I don’t know why either. I had a 93 Stealth TT that was built and never had any problems with cars on the way home from work and started playing with some bikes. Boy was that fun. The best part was when a kid on a bike pulled up to me at a light and flipped his visor up then started asking me what I had done to the car. He said "I never had a car keep up to me like that before. Hell you started gaining in one gear." So I guess those cars are fat pigs but you can still get them to move. I feel that half these guys on the net either don’t have fast cars and just read **** or are not true car guys. I give respect to anything fast and pleasing to look at if the driver is cool. Most times the worst part of the car is the driver’s attitude.

I picked up a 05 STI to replace it but I am keeping it stock and they dont like that either. Man is it slow compaired to my Stealth.

Yes, they are nice cars with a lot of potential. I had a friend in MD who had a red Stealth RT as his daily driver PLUS he had picked up a black TT Stealth that was his pride and joy. He also convinced his girlfriend at the time to pick up a 3000GT VR4, so he was happier than a pig in the stinky stuff, if you can imagine.

Mitsu.....It's not necessarily the cars that you are choosing to show off in this forum as much as it is the VIDEOS that you display. If you want admiration for a nice car, at least show a GOOD video of it displaying its power. I guess you didn't know Ebert and Roeper owned F-bodies!

When the fastest one is in the 10's, i don't see it as a car with a lot of potential...

I don't think anyone was really hating on the 3000GT as they were the troll for posting 5 videos that weren't even that great while talking crap on V8's in his sig. I personally don't like 3000GT's but i never said anything negative about them.

Anyone hate videos of the cars launching and then NOTHING.. Come on camera men use the zoom already.

The launch was nice, I'd like to see the 60' for it.

Its not hard everyone knows even me that these cars have alot against them...wieght, drivetrain, lack of engine space..lol...I mean the only reason a guy builds a Civic or anything is to see what limits he can reach...And for them to reach the pushing point on a car and then break that is in its self amazing...The LS1 motor itself is a Solid motor it can handle alot...A guy that puts down 800HP in a Civic is doin it to gain respect and he will get it...even though some of you dont beleive in those cars it is just the point of bein able to make a car that is held back capable of handling that kinda power....

hmm and i always thought it was lack of aftermarket support as to why vr4's don't get built up all that often. i mean the z32 300zx just recently broke 9's for the first time in the US. i'm sure a vr4 can do the same. the cameleon painted vr4 has plenty of power to run a 9.
