Yup, you won't find them this cheap anywhere, unless they are stolen. And these aren't.

lol.. D, at first i thought those were exactly the same

but one says "Wham Bam" and the other says "Wup *** wednesday"

you DO know there's an edit feature, right!? :P


i'll show up to blockbuster about ten after five, just to say hi.. and show off my not so damaged car


only problem left is that the rims are going to take about a week to get in.. ... so right now im on the 15's (not alllll that bad, my car seems a lot quicker and about half an inch lower)


oh, and some interesting news that i found out.. everyone always asks "is your car lowered??"

cause it looks like its just lowered a tiny bit, but not really enough to have wasted money on springs for

well.. it IS!!! apparently it was a little extra they threw in with the veloz package.. lol.. its only like a half inch drop i think, but surprising that i never knew

my god 6000 rpm sounds nice, especially with my exhaust!!!!!! WOW
before the tach i've probably never been past 5000, my dad has he said, but not me. To afraid of doing damage to it. But now that i've got my tach in i'm looking forward to getting it in a drag race or two.....

Macfay - i've got a bunch of exterior and interior mods but i'm guessing you mean performance......bout the only thing i've got done there so far is a G2 exhaust and an intake.


Big - 14.8 in a 350Z.....for all the hype that sounds kinda slow, was he booting in or just taking it easy on'er? I woulda thought a stock 350Z would do low 14's. A civic can do 14.8 with an intake/exhaust and a 35 or 50 shot...probably a 50 though.

It was his first time running the 350Z down the track. He's still learning how to drive stick!!!! That car should run 14 flat. There was a 7thgen there with a 55 shot of NOS. He ran 15.7 which isn't very good considering he used such a large dose of NOS. I didn't go though, i had people over for dinner.

do you know what other mods that NOS 7thgen have? if 15.7 with no other mod...that's no too bad I guess...

Yeah, mine did that too. Should go away in about 5 days. I was worried too when i first drove my car after a day or two. Normal. As for the 7thgen with NOS, i think he had an intake and exhaust. But Sis with intake and exhaust run 16.4 at Sparta. So he only managed a 7 tenths of a second improvement with such a big shot of NOS. He should have ran a low 15, high 14 maybe.

Yeah, that sounds right running 14s. I just wanted my car to beat Si's. and it does, so that's good enough for me.

I went to Whup *** yesterday!!! Why the hell didn't any of you guys come??!?!?!?!
Anyways, that 7thgen Si was running a Zex kit with a 55 shot. He also had a DC header, custom cat-back (crushbent) and a Ractive Short Ram Intake.
I think a 15.7 was a pretty good time. He said before the Zex he was running 16.6's so he shaved almost a second off. Remember... at every track, you'll run slightly different times.
Oh... he was also running down the track with his Motegi MR7's on. Let me tell you by first hand experience that these wheels are really heavy. I couldn't believe how heavy they were when I was mounthing them on my car.
The guy said he was running his car with everything the way it was because that's the way he'd race it if he was on the street.

Anyways, he told me that he's bumping the Zex shot up to a 75 (which I think is going to be a bad idea), then he's going to retard the timing and get a Cold air intake. When that's all done and said, buddy told me he's gonna run it down the track with his stock tires. That should put him in the 14's for sure.

As for George and the 350z.... lol.... his first run, he stalled the car at the line. The car is defintaly capable of better times, but running the quarter mile is all driver. George has only been driving stick for about 3 months.

oh..that's why only 15.7...I guess that the Si doesn't have the hiflow cat...with just the header...it doesn't help much anyway...

where is that Si come from? london or areas?


george drives stick for only 3 months?? I didn't know that...he has civic b4 right?

Yeah I think he had his stock Cat in there. He just told me he had the DC headers and Custom catback exhaust. Anyways, I think he said he was from Strathroy or Stratford...

As for george...yeah... he had a civic but it was an auto.

The DC header for the Si's is a waste of money. It's almost the same size as the stock header. I heard Jacob ran only 15.4 in his Audi with the upgraded turbo. I've seen Sirs run 15.4 with just a muffler and stock intake (Mike's cousin Burrito). And all he talks about is how civics are slow. Ha ha ha.. Looks good on him.

Yeah he ran a 15.4 but he had serious clutch problems. Danny even ran the car and the best e/t he could pull off was a 16.1
You could almost tell he had tranny problems because he was getting shitty launches.
If he was running a 15.4 with a good clutch, I would have rubbed it in his face right then and there.
