you know what pisses me off? when people think the km/po is hpw fast the actual car goes. one time i asked someone with an eclipse what they wound it out to. he said about 200. i was like.. wow , you musta spent 30 grand on it just to break 180. he said... no no no it goes to 220 or something he said. he said it goes that fast from the factory. o looked at him strange. looked inside the car. i told him that that isnt the miles per hour. thats kilometers per hour. the spedo read upto 150. he insisted that i was wrong.

they say the same ---- for clutches too. i've been asked what stage my clutch is. i just tell them it's stock. it is a ACT HD pressure plate with street disk, stock right?
