HAHAHAHAHAHA... wow.. so i was reading a review on this RSX Aspec and this is what it says about the wing:
The body kit includes front, rear and side underbody spoilers, and a prominent High Wing Spoiler on the back deck. In high speed situations, a wing provides downforce and stabilize your ride.
Lol down force on a FWD... more like good for hydroplaning in your ride!

But heres its numbers:
201 hp and 140 lb-ft of torque. You've got to get the revs up to really hit the sweet spot – peak hp doesn't arrive until 7800 rpm, and peak torque hits at 7000 rpm. That means that you're sawing through the six manual gears frequently, trying to keep the engine happy
Owned... lol No wonder i smoked this guy...

Anyway, speaking of stupid ricer kids challenging everyone.. This kid with the Integra 2.2L i raced said his car will run low 14s if he shifts perfect everytime... and its 100% stock other than the bored pistons.

Maybe no one thinks it is worth mentioning it or i am the only one to pick up on this but i think it would be impossible to bore a 1.8 to a 2.2. A 350 or 5.7 is three times the size of that little piece, you bore that over .030 and you have a 355, maybe considered a 5.8, i dont think that there would be enough meat to bore that much starting that small to pick up .4 liters, tell him he is a dumb *** for driving a car like this and trying to say that.

lol dont worry i will. He thinks a early model (his car) stock Integra will run 14s stock with "perfect" shifts.. He thinks with a bored piston, intake and cheap mods like that he will be running 12s if he shifts "perfectly" every time.. the reason i put perfect in quotations is because hes burned through several clutches already.... i do give him one thing.. hes not rice-ing the car out anymore than Acura did lol. (oh and it doesnt have Vtec... so its basically worthless [8D]) However him and his buddy (my neighbor) who owns a early EARLY 90s Geo Metro are into spray painting... (they spray painted the geo black, got it all overthe winows and lights.. looks like poo.. so 5 of us picked the car up and put it in his front yard... security came and wrote him a ticket.. owned...) anyway he spray painted his engine compartment red and his rims black with high gloss paint... They both have larger than life fart cans that they used a skill saw to install.. anyway... needless to say i raped his little POS and all he could do was say it will be faster when he learns how to shift "perfectly"

well, i will say one thing about the V-techs... my mom's got the 07 ridgeline with the 3.5L vtech(like 285horse) and it get's up and goes like any 5.3 chevy or 5.2 dodge i've seen, aint nottin to a diesel or hemi or 5.9 tho...

that and we put almost a ton and a half(1400 pounds) in the back of it(of metal, we scrap) and it didnt even sag the slightest bit, where my dad's HEMI woulda been tire-to-bumber. chevy did a good job designing that car(it isnt considered commercial lol) for honda.

I like imports. They taste like....fried rice.

Ok, the only JAPANESE imports I like are the STi (obviously) Evo, Supra (somewhat) and Skyline GTR. The rest of them just....suck.

i cant stand hondas, mitsu's, toyotas, etc...tiburon is one of the most overrated car's ever. absolutely hate the skylines. EVO's and WRX's are decently fast, and good looking, but i hate em, cheap AWD!.
I dont think AWD is cheap by any means. A used evo8 will still run you around 19 grand. And the new STI sell for 33 of the lot. Tiburon is a over rated car but it is kind of fun to drive around better than a metro any way. The toyota supra is a mean *** car 24 valve inline six twin turbo with RWD. Toyota got right with her. We had a guy with a R33Skylinethat used to come to the autocrosses. Not a bad car he had a littlebit into the car but it was inpressive for a car that only had a few bolt ons. Itwasa slower car at most of the events but was mean on the street.

i think a true sports car should be RWD, more fun, and all, same with i think sports cars should be standards, more fun. AWD's are mean *** cars, but kinda hard to do any stunts without a **** load of HP, and it's what i think is cheap for the streets anyway, for the strip, they don't have as much of a edge against a RWD or FWD with DR's.

my friend's friend(i dont lke the kid) has a WRX with aTT setup, front mount intercooler, 5 inch exhaust from Y-pipe back, nitrous, etc etc etc. and yet, he said he only dyno'ed at bout 550 and 480. that friend of mine has a Evo7 and it's a whicked sick looking car(bout 20grand in apperance) but my new ION could whip it.

supra and 350z's are frigan sick, i think Supra is truly the only good import sports car.and yea tiburons are fun, but like said, way over rated, specially for a V6.

skylines are prolly the meanest car made, but that's prolly why i dont like em lol, everyone thinks(least ppl i know) that they are the be all end all car, street, strip, drift, circuit..

still, Camaro's are the best car there is
