I dont think he knew what he ran in the 1/4. I believe that I among others offered him the opportunity to hand us our asses at the track. Funny he never showed up. Good tuning does make up for alot. High and low compression alike. After meeting Mugent3t4, I got the very strong impression that he didnt know crap about his own car and all the work was done at a shop by someone else. So I have a strong idea that he didnt know much about tuning.
I dont know about you, but I happen to have some experiance in turboing a non turbo car. Perhaps I am ignorant, then again maybe I am speaking from experiance.

Feel free to do your own thing, I have done mine and am very happy with the path that I have taken.

 

Lets just say he didn't know too much about tuning...I mean who could with directional tires going the wrong direction?

Now there is someone that I'd love to have tune my car!

 

I would be interested to see that timeslip. It makes me wonder when a new 350z runs a 13.9-14.0 stock with 287hp and TQ in the same ball park, and a stock ITR runs the same time. The weight diffrence isnt enough to make up for that. Your friend may have run that time, but I question if it was stock, gutted......
I am impressed if you ran a 14.7 in your ITR stock. You must be a good driver. It is what the car is suppose to run. I have seen modified Type-Rs run in the 15s. Perhaps I have just been to a crappy track too many times, where do you race at? What are the details of your run?

 

hahahahaha. Thats great.

 

i'll run you whenever dinwiddie opens back up, just for fun that is.

 

R Guy...there arent many Hondas on this site and you are def. making us look bad. Look I do believe that a Type R can go 13's I just dont belive that you will go 13's and def dont believe it happening on street tires in full ITR trim. Either way you have a problem getting your point across because you just talk shit to everyone. Like when you told me I should run my car with steelies because thats what I have on their for the winter, and that It would be making my car something it wasnt if I put my drag radials on it. Come on now man you are a hater, and it seems like everyones car on here will dog urs. I know I already offerered you a race on the track or off I will give you 5 cars and the brake and I will run the steelies that you insist i should run on.

 

My friend's Supra runs a 8.86 @ 158 mph. What does that have to do with my car and what it runs? Nothing.

Just because someone runs XX.XX times with their cars with Y and Z mods does not mean that you can do the same. Don't talk until you can back it up with some timeslips.

-h

 

THANK YOU HUNG! its about time

 

OK, I don't like to get into other's "shit" but 3 things...

1. in response to Hungwin's post. He never said HIS car was running those times, ALL he said was that his friends car runs xx.xx to show that a slightly modded ITR CAN run in the 13's or damn close to it. He wasn't claiming anything to do with the fact that bec. his friends car can, his can too. He just gave an example that ITR's can get into the 13's. It's just like if i said a supra couldn't run 11's and you say that your friends supra ran 10's to dissprove what i said. Lighten up.

2. SpecVT, ok. You have SpecV, cool...they sound like some cool cars, and I can imagine that they can be fairly quick. But I have to agree with RGUY when he questioned the "man" part with regards to racing on the streets. I know MOST people in here do it, some quite often. Think about this. Maybe you are racing some car, and you win, so you are lookin back in your review mirror or something and hit someone ahead of you, killing them. So you live and you don't have to suffer the idea of dying in a street race, but someone else DID. You are right, we all could die at any moment, I could die TYPING this post, but i'm not going to go out and increase my chances further than i have to or risk someone else's life/lives. Two years ago, I got a wreckless ticket, and I don't race anymore on the streets. If you do run against another car, i would hope that there would be NO others cars around. I'm sorry to preach, I just don't think it is worth all that in the end. But to each his own, and i hope all your runs and others are safe.

3. Sorry for the longs posts, but I was reading this and had to say something. I like to vent when i read stuff that frustrates me.

4. This is not an RGUY ASS KISSING POST either, lol. It just seemed that most of the hostility was against him and I thought he had some good points.

Peace,

J

 

I understand that to an extent but still there are 8 second civics out there but mine wont ever see that. We are just saying of course some cars do this some that, but without any proof it doesnt mean ne thing
