240sx
 
Did I already mention this, I forgot, but I beat approximately a '90 240sx up this really windy hill. I could tell that he was trying because both of our cars were schreeching in the corners, and before he had passed me going about 100km/h when I was cruising at 70 like I usually do. Luckily he got a red light, so I murdered him up the hill, had to show the dude that you don't just pass me like that thinking that you're Schumacher unless of course he's got a REAL fast car, in which case I sort of turn my music up and continue cruising hehehe

Oh and on a side note, beat a brand new Kia Sportage twice in a row, and murdered this Tracker that was zooming by everybody, had to get him back in order too.... had four people in my car at the time too, and the guy was alone......

Now all I need is that one little mod such as the intake cams as Ambient suggested to me to put me over the top so that I can trash the Civics left and right (I already can beat most of the stock ones)

If you lost to the Kia or the Tracker you should be ashamed of your self. have you seen how slow they are.

What type of protege do you have and year. I guess the I.6 protege with an auto might be close to the Kia and tracker with four people in the car.

ahhh... I think he said that he DID beat them....

Yeah, I had four people in the car, and there was nobody in the Tracker or in the Kia, and I DID beat them, easily might I add.....

Kia Sportage has the exact same engine as my Mazda, 2.0 130hp, however I guess the extra weight, and maybe it was automatic......

And give me some credit for the 240sx

Holy hell, there was no one in the car? GhostRacer man, either that or you were racing a parked car...no wonder you won by so much.;)

And I said "If you lost". I know that he won.

Makaveli, as for the 240SX Good jop:D I think that you had more balls than the other driver. Getting the Pro through turns isn't hard because the hands very good. and I forgot what the hell I was going to say.:mad:

The Kia Sportage doesn't have the exact same engine as your car. It is the same displacement, at 2.0L, but it's an FE3 engine and you have an FSD engine. Very few of the parts will interchange.

really? I doin't know, I know it's a 2.0 4banger, 130hp, 132 torque which are the exact same specs for our engines too I think. And as for the 240sx it was one of those 'Who's got bigger balls' a.k.a. 'Who's the closest to flipping their cars' a.k.a. 'I won!!' byatch hehe Blue

Ambient Oct 11, 2001 08:51 AM

Yeah but the drawback of the Sportage is that it weighs 4200 lbs

Makaveli Oct 11, 2001 08:39 PM

Exactly, the guy should've known that, and wouldn't have tried to race me twice in a row to merge in front of me, why can't he take a backseat and follow me in my lane like other normal people

David Oct 11, 2001 09:36 PM

Because some people are stupid and think that thier sh-t doesn't stink. But the dude has a Kia, how cool can you be in a Kai.
answer You cann't. I've driving the Rio and the Sportage and there now great. Now that 240SX I never was a fan of that car it could have been dam good but at that time Nissan was looking to make cars that Buick would make. the 240SX could have been a grat car like the MX-5 but as we all know the 240 is no more the MX-5 is still going strong.

jking Oct 11, 2001 09:39 PM

I personally like the 300zx. The kia weighs 4200lbs? Damn thats a tank.
