Listen up, you DJ nerds..

Rough estimate, smarty. I don't sit around researching how to get an Acura RSX up to 360 horsepower without blowing out the engine after 2 runs. Point is, I could save the money I'd otherwise spend on an RSX and mods, and buy a real car, like a late 90s Vette.

those aren't bad..i'd throw a supercharger on that sucker :wave: but i am not really Vette type of guy..they are cool but kinda boring and only balding middleaged dudes drive them around The one and only Vette i would ever want would be the new Z06s.
Personaly, i would'nt embark on turbocharging an RSX,let alone a Type S..i mean you could,but to get real HP out of them you have to change out the internals,drop the compression- basicly rework the entire engine ,which is a waste if you ask me,it was meant to rev high in the first place being all motor and it being that high.But with a turbo that thing can be really really really nasty up top and maybe with a different head.That's why i was suprised when i saw that car..you don't see too many turboed RSXs around and if you do ,they have little intercoolers- but that thing was huge,must be running like 20+ lbs. of boost,roughly 350ish WHP- being only 2800 something pounds and an 8K redline..watch out.It's just different and you don't see them around much,but when you do- if you know what it is and the process it takes to actually build the thing correctly..you learn to appretiate it. revs like a motorcycle and the power comes in quick with the turbo.It is the expensive route no doubt, but if you're into it- who's to say where you put the money?

it's still a sick ride IMO :rockon:

Is it just me or should someone start another thread to split off this "which car is better" nonsense? Has very little to do with the initiial post, other than the photo............

Are you Italian?

Lol, God says,

"based on your pics, your definitely not an ugly guy. I have no doubt that there are plenty of women who think yo are hot. and you do in fact have a hot girl. once again, another example predicted by me and skip's theory."

Dude are you fvckin gay? Lance Bass? Come out the closet dude and stop fvckin hiding it.....:cheer:

Lol, "you and skip's theory" you and skip are a bunch of in-experienced azzholes how the hell can you make a theory up. I wish a guy JUST entering sales would try to tell me how to go fvckin sale....until you've done it you don't know shyt.

And based on YOUR POSTS, God you know shyt. And if you think I'm lying, well, just take a poll, ask the experienced guys of sosuave, ask them.....are you correct? That looks are a big portion of the pie? :crackup:

 

[DonJuanForever]

haahahhhaaha

you know what the sad part is, hahaa, you actually think you're right. :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:

I bet if you wanted to be an actor, you would "pay" somebody to make you famous wouldn't you. :crackup:

 

[skip2mylou781]

i never called it a theory lol, djf look at my original intent when i posted that 14 page thread....look at the 1st post i made on it and wat intent i had....just look - i dont kno how this whole "looks theory" took off

i was simply pointing out that those ugly guys had no right trying to game good looking girls - and the girls in the videos knew that

 

[skip2mylou781]

my bad, i DID say theory, and i take it back, i never meant for it to eb a THEORY....looks isnt a theory, its just a fact that the better u look, the warmer a hot girl will be to u when u initiate contact with her

You're an AFC, you try way too hard, and there's about a hundred million people who could write a check to cover everything you have, which doesn't appear to be much. Satisfied?

:woo:

Jesus-thefvckbastard-Christ, talk abut getting fvcking schooled . . .

 

[Gubby]

Man, friendly piece of advice here - whether or not the guys were right to flame you, you come off wayyy insecure by posting this shi't up. Let people think what they want.

IF that's a properly tuned RSX that car CAN run 12's in the 1/4 mile.The first thing you would notice is that fat ol' front mount intercooler.That style it has going for the car is very very slick-and it's just right for the import scene,the rims,wing,lights- all mesh quite well and it makes a really smooth looking package.Don't confuse ALL imports as rice..there is a right way and a wrong way to do it..that car is done right i'd take that car anyday and mash the fvck out of it!! they can be really really nasty boosted right :nervous:

Yes, I agree, don't confuse all imports as rice (like, say a Caterham or a Noble). Here's how you tell: If the guy looks like K-Fed and quotes a quarter mile time it's RICE. If the guy qoutes a lap time and doesn't look like a complete knob, it's not rice. In this case, get out the soy sauce, because it's undoubetly rice.

Why not? Ariel Atoms run fine with the K-Series supercharged to 300 bhp and will KILL most any vette. The K-Series is a perfectly good motor, it just needs to be taken out of that piece of ****, wrong-wheel-drive RSX and put in the right end of an Atom. :yes:

he FEELS like he loves her, i been there b4 and i kno wat its all about, yes he can get any girl he wants, but since THIS ONE is his 1st love, he doesnt kno how to react to it, so hes obsessed.....i understand thing guy COMPLETELY

I never bought thousand dollar gifts for my first love.

 

[MetalFortress]

Have you heard about GMs new engines? :nervous:

Supposedly a Supercharged engine @ 700 HP, Vettes get a 6.2L @ 450ish HP, and a new 8.3L LSX @ 900 HP. Plus the new Camaros concepts are 400HP estimate...

Aside from them, not sure where the 09 Mustangs stand. A guy up the street from me has a new GT500 thats yellow with black racing stripes. Sounds like a damn drag when he revs it. American muscle FTW.

I've heard of the blown one being put into the Stingray/Blue Devil/Z07/whatever they're calling it today, but i've never heard of the LSX. If it's real, though, serious ass will be kicked by GM.

I'd get something other than a vette if I had 20-30K to spend - personally I'd try to get an old Ferrari - a mechanic I know got a 80s Ferrari for 22,500. I was just comparing the Vette to the modded Acura.
