I have an idea for all the idiots who bash their cars!

Why not post elsewhere? So your cars not fast. Who gives a phuk? Just because you done have the money or lack the ingenuity to make it so stop forcing your negitivity on people who come here for answers. I've been here a month and didnt learn squat from hardly anyone on this board. You ask a simple question and you get 10 stupid remarks about how rediculous it is to mod our cars and 1 decent response. Jeez, does a black cloud follow you guys around and rain on you all day?

for the new people who come here, just read the DIY's. Dont bother asking anyone anything about modding. Ill just type the standard response now" Dont bother, our cars are slow"

Thats the truth. Our car are slow. Only thing that would be worth while is an engine swap, turbo or nitrous. Everything else is expesnive and definatly not worth the $$. Most of this should be common sense.

What annoys me more is how people only look at the 1/4 mile to determin if a car is fast or slow.....

most of the people here have thier cars for the streets. its nice to have a car that has some balls in case some one wants to have a little fun on the street. barely any people make a civic fast and ONLY use it for the drag strip.

when people ask about a civic being fast its safe to assume that they mean "fast" in a straight line and not an autocross track. if he wanted to know about cutting corners and and not slowing down for turns then he would of asked.

I never said modding your 7thgen is worthless I have put 3,000 dollars + into my car and buy the end of this summer thier will be 4,000 more into the motor.

You post worthless information that has no fact
Everyone knows what AEM, Injen, DC Sports, etc claim for Hp gains on the 7th gen vic and we know that they are not true.

News flash loosing weight does not give you more HP just makes your car lighter so your engine isnt strained as much.

1/4 mile times does prove how fast your car is. Not the track (nothing against grip guys)

And I'm sorry let me apologize for not helping your lie about how much whp your car has.

<---------still waiting on those time slips or dyno sheet

maybe people aren't answering our questions because they're just plain ol' stupid questions.

Either that, or your thick head won't allow you to accept the sad, sad truth.

oh, and to make it easier for you to understand, i'm not bashing civics, i'm bashing you.

the 7thgen civic wasnt made to race but if you put a lot of effort into it, its possible to do a lot of things to it.

i think my 7thgen is fast enough and i only have a simple intake. i avoid comparing with integra gsrs/preludes/modded b16's/etc. its not worth hassling your ass off just to hang on to a integra at the strip. if you wanted something fast, shouldn't have invested into the new civic.

You guys are just bagging on this guy. Guess the 154 HP from his i/h/e can't keep him away from the flames.

Diznam guys, chill. This site has become larger, therefore, there's a lot more boneheads, bonehead questions and bonehead answers. People are gonna flame no matter what, who cares, it's the internet. If someone flames you in person, then it's time to get mad and punch em in the face. Otherwise, who cares?

So im assuming your "154hp" civic is a real pavement pounder compared to the rest of ours? You are ricer who thinks he can take on anything with his I/H/E. You have never been in a fast car, only been embarassed by them on the road. You dont auto-x, and thats the only place a 7th gen in near stock form will be able to triumph over more powerful cars. We all love our cars, but we know what they are, and what they arent. You may be excited your parents bought you this car and you threw away some money, i mean modded your engine, but jesus.. be real about your car. You are still a 16 second car, and unless you post some slips I will not believe otherwise. If you are happy with your car then great, but dont try to make it out to be something its not.

As for "posting elsewhere"... We've been around a lot longer, and have seen you dumbass n00bs come and go. You are just another idiot who didnt do any sort of research before you bought your car, and now you are stuck trying to cope with the futility of your modding process. I and other members have developed a severe dislike of you and your bullshit, and will follow you around on these board for as long as you post your F&F babble. I can only hope you actually USE the resources on this board and come to realize how utterly rediculous you look making those claims about your car. 16,000 other members have the same car, and we all know what your saying is crap. But, what do we know... we've only had our cars and been on this site for 2+ years more then you....
