Trepid Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 Hey Pony Eater,You know you are in a HONDA forum, right?!? I think he does, that joke was a reference to a dumb remark made in fast and the furious, that's why it was funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueSi Posted May 11, 2002 Share Posted May 11, 2002 lol that picture is funny. but how do the guys with a bottle almost 3 times bigger than our 1.6 feel when they get spank by our 1.6??? just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XScarAudio Posted May 16, 2002 Share Posted May 16, 2002 lol.....i love things like that that bash our cars....makes me think and laugh about how rediculously small our engines are....then it impresses me that they are so powerful for that small of a displacement i mean come on! we drive fun economy cars! i knew this when i bought mine! its great to know that they have such potential though..... think about it 96 civic around $8k 98 vett around 20k 8k + 12k in mods(turbo, front mount intercooler, 75 shot nitrous, rebuilt internals, lowered compression, port/polish, exhaust, Boost Controller, etc, and enough to buy a 5th gen to abuse in the winter, and a case of beer to drink while doing the work) = faster than any 96 vette stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted October 5, 2002 Share Posted October 5, 2002 "then it impresses me that they are so powerful for that small of a displacement " i like that quote. and here is a nice little fact. the honda s2000 engine has the most horse power per liter out of all...yes ALL...other production engines. 2.0L and 240HP stock. thats 120HP per liter. thats crazy. let me illustrate this a little further...and my facts might not be up to date about this so bare with me: 2002 honda s2000 has 2.0 liters, 240 hp...120 hp per liter...2002 dodge viper has 5.0 liters (if i'm not mistaken, which i probably am, but its gonna be in dodges favor...) and 500 hp. thats 100 hp per liter. taking into consideration that the viper cost 80k and the s2000 cost 30k...50k difference...this is a wonderful achievement for the engineers at honda. kudos mah boyz ta dah honda house of reps...peace i'm outta here playaz sorry, i got all exited.

import2012 Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 This is my first post but i just i would like tell ya'll that the Viper has 8.0 liter V10 in it...and made about 450-475 hp until last year Thats pretty much it later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 your right...i was way off. hmm..i need to re-research the viper. i used to know every piece of fact about that car, hp, weight, dimensions, how much gas it could hold...etc etc etc. then i got into cars that i might could actually own one day.

FasterThanU Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 Your right when you compare the honda to the vette, but if you want power for cheap, older cars are better. If I had money this is what I'd do to my 87 Cutlass. It cost me $4000 safetied. Its the most comfortable car I've been in, holds 7 people easily (even though its a 2 door). If I put $16000 into it theres no way a Honda would beat it for $20000. And I'd still have enough money left over to make up for the small amount of extra gas it would use, which isn't as much as most people think. 455 olds motor ~$500 complete Summit rebuild kit ~$500 engine machine work ~$1000 New Crane cam ~$150 New Edelbrock RPM heads ~$1500 Edelbrock RPM intake ~$200 headers and dual 2 1/2" exhaust ~$500 tranny rebuild with race parts $2500 Leave another spare ~$2000 for odds and ends but thats most of it. I don't know where I'd spend the other $6000. I guess I could use some of it for a better stereo. Could buy some nitrous too I guess, most people with musclecars don't really bother with nitrous. All this would give me somewhere around 550hp and 500IB/Ft of torque (without nitrous) depending on how big a cam I used. In the Cutlass it could probably run somewhere in the 11's set up right and still be driveable on the street and last a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 check this out: Stealth that runs in the 10's w/out nos i don't mean to be mean, but what den foo?!?! haha, just kidding man. i love 3000gt's (and stealth's for that matter)....dream car. (i just drooled on my keyboard...errr) seriously though...thats a true "10 sec car" w/out nos. lets see the boyz from the fast and the furious try to touch that with a stick...word!!!

FasterThanU Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Hmmm. 10 seconds, i think i wouldn't mind going for a ride in that! Reading through the cars story, it kind of seems like an import version of the Buick Grand National/Turbo Regal. A turbo car thats really fast stock and can go really really fast without a lot of money. There are lots of GN's and TR's going 10 seconds in the quarter. Not a lot of cars that can do that and still drive on the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0verb00st Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 ok, but what about a 96 ford explorer that runs 10s without using N2O and this is with full interior. no weight reduction at all. it's his daily driver. he has nitrous, but he cant use it at the track until he gets a full roll cage installed.

optional187 Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 damn dude. he runs 10's? what'd he do to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0verb00st Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 it came with the 302 V8 and he made it into a 347. he also supercharged it. i dont know most of the details of what he did. but i know it has a high performance intake manifold. the headers and exhaust are custom. but it has a full interior and weighs in at just under 5000 lbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dd_biggy Posted November 2, 2002 Share Posted November 2, 2002 lol, maybe i will have to trade over my civ. w/ my parents' '98 explorer..... too bad it only has a six in it though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
