Hello? You're the freaking rice expert. Every freaking B16 Civic around
here transplants a lameass B18 and thinks their kingh*t.
11's with slicks... With Supercharger AND Nitrous... That makes you an
expert? You want to bring up relatives??? My father was to drive the
first proposed factory backed Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo NHRA Pro Stocker (yes
NHRA Pro Stocker) that would have run 7.10's in 1986. NHRA was on their
way to allowing Buddy Ingersoll's V6 Buick to run and the Japanese car
companies wanted to play too. NHRA finally got scared off when they
decided it would explode costs in the category.
No Nitrous. Just a Nissan GTP motor built for drag racing. The pro import
crowd hasn't come close to fulfilling what a full on professional factory
backed pro stock team was working on 15 years ago.
Take your slams someplace else. The ricers can't win the war... For every
9 second import there are a hundred 8 second domestics (not street cars in
my book, but legal in Bumfrick, Ohio). Again. It's impressive in the
import world only for output they get per liter of displacement. To talk
sh*t about 1/4 mile times is just a waste of time.....
