I'm tired of non owners saying how they will get a skyline or supra and daily drive 1000hp. Show me a skyline/supra that makes 1000hp on 91/93 octane! You tell these punks that no.. it's probably daily driving at 500whp, and they call you stupid.

It gets annoying, Espically people who say they have a "1996 Turbo 6speed". I talked to someone that claimed to have a 6 speed 1996.

So did you do a 6 speed swap? thats cool
No, my uncle bought it brand new with a 6 speed!

Thats when I stop talking to them,

Thats a whole other rant, liars, But yeah, People dont understand horsepower.

Its Okay Ric

When I was at Steele racing a few weeks ago, a guy came up looking at my car. He said he has an 88supra. When I popped my hood, he said ........
"hey, that's what I have in my car."
me........"You have what in your car?"
him......."That".........he points at my 1jz with single turbo.
me..........."You mean a 1jz"
him..........."Yeah that."
me..........."Did you put it in yourself?"
him.........."NO, it came stock like that, but I've made it alot faster."
me.........."What did you do to it?"
him..........."You know.....fast stuff."

Anyways, some people are just liars. The guy came up later and told me that he now thinks his has a 7mgte in it.

Why do you make threads about ricers and people like that?

Stop associating with these people. If you meet them, walk away.

In short, stop making stupid threads about stupid shit.

Some dick gas station attendant (oregon, and they don't trust the general public to be able to fill their own gas tanks, so we have degenerate assholes do it) come up to me and say:
"whoa how'd youcut the roof off your prelude?"
me: "its not a honda, its a toyota supra"
him: "oh wow I didn't know toyota made a supra before the newest badass ones"
me: "yea, they actually made 3 generations before that one"
him: "do you like it?"
me: "yea, its quick, handles pretty well, its a good car"
him: "meh fwd crap pisses me off. Once my tax return comes back I'm going to be getting the new skyline"
me: "you do realize that the "new" skyline won't be out for several years, and any generation of skyline you might want to get will cost you at least 40 grand used?"
him: "yea well at least i'm not driving your shitbox"
me: "you're a fucking gas station attendant. Finish up filling my gas and quit talking to customers. You're wasting my time"
him: "what ever you suck"
me: "I'm glad you're intelligent enough to come up with such a cunning response."

and he put my gascap back on, and i left. I pulled over 2 blocks later and tightened it down, and never went to that gas station again. What a fucktard

heh this on guy at work was telling me that since i am running a 3 inch exhaust i will "burn" my heads. whatever burn means. And this guy has a history of just random ass bs.
Apparentely he is the middle man for importing skylines, and he bought 4 of them and sold them to make profit.
I asked where did he get the money, he said his parents are rich and buy him what he wants.
Then he proceeded to tell me that he bought a crx after and made it into a drag car, but then his dad blew his 40,000 dollar crx at the track?!?
i asked him what blew and he said the engine blew.
this guy proceeds to make car noises and says he can make the best real car sound.
i think today i will call him on his bullshit.

I have a friend saying his friend has a 87 camaro, with 650 hp, all on a 700r4 transmission, and 10 bolt rear end.

(if you dont know, even a built ass 700r4 can barely take 550, and he said the guy rebuilt it stock, and 10 bolt isnt good for shit)

Yeah I love the dumbasses, the ex owner of my car, I went to highschool with, we were close friends once. He acted as if he knew this car in and out
after I bought it, I rebuilt the engine, did allthis shit, learned EVERYTHING I could, so far... and went back now and then to ask him simple questions... Oh I dont know or it doesnt do that, or have this and that.... I was like oh John... shook my head and walked away disappointed that at one point I looked up to his knowledge of these things.

LOL you're worse then that guy!!!!!

A 700R4 can easily take 550hp, shit.. Thats childs play. Theres MKIV's with 700R4's doing 800whp.

why the hell would an MKiV use a 700r4? they're not that great, any serious drag strip guy would go th350, or th400 if they had serious power.

stock rating for 700r4 was 280 hp. a stock th350 has seen 600ish hp.

Ninja Edit: heres an article for you: http://www.chevyhiperformance.com/techarticles/0509ch_high_performance_700_r4_automatic_build/

Cliff Notes: worn 700r4 couldnt even handle 190 hp, and they did a full build on it, and it can only handle 450 ft/lbs of torque now... and you're telling me mkiv's are using it for 800hp? lmao, even the 87+ years werent great, the most it was ever put it was a corvette where it handled about 300 hp

why wouldn't a MKIV use a 700R4? Most people love overdrive. Those not on the th400 bandwagon actually install a correct transmission for street/strip use.

I'm not going to argue on this subject. Just call TCI if you need to be schooled.

ROFL! Burntz, you seem like a cool guy, but I gotta let you in on a little secret...

CHP is notorious for not knowing the difference between a screwdriver and a ratchet ;) They are morons, pure and simple.

Go look up HPP (High Performance Pontiac) if you want to learn anything about the General's vehicles, and their limits.

The 700r4 WILL handle 650+ rwhp when properly built. The 10 bolt comes in different sizes, btw. 8.5" BOP will handle a decent beating. I think the 10 bolt you have in mind, is the 7.5/7.625" 10 bolt in the fbodies. Now they won't last on numerous hard launches, and even then, 400rwhp is about the limit on a welded tube, girdled 7.5" 10 bolt.

I just did a google search and found em, whatev. I talked to numerous transmission places around here when doing my tranny in my fbody. Most said a decent built 700r4 would hold 400hp ish, and they cant be built to handle high hp without TONS of $$$. Basically I was told if you want a strong tranny, without spending tons, get a th350, which is what I did, and it worked perfect for me.

And yes, I was talking about the 7.5 10 bolt, its garbage.

$1200 here got me a rebuild worthy of 400-450 hp. Then again their isnt alot of rich ppl here with projects like that, so rebuilds with the goal of 650 are very rare, and is why they would prolly cost tons here.

In florida, you prolly got shops allll over with the skill to do that... which means lower prices cuz of competition. Their is only 1 really really good shop around here, named "The Shop Inc" , and they're rediculously expensive because of being the only ones.
