Default gave a modded RSX-S a head start.....

going home at 3am on a back road 4 lane highway, a rsx type s blows by me maybe doing 110...he then slows back down, hes got the whole "my stickers show my mods" kinda thing and a very annoying muffler....i smile and just give him a little wave....he then drops down a gear and takes off, maybe when he hits a car length or so i take off from a 70 roll....bottom line i had him by 7 cars at 140.....slowed back down to 55...10 below the limit...and he wouldnt come catch up to me...

Since when is a car considered modded with a muffler?

Anyway, nice kill. I dislike Honda's, but those Type S's contain a pretty crazy little motor.

I like em, but they really don't start to get up and go till they're boosting or spraying. My friend's cousin has one with vtec controller, full exhaust, and intake (no tune) and it isn't very fast at all- but still fun to drive.

Motors... Type S is rated at 200 hp, regular is 160.

You'd be surprised. I was running my friend's performance shop one Saturday, and actually had a guy come in the shop looking for performance name stickers to put on his car. I sold him 6 stickers I took from parts boxes we had got in the back for $12. Lets just say I made $12.

Those stickers dont do much for Camaro's but they add 5-10 whp to Hondas and DSM's

Boosted those things are pretty easy to break into the 12's. I know my cousin got surprised by one a while ago in his WRX, it was a 12 sec. scooby too.

Ricers are morons...

They will never learn that their little piece of **** 4 banger isn't any competition for a V8.

I blew off 2 Integra ricers the other day - they were traveling together, both early 90's tegs, multi-color paintjobs, steelie rims, huge wings, stickers everywhere, and fart cans cocked 45 degrees to the left. I was driving an automatic Jetta VR6, by the way

It'd be nice to see you run into a couple friends of mine. One had to detune his 7, one has a 12sec crx, one guy has a skyline motorswap in his 240. I'll be the first one to tell you "I told you so" when you get worked by a 10sec black civic(being specific for a reason).

Wow, I'm real impressed

Maybe 1 out of every 100 riceburners are fast. Thats about it, 99% of them are slow garbage.

Do you honestly think that just because a car is fast that makes it a nice car?? I don't care if your buddies CRX, 240, and RX7 are fast, they are still old ugly pieces of ****.

I could drop a Cobalt SS engine into a Geo Metro - would it be fast?? Yeh. Would it be a nice car?? No - its still a piece of ****. There where you seem to be confused, I don't care about your friends riced out pieces of ****.

Good point I'd rather have a 13 second LT1 or LS1 than any civic no matter how fast.
