  1. that is pretty amazing that a V10 screams to 9K rpm in a street car. I have to agree with joe though, 300K seems like a bit much. I mean, i understand it has alot of cool and expensive (im sure) features and such, but when i can get a ZR1 for 120K ish out the door with 640 hp and is a beast on the track, personal opinion of course, but ill save that other 180K.
  2. in the snow? not so good, but its sitting in the garage doing just fine, thanks for asking.
  3. oh my bad for getting one letter wrong. Although ya know, maybe if you tell everyone you have a volkswagon instead, they wont think you own such a piece of crap
  4. says the guy driving a volkswagon....
  5. theres also a marathon a believe on 37 that sells it to.
  6. not exaclty a beater but... 2000 bonneville http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj294/pontiacfreak142/car3-1.jpg
  7. yea i knew it was used in trucks, but some one told me they were using a variant of it in cars.
  8. to awnser your questions, i cant imagine they are to bad in the snow, or at least it cant be worse than firebird was and it didnt do to bad with with a good set of tires. I believe the transmission is a 4L80E. those are just a stronger version of the fbodies 4L60 unit, which can take alot of abuse.
  9. just get the LS2 car and there should be no reason to be scared of a bolt on LS1 car lol

    honestly, i dont know whos worse, him or his friend though. His friend made a horrid intro thread, then posted pics of mrjsplats car and had been told many times to retry, but never does...
  11. In stock trim they are pretty impressive for an n/a 4 banger. Although i wouldnt call them king. I know shortly after the chevy ecotec came out, chevy kept modding one until it blew. If i remember right it was making somewhere north of 600 with stock internals.
  12. like wagner said, the hp you make, the better it will workand if you dont make enough, depending on how far forward you put it, it can hurt performance.
  13. as much as i hate to say it, your probably right. Although i hope not seeing as i have an interview for a second job this weekend and all of that extra money will going towards the motor
  14. hey , if you feel like drivin out to the east side, bring it on!
  15. i dont know much about the V6's in those years other than they werent great on gas and had a measly 140 hp or something like that. I wanted one to until my dad found my firebird. has a bulletproof 3.8 with 205 hp and 230 tq. not to mention mine averaged about 24 mpg with mixed city and highway (more city than anything), and 33 on road trip back when it was stock lol. and the car your talking about may have some parts from a company called super six motorsports
  16. if your getting in on this, dig so ill actually have a chance lol
  17. oh and while im thinking about it, you and me as soon as we get a decent day. I want to try the TA and another round or 2 against the gtp while i still have the 3.8 in mine.
  18. bahahahahahaha, thanks for the laugh i needed that. I sure hope my car doesnt need that much help to look fast though.
  19. yup. Good, maybe it will make my car look fast lmao.
  20. this, unless your getting a new one with the 3.6.
  21. as soon as this 383 is done, i want a piece of your bike.
  22. ill take you on with my also "stock" V6 firebird
  23. shit, ill take you up on this race, and take your money while im at it
  24. seeing as i know jack shit about honda's, ? For you. How reliably could a 3-5k civic run 10's? Im asking because im sure a few of those guys in that video had 10k or so invested, and according superstang, they were still blowing up left and right.
  25. welcome, good intro. That supra should be alot of fun.
