Seeeeeeeeen it.

[ThatGuyThatTunes]

theres single turbo 4 bangers do that

[mattcossel29]

well yeah, but I have a hard on for grand nationals

[mattcossel29]

Oh, and its a completely different story when your fwd single turbo 4 cylinders weight is being distributed OFF of the power wheels. When this car was strapped down and all the weight transferred TO the power wheels..

and it runs low 8s..

Try to buy one now, and all you see is "fast and the furious car" in all the add's lol. I would probably pick one up if they were a little more affordable as a project car.

If you want to pick up one that has been unmolested and in decent shape, look at the regal T types.. They are very very similar.. Its kinda like the lancer ralliart is to the evo x.. I know where there is a pretty nice running and driving one for $5k..

lets see a rwd v8 with with under 300 hp go runs 12.00's and under 2.0 litre


good arguement though ... ps your f body is equally as gay as a j-body cavi



btw not every 4 cylinder is fwd jap u homo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyncDceRkmo thats a 4 banger and faster than anything you have owned or will own ... hows that make you sleep at night in your ls1 sleeping bag ??

[ososlohatch]

than again this fwd mini van is prolly faster than ur shit .. and that was about 7 years ago

First, lets see your 150hp Honda run 12's. From what I can see all that you take into account in a car is the hp, not the weight. Once you get over so much hp, you break shit, o your Honda hasn't broke anything, I wonder why, and to add strength, you add weight and a Honda weighs around 2000lbs, if it was gutted maybe lose a couple hundred pounds.

Second, that car in the video is rear wheel drive, meaning the tires in the back spin, not the front ones. And its a fucking mustang, not the best car.

Third, I've also seen pics of that stang and it has a gt40-88. Thats a 88mm monster, he also has a 250 shot of nitrous to spool it.

Forth, LS1 has more potential stock for more power than your four banger, and will outrun your car anyday.

Fifth, garunteed that a f body with the same mods (i.e. intake, exhaust, maybe a cam or tuning) a Honda (dont care what, civic, integra) will outrun that Honda all day long.

Sixth, a general rule of thumb for drag racing and weight, 100lbs=100hp.

That mini-van is faster than your Honda so have some respect and shut your fucking mouth and think about power to weight ratios before you decide to type or talk.

And did you notice how that Grand national is a v-6, so why are you talking shit about v-8s anyway? And how it spun slicks on the dyno, lets see a Honda do that.

7 years ago, who fucking cares, it would of beat any Honda back then and now anyway.

If you where back in the day of the gnx (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1G6wtnmdZhE) your Honda wouldn't have even been thought of, Honda was and always will be thinking of fuel economy before performance. Even when they think about performance it is a branch off of a fuel economy car, ie Civic.

aaaaaaaaand so? I never said my car was the fastest thing in the world, hell it does not even move right now.. If you are going to insult my car, please make sure to get the facts straight.. I wont even tell you what you said wrong..

It seems like every one of you immature and ignorant honda drivers want to make the excues "oh lets see your car do that if it had such and such a tiny engine.." or "lets see your car do that if it was front wheel drive" The point is IT DOES NOT. Thats why we bought them! We wanted a decent platform with a little amount of cash to run really quick times!

Why are we immaturely calling names? I did nothing to you.. Of course I know not every tuner car/four cylinder car is Japanese.. I drive a fucking cobalt ss?

And your point? I really dont care?

Honestly.. This thread was a nice discussion about a car people liked (even though it wasnt a honda) before you came in here and started raising hell.. Why? I never did anything to you?

I will correct on one thing, the grand national in that video happens to be a twin turbo small block. But there are v6 gns that turn out the same numbers!

"Honda was and always will be thinking of fuel economy before performance. Even when they think about performance it is a branch off of a fuel economy car, ie Civic."

This statement is probably the most truthful statement I have seen regarding hondas view on performance.

Nothing but the truth..

Thanks for taking care of that dirty work for me

More like 100lbs=10hp

100lbs lost equals a tenth in the 1/4mile

And what the fuck is a "j-body cavi"?

[mattcossel29]

The J-body is the name of the platform that the Cavalier and the Sunfire was built on. Just like the F body is platform the firebird/Camaro was built on.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahha hahahaA

DID YOU EVEN READ MY POST ??? i said not all 4 cyl are fwd and your rersponse is ... THATS NOT A FWD MUSTANG!!! wow

a stock ls1 does have more power but will not "outrun" my car as you say

and here is 160h.p. plus a 75 shot running 12s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv8pRjN_C8U

how can you compare a fbody v8 to a economy car in stock form with bolt ons

and 100lbs= 100 h.p. ...... HAHHAHAHAHA you owned your self brother ttftl

and matt I just give you shit cause you hate 4 cylinders so much ... I like both and have a s10 in the back yard that runs mid 11's on dirt track tires

[nateridesbikes]

A 235hp gutted crx on slicks running 12s really isnt that amazing. just sayin.
Also, care to explain your definition of "stock form"? There is nothing stock about no interior nitrous and slicks.

where did I ever say that crx was stock??? .. i was simply pointing out that was a 12 sec sub 300h.p. car ...


all I said was comparing a stock ls1 to a stock on motor both with bolt ons obviously the ls1 will make more power ... It isnt even a compareson
