Anyone that has visited the marketplace forum by now knows that OpenLoop is selling its accord coupe which is one the finest examples of 3geez performance. However if any of you had the pleasure of buying this car what would you do with it? Leave it alone and enjoy as it is? Add a turbo perhaps? Nitrous? or just a new set of wheels? Heres what i would do (no offense to OpenLoop) i would give it a different paintjob. Ive owned white cars before and they are a bitch to clean. Other than that i would lighten the car up a bit slap on some slicks and hopefully run mid to low 14s in the 1/4. What would you guys do?

well it was already running 14s 1/4 mile, wasnt it?? i would turbo it, easily get it into the 12s ;)

but i think its dumb to get a car that already has performace parts, since you cant mod it, and the best part of modding cars is you actually doing the work, imo.

Compression is too high for a turbo unless you plan on running like 2 lbs of boost.

^ Word. It's a N/A built car, you'll have to replace a few things if you want to boost it.

:wtf:
You`re entitled to your opinion so is everyone else, the majority thinks its a nice car some don`t (like yourself). Your car isn`t that special to some people and to others it is including yourself get my drift?

And you telling people to get off their lazy asses and build something theirselves is just plain ignorant, stupid and irresponsible, I guess you are gonna go to every board or site that has a built or modded vechile for sale and tell them to get off their lazy asses and build something themselves? good luck with that, there are a whole shitload of people wanting to buy built vechiles.

Reason people buy those types of vechiles is cost they can`t afford to put that kind of time, work, and money into something like that. Thats why they buy a vechile already modded.

On the other hand people buy what the fuck they want, and you stop hypocriting you know you want it just as bad as everyone else that wants to buy it. Let people buy what they want and stop bitching like a dog in heat.


DUH!

soo true!!! lots of people on here can easily do what he has, i think the only reason why everyone wants his car and they think its so "badass", not i dont think it is cause i do, only cause they have actually dynoed it and showed some pretty goo numbers. im hoping to see something a little higher than that, within a moth or two ;)

only one bitching here is you. I like the car, I think it's great, but there's nothing so special about it that you couldnt easily build something faster yourself. Afterall there's only 1 of this car for sale...
And I dont believe I said anything about it being cheaper

You didn`t say anything about it being cheaper, I did... Learn to read, I said buying a modded/built car is cheaper for some people, You obviously have a problem and worried that someone will buy the car. Live And Let Die. People do the smart thing when they don`t have a whole lot of money to mod a car, Buy one thats already modded or built then add to it or don`t. Obviously You Don`t Get That.
:rly: :nuts: :slap: :werd: :blah:
You dont want me to bitch, I`ll be all over you like flys on a pile of shit. LOL
Then I`ll get banned from this site :bandance: (not good).

Calm down dude , theres no reason to start making threats that you cant back up, dont to take it to a point to where your going to banned from the site. We're all here because we share the same interest in something. Not so we can have indifferences, disagreements, and petty lil arguments like the one thats going on right now. Everyone is going to have different ideas on what they want to do depending on certain factors so dont shun them for their opinoin or because they didnt read a reply correct.

I`m not threating anyone, I told him If I was bitching I`ll be all over like flys on a pile of shit. what I meant by that is that I can hold my own with actions and words.

yeah matt's right. you dont have to have deeep pockets to mod a car. so far all ive spent on my car is about $600 including wheels. and im prolly gonna see more horsies than him in just about $200 more ;) that includes aftermarket intake manifold, huge tb, test pipe, and cam. you just have to be patient and look for good deals. oh and i just barely started working about two months ago. ive also slowly built my car without a job :rockon:
