quality of cars at the RR meets

[04 Turbo Spec]

i have to say i went to my first RR meet and was very impressed with the quality of cars there. i was expecting like civics with fart cans but i was dead wrong, the import scene around here is top notch, i mean STI's, EVO's, SRT-4's, S2K all over the place, oh and u can't forget about the turbo spec-v representing

i have to say lshatch's s2k was very nice, we sould race or somthing

i have to say lshatch's s2k was very nice, we sould race or somthingNice to see someone in the area with a turbo'd Spec V. How much of a hassle was it to put in and tune? Did you get any stock vs. turbo'd dyno's done? But back when I had my Spec V one of the problems I always hear with them was that the QR25DE wasn't a great engine for adding F/I too. But not knowing what else you have done to the car then it is kinda hard to tell. But either way good luck with the car and if I used to have traction problems with my stock Spec V I don't even want to imagine it with a turbo on it :eek:

[the mike]

I don't want to sound like an elitist, but the kind of crowd that usually has the Civics with the melon shooter and altezza's just doesn't fit in with the Red Robin crowd.
Most of us are in it to show how a well thought out ride, cleanly and (usually) tastefully done, can turn out. We aren't out there to see who has the baddest, loudest, brightest, or most obnoxious car. We started there to talk about our cars, show the new mods, and grab a bite to eat. The Fast and the Furious we are not. :wiggle:

Glad you had a decent time. :thumbup:

[04 Turbo Spec]

i agree this scene is very nice i used to hang with that type of crowd now i think my car and me fit in much better

red robin was sweet, it was the first time i brought my car, lol even tho nobody checked mine out lol, its just a stock integra so its nothing to brag about but i love tegs, and hondas so, i enjoyed it, there were some money rides there, some surprising mods and cars, but hopefully ill see everyone around soon, good times everyone good times

[SilverTurboRidin]

[MuddyREX]

A ton of modified cars with very little neon and vinyl. Not that there is anything wrong with neon or vinyl. :wiggle:

[LSHatch]

We're both in the same boat. My clutch is going. I have a CEL on, my car is running rich, and sounds like it's going to break. I win. haha.

[bad360rt]

I like the keep the hood closed idea better, damn I'm lazy LOL Nah, I'll try to clean it up tomorrow :thumbup:

Oh, what time do you guys meet up? I think it was 8, right?

[the mike]

Starts around 8, but doesn't get going until around 9:30.
Keep it civil, the Bensalem PD konw where we meet.

[DropTopChevy]

[CarbonIS]

I can't wait to finally go to one of these meets...
Too bad it won't be until after my trip to Europe :wiggle: :rock: :cool:

Haha maybe Ryan will let me drive his sti while we're there? huh ry?

[BlackBulletTSi]

I drive a Saturn and its GM so its domestic :)

[Bizee]

o sure...o wait, you mean my sti on GT4 right??

[gtp power]

I drive a Pontiac Grand Prix, I think that domestic.

[Blackout]

Well atleast its good to see that I won't be the only domestic there!

[Sid]

Sheesh! After seeing what some of the rides are, I may want to refrain from embarrassing myself and keep the wagon safe at home. Don't know if there's a place for an N/A Protege with minimal mods.............. :cry:

[LSHatch]

Don't worry. All sorts of cars come. And your car is definitely allowed!

I'm assuming it's a Protege5?? They are sweet.

[Sid]

Yeah, a Sunlight Silver Metallic 5.
The way I see it is that by the time I can make a meet, I'll have a new header and hopefully a new front lip/underspoiler. More mods=more cooler. lol Now if I could just make it fast. N/A.

[9 Ball]

Nothing but high quality automobiles at the Red Robin meets. And there is a good variety. Of course the usual cars, STI/WRXs, the DSMs, the 240s, a few of us EVOs. But what's really cool (I think) are the unique cars that show up. The light blue 64 Mustang, the 4G63 powered Porsche 911, etc. When you see a variety of different, very high caliber automobiles, I think it sends a serious message to on-lookers that these are dedicated automobile owners. It's a true craft, and when you know your craft... you stand out.

The ricers take one look at "us" and roll out. There's way too much heat in the Red Robin parking lot to come with a set of 5-hp stickers and fart can.

Even if you have a bone stock car, and you come out to enjoy the scene, that's cool, it's the ones that come with a muffler thinking it gives them 10 hp.

If you're gonna come... come correct.

[TrboChicsRock]

If you're gonna come... come correct.

Great advice! :thumbup:

[DoubleOughtCel]

well said, 9 ball :supz:

[stichris]

it's the ones that come with a muffler thinking it gives them 10 hp.

But my muffler gives me at least 30hp.... and it's Titanium. WTF mate? :lol:

Chicks like your car, and it doesn't make that $85 "fart" sound... so you're O.K. dude. :mrgreen:

[stichris]

He is saying your car isn't a "usual" car, not that you aren't a usual at the meet. Quit bitching about being the only s2k :finga: :lol:

[LSHatch]

He is saying your car isn't a "usual" car, not that you aren't a usual at the meet. Quit *no cursing!* about being the only s2k :finga: :lol:


Oh I'm sorry Mr. Sti #30005.


:finga:

[jinteg730]

haha, there are a good amount of subaru's at the meets, s2000's do seem to be rare in the red robin parkin lot, especially one as sexy as hopper's, hey i have a teg and didnt see many of them i saw one or two, very quality car might i ass lol, but its definately nice seeing the random cars here and there, the turbo spec, thats pretty rare, but everyone is there to show off what is nice and not rice, if u got rice dont come in with an attitude that thinks u can beat any car in a race, just park it :thumbup:

[DoubleOughtCel]

maybe i'm not looking hard enough, but i haven't seen any other celica's. hopefully thats not a bad thing haha

[stichris]

It's an inside joke.

[99ElectronBlueCivicSi]

It's an inside joke.

i understand that but still are u faster im jus wondering its been bugging me for some reason

[stichris]

His turbo is much, much bigger than mine, so I hope he's faster ;)

[04 Turbo Spec]

i wonder if i would stand a chance with an STI (i would hope so) i would like to see one day if anyone is down

[04 Turbo Spec]

:iagree:

yea how about them turbo spec-v's they are rare

[Jeffros Spec V]

Your sig is wrong.

Ummm yeah well Scoobys started this a LONG time ago.

[M3_JOHN]

i wonder if i would stand a chance with an STI (i would hope so) i would like to see one day if anyone is down

If your turbo is putting down 300whp...you could definitely hang with an STI... if anything I'd say youd pull on one....stock STI that is. I'm guessing they put down like 240awhp.

[bad360rt]

Well, I'm just gonna guess and say that I'll be the only blown R/T at the meet tonight, so I guess that makes me unique LOL :thumbup:

[stichris]

Stock STi's put down anywhere from 230 - 270awhp.

Depends on teh car, adn the dyno.

[ihopeyoudie]

im guessing the "inside joke" is my comment made. i had it coming- but to explain:

i only assumed the white sti (chrissti) was very fast because it had a large fmic, and people who know what they are doing with cars usually put the front-mount on when they need it- meaning the top-mount is just not efficient enough, meaning they have all of the other mods like a larger turbo, fuel system, etc.... i know about how the top mounts like to heat soak and all of that, but honestly with a stock turbo you don't need a front-mount.

so- guess i gave chrissti too much credit. don't worry it won't happen again.

230 to 270 thats a big gap but i think i could take one

[99SL2_Modder]

I think the quality sucks. Too many Saturns.

Saturns suck :finga:
