First off...PrimeGT and civic and everyone else, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Drop it ALL. If you guys want to fight and argue and be idiots do it on your time, get each others AIM s/ns or something

But ENOUGH on this board. Next...

Besides, about the time the WRX was catching up they would have to deal w/ a 50 shot!! Yes ill use the shot if i see necessary, but havnt yet(i just bought it). Besides fellas my cars going in tomorrow for a 8psi boost at itsturbo! Soon i will be the so called "fastest new edge Cougar in my part of the country"!!:silly2: :silly2: :silly2:

EXPLAIN YOURSELF...A 4.6 0-60?? And you said it runs a 5.0 0-60 stock? How is it you can have a 0-60 more than a second quicker than a stock Z28(5.7) which runs a high 13/low 14 quarter?? I'm going to need you to explain that please...

Oh... Before you go off and start calling people stupid, or that their particular car is ugly. You might want to do some spell check and definately some grammar check. Cause all we're doing here is laughing at your well written Engrish home slice.

And just because you knew somebody who had a car similar to civicHB91's that had some problems, doesn't mead diddly squat. Every manufacture has cars that come from the factory that are lemons... Big deal, Lets move on.

And for the record, Ford Probes of any trim level are nice... but they definately are not all that and a bag of chips... Fo-sheezy. So why don't you just cool it and respect what other people have to say?

Do what?? Where do you live in Ohio...Columbus?

PrimeTimeGt · 03-10-2003, 03:00 PM

Like Redneck said, the pic definitely isn't flipped. So you either dropped serious cash into the car to get it to be right-hand drive or...

Here it is flipped to the "right way" if we use your logic...

PrimeTimeGt · 03-10-2003, 03:06 PM

Steerin wheels on the left side..not right????

PrimeTimeGt · 03-10-2003, 03:08 PM

Looks like it though doesnt it..

No no no, sorry i meant "normal" as in that i could run that just about any day(w/ the correct staging done to my tires). I didnt mean stock, they run near 7.5 sec stock (hehehe)! Ive also dropped 218lbs from my car to help w/ these #'s!!

Now im not being a smart ass but just because the Stang can run 14's doesnt mean its going to have a incredable 0-60 time. You cant base a car thats running 14's is going to have a good takeoff (or 60ft time). This eaven falls into the same bracket as the top speed at the 1/4 mile. Some cars will show a low top speed but still pull really good 1/4 mile time.

Z28 is a Camaro

But anyways...So you run a 4.6 0-60 time...What is your quarter?? I thought you said in the 14s? The Z28 runs a 5.7 0-06 and can run a quarter in the 13s. So how do you have a second quicker 0-60, and a slower quarter mile? Missing some gears or something? I'm highly confused

The steering wheel is on the RIGHT in the original pic you posted. When someone asked you about it, you said that the pic was flipped. In the picture I posted, I flipped it using Photoshop. BUT, the pic I posted is obviously BACKWARDS as the license plates aren't correct.

Oh, and you can use the "edit" function on the bottom right side of your posts to change and add information so you don't have to make an entirely new post each time

CougarSVT · 03-10-2003, 03:16 PM

You just answerd your own question!! Its all in gearing!! The Cougar is NOT geared very well at all(damn it).

PrimeTimeGt · 03-10-2003, 03:17 PM

No its on the right side. Believe me i know

So what mods have you done to this car again? That's not the fault of the gears, you must have changed them, as the stock 0-60 is closer to 7 seconds...What gear ratio are you using to outrun a Corvette 0-60???

CougarSVT · 03-10-2003, 03:23 PM

Ok we want more pics!!!
