Stupid/Funny/Random things said about the FC
I saw a thread in the first gen section similar to this one and wanted to start one in the second gen section. Share stories about the funny/stupid/random etc. things that people have said about our cars. My friends and I always have stories for eachother about the ignorant/ stupid things people say about our modified cars and just cars in general, but the stories about rotaries and rx7s are the best. SO share your stories! Ill add a few experiences I have had here but Ill add more later if I remember any or encounter more idiotic comments after today. I try not to make fun but to educate. Anyway here ya go:
kid from school "yea i think i've heard of a rx7 before. its a sports car right? what kinda engine- a v6 or a v8?" boss "wait your car is a '91! i thought it was like a 2000 or sumthin like that" girl from school "yea i know what a rotary is! you told me before- it has no pistols!" (and she wants a RX-8 for her first car.....) another kid from school "Only 1.3 liters! HAHAHAHA what a small piece of crap! Whats it got like 6hp!?" (of course he wants a mustang.....) my favorite said by many including all of my friends "Holy shit thats loud as hell!" and Im sure there will be more- everyone else add yours if u got any! |
my fav is this escort fucker was impressed by my car
so started asking questions whats it got? 4 clyinder, 6, 8, 5? 10? no, none, then i just turned around and left. it was sweet But I get holy shit, thats a loud fuckin car a lot |
the other day at a parts store they had a rotary rebuild kit under the counter It was a rubber band. i laughed like hell.
|
best one ive ever got was "wow nice porche" fucking people but it could have been b/c i have porche rims on it lol but what ever
|
Ok, I'll bite.
In my 87 n/a tearing down 322 and playing around with a A4 1.8T Quattro, just having fun. Side by side the passenger of the A4 puts the window down: "Uh, dude...there's flames coming out of your exhaust!" My response: "Yea, I know. It does that." Smiled and went on our merry ways. I'm sure there were other things. The obvious piston comments and etc. |
^^i get that one alot too
|
i had a guy in a f-350 chase me down to tell me my car was on fire one time. i get fireballs on every shift and every time i let off and they are pretty big.
one kid told me that my car didnt sound right and i should pop the hood and see if the apex is still working cause they break alot.. |
one guy once asked me what year my Supra(FC) was....and he was driving an mkIII
|
Hahahahaha I hope this thread grows some more.......good stuff- very entertaining
|
emission morons seem to expect it to be front-wheel drive
watching all the techs in the place swarm over the engine bay is helarious |
"you must save alot of gas with a 1.3L" enough said lmaoo
|
anyone else get "nice probe"
also i get "you must save alot of gas with that thing" too |
I get is that a probe? Or nice daytona, wtf lol, also, 80% of kids by me ask if my 240 is turbo'd, love that.
|
the whole fwd at the emissions station is scary, have had it happen a few times, the last time the guy said that he knew it was and was only testing me. then he said he like how my v-6 sounded. fucking idiot.
|
"Wow, is that a Probe?"
"No, Mazda RX-7." "Oh." |
i get what a piece of shit alot.
|
o look at that fancy ricer, i hate that one
|
"im suprised the 4cyl kept up with my sentra"
i just smiled and walked all over him. |
When I started it once, someone said "That doesn't sound right, might want to get that looked at"
"Holy S***" and "WTF was that" are also common when I'm using the 2-step for fun (a.k.a. "backfire button") One I'm sick of hearing is "Dude your car blew up, you can't say anything" (my car caught on fire last year) to which I reply "Yeah, I fixed it myself too, oh, then I built, installed, and tuned a standalone myself. What have you done again?" |
My buddy's Son said to me.."either LET THOSE BEES OUT OF THE CAN,or get a GOOD exhaust!"..LOL!..now I got a Racing BEAT exhaust on..he says"I can hear ya before you even get here!"
|
One of my friends always asks me to mow his lawn for him.
I also get the "is that a 4-cyl" etc questions sometimes too. And "don't those break a whole lot?" I'm disappointed, though, cause no one's commented on me premixing. |
Background info: Saw a RX7 FB in a shop went to ask who the owner was since it looked like a nice FB (only saw the back side), i went into the garage and saw the mechanic/owner and this is the conversation roughly
Me: Heya, this your RX7 Him: Yeah its mine, got rid of the baloney slicer tho Me: Baloney slicer? Him: Yeah, gotta get a real engine, not some baloney slicer crap Me: /rollseyes/ and walked away |
wow starscream, i dont know if i could not hit em with that comment. i get "thats loud" "WTF, 1.3 liter and you killed my (89) supra?" or "so you gotta v-6/8 right?" OR from the ladies "i dont know what a rotary is, but it sounds hot" <=== i was like !0_0!
peace |
I got a lot of people that want me to explain it. I have a rotor decal on my back window, so I just point to it and say "it has those instead of pistons. They go around in circles around the crankshaft."
