C2 Vette vs ricer
 
I come from a family where the only way to make cars is in America and the onkly way to make fast cars is with V8s. Now with that said, these guys have been engine building since the '60s and by now have a laundry list of cars most car guys would give their left nut to drive just once. My uncle and I are out in the 1967 Corvette (red convertible, side pipes, black 427 hood scoop). The motor is an L69 427 with a few go-fast bits that put down about 550whp, and all of that blows through side pipes with no mufflers, the sheer sound is something that cannot be duplicated.
Me and my uncle just got out of a car show and there is some Nissan 240SX at the light next to us. I don't know what had been done to this 240, but from the sound of the exhaust it desperately needed a new owner (it rattled more than it made revved). This guy looks over at us, revs up, and smiles. My uncle looks back over at him with one of the angriest faces I have ever seen, throws his cigarette and bounces it off the back window of the 240, then revved the Vette. He revved it up to about 2000rpms first, let it back down, then let loose up to around 4500rpms. The sound is near deafening at that pointand the pressure coming out of the side pipes actually rocks the 240 a little. The guy in the 240 just slides down really low in his seat with this defeated expression on his face and doesn't even launch hard at the light, but of course my uncle left at rather nice rubber donation and tore off with a force that makes one weak in the stomach.

Just thought I would share this story from the summer, not quite an RX-7 kill but who needs rotors when you have 8 pistons displacing 7 cubic inches of roaring power!:coolkid01

Wow you beat up on a 117hp 240. I think you should post this story where folks might get offended, like nicoclub.com or some other nissan website.

god damn man! yeaaaah! i always hear stories like these.... "my uncle", "my friend", "neighbor" .... pretty cool you gave your left nut to your uncle to drive in the passenger seat. major props.

thats really gay. it doesnt even matter that it was against a 240, as an s13 owner i couldnt care less, but i'd be pissed if some one threw a cigarette butt at my car. they 240 just looked over and smiled when he revved and ur uncle got a pissed off look and threw a cigarette at the car? your uncle sounds like a jackass

amp 02-09-08 08:45 AM

sheer arrogance on the part of your uncle to throw that cig...

1RevvinFC3S 02-09-08 07:51 PM

Your uncle is a fucking asshole if he did that shit. The guy in the 240 was probably just messing around. Rev + smile usually means "Hey, cool car". Sounds like your uncle needs to be a car short in his fleet.

Agreed. If his uncle had done that to my S13, I'd have let him feel what a 2liter turbo was capable of. I hate pricks like that. Just pass them followed by :squintfin

how fast do you think that car would get smoked a by a 2.6L rotary? :)

gkarmadi 02-12-08 01:42 PM

I think just a simple SR20 swap or KA-T setup would do it. No need to build up. Hell a stock FD would probably walk him. C2's weren't THAT fast. Even the 427 ones unless they were built for drag.

Ask your UNCLE if he wants to trade a cigarette butt for a pair of dentures.

V8what?! 02-12-08 10:34 PM

hilarious
 
This is definitely one of my favorite threads! Not because it`s informative, but because I laughed through all the responses!!

XxMerlinxX 02-12-08 10:51 PM

If you think this was funny, you should read the one about the kid who made a "Team Shinken" with a riced out first gen.

if someone threw a cig at my car I would throw my FIRE EXTINGUISHER at theirs.

Megabridge 02-14-08 02:09 AM

His uncle was probably pissed because a rotary just kicked his "high performance" vettes ass.

socalrotor 02-14-08 10:39 AM

LMAO at the 7 cubic inches, what a noob!

spandy 02-14-08 01:18 PM

If your uncle threw his cig at the back window of any one of my vehicles, he'd be in for an ass kicking before the ash hit the ground.

What a jack ass, I really hope you made that part up, because that is an assinine thing to do.
