You know, it really sucks... Here I am, taking the 3duece3 out for a drive down to the mall to check out TVs for my parents xmas present (Hope they don't secretly read these boards! hehehe)...

Anyways, I'm driving back to my apt. on the highway. Speed limit: 65, I'm doing... 65... In no hurry, just listening to the new System of a down cd... This kid in a '97ish GTI (non-VR6) pulls up beside me. The car is a nice blue color, it's lowered, has an exhaust, but it's all really cleanly done, me likey. Anyway, I'm checking out the car, and the guy looks over at me. I give him the thumbs up and smile because I like his ride, trying to be nice

Now I know my 323 isn't much to look at, especially right now, but this kid just laughs at me, and gives me the thumbs down. WTF? I'm probably one of the easiest guys to get along with, especially between car people. So he speeds up, cuts me off, and rides his brakes.

I'm still doing 65, trying not to get too pissed off because I'm a serious road rager sometimes. I wasn't going to try and pass him because then he figured I'd want to race and he'd then hand me my *** on a nice plate.

I just don't get it. Why do people have to be dicks and get offended about someone giving them the thumbs up? Boy I tell ya if I had my precious KLZE I would have to make an exception to exceed the speed limit and teach that **** a thing or about R E S P E C T!

Sorry, this is a stupid post.

I hate ****** like that, too. By the way...what exactly is the KLZE engine?

It's the j-spec (japanese engine used in the mx-6) version of the kl-03 which was in the US versions of the MX-6 as well as the Ford probe GT.

It's 2.5l V6 egine with roughly 200hp and 190ft/lbs. A-spec in canada does swaps into 323s and they've hit high 13s with the KL-ZE and practically nothing else. It's an awesome alternative to turboing my car, and I'm hoping to get enough cash maybe by this summer (but highly doubtful) to get it done.

I feel you. I can't wait to get mines.

PPl can be such *****. I hate cocky ppl with their head stuck far up their ***. It would have been great if you had the KL-ZE and seen the look on his face after whipping his behind. But right now all we can do is day-dream.

Those are great engines. PM me if you want one.

I've gotten my fair share of compliments but then again I've gotten a lot of sneers from the Honda crowd. I guess my car sucks because it doesn't have Type-R and an aluminum wing stamped all over it.

If somone were to give me a thumbs up, no matter what car they have, I'd certainly say thank you. This just shows how many people today are arrogant ********...bah.

I've only driven my car about 10,000miles in the three years that I've had it. lol.

A KLZE engine swap would be nice. I'm looking for $$$ at the time though. (aren't we all)
