^they work full time jobs and only have cars to show for it, they sell drugs and put the money into their cars, etc etc....
I don't even wanna know how much money those guys put into their cars, cuz i think the takata harnesses in that blue civic are like a grand or so brand new

exactly. usually it's working mad hours. for some people it's a hobby they're religious about, not a past time like most of us. it's too bad a lot of them endup smashing the car or losing their license doing something retarded...then the car gets sold for half it's worth to pay for court fees.

money. if i had a good amount of it, my car would already be slammed, swapped, and a host of other mods. the lack of money to spend on my car is keeping that from happening.

Me too but damn.. As soon as I get a good job and start racking up the money, I'm getting something else. a real sports car, not a pretend sports car. A 350Z or something.

True, I do love sleepers. But there isn't much I can do with a 3.0 that can smoke the shit out of a sports car.

If I hadn't bought a house, my car would be slammed, swapped, lipped, and painted, to say the least

I work crazy hours and have a good job, used to spend all my money on parts for the car, now I'm scraping by to pay my mortgage, utilities and medical bills

An IS300 is gonna be my next car. I've seen a few for sale around here with low miles for around 10-11k. I'd keep the CL as a DD and turn the Lexus into a project car.

the G35 would definitly be my second choice. is300 being my third.

God I hate the 370Zs... I mean, look at it! It looks like a squinting mexican! Was the body style that bad and hated on by people that Nissan had to say, "Hey! We need to squish it up some, add .2 liters, and change the name!" Ughh! It's got :ghey: all over it!!

I had HIGH hopes of exterior design for the new Z (the 350Z was personaly one of my favorate cars) and they just screwed it up..

you're a dumb ass.
nissan improved significantly on the 350z with a 370z in areas that matter more than head lights. It's a better drivers car, with more power, less curb weight, better handling and a new transmission. the 350z was a bastard child IMO, for way too long, but people kept buying them. finally nissan came to their senses.

^^looks a little bit nicer but still, looks too squished up to me. Dicorp is right though. They did significantly improve alot of performance and interior design. I was just hoping the new Z was going to look, crazy hot. Least it has a spoiler now.

I've always loved the look of the G more, but after seeing the maxima, what did you expect the 370 to look like? At least it's a beast, who cares about the headlights, some blackhousing would make them look sick

so last night me and my 2 friends finally finished our 2 week project.

96 Integra LS
-mildly built LS with B20 head w/ LS cams (blew the head and block from pre-detonation, had a B20 head lying around)
-Turbonetics T3/T4 turbo with Tial wastegate (a conservative 5lbs boost)
-OBD-1 conversion
-non-abs conversion, which sucked!
-mild wire tuck

im exhausted.

honestly, i didnt even know the integra was upgraded between 94-2001. i guess im a dumbass

ITRs are the shit though.
My friend owns an DC2 with a ITR swap, fully built head, hondata etc. my car feels like a f22 shitbox afterwards.

g37 = :theghey:

it's got nothing on the 335i TT. if thats what you're looking for...luxury performance.

otherwise the 370z rules it's class. the s2000 is completely overpowered now
