I'm not a foreign car guy by any stretch of the imagination, but not too bad[sm=thumbup.gif]

I really dig those wheels




mcbaes72 -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/18/2005 11:13:31 PM)

Although I see too many Civics, Eclipses, RSXs, etc. fixed up in my area, yours is still nice. I like the mesh wheels the most. Black spokes w/ a polished lip on a white car would look even better, IMO. I still voted "yes" in your poll.

ThunderbirdJunkie -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/19/2005 7:32:12 AM)


the skyline is nothing special over here in the states, aside from the kids that have seen TFATF one too many times. no quicker in the quarter or the curves than a 96-98 Mustang Cobra, and a whole lot uglier:D




red91sit -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/19/2005 10:12:40 PM)

I like the color and tailights, not a big body kit fan. Nice car though [:D]

???

Acutally it is.


1.9 mph, .29 sec. faster in the 1/4 mile

3 mph faster top speed

Full second faster to 60 mph

16 mph faster in the slalom

Not to diss the cobra, but it's not as fast.

BTW what year is your T-Bird? and what motor is in there? I've got a 90 Cougar it's got the 3.8 right now, but I'm looking at either supercharging it, or swapping in a 5.0.




TamiyaBassMan06 -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/20/2005 12:30:53 AM)

Wheres the exhuast evader? i do admit, they are a little too loud sometimes. (and sound like poo)




DMehalko(DM) -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/20/2005 10:05:08 PM)

I dont like it, im not a fan of the honda scene, the only one i actually like is the S2000, but then again im a euro car guy, ill race that shizznit any day

my T-bird is an '88, 5.0L, I've got a 332" shortblock waiting on me to quit blowin money on RC stuff so I can get some heads and an intake...
the Skyline gets to 60 in 4.5 seconds? and the Skyline does 82 in the slalom? (mind you i'm going off of numbers i read in MT like a decade ago) and 3 mph higher top speed is no biggie to me, fastest i've gone is 160...and that was with me in the passenger seat of my buddy's 347 ci 95 GT, and i was leaving a nice little pinch place in the seat (and the car wasn't done accelerating)
at any rate...the Skyline is still not much of anything special MHO.

BTW, what's an R33 or an R34 run in the 1/4? what about trap speed/60' time?

Me2, i like power too, your average civic's are running the 1.4L or 1.6L engines pumping out somewhere around 80-90hp

There aren't any civics in the USA that have 1.4L, and my N/A 1.6l has about twice that power, stock.

I'm not a huge top speed guy either, but after driving the civic for a while I realized I want something geared more toward hi speeds, (the civics at 3000 at 60mph :( This is what got me interested in a high powered cougar. They would make an excellant hi speed cruiser 100-140mph if they had a nice built up turbo/super 3.8 or built 5.0. The 5.0 I can get is a stock lincoln town car one. I think it has very restrictive heads on it and I'm assuming low compression from it's low output. I've got some money burning a hole in my pocket though So It might recieve a new head and Intake manifold underneath a big 4 barrel carb, either that or try and figure out some kind of Fuel Injection setup. I'm still real undecided on that project.

Skyline Link I dont' remember where I found that slalom speed, some other skyline spec page.

Mustang Link









DMehalko(DM) -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/21/2005 4:13:29 AM)

Is your stock^^^^^???? I dont think so, the fastest civic made from the factory makes 160hp at the crank and thats the si, your dx, ex, and lx if they make it put out 90hp i believe




red91sit -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/21/2005 2:24:08 PM)

I have a stock 2000 si motor (b16a2) so yeah 160 hp which is double the 80 hp you said [:D]




DMehalko(DM) -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/21/2005 4:47:07 PM)

Hahaha, well ther ya go^^^




ThunderbirdJunkie -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/22/2005 2:31:38 AM)

red, just for the record...IIRC the MT test of the 96 Cobra was 67+ through the slalom, i know that stock ones regularly run 13.60s, and I just can't find the evidence to back it up, lol.




LoCaL_183 -> RE: evaderguy89's civic (8/23/2005 12:44:53 AM)

What are you talking about, Skylines are probably the rarest nissan in America other than an S15 Silvia. I've only seen 2 in my whole life. If you say that they aren't rare then were do you work, Motorex? Honestly Mustangs are horrible cars. At 400hp they still aren't fast. Any mustang has horrible handling, they are horrible at Auto-X and road race cars. I think I'll stick with my Supra.
