Steamed!!

[PaulMP3]

maybe the gti wasnt at stock boost level

 

[ghettlo]

the new gti is the same 170hp but the 20th anniversay is 180 and that s*** is HOTTT... but way overpriced.

Thats pretty funny because both cars come with the same engine, same turbo, same engine management. Only thing the 20th has is a 6 speed and some cosmetic stuff. The normal 180 hp gti is faster in the quarter then the 20th, do some research all 1.8t vw's from 2002 up came with 180 hp.

Does anybody know how to get rid of the speed limiter!?
so maybe i can go faster that 135

its called a casket.

 

[Matthew]

i thought with the flash people could beat 350zs and RX8s? you must feel like a real tool not being able to beat a GTI

 

[KpaBap]

I beat a 20th Anniversary in my Cadillac.

MS Prote-what?

 

[servoeyes]

There is no speed limiter.

oh yes there is...I found it. I won't ever do that again! But the car could still have gone faster than it was...I'm pretty sure of that.

 

[enry]

This ES protege at one point was keeping up with me on the highway at WOT.. this could mean many things.
a-my msp is really slow
b-his car was modified
c-i can't drive for s***

That being said you shouldn't freak out right away.

 

[MoJoeTCM]

ok since i don't have a rwd i can't drift? I see i see......Well i can do some pretty ass e-braking then...i wish i could record that and post it, i can be a professional Last night some guy driving his dads corvette tried to copy my ass pulling out of a store parking lot, it looked pretty clean at first but all the sudden his right rear rim was cracked lol, dumb ass ran into a curb going at about 40 mph lmao! It feels more safe trying to drift with a fwd anyway.....

As we say in Auto-X:

Oversteer scares the passangers, Understeer scares the driver.

It's not simple to get our cars to oversteer, but it can be done...

 

[MoJoeTCM]

40-50 mph into a right angle turn can achieve this Start the turn and about 2 seconds into it pull up the e-brake....floor it.....push down and ride it out.... it is great!

There is no speed limiter.

Uhmmmm,.....no.

Maybe an RX8, they are slow anyway. But a 350Z,....no,....you wish. Unless you are talking about the slow auto with the smaller motor. If so, that's nothing to brag about.

 

[Matthew]

im telling you there has been threads on beating both the 350 and the 8 by msp owners after the flash

 

[Flat Black]

Well, the RX-8 runs around a 14.5 in the 1/4 and the S2000 runs around a 14.5 in the 1/4. Does that make the S2000 slow also?

No, it just makes it obvious that you don't know what you are talking about. The S2000 runs the 1/4 mile in 13.9 seconds. It's 0-60 is 5.6 seconds. I don't know the RX8's 1/4 mile time, therefore I wouldn't comment on it. But I do know the RX8 is slow.

Okay, the 350z runs around 14.0 and now you're gonna tell me that an s2000 runs a 13.9? How old are you? You must be getting your facts from the back of a hotwheels box.

Well, here is Hondas corporate website quoting a 6.0, 0-60 also, you're not very accurate are you?

[big_ben]

Yes, the S2000 is capable of 13.9sec 1/4 mile. Bone stock. Just go to www.s2ki.com and search for 1/4 mile time. I'm sure the numbers that honda gives aren't done with a vtec clutch dump(6000rpm). That's the only way to get the 13.9sec 1/4 and the 5.6sec 0-60.

Why don't you do some research before you spout off crap that you know nothing about.

 

[big_ben]

I'll help you out since you are obviously an idiot. You may not know how to search.

Yes, I'm sure your honda forum is totally in a controlled environment away from people who are un-biased about the car. Maybe you should do alittle work on finding out what the words reasearch and fact mean. VTEC clucth dump,lol. Do you get 95% disability from the government for your mental retardation?
