rtrdpenguin Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 =\ I consider ricers to be people who buy non-performance cars and stick a ton of stuff on them to try to make them fast. 99% of civics aren't actually fast. Not even close to it... some very very select people spend tons of money to make a normal everyday car race-worthy but those are very select people. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sinner101GR Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 (edited) Sexy. Those have got to be some of my favorite porsche's. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks man, were looking into working on an 06 GT3 or an 02 Aston Martin DB9, thing is, dad loves convertibles... That or upgrade this Carrera with a turbo and some other stuff, the total came to 13500, so not all that interested in a 100 ponies boost.... =\ I consider ricers to be people who buy non-performance cars and stick a ton of stuff on them to try to make them fast. if you mean by those "stuffs" to be side skirts, spoilers and carbon fiber hoods, youd be right. Ricer: (notice the fart can, not the actual performance exhaust) not a ricer: Edited September 5, 2006 by Blarney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ronburgundy__ Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 (edited) I wish my dad liked performance cars. He has a 99' bmw 540i, its fast enough, but porsches are in a whole different league. He says porsches are ridiculous Edited September 5, 2006 by ronburgundy__ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sinner101GR Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 (edited) cant blame him, performance is like none other, the suspension is one of the best in world, as a stock car even. I need an HK 416 now.... (416 posts, woot) Edited September 5, 2006 by Blarney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ronburgundy__ Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I like it alot. Some turbo porsche would just be amazing though. A 930 or something of that sort. One of my dads friends had a twin turbo porsche, that would just be amazing. Too bad they are a shame to keep up, they just cost so much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sinner101GR Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 oooohhhhh yeah, they cost a lot to maintain. Just had a flat on the track and it ended up costing a lot for some repairs. Got a denta few months back off some ignorant soccer mom...that cost 400USD....blargh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Milla Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hey Milla is that you at the wheel?

He bumped a curb while parking, and cracked the front valence. He wont have anything fixed. Its sad to see such a nice car not be treated well. Though I would really have nothing else. In my opinion its the perfect car. Luxurious and fast. Enough power to throw you back in your seat, and the 6 speed provides all the fun you could want. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stevorob Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 blarney how you gonna say you hate ricers when you have a HONDA (japanese made...japanese eat rice) and you're going to "twin turbo" the h22. So hows that not RICE??? Oh and obviously your going to change the headers and exhaust and headers if your adding a turbo. And TT? Do they even make a TT for the H22? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No. You would have to somehow engineer another intake manifold to twin turbo that engine... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sinner101GR Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 No. You would have to somehow engineer another intake manifold to twin turbo that engine... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> correct, ive got some hook ups here in town, but Im not sure what Im going to do if i get to Ohio next year...this cars got a lot of work to go...so Im not sure if Ill be able to TT the thing....we'll see.

Sinner101GR Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 we shall see, I want to hook up at the local curcuit with this thing...the TT will boost it up fairly high in horsepower and output, After checking everything out, about 900 WHP and about 700 HP when alls said and done...

jon224 Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 (edited) I don't understand the fascination with porsches, the way i see it is they are just overblown beetles with the engine in the worng place, made by possibly the lazyest designers in the world of car manufacture, usually driven by plump middleaged exceutives with a bald spot in a midlife crisis, same as most high end sports cars. Too much of a 'everyone look at me how cool am i' car for my liking . for a sports car give me a good ol' triumph tr6 not the fastest car in the world but full of character and so good looking yet understated one day....

clmwrx Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Twice the turbos, twice the lag... Most drag cars have a single large turbo... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 those Caymens are real good looking - better looking than 911's, and cheaper. one of only 3 porsches i would lay cash down for. the others being the 959 and carrera GT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sinner101GR Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 I would never buy a Cayman, reminds me too much of the Boxster, not all that good a car in my opinion...its like the C class of the Porches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
screamin_weasel Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 nah. the boxster is properly "im too poor for a real porsche". the cayman is "im not rich enough for a 911, but i still brought a mega car, that is more original than yet another 911" horses for courses i suppose. i cant think of many cars that are uglier than 80's 911's. the design of 911's is just a bit dull, they need to shake it up a bit and do something a bit different than changing the shape of he headlights slightly.
