The point you may ask? Perhaps it's the pride of tuning it yourself. Perhaps they really like the car (my step bro supercharged a buick for some handicapped dude once). Perhaps it's the bragging rights to have the fastest XXX in town. Perhaps they like to drag race and know that well tuned cars will destroy most OEM cars that cost less than $60k (my friend's EVO8 runs 13.5 while his friends Civic runs 12.2 and cost half as much).




let me tell you it's not. cracked stator cover on the first one, put me out of action for a couple of weeks, second one only cost me a broken peg, but i had rearsets waiting to be put on, so no big deal. i fucking hate retards who change lanes without looking where they're going.Nightshade wrote:Sounds like fun.dnoyc wrote:i got hit twice in the last month on the freeway.losCHUNK wrote:i can guarantee you if i had a quick roadbike id be dead
Because he's in the business so it didn't cost him much to build that car. Plus its probably faster than any street legal car you can buy in North America. And it has a blow-off valve.[FTF]Pyro wrote:ToxicBug wrote:TT? LOL its only 1 T and no it probably wont take it on yet (although the 3 fastest all honda allmotors in the world run 9.97, 9.98 and 9.99) but it will demolish the 14 second GSR for sure, since it has a lot more torque. It'll probably run high 12 right away on good tires, and thats 10+ car lengths in front.bitWISE wrote:Nice. I thought the K24 was all engine? How can all engine take on TT?
tell me, what is the general attraction of buying a car thats relatively cheap then adding like 25000 worth of parts to make it go faster. why not just buy a fast car like an xkr supercharged, 348 gtb or a 911 or something with a bit of class ?
serious question,
