Re: i think i love this GSX

The car is definately nice as hell.

BUT...

-I don't like the hood. It looks retarded. I know it probably dissipates heat a little better, but for that extra few degrees I will just keep the stock hood the way it is.

-The hp levels he states are interesting.

Quote:
360awhp or 490hp at the flywheel
Does he seriously think we will believe a 130 hp loss in drivetrain? That's nearly 25% on that car, if you believe the 490 hp claim.

-Why would you sell a car like that?

Re: i think i love this GSX

GSX's lost somewhere around 20% drivetrain loss. Power claims seem fine to me. He doesn't seem like he's bullshitting. The car is fucking stacked.

Re: i think i love this GSX

This guy is from tuners. He has had some bad issues with a shepard trans. He got it, it got messed up after a few days of driving. He had to send it back and all.. he was waiting a month for shepard to fixit, I read on tuners. I dont know if he has it in or what but he must have got to many headaches to keep it. Very nice car.

Re: i think i love this GSX

Re: i think i love this GSX

I dont think its anything special. The hood is ugly. Also, it has DSMlink but is that an AFC on the dash?

Re: i think i love this GSX

With all the mods that guy has, getting the thing dynoed makes even more sense instead of throwing out HP figures like that. The hood is a little funny though, lol. Creative nevertheless.
