I don't see an intercooler in the front mount. Unless he has like a motor swap and built it with a big shot of nos then I could see that.

I just looked at his mods and he did do an engine swap and has "turbo, supercharger, extrude-honed, nitrous, port and polish, stroke-increase". So i guess maybe he is that fast. BUT STILL FUGLY!!!
When will people learn that a huge spoiler (on a FWD!) and all the other UGLY cosmetic stuff DOES NOT make your car faster.

I think the horsepower comes from the MAX pulling it

I was wondering the same thing. maybe he has an engine in the front for the front wheels and one in the trunk for the rear ones.
but then it would weigh more then the 2,100lb he is claming.

I wonder if there's anything inside the car in the first place. All he took were exterior pics...

there are TONS of ricers around here, one kid has nasty ford festiva with "custom" painted hub caps, a huge apc banner, led squirters and an amazingly big fart can. Another one has a 90-91 celica with a nonfunctional hood scoop, huge fart can, biggest wing I've ever seen in person, painted stock hubcaps and apc seat& steering wheel covers.

I was talking to this kid yesterday and he's like "yeh dude I'm gonna get a sweetass body kit for my metro, paint it jet black, buy some rims(he ment hub caps but didn't know the difference)and add a flame steeringwheel cover".
Atleast it's something to laugh at.

It will turn your average subecono box into a fast and furious racer.

i just checked the whole website and there are NOT any Maximas on there (no Nissans at all). lets not give people a reason to call us ricey. i have seen a few that are close and you know who you are

it is the blown underwater version of a Honda hovercraft/submarine hybrid DX model...note the ventilation/ram air/snorkel vents on teh hood...


did it show a picture of the propeller out back and the bilge pump....hi-performance bilge pump no less...

I agree on that.

That civic is just, wrong, waaaayyyy to wrong!!! Is it even a civic? Looks like something that came out of the s**t hole

If he is running a 5.7L Dodge HEMI in it, I'd believe it.

^ just copy and paste the address into the reply box, it'll add the url tags automatically. I'm quite confident that he doesn't have a supercharger and a turbo, but it's been done. It's just amazingly expensive and complicated.

What a bunch of BS. If you do the physics based on the #s (weight of car, power of engine, 0-60/0-147 times) things don't come out right. Even assuming he had 530hp at all times (and all of that at the wheels), it's not enough to accelerate his 2100lb car from 60 to 147 mph in 5.6 sec...

Maybe he was using a G-Tech in his friend's car, and then forgot to clear it when he put it back in his own car...

Look at how he lists his wheels as MOMO's ... . Momo would never produce a piece of shiiznit wheel like that . What a moron .

The picture from the side of the car is almost unbearable. It looks as if the car had a birth defect and needs plastic surgery to correct.

The other day I was in town and saw a 2002 Eclipse. It was silver with Blue tint, an Exaust tip that lit up blue, and get this he had a TYPE R badge on each side, u think thats funny he had the GTR badge on the bottom of each tail light on the back lol it also had Greddy stickers on it and tis completely stock

No, no, no! The blower feeds into the turbo for added boost (a stud like him must be running at least 200 PSI). Then the NOS alternates shots between the engine and his stereo, adding 100 HP AND 500 watts...

All he has is intake, exhaust, shifter and a stupid looking body kit bolted on it.

This idiot is a complete liar.

He even has tint on the windshield! What a moron...

No prob - here it is in metric units. Tried to keep it simple.

Data
M = 2100lbs = 955 kg
V1 = 60mph = 26.8 meter/s
V2 = 147mph = 65.7 meter/s
T = 5.6s (9.6 - 4.1)

Kinetic energy required to go from 60mph to 147mph
= 1/2 M (V2^2 - V1^2)
= 1.72e6 joules
(ignores rotational energy in wheels)

Continuous power required to do so in 5.6 seconds
= 307000 Watts
= 411 hp

Now approximate air drag...

Drag = 1/2 * Rho * V^2 * A * Cd
Power = Drag*V

where
Rho = air density
V = velocity
A = vehicle frontal area
Cd = drag coefficient

Assume
Rho = 1.275 kg/m^3 = sea level value
A = 2 meters wide x 1.5 meters high (this is reasonable)
Cd = 0.35

Power needed at 60mph = 17hp = P1
Power needed at 147mph = 254hp = P2

Assumption: more of the 5.6 seconds of time will be spent at the higher speeds of the run. Therefore the actual average power needed to overcome drag over the 5.6 seconds is *greater* than the average of P1 and P2, which is 135hp.

So we need 411hp for the kinetic energy and at least 135hp for the drag, and that already puts us over...

Hey it could do 9.7 in a 1/4 mile, out the back of a miltary transport plane at 20,000 feet.

That Civic is just wrong. He's got almost 35,000 hits on his auction on Ebay now, yet he only has 2 bids .
