There is this "Nitemare" car ( a civic with body kit, bmw midnight blue paintjob, custom back end widened...... anyways it looks AWESOME) its got a few performance mods i know of anyways... like cat back, ram intake, headers.... anyways i was 2 car lengths ahead of him up until 80. I was soooo proud of my EX!!!! I'd like to thank my transmission for down shifting at the right time, and my new b&m shift improver to help me jump ahead during shifts rather than fall behind ;).

I just installed the electronic shift improver tonight, and i love it!! works great.

No offense to you psychotic, but that Riceboy needs to take his car back to the drawing board.......

Any supposed "performance vehicle" that gets beaten by a 160 HP load of bricks on wheels should be ashamed.
 






haha ..... yeah lets introduce nitemare.... to troll.. lol he would wet himself.. btw good job on the win..
 






The car looks nice, i think it could use a lil work on some performance. But... i couldn't believe my ex was accelerating that fast. It downshifted with no delay and just flew. This guys car really isn't that slow... i felt like i had 225 hp for a while
 






What gears do you have? If 4.10s I can see you easily taking him off the line, but if he had mods he should have pulled on you if you ran to 80 b/c the ohv engine has basically no good power past 50-60. If you ran him to 80 and beat him, that proves my theory that ricers are punks who drop 10,000 into a car to make it fuggly and still can't drive it:rolleyes: :D . I've taken plenty of Civics off the line in my 94' but only up to about 40.
 






Speaking of rice:D , I pulled into school today and theres a kid with a new Lincoln Navigator totally friggen riced out. It has one of the most friggen ugliest body kits (Imagine a big Civic as an SUV and you get the idea). About 15 JL Audio stickers on it. Ugly rims, and to make it worst he actually had on a ricer exhaust (from the sound), the tip was the kind that comes out and angles up with duals together. It sounded like a big V8 fart-box when he was driving (think of a very large displacment 4banger thats the best way to describe the sound), nothing like a V8 should sound, everyone walking out on the sidewalk was grilling it/him like WTF? I'm gonna
b!tch slapp that kid when I see him for disgracing that truck:D

When I get a digital camera I'll try to get pictures of it.
 






we went up to about 90 mph, i had a car lead on him up to about 70, at which he started gaining on me pretty steady and passed me at 80. I have the stock xlt package gears, which i know has different gears... i'm not sure if its 3.73?? or 4.10....
I know he can drive, i know who he is now after asking around. He used to drive a 68 mustang.
Also.... just thought i'd throw in, with a recent 45 min drive on the highway, which i don't do all that often... anyways, i noticed that possibly from my "ghetto ram air" setup, accelerating at speeds above 60 can actually feel like i'm accelerating from 30-40 again esp when it down shifts.
 






simple green mod.

wash your engine psychotic. ashame to have a sport truck with such a nasty looking engine.
 






eh no one looks at it, i'll wash it if i think someone might ;)
