I think that just looks overdone, and consequently, quite bad

And if I'm not mistaken (I probably am however), there is a turbo in this car, it just doesnt work.

thank god its an auto trans. i love to see that people will USE them for a turboed car because they just as efficient as a stick, if not more. autos will provide for a lesser spool up time as well as you will not lose boost between each shift. in my opinion, anyone who flames a car just because its an auto trans is pretty ignorant and should realise its a car that were modding and not just a transmission.

Very true, however I've driven both...and a stick is way more fun. Boost this, boost that..doesn't matter. It's honestly just way more fun, because you're actually in control of the car!

HOWEVER, if you had a 1000HP car, then there would be no need for a stick shift [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

come on, guys... chill out. fiber images - a company that makes components out of, guess what, CARBON FIBER - uses that car simply as a showcase for the merchandise they have available. obviously nobody's gonna go out and buy their entire product line

this thread is gettin more and more stupid as people post STUPID @SS comments. "what a waste of money on an auto...." "Where is the turbo...." "All show, no go..." WILL ALL U F @ CKING IDIOTS SHUT THE F @ CK UP!!! u people have no idea wut ur talkin about. first of all, its a turbo'd 7thgen. u can clearly see that the intake is coming from the front of the car... in additional to that, there is a blow-off valve clearly visible near the back of the engine bay near the windshield, right next to the nitrous. secondly, for all u dummies, autos truely do make great turbo'd cars, sometimes better... so once again, shut ur pie holes! thirdly and lastly.... it is ShowCar... PRODUCED by a CARBON FIBER company, as an ADVERTISEMENT for its products. are u all dense or do u all just want to run ur mouth before u think about wut ur saying?

IMO... the car is plainly SICK and INGENIOUS! it is one of its own. it is not a copy of anyone elses, and it prolly will never ever get copied by anyone else. it is prolly LITE as hell and FUN as hell to drive. granted i do enjoy driving a manual tranny more than an auto, id drive that car any day of the week!

lol, Jason. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] Yeah, people are trippen it's an auto but it's been proven the Supra is faster as an automatic. Seriously, it's funny how peopke think aito=slow when they can switch gears hella faster. I guess it also depends on the car & HOW you wanna go fast. Like the guy said earlier, with 1000HP, you don't need a manual. Hell the automatic will chirp gears for you. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

And about FI's Civic... I'd hit it! It's one of a kind.

Let's go Jason!!! I'm glad I am not the only one on this sight with common sense. People dislike what they do not or cannot have. And I say man, lovely put!!! I'm in tears, tell all these geniuses how smart they are. True humor(LMAO as I type this), just like Carlin loves to give it.
