Most people here aren't the show type. We'd rather have fast cars.

nice cars get whooped? never heard so many haters in such a short period of time. alright, is that what u say to new cars just cause there new and nice ur gonna beat em cause u got a fugly car? so none of u go to car shows eh? sure alot of u have seen nice ass cars that also walk the walk. i'm against shopping car looking imports but nice and fast... a little of both is the only way to go. sorry guys, our girls still ride in these cars and i think i'm gonna pick her up in a nice car instead of a beater.

actually, quite a few people here have really fast cars. plus, when did terry say his car was fast? stop trying to bash on people here. this site is more performance oriented than it is aesthetic, so dont cry when someone pisses on your wheaties because you like it the other way around. sack up or leave.

yes there are a few people on here that are pretty fast!! I know there are a few car shows around town, just do some searching. You should try to come on here and make some freinds, we are all pretty good people on here. Fast,Quick = FTW!!!!!

Have fun staring at my rearview. You obviously don't know much about how altitude will make your car slower than mine, and I'm not making the same power as I was when I ran that time. You're just some guy who thinks he's hot shit because he has the new Si.

bakons06si
05-10-2006, 10:47 PM
bashing.... if people would stop trying to act all slick maybe i wouldn't bash on them. if u had so much pride in ur car to be on this forum so much i'm sure u'd put up ur times... after all it's what we're all after . better times. and no i don't think i'm hot shit cause i got a new si, lets say it did add on half a sec...that does mean my car would run a 15.5 or so... correct. don't think altitude is gonna kill a car by a whole second. onless it's a car that's running like pure crap which isn't the case here.

i love predictive racing, ohh ooh i wanna play

ok, so lets say my car was running and I was able to get my n62 maf functioning, that would mean i could turn up my boost to 12 psi, at 12psi i could make 300+whp on a cold day with a good tune and if i gutted my car and removed all my accessories and put in a lsd I would be teh greatest ricer evah!!!!!!!

N/a loses a lot of power up here. Trust me on this. Either way, its different strokes for different folks. I like having a nice car that might not be as fast but it still looks good. Ill actually be doing more looks on my car for a little bit and then start doing power mods again. The general consensus on this board is go for speed and not looks but thats their opinions. Do what makes you happy and screw what others think.

Ok let me chime in here... A whole second... absolutely some cases more... I moved from Denver to Huntington Beach a year ago... the minute I got my accord here (CA) it was like a raped ape... then I drove back just recently this year and my corolla was not as fast and I could absolutley tell... Did not like it at all and could not wait to get back down to Sea Level... One thing you will notice about this board, is the majority of people that are building a fast car are boosting, you will not seem but a few people trying to Build an all-motor monster. SOme have tried but the Altitude sucks the dream right out of them...
Welcome, But the New Si stock is not very fast at all, Put some mods and you got yourself a pretty good runner. Looks are exactly what people say, Different strokes for different folks... I think they are ugly... But so is my car but I bought mine for gas mileage and daily driving until Project S15/RB25 is complete...

My car ran 12.6 all motor here and I picked up to 11.7 by going to Firebird int'l raceway in Arizona with just jet changes. Blew up the rear end because the rear was happy with mid 12's, but really unhappy with the extra power at 120 feet ASL. It took a 125HP N2O shot to get it back to 11.6's at 5800'. The altitude makes a HUGE difference. Just my $.02

can the new si hit the 126mph speed barrier? If so, take me back to 1982!

BOT - considering sea level Z's can hit very low 13's or even high 12's w/ a very good driver and lightly modded... up here in Denver they run 15.1+ and that's with even a seasoned dragger. Altitude can easily add a second+ to your 1/4 mile time. A 15.7 geo might humble you.

My car is rated at 15.5 1/4 stock I ran out here and hit 16.036. I was expecting 16.5 with altitude. What do the stock Si's run? Like everyone else stated altitude def. makes a difference I always expect about a 1sec difference.

First of all, you need to learn to roll with the jokes here. We joke around, aka "your car sucks and is slow" etc.. thus my 1/4 time in my profile.

Second, how the fuck is a brand new Civic a show car? It's just a fucking new car, they're everywhere, so a preemptive "get over yourself" from yours truly (no offense).

So welcome to Colorado, good luck with the local shows in your new car, and learn to roll with jokes and have a sense of humor.. or you'll get walked the fuck over by these guys :biggrin:

AWD > all. Period. :)
I don't want to get into a pissing match, but AWD is nice for about 30 feet, then the extra drivetrain just soaks up power, and when you start making big power, AWD parts start blowing up. Plus, a well set up RWD car transfers the majority of the weight to the drive tires when they need the traction the most, right at launch... of course I'm talking about drag racing. Auto-x, and even street driving, is a totally different animal.

Yea Altitude makes a difference, for example a stock Nissan Sentra Spec-V SE-R is claimed to run a 15.5s 1/4. But I was talkin to someone who owned one and ran something like 16.2ish.

And everyone flames if you're talkin about the IMPORT SCENE or STREET RACING, lol I had to learn the hard way, but whatever everyone has their own thing, just go do your thing...

Your stock Si has a very high chance of losing alot of races until you do something special. Accept reality and things will look up.

Go figure, but my car (a 1994 Volvo 850 HPT) is supposed to run 15.6s stock. I got it to run a 15.89 stock up at Bandie with 120k on the clock.

This year with just an intake it ran a 15.42.

As for the "import scene", it is nonexistant. Cops here took FnF pretty damn seriously so it seems. There used to be organized races at Horsetooth Dam in the Fort, now there are just a bunch of punk-asses :ethug: that cruise College on Fridays and Saturdays.

And to the dude in the Si. I got flamed harder than you can imagine on the CSU boards because I didn't like people talking shit about my Volvo because it is ten times nicer than any of their cars AND it can beat half of them. Some people are just asses. Either don't talk to them, ignore them, or make them look stupid so everyone turns against them. From experience, the second is the easiest.
