Maybe if you are strictly talking about "fast and the furious" outlaw street racing scenes. But most of us are not part of that sub culture. Automotive experts and journalists will call cars that can run 12's brutally fast. And for every day driving, and in most situations on the street...

Mmm. Such a deliciously tacticool phrase :D :thumbsup:

Clearly it's all relative. Either you are incredibly ignorant and fail to realize that your way of thinking, relative to what's "fast" in an every day street car, is in a galaxy far...far away from the norm. Or you just like playing the part of billy badass frowning upon what most enthusiasts...

Not sure what you mean? Do all the DI cars still have the same problem with deposits/power-robbing buildup, even the non-turbo ones like the new Camaro?

He's not the only one who "get's it" lol. Basic common sense for most of us. Just not the few Billy badasses of the forum who think anything below 1000hp is "slow" ;)

For me, DI is one of the main reasons I would not purchase the new Camaro (or any other DI car for that matter) Who wants to have to constantly clean out the deposits, or else lose more and more power as the miles add up.

Because he wanted linear springs instead of progressives :thumbsup: To quote him:

Aren't the coilovers still under development? Member "Mustangcollector" just tested & fully reviewed a set, and made several suggestions for things that should be changed, and I was pretty sure he was sent was a "pre-production" set, and I thought that was just like 2 weeks ago. Were changes...

Inigo Montoya? You kill this thread... Prepare to die.

Yeah I hear you man, definitely sounds like a good track wheel for the money.

Somehow missed this post. That's good to hear. Good luck.

Nice, but to be honest, that weight, although light, is not exactly special for an 18x10 flow formed wheel. Basically the same as 18x10 Forgestars or most any flow formed wheels. (I had Forgestar 18x10 F14's and they were also 22lbs...I think 21.8 to be exact) Advanti Hybris 19x9.5's are only...

I agree with that, but also feel really bad for the OP. Stealerships in general are some of the most corrupt, slimey, untrustworthy organizations in the world. It's absolutely criminal the sh*t they pull and get away with. OP - I really hope it works out for you, Man, I definitely feel your pain!

Yeah I hear you, I'm on Long Island though, and there is TONS of traffic here. But I also travel to rural areas of NJ & PA too. I think the Escort 8500 is the one I have at home, not sure. I just felt like it wasn't really doing much of anything for me & wanted it out of the way. Plus I was...

I had a nice & fairly expensive Escort detector, but stopped using it after a little while, and it's been sitting in it's fancy case for years untouched. I find the best method is simply to use my own eyes and common sense. However, I'll admit that its trickier when the sun goes down. But I...

lol @ that pic.

Like it is, eh? Yeah a $40k every-day street car with all the creature comforts that can run with or beat supercars and exotics that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars is "slow" generally speaking. A car that is FAR faster then 99.9% of the other cars on the road is "slow" generally...

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

:doh: I understand when you have 1200rwhp cars it can see that way. But don't make a general statement. Say "compared to..." then it makes at least some sense.

Yeah, I know what you mean.
