I made a honda kid feel bad the other day while at the pump.
He goes in to prepay and i pull up to the other side of the same pump. I just swipe my card and start filling. I noticed a slid on fart muffler and maybe lowering springs, it was a LS model Integra.
Teg: Nice Vert.
Me: Thanks
Teg: Ive always wanted one of those but i settled for this. (pointing with his shoe while looking down in disappointment.)
Me: You can't go wrong with a Acura or Honda, you just have to get over that everyone has one.
Teg: True... Are the hard to find?
Me: Verts?
Teg: no just that body style
Me: Look in craigslist and there is another vert that needs some help about 5miles north.
I think i converted the kid but made him feel like an basic ricer kid for owning a honda.

Friday night I was out with a good friend of mine. After I did a short 1st and 2nd gear pull (just to the top of 2nd) she said:
"It's cute that my fiance thinks his car is fast".
He drives a late 2000s V6 Mustang with some basic upgrades.

Ebay Sale - funny
There is an fc for sale on ebay and the owner described it as a 6cyl. I asked him if he did the rebuild and he emailed me back that the 6 cyl. was the original engine! He doesn't deserve to have that car!! LOL

The first time I drove my RX-7 to work a guy came up to me and said:
"Nice car, what is it a Mazda? I used to have one of them, those twin turbo V6's are fast eh."
LOL!

God, I love this thread so much 
I feel bad, 'cause about the second time I recognized an RX-7 it was a classmate's FC and I was stumbling over which engine nomenclature, and he filled in with "12A, right?" and I jumped for the bait. I'm pretty sure he was ******' with me. But it's ok, I made up for it by rebuilding my own TII motor a couple years ago. Right?

So last year I was driving to a big rib festival in a neighbouring city, and I was parking at a friend's sisters place a couple minutes from the festival. As I was driving down the street, windows down, sunroof open, I heard a kid say to his father 'Dad, I want a race car!' all I heard in reply was 'Not like that one'
I really don't understand why you'd want to stomp your kids dreams or where he was coming from.

Some other smart *** comments I'v gotten on my RX-7 are:
-"So would that be the same motor that's in my wife's sewing machine?"
-"1.3 liter? That must be very easy on gas."
-"My lawn mower has more ***** than your car."
-"Is that a 2 stroke?" and "sounds like a 2 stroke."
Another guy has an FC with a 350ci engine, his comment was: " there's no replacement for displacement." And he was only running a second faster than my stock n/a FC on the strip.
And of course the number one question is: "Do you got a V8 in that?" (cuz so many people swap out the rotary for a V8) I am proud to say No, she's still got the 13B.

Is that a 240sx!
No. It's a RX7
Oh, it must be unreliable.
No, it's N/A more reliable than boosted models.
So, do you drift it a lot?
No, it's a RX7, they're generally bad at drifting unless modifying them to make them ok at prolonged oversteering without spinning out.
DUDE! DON'T PUT OIL IN YOUR GAS TANK! YOU'RE GOING TO RUIN YOUR ENGINE!
I don't even try to explain anymore.
One time some Initial D fanboy was telling me that an AE86 would smoke my car without even trying. Jeesh, I didn't know Live Rear Axles POS overhyped economy boxes could actually turn.

So i was at this track weekend, and since im the only one of my friends driving on the track i slept with them at the party camp, and this kid came over.
Kid: so what car is that.
Me: RX7
Kid: Oh right, it got a wankel engine then?
Me: Yes, a 2 rotor 1.3.
Kid: To bad you didn't get the 1.8, that was the best wankel mazda made.
Me: ??? (looking at my friends, relising explaining is useless).
Kid: I once saw a wankel that pulled on to 58 000RPM, but then ofcourse it blew up.
Me and my friends got a good laugh out of that, same kid sat in his mk2 Golf all night holding it at the rev limiter until the exhaust chaught fire.
I also get alot of people thinking Wankel engines run insane rpms, explaining to them that my slithly tuned Neon operates at exactly the same RPM just confuses them, since they all seem to have a friend that can get 15-16000 rpm out of their bone stock 13b...

I've learned in my time with RX-7s that 99.5% of the time when someone mentions "drifting", they can be ignored in the future.
Now just as I've said that, I will describe a situation that makes me stupid. I don't condone this kind of behaviour in any way and rarely partake in such idiocy.
I was driving just outside of the city on the way back from a service call and stopped at the main intersection of a small town. Beside me was some kind of modded Ford truck. A big one, with lots of chrome, a dual exhaust, and other truck bits. Now for the record I've never understood the whole "muscle truck" concept but I'm never a jerk to those people.
The driver of the truck got my attention and asked something like:
"What's it like driving a weed whacker?"
I'm thinking "huh" so I just respond:
"Fine"
He revs his engine and I just shake my head. He does it again so I say:
"Dude, I probably have 150 horsepower and 1500 LBs on you and I wouldn't waste my fuel"
His response was "That piece of jap-crap **** doesn't have 400HP ******"
I grinned and said "Oh, sorry. I didn't know your million litre V8 only made 250HP. I guess I have about 250HP on you then"
At that point the light changed so I left the intersection at a reasonable speed. It's a 50 KM/H zone in a small town with kids around (which make me wonder why he wanted to race?!). The way the road is configured, he's forced to merge behind me onto the regional highway, which then has a 90 KM/H speed limit. So he merges, and I'm driving along at 100 KM/H.
As we approach a straight section of several miles, he moves out to pass (without signalling, and he had been tailgating the whole way). I hear his mighty V8 growl as he gains on me.
As he is lined up with my drivers door, the evil side of me takes over so I dump the car into 3rd and put it to the floor.
The quiet country air is broken by the sound of the squeal from my rear tires as the turbo wails and the engine runs to redline. He's in my rear view, so I shift it into 4th, catch the back end as it steps out, and take 4th to redline.
I shut down at the top of 4th, shifting it into 5th and coasting down, resuming just above the speed limit.
About a minute later he's behind me again, so wave out my window for him to pass, moves slightly to the right, and give him a thumbs up as he timidly passes.
As it turns out there was a bit of a traffic situation at the next intersection so I was once again beside him, I turning left and him turning right.
I yelled over "What's this about jap-crap again?" but all I got was a "**** you".
I had the boost set to 13PSI on the "daily driver" setting.

It sucks to hear that Canada has the same jackass macho-man guys who look down on everyone for what they drive... just like California. I can't imagine what its like in the south where its all truck country.

Pulled up to the gas station right after i put my car all back together(mind you i hadnt put the hood on yet) and was topping off when some guy comes up (after he oviously saw me dump a pint of 2 stroke oil in my tank)
he says "hey heard you come in the station and i heard your valve noise and your engine pinging..."
i interupted him and said "yea i just got her together but this type of engine doesnt have valves or cams"
he looks at me funny and continues... "you need to adjust your timing and you shouldnt add 2 stroke oil to your gas to try and make that quieter. Ignoring a problem will just make it worse in the long run."
I said "the oil is for lube not noise and the pinging is my exaughst piping hittin the y-pipe"
He replies "well ive been a diesel mechanic for 5 years and i know a thing or two about motors and whats right and whats wrong"
i walk around the front of the seven and say without attitude and calmly "where are my valves again"
he looks nods hid head and in a pissy tone "i was just giving you advice im not gunna sit hear and fix your car for you" and walks away... guess i made him feel like a master pro mechanic
I also got this once while premixing "those rx7s are nice my brother had one and he didnt believe me when i told them they are a 2 stroke"
Me "they arent tho"
Him "well your premixing your gas so it must be..."
Me "im premixing to keep it lubricated but it is a 4 cycle engine"
Him "well i dunno i never put oil in my civics gas tank but maybe it would help?"
Me "no you dont have to and shouldnt i have a rotary"
Him "I know thats what i was talking about they are a 2 stroke"
Me "ok you got me....
Ignorance is a BITCH!
also found this kinda funny but nobody said anything bad about rotarys after i got my car running cept this one guy with a crx and all he said was the were unreliable... because he asked it apex seals were hard to change and i told him that you have to rebuild to change em. not even 20 minutes later he goes to his crx and it wouldnt start...

I wouldn't really know, but it seemed fairly high. I don't know if it had any appreciable suspension lift but it did seem to have aftermarket wheels.

lol this thread is rad.
one time some bro in a stock cobra vert pulled up to a pump next to me, saw my ABC 3 Piece wheels, and said "ya know, i never understood why people put fancy wheels on their rice burners... i guess it's kinda like putting granite tile in your double wide, do all you want to make it nice, but at the end of the day it's still a double wide"
i did LOL at it, and did tell him that was a good joke all in good fun but then i asked if he wanted to see how slow my car really was. he declined even with me telling him it was just a tiny little 1.3l rotary and his car would surely take mine ;p
i even offered to spot him a few lengths in a joking manner, and he still was saying "nahhh, nahhhhh i'm good"
i just replied with "ahhh man such a big meow coming from such a small little kitty cat" and we both parted ways.
then another time some older dude asked me if my car was like a weed eater because i was premixing at the pump.
i've had cops tell me that my car was so loud, yet it doesnt even look like it would get out of it's own way.... hahaha

I'm thinking "huh" so I just respond:
"Fine"
He revs his engine and I just shake my head. He does it again so I say:
"Dude, I probably have 150 horsepower and 1500 LBs on you and I wouldn't waste my fuel"
His response was "That piece of jap-crap **** doesn't have 400HP ******"
I grinned and said "Oh, sorry. I didn't know your million litre V8 only made 250HP. I guess I have about 250HP on you then"
At that point the light changed so I left the intersection at a reasonable speed. It's a 50 KM/H zone in a small town with kids around (which make me wonder why he wanted to race?!). The way the road is configured, he's forced to merge behind me onto the regional highway, which then has a 90 KM/H speed limit. So he merges, and I'm driving along at 100 KM/H.
As we approach a straight section of several miles, he moves out to pass (without signalling, and he had been tailgating the whole way). I hear his mighty V8 growl as he gains on me.
As he is lined up with my drivers door, the evil side of me takes over so I dump the car into 3rd and put it to the floor.
The quiet country air is broken by the sound of the squeal from my rear tires as the turbo wails and the engine runs to redline. He's in my rear view, so I shift it into 4th, catch the back end as it steps out, and take 4th to redline.
I shut down at the top of 4th, shifting it into 5th and coasting down, resuming just above the speed limit.
About a minute later he's behind me again, so wave out my window for him to pass, moves slightly to the right, and give him a thumbs up as he timidly passes.
As it turns out there was a bit of a traffic situation at the next intersection so I was once again beside him, I turning left and him turning right.
I yelled over "What's this about jap-crap again?" but all I got was a "**** you".
I had the boost set to 13PSI on the "daily driver" setting.

I feel like every day I've got a new story with my car lol
The other night me and a friend went to see transformers 3 at midnight, and got out around 3 am.
Now this kid is a little uh.. nerdy I wanna say, was always in kind of slower classes in school but doesn't have a disability of any sort. Just a little slow with learning.
He's a simple kid, cashier at path mark, keeps to himself but I was always nice to him in school since I was in a slow class or two a few times with him (cause I'm extremely bad with math lol) and would always defend the kid when the dudes who thought they had big dicks would pick on him.
Ralph always offers me gas money or some kind of compensation whenever he wants to go out and do something once in a while, and that's much appreciated since we all know most people are cheap and these rotarys love gas haha
So anyway, we get out and we're leaving the parking lot, which is VERY big might I add. I've still got a ton of popcorn left from a large that ralph didn't want to finish so I kept it.
I'm like "yo ralph, hold on to that popcorn" as I look and make sure there's no cars coming or near the approaching turn.
He says "I got it don't worry"
I'm like "TIGHTER!"
Ralph: I GOT IT!
Me: watch this
I dump it in second and drift the corner all the way and all I hear from timid little Ralph is "FUUUUUCK"
I finish and just drive casually and look at ralph and say "was that fun?"
Ralph goes "YEAH DUDE THIS CAR IS ****** BADASS!!"
That made my night hahahaha

Ehhhhr in general bro truck guys are just plain dumbshit retarded. I haven't met 1 bro truck owner that was chill. They all seem to think because they own a truck they rule the road and have the fastest automobile ever built. And not surprisingly they're act more ricey than the Honda scene.
i ran into a lifted truck meet when I went to get some food with a couple friends and this all they did, honk there air horns, rev them DIEEEEEESEL engines, and do ricerfly bys when they left. All that noise non of the pull.
Another thing that bugs me about bro truck is that they install some of the brightest HID's and when they're behind you the light reflects of all the mirrors into your eyes and it's really bothersome. Specially in the highway. It always makes my day

^ I was at a local car forum meet one time in the O'Reilly's parking lot a while back. Some doucher in a lifted diesel truck pulled out of the Wendy's drive-thru next door and flew recklessly across the parking lot for the sole purpose of blanketing the meet in black smoke (cool tune, bro ). I praised him for being "so JDM", but I don't think he heard me over the sound of his shitty truck
