    a foreign car just has that unique sound distinguishable from every other car out there. And that Porsche kicks some ass......

    462 hp (stock)
    1.02 g's on the skid pad (better then the Z06)
    0-60 in 3.6 secs (road and track)
    1/4 mile in 11.9 secs

    Now thats a monster machine.

    qutoed from Road and Tack "To put the GT2 into perspective, the only cars in our Road Test Summary that can accelerate faster are million-dollar machines such as the McLaren F1, and two purpose-built race cars: the Mercedes-Benz CLK-GTR and Le Mans-winning Porsche 911 GT1. Even the $275,000-plus Lamborghini Diablo 6.0 and the $480,000-plus Ferrari F50 would have trouble keeping up. "

    If I had my druthers I would have to go with a 2002 BMW M3

    Not too small, luxurious, and performance stats that are unreal for a car this size, great technology, and that super-tight german handling and engineering and all for under $60k.

    Perfect.

    Nice Shot! I have a 99 Civic Si Ive put a bit of work into. Not too much, just an exhaust rims and tires.

    In your opinion, what would be the next mod I could make that would get me the best performance upgrade for no more than $200 installed (I know - cheap, but Im savin for my GEAR LOL!).

    ahhhhh civics....

    not knockin em...but everyone has em around here...and there all hooked up...
    civics are easily hooked up for very little money engine wise...
    you want performance over looks right?
    try an intake? that will make it sounds very nice at around 4-6000 rmps...especially when the vtec kicks in and give it a little more kick..not much mot a little....and thats if not less than 200 not alot more than that.

    thats my sugestion if your gonna go for around 200$....
    you could go with headers, cams.....chip and sstuff...but its gonna run you a little biut more,....get this intake, its a nice aditition to a vtec with an exhaust.

    hey GEO...i have an M3....dont go with a supercharger...fuck that....go with a turbo.
    i know korman puts out a nice kit..itll boots you up to around 240hp with 257lbs of tourque...
    youll be pushing a 1/4 mile at high 14's maybe..

    now that wont exactly get you up to par with an m2...seeing the e36 comes stock with 260 hp and 265 lbs of tourque.
    runnin a 1/4 mile at 14.2

    you may wanna add along with the turbo, i dunno if you have any of this, but..headers...intake exhaust...cams...chip???
    and if you wanna spend some real money, engine boaring, porting and polishing....
    just some tips...then maybe youll beat me!!!
    hahahahaha

    My pops and his friend race a 69 camaro on the track. They did have a 454 bored out running low 9's , the just took all their winnings money and put a 502 in it. Its a fucking beast now. They're still working with the new engine and they hope to be gettin at least mid to low 8's on the first run. Of course its not street legal but damn would that be bad ass on a weekend huh
