in terms of the car i would work on the suspension first ... then brakes... and then the engine... b/c

weak suspension= car going out of control= crash
weak brakes= can't stop= crash

but either way... with 450hp...no matter how good your car handle... you can still crash...if the driver can't handle.

then again people will crash sooner or later in motorsports.

!Zar! · 07-27-2005, 02:52 AM

Come on what do you plan on doing with 450+ hp? Slow down and think reasonable like 250. That's enough to plant you in your seat and to beat most cars out there. Now put down the mag and get in touch with reality.

Along with that FSM, using the search button can teach you amazing things, also investing in some grammar instruction can be a big plus as well. No, you can't drive for shit, not unless you drive a shifter kart, which I highly doubt that, and if you did. A 240 most likely would not be your dream car neither.

Since you're in miami what gave you the idea a 240 would be able to handle a RX-7 and an EVO. Simply put get a civic, GS-R block, Full Race stage 3 turbo kit. smoke all those cars. then realize "damn i can't stop fast enough" stuff your car into something hard, die slowly. I'll snatch what's left of the turbo system.

Have your mangled corpse photographed and put online for us to say "pwned"

chlatboy · 07-26-2005, 10:48 PM

You said that it is a project that will take time. And yet you are still going to be 16 when you beat him huh? U gotta time machine we dont know about??

SochBAT · 07-27-2005, 12:05 AM

Are you the guy with the car that revs up to 8000k?

Dude, that'd be sweet.

LEARN YOUR CAR!!!! THEN tinker with crap.

Did you know that S14s have headlight fluid?

m0rex · 07-27-2005, 07:59 AM

Drive your car for a good 4000 miles. Then come back to zilvia.net.

the head · 07-27-2005, 08:15 AM

450 in a 240 is more than you can handle

Back in HS I had a 94 trans am it was about 3500-3800 lbs and was about 260-275 at the wheels (auto) That car was a lot for me to handle when i first started driving and it took me a year or so going to auto x to really keep constant control of the car.

I sold it and bought a 99 WS-6 trans am which has more hp in roughly the same curb weight. It was esentially the same car so adapting to it was not very difficult.

Currently my daily driver is an 04 SL55 AMG while the same curb weight it puts down 493hp and over 500ft/lbs of torque and it is beyond starteling when you hit the loud pedal if you punch it below 50 the tires break loose.

now take a car that weighs signifigantly less and throw 450 in it you will kill yourself at your age with a car like that I know because i have seen it happen over and over again. Learn your car, it takes time to do but it is worth it in the long run. After you spend a year or so working on the car and getting the feel for how it handles then you should look into performance, even at that though look at suspension and brakes first. Don't ebay your parts remember you dont want to cut corners on things that protect your ass.

ranisron · 07-27-2005, 08:23 PM

Who cares? just beacuse you are 16? you will realize how stupid you are once you are 23 and have gotten your license suspended (if you are still alive by then).

you don't need that much power to have fun. you are not showing to others how much hp you have, I assume you bought the car because you liked her.

I can feel it coming if the flames don't stop.

SochBAT · 07-27-2005, 03:03 PM

Obviously, if you drift auto x, you'd realize you DON'T NEED 450 HP!!!! Good luck winning first with that much HP in a fairly lightweight chassis buddy. Really, if you want 450hp, get something else, like a Geo Storm and do a powerplant swap. Drag is cool and all, but if you even have thoughts of drifting/auto x, as you say, you will realize that 200rwhp is good enuff.

And i'd like to see how a 16yearold handles 450hp. "Hey guys, wanna see how fast i can go in my car?" SKEET SKEET SKEET SKEET, VROOM!!!! CRASH!!!!!
"oh, brakefade."
then your smirk asian friend would say "pwned"

OH, and if you still want 450hp, in terms of power/cost ratio, domestics are better.

IROC Camaro, El Caminos, Firebird, Chargers, all that good stuff.

I'm guessing but with about 6k, you could probably built up a 450rwhp domestic, as compared to a 450hp SR/KA. In the end, you'll still blow something up.

ill admit 250 hp may not be enough but damn u speak no english

moe240sx · 07-27-2005, 08:09 PM

I dont get how he said he wants 450hp so he wont get smoked by these evos and rx7's, and he also drifts too...I am confused maybe another smart 16 year old can explain this all too me...

JDMark · 07-27-2005, 08:22 PM

hes just another dumbass highschool kid with unrealistic pipe dreams about cars. its all talk, who cares.
lmao at the word "tuner" btw

sideview_180sx · 07-27-2005, 09:02 PM

grammar bitch learn grammar!!!! you already dug a hole as an idiot who won't listen to those who have more experience then you. first things first, if you want to learn about engines, go to tech and read the fucking FAQ you TOOL. Afterwards spend the next month searching this site to learn more about what could happen to your car and how to fix it. Next search online once you have decided on your route of building your car, of what products to go with. No tein basics, nor super streets are good coilovers for your car.

broken_s13 · 07-28-2005, 04:03 AM

I love people like him. I can see it now.....One day ill be walking through a junkyard and stumble upon a 450hp 240(or in his case a SILVIA) Filled with Import Tuner mags, Boba cups and Initial D soundtracks. I dont really like flaming, but i also dont like newbies calling themself tuners and wanting to be faster than everyone on the street but dont even know how an oil filter works. OH yeah, make sure you change your headlight fluid before you do any of those late night touge runs with your 450 hp car. The last thing u want is crappy head light fluid.

infinitexsound · 07-29-2005, 10:06 PM

at 16 all i could think of was getting drunk and girls... hmmmmmm i wish i was 16 again
