I agree with civicHBsi91, also nitrous is a good way to blow your motor. It may be a cheaper solution to more power but it bites you in the a** in the end. as for the level of respect I have for ppl who {spray} and don't tell anyone. I don't want ppl to know what i have under my hood before a race, i have no problem with sleeper's if they want to blow there motor with a bottle feed thats fine with me.

You don't know what you're talking about. N2o doesn't blow your motor if you take the right precautions and know what you're doing.

After owning a trans am, I consider souping up a Honda a challenge in itself.

As for whooping everybody, I know what you mean.......I hate to win all the time too.

NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Putting nitrous in your car in no way guarantees a victory. There are always much bigger fish in the sea, running everything from single/twin/quad turbo's, suprchargers, blowers, and NA. You put nitrous in your car, and I'll smoke you completely NA. So just because you have the shot you aren't guaranteed a win. Sure if you have a 50 shot you'll smoke a mostly stock 91 hb Si, but race that same car with an engine swap or a turbo on the Si engine and watch how quickly you are desecrated. Nitrous is only the cheap way to gain "small" amounts of power. Trying to go with a big shot will cost you a ton too. With forged internals and such...Just ask me...I know

I know...I was replying in response to you saying that if you DID have nitrous, it would be easy and not a challenge because you'd go around beating everyone. And I was saying that just because you had nitrous, in no way were you guaranteed a victory...Understand now??

There would still be a challenge because you'd run up against some FAST cars...Always bigger fish in the sea...ALWAYS!

As far as performance parts go........you seem pretty close to stock except for your headers.

Being that close to stock the race will still come down to who is the better driver. You can't be the best or win them all. Cause if you could then you would be on a pro tour.....and even they don't win em all.

i dont have headers or a header** and i wasent saying i would beat them all cept for cavaliers cuz they are really slow i dont care what you say

A new Cav will probably outrun you by a long shot...150hp and 15.6 second quarters...

I'm gonna hafta agree with you in the absolute strongest way there. Cavaliers (stock) are slow as flaming shit. I had one (yes, a new one) for about 4 months before I deemed it worthy of being driven off a cliff. But I sold it because I needed the money. Although the cliff thing would have been more satisfying.
Cavaliers are cheap cars. They go for something like 11K new. They go for that cheap because their made that cheap.

Just had to get my 7 cents worth in

first of I think you play way to much grand tourismo, I wanna see you smoke someone with a NOS feed completely stock it is a very large increase in power. And if you run nitrous through a motor then take it apart to see the damage the inside of the motor is completely black, Nitrous can definetly blow a motor it can and it does all the time.

First off Self knows his shit, second; when insulting someone learn to spell it right. The game is called Gran Turismo and NOS is a brand it is called nitrous, and third 25 and 50 shot of nitrous is not a lot, and won't do damage to your motor unless you are a stupid jackass that has it hooked up with a button and think it is ok to push that button any time you please and for as long as you please. It is not hard to beat faster cars with a jackass behind the wheel, I have won a lot of races that way and I have seen it all too often as well. Just adding a 25-50 shot of nitrous will not make you go around beating 80% of the cars out there.

First off...I'm a GT3 MASTER
Secondly, I WILL smoke someone with nitrous fed, when I was completely stock...I'm not even CLOSE to stock now, but even when I was, I know for a fact, I could take a 91 Si with a 50 shot...
I own a 95 Camaro now...I've owned two previously, both running nitrous. One was another 95, and I ran a 150 shot on it. Over 120 nitrous runs on that engine with absolutely NO PROBLEMS, other than 2 smoked clutches(damn you Centerforce!!:finger: ). My other Z, was a 94 6.6L, with a 250hp shot of nitrous. Over 100 N2O runs on that one, once again the only problems being a smoked clutch and a broken rear end(both of which are attributed to the amount of power being made, not the fact it was made using nitrous). The 94 was obviously a built motor, but the 95 had compltely stock internals. So don't tell me that nitrous blows motors. ONLY if you use it irresponsibly, don't install the proper safety devices, or have a horrible install. I am a HUGE proponent of nitrous, it's a GREAT mod. BUT it's not the GOD of Mods...Like I said, it takes a lot more than a small shot of nitrous to outdo someone with extensive mods. Even a 100shot on a 91 Si would have a hard time pulling a 13 second quarter, which is what my car ran stock.

And besides...You can't use "NOS" In Gran Tourismo
