Those types of cars (hight HP civics) are the ones that scare me the most!!

Its so unexpected, then BAM, they're gone.

That is unless you can see a huge FMIC...then you know somethin is goin on. heh

 

My thing is that I like for things to be well balanced.... and personally, I think if you're tuning to have the highest hp number to show off, you're tuning wrong. If you could tune for 500whp and 200ft-lbs, or 390hp and 350ft-lbs, theoretically, which one do you think the average person is going to want? ...and it's not because of traction issues that they would pick the higher hp and lower torque. It's because people want to brag about making a million useless horsepower. I just like balance, that's all. Sometimes it's not possible, and I'm not saying the best tuning is balanced tuning.. I just think it's a lot easier to make a high peak horsepower than it is to make real torque.

Besides, isn't the S2000 RWD?

 

Yes its RWD

 

the gray s2k with carbon hood is owned by a 26 year old. i think its sc'd or at least going to be soon.
p.s. i can't believe this forum is still around! i haven't been on here in quite a few months.

 

I was wondering where you've been man... I started to stop by a few weeks ago to say hey and check out a 3. You still at the dealership?

 

new 335i bi turbo ??

 

JDM AP1 is a silver s2k with a carbon hood, 16's or 17's with high offset. Really clean car, he goes to Virginia Western with me. Seems like a cool guy I wouldn't think he would rev on people and do a ricer fly by but maybe he would. He's in his mid 20's, has had a 240 in the past and an RX7 that he used to drive to school.

The turbo grey one says "suprior" on the tags, i don't know anything about it but it's turbo. The one that was white and kitted out is now gunmetal gray as well and I believe may be supercharged, I haven't talked to him in a while.

The F20C is a pretty amazing motor but expensive and hard to make good linear power out of.

 

"Suprior" is definitely not turbo.i've talked to him at length
one night(after my car blew up and i was stranded )

just to keep this on-topic,a big FU to the green Z28 with "Z28 U" on the tag.i'm sitting at a stoplight today,and he can't resist revving at me as he passes.what a jackass.

It was me, i love teh american muscle, especially the Zs - they are better than anything else in de werld.




I had a gray civic hatch revv at me at a stoplight last weekend, the wheels were 15" steelies, fully tucked, loaded with about 4 guys. He was just the coolest, hitting the rev limiter in 1st gear about 3 times, then he finally found 2nd! By that time i was carlengths behind, damn he was so fast He gets at least 10 cool points for that one hahahaha
