh, and my Suby gets a Green one day. I'll probably have to take it to FP in person so they can make a model to fit this arrangement (Legacy is different than WRX and STi). So many irons in the fire, so little money -- and I just got a damn ticket for 85 in a 70 (seriously, who writes a ticket for that on the interstate in the middle of nowhere after midnight???)

 

So are you finally going to break out of the 14's?

 

did that last year and i ran lean 1/2 way down track... still sad 13's, but not bad for not having fuel...

 

and an ls1 trans am isnt expensive? around here the trans am is likely to be more expensive. but for some reason fbodies here go for quite a bit higher than everywhere else.
