Well being around these forums makes me wanna modify my car even more now, but to be honest im not really going to race much. So would you guys recommend to just do exterior mods such as wheels,kits,etc....or should i still do some engine upgrades? do you guys think its cheesy to just have your car looking good, but not have any engine modyfications?

 

i'm a show guy but feel that a car should be well rounded whether show or go. intake/exhaust at the very least.

 

Well you do have a pretty fast stock car, and you're not into racing, go show!

 

do what you like. its your car mang.

 

i mean i race when somtimes when someone pulls up but so far i have won, and im not a very good driver yet, i taught myself to drive stick 3 weeks ago.

I don't plan on going to tracks anytime soon. i will mod the engine later im just wondering wheter i should focus on exterior first?

 

mr **** ur car is amazing

 

thanks.

 

You answered your own question. Go with 'Show' mods.

And asking us what to do with YOUR car is pointless. Don't let us influence your decision. Do what YOU want.

 

show + go FTW

 

aint that the truth.

 

well for me i'd say go, but it's your car; do what you want with it.

 

Amen. LOL

 

Give it a nice stance by dropping it first.

 

Thats a question I had to ask myself.
Part of going show is having a nice thick sound during acceleration.
A car that looks great, but sounds like crap isn't going to get you nearly as many points as you would with a nice purr during acceleration.

 

 

im was just wondering if i will get asked to race alot? for those of you that went show, do you get asked to race alot and or people try and provoke you all the time?

btw i raced today on my way home from school haha from a dig eclipse spider pulled on my first but by the time i got to 3rd gear i was 3 car lengths in front haha.

 

That question never crossed my mind.

 

I would say save your money and buy a Mustang GT or a z28 Camero or a Trans Am or anything RWD and then mod that.

 

that makes no sense.

if your going to try and flame at least put some humor into it or something.

 

ha another thread thats been covered numerous times....its your car do what you want with it. Everyone has their own opinions on it. Do what you want not what other people want.

 

Put pink dots on it, w/ 22" wheels. Convert AWD (driveline from G35x), and use an RB series engine.

 

alright im diggin that look

 

Just like we're all diggin this thread.

 

It wont matter either way because once you start modding you'll end up buying both performance and show mods.

 

24" rimz 4 teh go

 

if you dont race much and dont mind the power, go show.... i tried show only, and was happy, i took out my exterior mods and did not like it, so i went show and go. Good luck!

 

Well, RB is nice, but Ive always been a fan of the roaring, grumbly great ol' American V8 in a Nissan sedan.

 

Sacrilege.

 

I'll tell you what else I'm diggin.

Go both. Can't go wrong.

 

I think I heard something like that when talking about the LS1 powered MX5...?

 

show

 

Explain to me how what I said is flaming. I have a Max too and I want RWD. What I said is the best idea so far. If you still insist on making the car fast buy a turbo kit. They about 3.5k for the Max but build your engine first.

 

2006 mustang gt, i beat it in my max by a fender length, z28 camero, i have raced an rs and he *****ed out when i shot off the line in front of him, he slowed down and said he didn't want a ticket, trans am... wtf if you wanna talk abougt fast "RWD" try 300zx or 240sx or something i mean f^@% oh and i don't have a turbo and my max is still fast... you obviously don't have a very good motor in your max if its not fast ftw

 

Z32's arent that fast unless there TT, 240sx shouldnt even be considered a fast car.
A six speed Trans Am would own your NA VQ.

 

on Flava's comment......

"240sx's are fast" LOL


Eror 404: Fast Maxima not found

Your examples are poor... you also make no mention of the year camaro. There's a big difference in HP numbers when talking about 93+ camaros vs 82-92 camaros. BTW, Z28 =/ RS. If you're talking about the 82-92 camaros, RS's came with 140hp. Z28's (5.0L) of the same generation came with 190hp. Z28's (5.7L) of the same generation came with 220hp.

 

Those I think are pretty cool, actually. Massive motors in tiny cars is always a cool thing.

Then again there are those people that like to put piston engines in RX's...every time that happens, god kills a litter of kittens.

 

wowwww....

yeeaaa booiiiii 240sx'z r like s0000 fast brooooo

 

All I'm saying is that RWD has the most potential which is why I suggested what I did.
Other than the fact that an LS1 RX7 runs something like 10s and 9s it's not that bad.

The LS1 is the best thing that happened to the RX7 and some people put it in s2ks and 240sx's.

Since when is running 9's with an LS1 in an import wrong? Who cares as long as you get there in 9 seconds?
