OH btw...the brands were just highlighted for my sake...that list was on word and I changed brands so many times that I had a Huge jumbled list...just didnt feel like decapitalizing them...didnt think some people were pissed of by such stupid things...

AND...you know Jean Chretien...the ex priminister of canada...well this guy with the Z06 is is his grandson...his family is the 3rd richest in canada! So he has the cash...never said I had it...pfff...

Mr. Chretien said he'd promote Canada. He took millions of our dollars along with Paul Martin to buy some cheap ass golf balls thinking that we would love Canada more because of them, so I wonder why you're friend's family is the 3rd richest in Canada Tell him to give me back my money. Haha.. but this isn't a political board, I just had to get my cheap shots in

You see (or may not), every time you came up with a list, you had name products. Every single time, people have told you that you could save a lot more money by using non-name brand products that still work just as good. This is called helping. You rejected the help so you can stick with brand names. Oh, may I ask why you're choosing brand names over other products that are much cheaper that work just as well if not better?

If u have all that money and were planning to put so many mods and horses into your car why wouldn't you at least start out with a GSX. Your slicks are going to have to be something fierce and your going to have to hook up before you race him. And do u really, really want to risk ten g's on one race... I mean lets just say you can beat him If you miss a shift or blow anything (Im guessing rods) your out ten g's 10 000$ TEN THOUSAND dollars.
I think you've been playing too much need for speed.

Anyone else remember that one guy that I had an arguement with? Had a $7000 SBR order coming in and he was going to post pictures of it to prove it? Did we ever hear from him again? No. Its easy for anyone to just pick up a Import Tuner and look at someone elses mod list and say that they want that too. This isnt the first list you've put up and you didnt listen to jack shit we said then either. Seriously, go tabulate all that shit you are getting. For 550 hp its going to be a SHIT ton of money to spend, and he is also right on the fact that if you really had that kind of money, you wouldnt have a 96 GST.

I have listened to everytihng that BoarderOfSnow86, AWDDSM9, and Clipse KId 99, etc have said to me on aim....It helps if the reply to my posts are longer than a line or 2...helps to know what part the individual thinks I should replace, why, and what it would do for me....

Simply saying...change this to this cause it is better...doesnt suffice...Im not trying to be an asshole at all, but do you see what im trying to say...

I love this forum and have been a member since 2004...with my camero (which was a 2.8 until I did my mod list with you guys and built it to a 454 with TH350 tranny...(Mr. Luos, 89IROC&RS, KaotiKCamaro5 and more), my jeep cherokee sport...which i have fixed many problems with the help of GT Rider 0, g4bewatt, and many others...and now my eclipse...

I was just trying to get some input from fellow DSMers on the list that I tried to put together over the past few months. I guess I have to word my posts a lot better not to affend anyone.

Have you ever heard ofthe desmaris family (Other side of the chretien family)....they own sony music, BMG, POWER CORP (basically hydro quebec) and a lot more....that is the side of which my friend comes from...he is a great guy and all...but very lose with his money and very VERY confident with his over $80 000 car....I want to show him what a DSM can do...He laughed at me when i said id beat him with an eclipse....I used to have a GST back in the day and I loved it...so I didnt want to go with a GSX...I just bought my old car back from my friend...I loved my old GST and would die for her!

Then ask us about certain things. Don't put up a huge ass mod list and say, "What do you think?" You could get MILLIONS of replies because everyone has their own opinions. DSM's aren't like other cars, alot of the little parts you can make yourself with a little intelligence and creativity. I didn't mean for this to go into a flaming war, but you also have to understand where we come from with tons of people that just show their mod lists all the time and then leave, it gets real sickening. Alot of your questions could be easily answered by searching, or even looking at other peoples mod lists. And wording your posts so you don't look or sound like an idiot also will help too.

EDIT: And proper grammar will get you a long ways. Typing....like...this...all...the...time...gets... really...annoying....to...read...because...you...c an't...tell...where...one...sentence...ends...and. ..another....starts.

One question: Drag or course? Either way, I think you're fucked lol, unless you got AWD, but still it's a Z06.

For the brand name thing....the car might turn into a show car afterwards....so having brand names helps me to get sposors a lot easier than if I had no brand names at all...

[NateS]

Hmmm, I know how to solve this. If you really do have all this money you claim to have. Then you could send me say 100 bucks in the mail? Then I can vouch for you lol. Just an idea...

People will praise you more for doing your own thing and being creative than just buying millions of dollars in brand name parts when you could damn near make one for 1/10th of the price.

Tell that to carsponsorship.com

I told them about my origal mod list for my camero...with no name brands and they laughed....it was atleast 700hp but I got just about no sponsors...Gila films, brauplunk audio and thats all...
Then I made up a lie and reposted my application and siad I had all these name brands and I got about 13 sponsors (all full...no quasi crap)....

So what the hell is wrong with those people then?

[gthompson97]

Did you actually get anything from those sponsors? Carsponsorship.com is a joke to me, I've never seen or heard of anyone ACTUALLY getting stuff from them. Hell, I've gotten some e-mails from them because of my Eclipse, and it's no where near show car condition.

Sponsers want their name all over your car... not home depots. Personally I will only go name brand when I have to or it is the better choice.

My buddy has a 1995 mazda mx-3 with the KLZE motor...he signed up and got 5 initial sponsors...then he went to shows and got 4 more...then more.......all full except for one...he got whatever he wanted from: Fidanza, vertical doors, Flame Kitz, Street FX, Blaupukt (indash LCD free), Gila films, TsunamiRevPM, and some other ones....he went from a shit car when he bought it to a gorgeous showcar...without spending more than a few bucks on shipping from the companies....thats all...
