JDM 2jz's put out about the same amount of hp as the USDM ones do. All the Japanese car companies have some sort of "gentlemans agreement" basically stating that they wont produce a car over 276 hp. Obviously if you look at say an NSX over in the States it put out about 290 whereas the JDM one...
I would love to have an RX7 with an LSX engine in it!! Or a 2JZ single turbo Supra with a Chevy TH400 tranny. I like to compare what Supra owners have against Skylines is akin to the EVO vs. STi or Camaro vs.Mustang or Honda vs.Everything kinda rivalry. For most its nothing more than pride in...
I fucking hate it when the cops decide to fuck you just because they can. I am here at Yokota AB and they try to pull bullshit like that on me all the time. Its stupid shit like that, that makes me want to get out when my contract is up in about 9 or 10 months.
Yes I do have an MK3. Its a 91 Twin turbo. Its only lightly modified for now. I will be sure and personally pm you some pics when I get them taken and up on the site.
I never said I Honda NEVER will beat a Supra and I sure as hell never said a Honda will NEVER beat an SS. I seen Honda's walk all over Supra's and SS's. All I said was for the amount of money you would on average spend on getting a Civic to run 12's or 13's or whatever you could spend on getting...
The average person cant get a Civic to perform the same as a Turbo Supra or a SS Camaro for the same amount of money as it would cost for those two cars.
I dont have any reason to doubt that claim. I know it can be done. With a hotshoe behind the wheel, and the right stuff. Also I imagine it would take some creativity and possibly some fabrication.
Dollar for dollar the Supra is a way better bet then any non S2000 & NSX Honda. Its better handling, better accelerating, better braking platform to start off with.
Well I could go out and buy a pos V8 Camaro for next to nothing and then put it on the bottle and run 12 easy for less then what you paid to put together your Honda.
So the other night I'am driving down Route 16. So I am driving and I see this Nissan Stagea(Its an RB25DET powered wagon). I pull up behind him and he takes off so of course I give chase. And chased him down I did! I pulled on him so fast. I was quite suprised myself. Then the damn light turned...
Your post saying that Hondas aren't cost effective is irrelevant.
Of course its relevant! Lets see here, if I could buy a 2001 GSR for say around 10k( give or take a few k) OR you could buy a 2000 Camaro SS. The Camaro ( according to Motor Trend runs about 12.5 or so in the 1/4. The Integra...
Its my understanding that the MA Turbo put out 236 over here in Japan and the 1jz put out 280 ps. I've read that from a few different sources. I could be wrong though.
