At least its wheel horsepower and not crank horsepowerOriginally Posted by Scouse Monkey
only 170nhp and no low end torque! what a load of junkmust be glad you got RWD with all that power -
Why do you think I'm not doing any engine mods? Eventually I'll get rid of the engine and put in a supra TT one in there. Direct bolt in
The torque can be felt starting from 4500rpm. But at that point I'm riding on the gas tank
I have always liked the old A4 design. But audis break down a lot and are expensive to repair. I would've gotten a german car as my first car, but I was too afraid of the repair bill. I could've gotten a 740iL, but besides being expensive to fix, these things are HUGE.
supra TT engine!
My car doesn't have a wing. And I don't like the stock wings either.supra TT engine!
The engine is going to be later.. much later.
BTW: How much do you guys think the repair would cost?
wing=fender
repair??? search me. best thing to do is go get a quote from a proper bodyshop. I would see if they can doa cheapo hammer out job. they should be better than your regular guy.
I don't jerk my wheel, dude...Not the FD RX-7. The boxy one (before 92 IIRC)
Well, those FWD cars are modified. My drivetrain is 100% stock. Not really a fair comparison
I never said that my car is safer in turns or make me a better driver. I said that RWD is better in turns. If you know the rigth time to jerck the wheel then good for you.
Drivetrain matters. RWD is great for summer. FWD is good for snow. AWD is great in snow.
I don't drive a Ford, by the way, unless Ford has a plant in Hiroshima that makes the Protege. But yea, so its a Ford now, apparently...Trust me, I know whats a Ford and what isn't.
If we are going to compare how fast you can take a 90 degree turn (which is an utterly stupid mesurement to judge a car by...), I can do it at about 40-45mph. My car is better than yours, nyah-nyah. *leaves 3rd grade*.

well he said his car had no wings! so either he mistook what i meant or his lexus is even more of a wreck than we thought!
Remember the 2 top pics? My mechanic charge me $1350 to bang it out. I got a quote from another guy who said $2500 for a new fender with repaint and install.
Here, wing = insanely high spoiler made out of aluminum most of the time

This is why new Ford models are based on Mazdas and Volvos
Yes, if you drive a new mazda then you drive a ford, or some part ford.
Yeh, that's because you have a FWD car
