all the extra weight he added onto the car for that airbag suspension will negate any of the extra power he picked up from those engine mods. its probably slower than a stock LT1 with those 20's, body kit, compressors, etc.. and why the hell do people buy a nitrous kit for "show"? just not my style, i dont think he is going to have an easy time selling this thing if you ask me.

not bashing anyone...... but i see this a lot and i dont understand see why people put a ton of money into their car when they rent an apt, if you still live at home, i would understand that... to put yourself in a situation where you HAVE to sell your car to get a house dose not make good financial sense

basicly whatever money you put into your car if you are lucky you get 50% of it back, but id say most people get back 20-30% back from the car of what they put into it. moral of the story, build a decent car, buy a house, then build an all out car and you can keep all 3 forever

as for the car, its to busy for me, the orange interior would make never want to drive the car. the orange stripes are to much also imo... the orange painted stuff on the motor and underneith is a nice touch though... if it was all black, with some ZR1s, stock interior but keeping all the orange it would look great... but to each his own

[QUOTE=meissenation]He has two NOS bottles in back, each bottle has a 175 shot or something.[QUOTE]

So each 'nitrous oxide system bottle' has a 175 shot huh?

Just to let you know the jets you use calibrate how much of a shot you put out, not the bottle.

I think the car is very pretty...Now the wheels are hideous, it is a very ricer move to mod your car and then put big *** wheels on it, some of the things he did makes no sense... But it looks great, especially under the hood.
I keep looking at it....Ugh, those wheels.

I don't hate it. I'll admit it would definitely turn heads, and the engine is far from weak. It's only rice IMO if you don't have the hp to back it up.

If you make 500+hp on nitrous or not, you can do w/e the hell you want.

car is rice.. plain and simple.

And thanks for the vomit taste I have now in my mouth.

I have to wash my mouth out and go brush.

R-I-C-E.

And I wouldnt just say that on the net.. i would go to a car show and say it to the guy.

How can you even say it is not rice? You see the rims and how HARD it is slammed. and the continuous flames IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT? and the interior?

ROICE!

I love how I corrected myself, and you're still too ignorant to continue reading the entire thread before you post. How about you reread the thread (namely, the correction that I made towards the bottom of the first page) and THEN comment.

Oh yes, because doing something custom is rice. Get a ****** clue, kid. Just because his car isn't screaming down the drag strip doesn't mean it doesn't deserve respect. Not everyone is like you and wants to drop all the money in the engine bay, just to be slower than someone else. What a waste. While your car goes home and doesn't place, this guy's the one coming home from the car shows with 1st place trophies.

You guys are crazy! I personalu don't like anything about it but who cares. I can see why meissenation digs it though, he simply likes that style. I checked out pics of his car before and I can see why he likes that car. They have some resemblences. I personaly dont car care fore what meiss. has done as far as my taste goes but respect him for doing his own thing. Not everyone has the same taste. i wouldn't expext him to drool over my car either it would probably be to plain for his taste. Just my input. Later!

Very well said. We can have different tastes, but that doesn't mean I have to bash your car just because I don't like it, and vice versa.

Well thats your opinion on those cars, just like people feel this car is "EXTREMELY bad, as in poorly executed, cheap, and REALLY horribly ugly" . Thats also 3 more threads started about flaming a car than most of us have made.

I will admit you do defend a lot of stuff that most people on here don't like but you do start some threads about hating other peoples car too.

Regardless, I'm normally the one sticking up for the cars that are being flamed, not the flamer. If I was the one always bashing other people's cars, I wouldn't have people PMing me saying they think it's cool that I always stick up for those cars.

Edit: I was replying to your first post. I just searched all the threads I've started (a whole 10 threads, go figure, 400+ posts and I've only started 10 threads.. lol), and I had two bashing threads. One was bashing a guy that tacked on everything he could find from Autozone onto his car, and the other was bashing an import. One was from 9/13/2005 (the import), and the other was from 3/9/2005 (the fbody) But I start tons of threads bashing other people's cars, go figure...

Edit the Edit: Since I'm being technical, I figured I'd correct myself, I originally had only searched the appearance forums... I searched *all* forums, and I've started 15 whole threads.
