fixed em,

Your battery is small so you can easily make it a cold air intake

Whats up with the adapters and pipe for the intake? Do you have a closer pic?

It's cool but you should hide the lights better... if you see the lights it loses the effect... maybe a side skirt or something.

Spoolin'12
09-06-2004, 01:41 AM
the neons actually dont' show it's just the angle of the cam because some pics r taken wid a tripod 5 inches from the ground but if ur standing up u can't c my lights. as for the piping i used aluminum elbow pipe and wrapped it in 2 rolls of vinyl tape for better heat recuction, i took off my custom heat shield for this pic

it's an awesome car, except the neons. i like the lip, is that from a rex or a teg?

edit: also take some pics in the day time. post the biggers pics not the thumbnail from your car domain.
1. go to your site.
2. click on the pic you want to post so that it becomes bigger.
3. right click, select properties, copy it.
4. post it here.

Hey if you don't like his car then don't look! So far in this thread all you have to say is negative things. :thumbdown

...lets not be too rough on each other. Whatever you do to your car is your own thing. Other people will love the mods, but there are others that hate it too. Just live with it and get on with your life. It's a waste of time to get worked up about something so small.

i'm just not a huge fan of LED's and it looks like maybe you should angle them a bit more to get rid of the led's looking seperated on the ground, if you angle them slightly you can make it flow better like an actual neon.

*vroom psshh vroom* wtf was that?! oh, it was just the sound someone coming and going in 25 posts in an imaginary mazda, lol. Not my style, but whatever floats your boat. The lip was a good touch, and just about the only thing other hten the intake that I liked, but it's not my car.... and it's not your either, so it doesn't really matter. lol. Welcome to 3geez.

ps: "Arguing on the internet is like competing in the special olympics, even if you win, you're still retarded"; it's not worth it to fight on a forum, especially if you have fewer than 30 posts, and are arguing with long time members.

who said i was arguing. i didn't know he was being sarcastic, i don't know the guy, i started out wid a $300 mazda 323 sold it bought a S12 wid a CA18ET not CA18DET cuz the only car that came wid CA18DET is the S13. mine was single overhead cam. sold it got a free accord from shit i turned it into a half decent car and got rid of it. now i'm lookin for a mx-6 turbo. and if the car wasn't mine how come those 25 posts r mostly questions about sumshit i needed to know to install something? i've been through 3 forums and this is the most immature forum i've ever joined and i'm pretty young my self

well i finally got a MX-6 GT which is pretty damn rare. i sold my accord last oct. bussed and walked till dec.24th when i purchased the car. went to the philippines for a nice vacation and got back mid january. so far i got 2.25" cat-back. 2.5" inlet/outlet N1 style muff. i also got a Ractive cone filter. i got 17" konig temperR's which i will be putting on this friday. this car is a hell of a sleeper. @ the 1/8th drag races i went to, i beat a TypeR, IS300, and a RX-7 Turbo II. that's @ 7 psi with a minor exhaust leak before the turbo and shot engine mounts. my chip should be in this friday and i will be boosting 17 PSI @ da track.

raced 2 cars in a row today.

1st car was a rollign start against a passat 1.8t AWD. this thing pulled on me in 2nd gear and i was goona give up but i said fuck it since it wasn't even a car lenght. i pushed my 2nd gear and kissed the redline @ 6g's and got my nose to his passenger side mirror. shifted to third and his car was pulling hard but it wasn't enough. i didn't even get a car lentgh on him.

well i noticed that we were being tailed by a CRX wwhich kept up pretty good and managed to pass the passat to catch me @ the next light. he asks"hey buddy wut u got under that thing?" i told him my car was stock except for intake and exhaust. he asked me if i wanted to go and of course i said yes because before i had to sadly let go of my silvia, i got my ass handed to me by a CRX. so light turns green and we go. i reacted faster but he still had me off the line cuz he got grip 1st. he takes off on me in 1st and i had to catch up. i got to his rear fenderwell adn shifted to 2nd and no1 managed to pull away untill i hit my 3rd gear and i kept pulling but we were fast approachng a red light. neither1 of us let go and i beat him by 2 feet. his nose on my door.

while we were stopped he told me he's got a GSR motor and his car was gutted!!!!. he then asked me again about what i really had under the hood. i told him again it's stock but it's 2.2L turbo.

R/t .788

my rims slowed me down but o well. i left everything in except for the spare tire. my heart was pounding out of my chest and i froze when the light turned green. it is completely diff. than a traffic light. i know it's gay to brag about but i've done a hell of alot better street racing. when i go back i'll be boosting 16 psi with a chip and hopefulyl get rid of my clogged cat.

the motor will handle 22 psi race mapsbut our turbo's are made for lawn mowers. it loses efficiency after 14 psi but 16 for race maps doing 1 run every 30 mins it'll pull.

on a side note, i was beating mildly modified TypeRs a stock RX-7 turbo II and a IS300 @ the boundary bay drags which was a "replica" of street racing. with my stock rims and sticky snow tires. i had 2 loses and 1 of them was against a turbo typeR by 3 meters or a bit less. my rims now are 23 lbs.+ powdercoat+tire+air. so do the math.
