    So i bought a bike...

    even if he was pushing 200 lbs, there is no way a N/A stang would hang with him, unless he was either playing with you or a REALLY bad rider. not to be mean or anything, but i would have to see it to believe it. my car ran a 13.4 with bald street tires and after riding my bike i get in my car...

    So i bought a bike...

    it should be kinda the other way around... a stang has WAY more torque than a bike, so it should jump it, then after 8000rpm(on a 600cc) the bike will fly past. i think a built FI stang is the only thing that would run with us. oh and that one guy(sorry i cant remember is name) with the...

    Still looking at stangs, need opinions, 5.0 or 4.6?

    im not a moron, im realistic. 8 grand can go alot further and make a car faster if the car and parts are cheaper. everyone knows hondas are cheaper to build, and EVERYONE carries parts for them....even pepboys... but if he is really set on buying a stang, why not use the money for a...

    Still looking at stangs, need opinions, 5.0 or 4.6?

    well my first thought is that if you havent been a big "muscle car" or V8 fan, stay that way. dont spend all your money on something you dont truly love. IMO if you have never been too fond of V8's go for a honda. i have built many hondas that can break into the 12's with under 6 grand. a...

    So i bought a bike...

    ya, i have been riding dirtbikes since i was 10 this is a bit different from dirbikes, so i am kinda unsure about some things. i only hear the noise loud between 3-5k, then it kinda goes away.

    So i bought a bike...

    for those of you with bikes, is it normal to hear kinda loud valve train noise, kinda like vlave chatter on a honda motor??? i checked all the fluid levels and it all checked out good, and the guy said he had the first service with the valve adjustment done already, and the bike only had...

    Would you buy this car...

    i agree. yur car looks great. but my 02 only has 47000 on it. i would prolly have to work hard to get $14k for mine. the dealer would only give me 7,500 for it, lol

    So i bought a bike...

    why do you say it might have been a stunt bike?? i was thinking that too, but when i saw it, body parts were stock, matched, and the guy was an amature also who claimed he never had the guts to try any of the stunts. i checked everything, seals, shocks, etc. and everything lined up and...

    So i bought a bike...

    lol, i was in the same boat for 2 years. parents said i would be on the streets if i got a bike, but i moved away for college...and guess what??? f4i's are very nice. i was stuck between those and the R6 for a long time, but i i have always been a foe to the hondas....for obvious...

    Doh..! Over revved it...

    i shift mine at around 5800 at the track, but one time i ended up in 2nd from 3rd at about 105mph, and my rear tires locked up even though i floored it (for about 1/4 of a second) it didnt rev past 6300, and no damage done. why would my tires lock up and my motor not rev very high even though...

    So i bought a bike...

    This weekend i bought a bike, a 2003 Yamaha R6. i feel kinda sad that i had to use my money for the Novi Mongoose kit in order to buy the bike, but being a college student, driving a 400hp beast to and from school wasnt practical. but no worries, i still have the stang sitting right next to my...

    Well I thought they fixed the tranny...

    wow, your lucky loosescrew79, my car did that, and the dealership said there was nothing wrong with it and that takin the motor past 4k is considered abuse:mad: the input shaft was also screwed up, i would hear it rattling around when i would turn into a parking spot or something while in...

    Engine died going down the highway, why?

    that happened to me as well, but i was slowing down from about 35, and i started to turn then it died. scared the crap outta me cuz there was another car comming and i couldnt get all the way in my lane. i fabricated that IAC restrictor plate that is often talked about here and it hasnt done...

    i had fun in my car today also. i dont drive it much due to the insane amount of cops in my town (and the fact they are now being taught about modded cars) but my tires smoked a little bit more...:D

    which forged internals?

    plus this way if something happenes to the forged block (like running too much boost :rolleyes: ) then i still have the factory block i can use. what do i have to do to fit my factory heads onto a, say, VT forged shortblock? would it be to my advantage in the long run to buy some 4v heads from...

    which forged internals?

    i am planning on getting the novi 2000 mongoose kit, and i like the idea of having forged internals over stock. my question is: should i buy rods and pistons and have them installed to my existing short block? or should i buy an already assembled short block from VT or D.S.S. or...
