i only got pulled over once for speeding when my 240 looked like this (i did get asked to pop my hood and did get a ref ticket for my sr20)

it was actually ok, just had to watch my back but nothing too crazy... tho i did have 2way LSD, solid motor mounts, but helps to have a quiet exhaust.

Paid the fines, got tired of dealing in fear of cops and ref tickets and got rid of her.

Before I used to get randomly pulled over when the car looked like this during the build process

and ive had a ref ticket from that as well (was at a friends house around midnight, and a group of us left to head out to the starbucks chill spot, and a cop followed us out of the residential area and pulled my car over for really no ******* reason, probably thought we where up to no good, and they struck a goldmine since I had an sr20*

Drove it like this for a few weeks with no bumpers

it was still KA at the time.

Back when the 1st gen and I were both younger, we'd have proved you wrong. I've had Spry Beastie off the end of its (1979 retrofit) speedo before.

Took some time getting there, but still.

No I dont doubt you at all. I once put my NA FC vs. my buddies GSL and I swear we were neck to neck at about 130+ MPH no joke it was crazy when I looked over and saw his chubby *** in this little first gen reving to death and keeping up! LOL

*good times

Much upwards of there, though, the SA's start getting a little aerodynamically unstable. I think they start making lift.

the fb front bumper is probably adding to the "lift". Cause air goes under there so easily lol. And plus, it's so light.

Its still a 12A...to me its kinda like trying to pull 1000 HP out of a 4 banger instead of just getting a v8 or v10 and doing it for half the price. My .02
