Yo get a Supra dat way u own da streetz. Seriously, you're considering selling your car because it doesn't win you enough races, or make your dong feel big enough when you roll up to a stop light in it?

Paying for college too. School is expensive. $750 every three months. That is just classes.
But, I should have enough in a year.

There's nothing more priceless than the look on their faces when they can't shake you. Just don't be surpised when you can't keep the wheel straight off the line or fry your clutch down the road

. first gens are faster, they just aren't as pretty and don't "handle" as well(as far as fwd goes). But Yeah, with minor mods, a first gen turbo will be a lot faster than a second gen V6 with bolt ons.

To the original poster: Don't doubt the 7, It'll come back to bite you in the ***. Just save up for the tii swap, port, and let the magic begin.
Honda's aren't much of a joke anymore, especially to us N/A guys (this comming from a guy with a SP). Just gotta keep ur hopes up. Every little mod helps, if not the hp, then in terms of reliability.

Step One: Learn how to drive
Step Two: Race a CRX,if you win, go to step 3
Step Three: Race a civic...if you win, sell your GXL and buy a TII or an SE and put a blower on it.
Step Four:Kill yourself street racing because you skipped steps 1-3 and bought an FD

I am currently saving for a T2 swap. I can't have mommy and daddy buy it for me like most of you. I have to work hard for all the stuff on my car. After rent, and all bills I have $50 a month to spend towards performance. I was just hoping that what I had bought was going to at least let me beat some cars.
I have lost to many many cars. 93 Probe GT(not stock), 96 Probe GT(stock), Civic EX(stock), Accord EX(stock).......
Hopefully my experiences with a T2 motor will be better.

For the record, I bought all of my cars out of pocket. My 90 Mustang when I was 15, my 95 Probe GT when I was 17, my 94 SC2 when I was 18 and my FD when I was 20. I'm still 20.
Don't ******* hate on me because I did something with my life and make good money.

That statement wasn't geared toward you. I am very thankful for what you did post. Good ideas. I am glad that you have bought most of the stuff yourself. I wish more people would.
Sorry if you felt it was geared toward you. Thank you.
I can't wait until I can get a better job. But I am still going to school.

Id have to agree, nothing is worse then sarcasm taken seriously... =/
although primered body kits, and loud *** lawnmower exhaust systems add about 100 FWhp. gotta love the vtak
