why do I feel left out

oh yeah I dont have a car crying

I don't think they do either.
Just pretend you have a Ferrari or somthing.
Make us all cry hahah

yeah right

the car I want is sitting in my drivway collecting dust

Yeah, that must suck.
Would it make you feel better if I told you that 240s are just SOHC peices of s**t?

Well, that's true. Unless you count the 240sx's with the DOHC engine that puts out 170 horses.

Im pretty sure that the US never got the DOHC, but still 170 hp, hah

The US got the DOHC, my friend owns one. And, for when it was made, 170hp out of a NA 4-Cylinder Engine is quite good. It beats out the VTech engines that everyone loves. The Accord having 160 and the Integra having 170.

*As he comes in pushing his '70 something Corolla, he looks at everyone elses car* "Damn" he says, a grim expression on his face as he opens the door and sits inside the ancient car. The paint was fading due to weather exposure over 30 some-od years.

Oh yeaa. Keep it real.

And badcat, wtf is up with this:
... After stepping out of his car... he reaches into his car for a mysterious shiny metal and plastic thing and places it on his arm. The driver turns around and say... "IT'S TIME TO DUEL!"

Don't ever, let me see you type that again. lol

Anyway, more car talk guys? Ill just lurk.

I like underpowered cars and all, like you said 86s rock.
But it was such an inneficent engine.
The integra puts out 170 HP and it's a 1.6 litre, thats over 100hp per litre!
Where as the 240 has a 2.4 litre, with only 170 hp, do the math. Thats more weight since its a bigger engine, plus the added weight of a FR drivetrain, making it a slower car.

So, the AE85. You gotta get A-tune. I think you're going to like the car, but it'll definately make you realize how good your Spirit R is. In addition, you'll be able to run and fish to Akina.

Yeah, you have a point. But you have to look at when the car's were made. Almost a ten year difference. 1989 - 1999

This is true. I just know that there's a gang of 240s round here that think thier stock cars are hot s**t.
Pisses me off.

Yeah, the AE85 just oversteers. Which shouldn't be too much of a problem if you really hug the turns.

Yeah Rotary, the SOHC 240's think they are awesome around here. With 140hp.

Yeah, back to da game.
Is it just me, or when fully tuned, is the 85 faster than the 86?
(like top speed wise, not really cornering)

[Ziekoh]

A little oversteer isn't anything I can't handle. Give me about 3 races blaugh
