Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

Well I know nothing's wrong with my car, its still 233 WHP but man it feels dirt slow in a crx. I tried racing a z06 today and he beat me good. i was sad. I think my car "feels" slower each time I drive it. the addiction with speed is strong with me. anyone else acclimate to their power and want more and more each time because it starts to "feel slow"?

ok bye.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

My car kept feeling slower and slower... and then, the rpms sped up but the car didn't. it felt really slow then.

now with the new clutch i was like "yay, it feels faster" ... a week later... nothing.

my solution to the problem. drive a much slower car. :) i.e. i use my moms car :)

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

That happens to me every day. Then I relize that my car really is slow then I wake up. I have really bad sleeping problems. I think they are nightmares.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

When mine starts to feel slow it's either because it's humid out or my timing it too retarded.

Just compensate by adding more boost. :P

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

its deffinatly your clutch sliping out alittle bit

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

ya, i get the same feeling. these dam és skate shoes are running a bit rich sometimes. always loosing tread, and constantly slipping.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

hey man, sorry that my rents dont pay for everything.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

im doing that soon.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

your mom is like a vacuum, always suckin.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

your starting to kill mom jokes :-\

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

one time i felt like my car was going so slow that it had started going in reverse but then i woke up and went outside ,poped the hood , and saw that the boost fairy had left a nice little t3 under my hood solving my slow problems ....well for a few weeks any way till i got a new car

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

Ya, Mine seems to be getting slower, but then I drive the GF sr20 Nissan and all is good.
Just goto to a dealership pick a nice car and drive the ---- out of it, and you'll be like mine still faster. Did it with a buddy and a 2001 H22 'Lude

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

i thought my del sol was fast then i went turbo and thought it was faster now i has a lude thats fast already and i cant wait to boost it and make it go faster even though its fast

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

sorry to break it to ya bud but stock ludes aint fast..
there just to heavy

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

oh ya back to topic... just boost a little more... maybe 12 psi

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

He's already boosting 10. Plus I don't think that he wants to do that cuz he doesn't want to buy another engine.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

sure he does ;D

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

You are just getting used to the power. It's like the first time you ride that certain roller coaster and are afraid of what will happen, but after 4 or 5 times, you are used to it, and would get on it without even thinking about it.

It just means one thing

Time to upgrade!!!

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

Specialy 93 H23 'ludes that supposidly have 4ws when HOnda dropped the system in 92!

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

there was actually a guy on honda-tech with this really clean one. but it had an h22 i think it was a 94 might have been 92. but who gives a ----. for notphiltran. it just happens like that man. u get soo used to driving your car. it just doesnt feel fast anymore. like when i was boosted for a month. hahaha. it felt fast at first. then it felt slow. then one day it was fast. i knew there was a problem. so i was checking the whole thing out. and i had a mad ass leak. like big time. then i fixed it and my car felt 10x better. and my bov was loud as ---- now. but then my motor gave out 2 weeks later. haha. the reason why i noticed it was because i hadnt been boosted for a while. so go drive a slow car. then drive your car the next day. it'll be aite man

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

il get pics of the 4ws and the 93 on the door jam

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

My clutch was slipping too, and it felt slower everytime I drove the car. Well, that is...until I spun all the rod bearings.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

yeah that suck my buddy had the clutch almost gone and to drive he would floor and it would sound like he was racing and going like 100 mph but he was really going like 20 tops :-\ poor guy blew the engine

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

black del sol, sorry, but your friend is a complete idiot for trying to drive a car like that.

What I say, notphiltran, is to drive a very very slow car. I for instance, would drive my parents minivans, and then have to go to my car. You'll appreciate it more when you realize how slow everything else is compared to your car.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

hahah funny. Yeah i feel that sometimes too. Just drive a slower car. its just because you get use to it like ------- a girl everday and wanting to ---- another girl you think is hott

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

i think his car is accualy slower. since he said his ca was slower aginst the z06. i still say its your clutch if it was the clutch and it was slipping. you would still probebly dyno the same because pulling a car on a dyno is nothing like pulling its accual weight

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

There's always ways to check that. Dynoing it again, or take it the track and compare it to an old time slip.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

well i know its not my clutch... but anyways.. its all psychological to me.

but my car feels fast again, a kid in my girlfriends school has a 2004 corvette c5 automatic. he thought he was king ----. she talked some ----, i ended up racing him a few times last night. put a few cars on him both times. all is well in the kingdom again!

whoot for mad 3rd gear vtec vs corvette

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

i think my car has always been slow......other people think its fast though.....

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

I've had the same deal with my CRX and my friends. It was quick, but by no means was it fast.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

My car is the slowest thing around....it didn't even move an inch in the past 2-3 weeks.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

just drive paul's car ;)

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

so if i beat a o4 corvette c5 can i consider my self "fast"?

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

only if you also consider yourself "furious"




when I replaced the d15b2 with the b16a it felt fast, then I overheated the bastard and had to fix ----, now it's slow and I have a check engine light for o2 sensor all day everyday.

Re:Any one ever get the feeling their cars getting slower?
 

people tell me my cars slower, but i think it's just because they are jealous.
