Dude, did you not see my ------- sn-95 New Edge Mustang Gt? It's the second slowest car among the three, the slowest being my daily-driven 02 Accord ex. I like fox bodies, I owned and 88 conv. Gt and 93 conv. LX. I like stangs, GOBBSS of potential. Even faster than the vr4

you STILL didn't comment about the stang. I say enough about the ------- vr4. I am tired of talking about it. It's an awesome car. The mustnag is going to be awesome after I install these frpp 4.10 gears I have here. I can't wait.

I'm gonna leave her n/a, but if I went forced, it would def. be turbo. Every vid I see of a turbo stang vs. supercharged shows supercharged jump out front, only to then hear an evil hiss as th turbo stang builds boost and FLIES THE ---- BY!! I love that sound.

My point exactly!! Why is he so worried about a couple VR4 owners coming in. Adds a bit of mix to the show. Our cars aren't the best cars in the world, but we enjoy them! They are a couple hundred pounds overweight, but like I said. It's not too difficult to put them on a diet and drop some weight!

The pig of a Vr4 is ---- compare to a skyline. 1/4 times skyline would rape that tank.


do you want to see the video of the 3000gt or they call it the GTO in japan beating the skyline in a 1/4mile...both have professional race car drivers?

My fault on the DSM / Mitsubishi mix up there.

I just figured since 3000GT's are just as unreliable and prone to breakage as Eclipses and what not....you get the picture.

I still don't like the "muscle car" term used on Japanese cars. Muscle car implies raw brute strength instead of "oh 6 cylinders isn't enough, let's add a turbo and then how it goes." The only exception I can see to that would be a GNX.

Why are you guys hell bent on using the term muscle car to describe Japanese cars anyways? Doesn't performance car work just as well? Or do you feel the need to try and fit in somewhere you don't belong. Thats usually the last thing I think of when I hear the word muscle or muscle car. That being Japan or their cars. The term muscle is reserved for American cars that make power with raw displacement and cylinder count, rather than raw high RPM capability and turbo count.

For the sake of argument I'm with random strike, hotrex, and rawr on this one. You VR4 guys who came here bashing what HMT is established on, and you guys who feel the need to describe japanese performance cars as "muscle" cars - get bent. You know who you are.
