Whats up wit all the cars? What? No1 likes a nice truck now n then?

This was my X-mas gift, any ideas on what I can do to it performance wise? Im thinkin about a K&N cold air intake and/or a computer chip.

haha pig," 5 block radius" i wouldnt go for a system on my future car tho.
i think im gonna get my brothers AE86 when i can drive, if he didnt sell it already and i hope he doesnt. i would probably get intake, exhaust, header, then coil overs and some wheels (Volk TE-37's)!!!!

...i would never get Nos on my car. And Nos on a bike is scary haha.

all i gotta say... is either this board is fulla liars acting old... are you guys ARE old... well old enuf at least... i prefer to think the latter

heh, the butterfly valve is something that quiets the engine's screaming at high revs in a celica... it doesnt really do much but make the engine quieter....

and dieselboy, you got one nice car.... how old be u?!

Ok not to be rude but even the ones making fun of the so called "riced-out" cars, you too might as well be cooked with chicken and eatin with chop sticks. I mean people think that just because a Nissan 200sx has grounds and some stickers that they have NO idea what they are doing. But I have seen some 200s spank the sh** out of a Viper with just tt . I mean yea NITROUS (politically corret) is the easy way out. But why not let people use it? The only thing I really hate is to see a j-body car (cavalier,neon,etc..) with a bootleg Skyline GT-R enigma. But thats their thing. If they like to be mocked and ridiculed for something like that let them. And also wings and body kits actually improve a cars handling and performance by cutting down wind resistance and adding downforce. I am putting together a tuning guide based on what I know and some of my notes I have taken over the years. I might have it up for download later if anyone becomes interested.

Sincerly, and really wishing I don't piss anyone off,
Nefarious

first thing id buy is struts or bigger brakes
theres alot of things u have to consider BEFORE u get more power...your car has to handle it first and be able to put the power down....

as for aero, i wouldnt buy a full body kit....id buy just the front and side skirts.....its cheaper, and you dont really even need a rear bumper, a rear diffuser would do the job on a stock bumper...

dieselboy · #27 01-26-2003, 12:32 PM

To skater252000's comment, how exactly is there too much rice on this board? Becuase people like imports that are tastefully modded you immediately call them rice? Your probably one of thoes guys that calls any vehicle that isn't a ford, rice, and drives a mustang with a 2 foot spoiler or a pickup truck with altezza's.

Pie, ya its an SiR and i'm 20. Type R civics only come in hatchbacks from japan. There is one in calgary or saskatchewan i think. That is the only one i know of around our area.

Hints-don't waste money on your stereo. You'll have to pull it anyway.

If you drive a honda, go find any B-series or k-series engine and put it in. Turbo it, and away you go. And don't put spoilers on front-wheel drive cars, it doesn't do a darn thing. And NOS is perfectly safe, unless you just sit there going 100+ down the highway with it on for 10min. Use your heads, kids.

Snow · #29 01-26-2003, 01:06 PM

A cold air intake and a K&N filter are usually the first couple things people do. I haven't gotten around to it yet, but I do have a panhard bar and a Cobra front anti-sway bar on my car, and a new cam that's getting put in later.

Somebody earlier said they prefer a car that handles well to a real fast straight line car, and I'd have to agree. It's really fun to drive a nice solid handling car.

whoever said about NOS in there car, well, is one big bottle last for one boost? or like how long do u have to press the button for the nos for one big tank to empty it, and how do u have a hidden button? do u ask the people putting nos in ur car to have a hidden button? and where do u hide the tanks of nos? also, ivre just seen fast and the furious again, it got me in the mood
