i like the rsx or the s2000 in nfsu. I like the stiffer handling with rsx in the game. When i need the extra speed i switch to the s2000, but i like the rsx overall in that game. With 7th gens, you can look really fast, you just cant go very fast lol.

I feel sorry for you, but I'm sure in a couple years when your Hyundai is broken down on the side of the road, and you have to crawl out of the window because the door handle broke, someone with a Civic will give you a ride to a Honda dealer so you can buy a real car.

nos civic with 80 **** = 127+80=207 + intake+heaaders+exhaust+Pulley+sparks+aem fuel rail might take me to 240+ easily.
I still average 270 miles on a full tank of 91octane gas.

hit that with a turbo and your golden... But nitro on our engines
I don't think thats a good idea... if our engines can only handle around 10 psi stock, nitrous may kill it.

Well I have nfsu1 for gamecube and I got a chance to play nfsu2 for ps2 and it sucked. Maybe the xbox and gc version is better, because I thought it was horrible.

On another note, I'm getting aem pulleys installed tomorrow so there's another 10hp!

I feel the same way. That's why this winter I'm selling mine and
plan on building a 92 to 95 CX Hatch with a Type R under the hood.
