The rape of a Mustang!
I was on my way back home after work last night. I get off the highway and there is very clean yellow Mustang GT (87-93) in front of me. I follow him for a mile or two. It sound bone stock (Is that even possible... a stock Mustang? :) ). After a while we are finaly side by side at a stop sign. I take off slowly waiting for him to punch it from a roll. He finally did it. Laaaaaaaag, booooooooost, wheel spin, 8000rpm, BANG 2nd gear is in. I keep my concentration on my 2 millions gauges. Here comes 8000rpm again. Shift 3rd gear.
I look next to me. He is not there. :D I look in the mirrors. He is a good 3-4 cars back. So I stopped. His first reaction was "Do you have a TypeR in there?" I told him I have a turbo and bla bla bla. Then he told me his car isnt running right and he can't really push it. (typical ricer excuse). He then told me he also have another Mustang and it will run 12s this summer. (hahahahaha) I gave him the thumb up for is clean ride and thats it. That was my story of the day. :D |
You own a 2000 civic and you're calling someone else a ricer when he owns a stang?
|
I did not call him a ricer. I said it was a typical ricer excuse. ;)
And I don't see why he could'nt be a ricer if he owns a Mustang. Its all in the attitude. :) |

Anyways nice kill, I hate people that give excuses when they lose. Are you running a T3 and are you intercooled? Nice, |
The turbo is a Mitsubishi 18G and I have a custom intercooler made with Spearco Core.

I am running 5-6 psi right now. I want to run it safe because I want to make sure I can drive the car all summer. I am planning to rebuild the internals this winter. |
I'm not denying his win or the moronics of the stang owner, I just find something wrong with a civic owner calling a stang owner a ricer.

You are making a good point. But I am 99.9% sure this guy was lying. ;)
|
I just helped my buddy install an intercooled Greddy turbo kit on his '99 Prelude. He's running 6psi for now, but my stang is still faster because he has an auto and it takes him forever to get in the powerband.
How much does your Civic weigh? With your trap speed it would be a good race against my stang except you'd probably be a little hurtin' off the line. |
I would say about 2650-2675 lbs with the turbo kit.

Nice kill Special K. There's nothing like being blown huh? ;) |

Aaaaaah. If his car was hurting then why'd he even try to race you in the first place? :rolleyes: That's a bunch of bull. If I know my car isn't running right, you think I'm gonna race someone and embarass my poor stang when it was not able to give it's full potential. Nope. Nice kill, Special K.
A friend of mine in a '92 Z28 got beat by a boosted MR2. Nice looking car too. Not too many respectable imports around here though so it's refreshing to see one or hear about one every once in a while. |
How can you go from a 5.0 to a civic? We need to beat the hell out of you:D
Nice Kill, Damn Ricers showing us mustnags up:cool: :D |
Well I drove the Mustang for a couple of years. Then I got tired of having to pay for two cars. Gaz, insurance, storage for winter, winter car always broken, etc. I also wanted to buy a brand new car. No more problems, warranty, peace of mind.
I had a tight budget. My 3 choices at the time were. Golf 1.8T, Sentra SE w/ Sport Package, Civic SiR. I bought the less expensive of the bunch. I spent a year bone stock. Then I bought an Cold Air Intake. Then the next year I bought shocks and springs. Now the car is 3 years old and the warranty is over so its fun time. :D |
whats the difference between the American Si and the SiR? I know America didnt get the SiR in 2000.
Nice kill. :) and yes, Mustang owners there are civics that can beat you. Its not that bad :D |
Civic Si (USA) and Civic SiR (Canada) are the same cars.
We have different colors, we have ABS, heated mirrors, thats about it. They named it SiR in Canada because we already had a civic called Civic Si. |
Nice Kill Special K, some people just can't deal with losing :p
|
Special K - Sounds like you have a nice ride. Hopefully your exhaust tip is smaller than the opening on a 5lb Foldger's can;)
That is really the only thing that annoys me about "Ricers"...that and riding with the driver seat folded all the way back...and wearing their hat on sideways...and stickers...but other than that I don't mind 'em at all:D |
My exhaust tip is 3". Like the rest of the exhaust. And its painted flat black. ;)
|
|
Very very very nice. Not rice at all. Can you say sleeper?
Looks great man! |
What, no Type R badges!!!:cool:
|
|
Whend you put on that turbo buddy? You always had a good running type R. Probably a peppy little daily driver now.
Nice kill. Skyler |
666?
Sweet ride, but that liscense plate, 666x666? lol it's evil ;)
|
very nice car :)
|
The liscense plate is photoshoped. :D
|
Nice honda and good kill!:D How much did your turbo cost for your car out of curiosity?
Leon |
My turbo setup was expensive because I built it to be able to turn up the boost later down the road. I upgraded things I don't need right now. Like the 550cc injectors, the 255lph fuel pump, the 3" exhaust, the 2.5" intercooler piping, etc.
I think I have about 4000$ canadian dollars right now. If I didnt plan to run more boost later. I could build a similar kit for half that price. |
Looking at your car and knowing what it has, I have a lot of respect for you. Very clean and understated:)
Bump up the psi, should be a blast, I'd like to run more than 5psi myself someday....someday:D |
If more honda guys built 'em like that I would might get along with them! Nice, clean, and fast, I like it.
|
Very nice car and that is not Rice at all. just good work and nice looks

I don't mind losing, or reading of a mustang losing a race. There's always a faster car but starting a thread with-----------
-------------- The rape of a Mustang---------------- automatically puts the author in a "RICER" catagory in my book People with truly fast cars don't need that. As I see it, 13's aren't anything special, nice, but not something to crow about. Just my opinion! Al |

Props for going the understated route... but I'll never think that a Civic is a good looking car. We're going into taste now I know... ;) |

posting/stating/writing that the person "RAPED" a car that they happened to beat in a race automatically puts the author in the "RICER" catagory, in my book It's just as silly as stating that you've got NAWSSSSSSSSS I own an Eclipse GSX as well as my Mustang, so my allegiance isn't colored Ford Blue and being a ricer or a moron isn't limited to import drivers. I actually happen to like the guys car. A "good taste" buildup that makes an economy car into a fairly quick machine. Just my opinion, Al |

I have raped a few stangs myself in my day. I hate to keep it in the family like that but hey what can I do.
|
For fun, look within the family!!:cool:
|
What was that saying?
"Can't keep it in your pants? Keep it in the family!" Oh man, that's sick.:D |
oh come on. That was only a title.
|
Me and my friends even gang banged a mustang once:D
Raped/0wned/spanked etc... If you dont want to be associated with these terms stay outta the rear view mirror. |
Mabey we are getting a little carried away.........:D
|
hahahahahahahaha :D
