i hate ricers as much as rms, but i think i have a different definition of rice, to me if you have proper forced-induction you are no longer considered rice, lol, rice is the HS kid with a NOS sticker on a stock civic pretending its fast

OK guys, I think the only way to settle this flamefest is to see you both take each other on. Throw some plans out.

EDIT: Hell, I'll even bring one of our cars, and whoop both of you

[Rylinkus]

OK nuff with the flamefest boys. Let's at least talk like adults. Leave it to a SAE mechanic to be biased as hell and not even try to think this through logically. A 4.0L Jeep is fast off the line for 2 reasons. It's geared low. AND it's FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. So of course it's gonna get the jump on a lot of rides due to this.

Here's some simple facts

A jeep is not a sports car
A Honda Civic is not a sports car
Beating a Civic off the line does not make a jeep a sportcars.
A Sylvia is a Sports car
As is a Skyline.
A primered, kitted Civic is not a sports car and is also incredibly lame.

Okay....
Here is My Ride....
2003 NISSAN 350Z....My first EVER car

The Bimmer:






 

[grim_d]

what happened to your Z the rear offside quarter looks bashed up.

& is that a car bra  

[RapBoy]

What do u mean its bashed?
It might just be the picture.....The pictures were taken just a few days when i got it....
It is completely stock....3.5L V6 with 287HPP.....Enthusiast Trim....

AND, Yes that is a BRA!  

[blame canada]

still a WIP, needs new top, new head gaskets, and a fe other misc shit.

(pic taken at sellers house, I can't find my mem stick that has more pics)

And Pops' ride (old pics) :




Bad news is me and my dad are short on cash and can't really finish up either, although he did get his running and tuned, his is probably 99% done. Kinda like waiting for those fucking torrents to finish, sitting at 99% lol. Anyways, hopefully I can get a job soon and he can get some mulah as well to finish up both (plus he's busy w/ other shit so it sucks right now). And yes, thats my dads shop/garage/lift. Btw, nice stang there vader, must've been a cruise to get to wickstrom eh?

[rms2001]

That is going to be one bad ass pony car. I’d love to put that thing up on a dyno and see what kinda power its putting to the rear wheels. Little ricer punks would shit if that tried to go up against that turbo changed 5.0L. All though, I’m more of a fan of superchargers just for the fact you have instant power, that turbo set up looks awesome.

Love that exhaust set up. Bet it sounds awesome with those headers too. Very nice.

[blame canada]

erm, that is a supercharger A Novi 2000 to be exact, pushing 36 pounds of boost w/ the small pulley. If only I could find a pic of my dads lifted f350, now THAT would make you jeep guys shit your pants lol. In the 2nd pic, if you can see the blur of blue, thats the 350.

[rms2001]

Sorry. My mistake, it is a supercharger. I didn’t really take a hard look at the image of the engine. All I saw were the boot tubes and assumed it was a turbo.

I’ve seen some crazy lifts on pick up trucks. Theres a Chevy in town sporting a 36” lift on HUGE mud tires. You hear the thing coming before you see it. If I can did out the photos, theres a white Jeep WJ with some crazy custom lift rolling on 44” tires. Damn thing looks like a monster truck. Its all about worthless for any thing other than show, but its interesting non the less.

[blame canada]

yea my dads truck was lifted X" (X = i dont know lol) but has 44" mudders on it

closer look? the supercharger has a pulley on it...   not a lot of turbos with those..  and you're the certified mechanic huh?






.. don't take offense, i'm just poking a little fun.    situation reversed you know you'd do the same thing

thanks, yeah, it was about an hour drive to get there, but considering the got the car for 3500 under blue book i cant complain much (guess no one on the north side wants a 98, lol)

and i thought the super was a turbo at first glance too, lol (didnt see the pully)

[cr4ck3rj4ck]

2 cars:

1998 Saturn wagon (work)

1991 Mustang GT (Play)

The mustang can be seen on the wikipedia article about mustangs (the black car listed as having all factory options)
