    i never looked down on jap cars. i used to own a integra and i whooped on a stock wrx for about 2 long blocks. then after third i hear his turbo spool up and he passed me. i took him off the line too.

    one time i raced a turbo maxima and he was only like half a car ahead of me cause i fucked up on my launch.

    my friend had a ls/vtec turbo integra and it ran best low 11's in the quarter mile

    yeh its great you can get that kind of power from 4 pots but the problem is you sacrifice reliability and drivability

    if that honda closed his windows he would prob gained a few 1/10s of a second :p

    first and foremost... i don't care what kind of car, but if u put practically 400hp in a 2000lb car... ur gonna beat most cars... that's no surprise... if u can strip a Geo down and stick a fat turbo on there and make it run at 400hp... it'd kill all cars on the face of this planet...

    secondly the Lambo driver sucks ass... i understand him getting beat while rolling on the highway... but he was completely dusted from a dig? bullshit...

    finally ah_wong, if u guys started out from a dig, it's rly no surpise... between the shot tranny and the rex's awd, u should be able to launch quicker...

    and this is why dragging is pretty damn stupid... cuz its straight forward... strip ur car down to bare bones, stick fat sticky tires in the rear and small nublets in the front, and slap as much hp in the engine as possible... doesn't matter if u blow something... u only run 1/4 a mile... neone that's even remotely proud of drag times is an F&F newb...

    if u put that same crx on a road course with that lambo, the civic would be toast...

    Any car that are customized are decreasing their reliability and increase fuel economy. But putting in aftermarket parts can actually increases its drivability in most cases. It really depends how u work ur car. These videos r just the beginning. They're plenty of videos showing Mid west's pure engine Eks taking out 400whp supras, piece of shit Trans Am, 240s.....etc.

    I can so imagine:

    -Clarkson in the ZR1
    -May in the CTS
    -Hammond in the Challenger.

    I defintely cannot wait till its release. I heard that it's coming out in 2010. But who knos? The old ones kickass. Many people had fun driving it...or should i say.....drifting it.

    Anyways, Nissan fans, u gotta check that out in the nissan forums or any other site.
