i think he should change his disclaimer to "i like to post all day about a car that i own but hate. my goal is to continously put down my car so that other forum members get angry after hearing it for several yrs. the reason is b.c i have no life. i need to go to a rx7 enthuasist forum and bash the car sometimes explicitly and sometimes stealthy

So it does make you angry that someone over the internet is bothering you by the way they post??

LOL @ that

I dont know how many times i asked the people who dont like the way i post to put me on ignore.

Its a fact i wont leave. Its a fact i wont change the way i post. Its a fact i could care less if you agree with what i say or not. Its a fact i could care less if what im saying complies with your feelings or not.

So why not just end it all and take 10 seconds and put it all to rest? Thats why each forum has that option.

Its simple. Because even if you really "hate" what i say, you JUST have to read what i say.

Its amazing how the mind works.

It's not running right at the moment unfortunately. I'm taking it up to Orange County Corvette to figure out why it's not making boost(belt isn't slipping, boost gauge is accurate, no leak in the system, etc etc.). It may also go for some upgrades too depending on what I do with my FD.

A friend of a friend is trying to get the money to buy my FD from me so I can pay off bills, and do some more mods on the C5. If he doesn't, and I don't end up selling it, I'll probably yank the motor on the FD and begin operation LS1-3 swap. Granted, I'll be stuck with spam food for the next couple of years, but it'll be worth it. Decisions, decisions.

I post what i feel, plain and simple.

I target no one except for the few times ill do it out of sarcasm and ill let you know on that part.

Its not my fault the 5, 6, 7 or 8 of the SAME people who bitch about my posts have to say something in random threads.

If you see it coming, just scroll your little mouse past the name "1QWIK7". Why even bother reading the post? So you can reply and we can start a 10 page discussion?

Its funny, people DONT put me on ignore because they wanna see what i have to say, its rather amusing how that works. They bitch about what i say, but they wanna read it anyway LOL

To address your point first, you're not being realistic. You can't really read through a thread where you have someone on ignore. In your case, people will probably call BS and say things like, "You don't know what you're talking about." Which would naturally make me curious as to what the hell you could've said. You being you, I could probably guess that it was something inflammatory about the FD, but who's to say you didn't say something equally stupid about an FC or the like? But when you really get down to it, why post things like that at all? And on an RX7 board too? If you don't care what people think, and all you do is get bashed about what you say, move on. There are plenty of other boards where you can express your opinion, so why keep posting on this one? Unless you're just a troll who likes to stir **** up, I can't see any other reason for staying.

constant bashing is a troll. expressing an opinion is fine. the the constant nature of what some you do (not only 1qwik7, but others in this thread as well) is being a troll.

Like I said it cracks me up. It’s rather entertaining to see how you make things about yourself and your supercharged c5. Hey guy just add a pic of your C5 and list of mods on your sig that’s what it’s for

Don’t get me wrong I’m sure the car is badass, but jesus christ man you milk it to death.

Yeah I know it would come off like that. But it really isn’t. I think a supercharged c5 is cool/awsome. (don’t want one but I can certainly respect them) It really is something that cracks me up. Just about every thread he comes in and talks about HIMSELF and his c5 yet no one is asking lol! I just thought I’d point it out.

No it’s not about that either see above.

Habitual? More like an addiction lol Check this out and keep in mind that no one was asking him anything which makes it even funnier:

oh you have a s/c c5 NOOOOICE!

What power is your civic making, and what times can you hit with it? Sounds like a fast car man, if it's taking down 11 second V8's.
yeah C5's are cool cars

Awesome FD you have. Get some good tires on there and smoke him.
yup I said it before boosted c5's are awsome

And corvettes were setup to run 91 octane, not 93. Which is why my boosted C5 runs on 91 just fine.
yeah like I said boosted c5's = cool

Someday I will get a C6Z06 and throw Twin Turbos on it. Have to settle for a Pro-charged C5 for now...
I know I heard you already boosted c5....

If my FD was running better, I'd be matching it up to stock C5's and such. The 240sx with stock boost, about the same. Though I don't mind trying to race faster cars with a slower car, just to see how it stacks up.

The money issue is kind of lame, when you can throw a V8 in a Yugo and make it insanely fast for less than 10k total. Hell buy a 2 thousand dollar Fox body and throw a twin turbo kit in. See what I mean? Different strokes for different folks.
I can read... yada yada you have a c5

I know man seriously, you have a boosted c5

Check my corvette hp rating. @ 8psi. On a stock motor. No 2.0litre 4cyl or 13b will do that. Not on such low boost.
*in a mexican voice* ayyy... these guy don't liiisteeen

With a C6 Z06, he grabbed an 11.21(give or take) and 10.85 with DR's after 70 runs. Meaning, a competent driver could still get an 11.3-11.5 and 10.9's with DR's. Hell even the car magazines were pulling mid 11's with a stock C6 Z06. As I said, you beat a guy who can't launch.

Would be like racing me vs racing my friend who I bought my S/C vette from. I can't launch to save my life(this Z driver was spinning and bogging bad), but my friend has been drag racing for 20 years(his launch would have been similiar to the FD's in the video depending on what tires the FD is running). You'll kill me with a slower car every time out of the hole, but Tom will get you from the 60' on.

Good run by the FD, but you're going to need faster times if you're going to race a guy who actually knows how to launch.

what a surprise let me guess you and something to do with the c5

Had a turbo-Powerstroke try and get infront of my corvette to turn right at the next light. He was too busy hearing his diesel over my blower, to know that I wasn't a stock vette.

Too bad my FD isn't anywhere near as fast..... Yet.

For the love of God man!

Also the C5 out of the factory is good for 170+mph.
I give up.

Most of the guys with the C6Z's probably won't know how to use them well and just have deep pockets, so make sure to murder them appropriately. Now if it's one of the guys I run with in my Vette runs, look out they'll murder you. These guys are insane and make us young guys look timid.

whew! thought I'd never finish

lol ha ha I can't wait till next time you come into a thread just talk about yourself again. Self absorbed? just a little.
