H22 is out of a prelude which is a heavier car and has a more powerful engine than say a Civic or integra... b18s out of integras. I know Honda, DSM, and Mitsubishi stuff but thats about the extent of my engine knowledge. Dont know toyota or nissan that well. and European I have no idea... lol

I know a fair amount about the Honda stuff mostly from friends having them but I am much more knowledgeable on the good ole american muscle. Grew up at the drag strip and helping my dad build/break/rebuild his motors and everything. Now i've got my own car to do that with !
I will agree with you though you definitely have to watch out for some of those little imports cause with the right amount of knowledge and money with them they can be insanely quick! |

The
Yesterday. At the fuel station airing my tires. Guy drives up, steps out of his low rider Honda, baseball hat askew with a stocking hat over that. Says, "So is that a 500?" When I say, "No", he interrupts me before I can elaborate. He says, "Ahh. A 650. Nice. Nice ride, dude".
I nod. Smile. And think about relating all this on this thread. |

I dont hate Hondas... I just refuse to be in that group of people anymore, as they are mostly silly kids. Ill take a car with AWD and cornering than a silly FWD car that is boosting so much its about to explode.

I agree completely. My brother got my whole family into subaru's as he has a wrx, I have a Saab 9-2x (subaru impreza 2.5r) and my dad has an outback limited. That plus my (go fast car) is RWD but i won't ever go away from AWD again for my DD after having this one.

You bring up a valid point. but the new ones just don't look like this:
I know that's an R34, not an R33, but they're both SAAAWEEt the new ones aren't nearly so iconic |

He said he has a family. Throw out the 370Z two doors and a two seater
if it was something like that he could get a G35 or GG37 as they have 4 door models STI is more common than an Evo thats why I guessed that. But it sounds like itll be a 4 door performance car... so WRX, STI, Evo, A4, Maybe and S4 something like that.

long and slightly related story, my best friend knows pretty much nothing about bikes. When I told him I was getting one I said I was getting a Ducati (to mess with him of course ). He wanted to know which so i showed him a picture of a red Street fighter (I knew I was going to get a red bike at this point). Of course he believed me and the day I get my Ninja he says "#$%&. I cant believe you actually got a Ducati".... He believed it. A few weeks later he asks why its says Ninja on the side if its a Street fighter. Of course I wanted to see how far I could take this so I told him the bike came with full body sliders (aka the fairings) to help in a crash. I told him they were made by Kawasaki and the product name is Ninja sliders. Of course he still believed it. About 5 months I though it was finally time to break the news and of course when I tell him its actually a 250R he thinks im lying... So to this day I apparently have a Ducati with Kawasaki frame sliders...

ON Topic: My neighbor came by while I was working on my bike and said "sweet bike man, 600?". I said na, 250. He says "really what kind?". I'm like uh ninja 250 '08. He gets this bewildered look and says "REALLY?, my wife has one of those, but it doesnt look anything like that." He opens his garage and sure enough there's a 2010 green SE in there lol. |

Ok, then I must be just as bad cause I don't have to look it up or look at your response lol. I love the exotics and love Lotus cars. I wish they didn't stop making the Esprit though. That was my favorite of their cars. Another one of theirs that I like is the Lotus Seven. Of course that one you can get as a rolling chassis or kit car now with your choice of engine.

Most of the people at work can't tell the difference between my 250 and my 650 lol
When they ask what the difference is I tell them, well this one has a red spring see? Increases horsepower by 300%

Oh there are cars that are sculpted so well that they look like they are speeding just sitting there. I think I've even seen a commercial or spoof where they used that idea to give a speeding ticket to a parked exotic lol. However, that bike does NOT look fast at all. If anything it looks more like it was wrecked, needs work, and would be lucky to start. I know that's not the case, but to me that's just how fairing'd bikes look when you strip them like that.
