Some retarded car stuff I heard last night...

[Grendel]

A few friends of mine were sitting around drinking and got talking about cars somehow... I'll type up the ones I remember for you people to laugh at :P

1) Talking about supras and shit like that... my friend goes "Supras are badass they rev to 10k"

2) Got talking about wether my car (280zx turbo) is faster than my friends '99 Integra GSR... my other friend says "His car is badass, his vtec will kick your ass"

I tried to tell him turbos are just a bit better than vtec He wouldn't believe it...

Thats all I remember at the moment maybe I'll think of more later...

Anyone else have any funny comments you have heard people say?

Today:
"Heaps of people with [Subaru WRXs and Nissan 200 (240 in US) SXs] are swapping to [Toyota Hilux] brakes because they're designed to stop 3.5 tonnes. The bullshit flag was raised. Oh, and my lumbering dinosaur V6 family sedan will whip your [5th gen civic w/ ITR engine swap]'s ass.

[NSX-R-SSJ20K]

me and my friend went to watch some street racing once and one of the maxima's we saw was drawing our attention anyway this is a summation of what happened

"whoa you know what this is don't ya?

No WHAT?

I am not sure exactly how a nice engineering principle to expand the power curve of an engine (VTEC) is treated as though it were rocket fuel. Sad really.

This isn't necessarily about cars but I overheard the girl behind me in class today say this to one of her friends. and yes, this girl was a blonde

"Are Japanese people's eyes like that because of the atomic bomb?"

Heh, I just remembered another one...

Sitting in economics class yesterday, I was looking at some Hot Import Nights pictures, and my friend points out the blow off valve on one of the Supras...

He says "I'm going to get on of those for my truck (Chevy S-10 n/a)

I say "You need a turbo for that"

He goes "Nah, just an intercooler"

Another friend of mine was telling me how he was going to put an intercooler on his n/a 80's v6 Camaro... morons

BTW that comment by the blonde girl above was pretty funny

We all start laughing our asses off..

The biggest BS'er i know claimed to have taken his FR grampa car, some oldsmobile something, and said he put a MR ferrarri engine into it OH yeah, he said he lost his liceacne cause of his crazy driving skills. (He never got his liceance in the first place). Now he's saying he's buying a brand new Fatboy. a $20,000 bike. Oh yeah and he sold the afrementioed car for only $37,000. Uh huh. And he works at Big Y. I just bum smokes offa him, that's all HE's good for. lol stupid pathetic loser.

You should have said something like, "well, if you really had a v20, you would be making about 1000 hp easy...."

Yeah, I was in English class a bit ago reading an issue of Road and Track, and this kid started talking to me about cars. Somehow we got onto VTEC and how it is nothing near what everyone thinks it is, and hekept saying, "no no no, its better then a turbo." I pointed out that almost every car company out there has some sort of valve management out there, and I even described how it worked and what it does. Even after a good 5 minute lecture from me on this, he still said that he would rather have a VTEC engine over a turboed engine. That was strike one for him.
The next day he came into class and started atlking to me about cars again. I was friendly and just sort of agreed without listening to him too much. But then he said something that I couldn't help but to laugh at. Here are his exact words...
"I was walking to Brent's house yesterday and this red Eclipse with a black hood drove by. It looked ok, but it sounded real badass, and get this, he had that all new shifting system in it." So I said, "New shifting system? What do you mean?" And he said, "Yeah, he had the new air shifting system in it. Every time he shifted, it went PSSSHHH...." He still claims he knows ALOT about cars...

Please have him register on here, we need someone to laugh at.



On second thought, don't bring him here.

I would have to say my fave is one of my friends who lives in South Carolina, but was visiting us up in PA for a few weeks...

He's all like "yeah, so my uncle has this hooked up car for me back in SC. It's a Civic with that green body kit from 'tf&tf'..."
me: "Um, that was an Eclipse."
him: "yeah, but it's fitted on the car."
me: "No, it's really not. The chances of that are about as good as me jumping the grand canyon in my car."
him: "Well, maybe it's different. But it's got a turbo V8 in it..."
me: "No it doesn't. He'd have to completely gut the interior and find a way to bolt it into the rear, due to the size, and there is no way it's a turbo V8, period."
him: "Well, but it has NOS so it's like superfast."
me: "No it doesn't. Do you even know what you're talking about? Cause I do, and you're full of shit."

Poor kid. Can't win me over with gingerbread... You better back it up.

retarded car stuff

I've coined the term "Cartarded" to explain things/people like this. It has come in handy a lot when people have no clue what they are talking about.
