thanks. yes it performs as a real wheel car but when the computer detects slip from any of the wheels it goes into all wheel drive.

Nice.. As long as the upgrades don't make the car sound like an eggbeater :)

 

I really hate the sound of most aftermarket exhausts.

yeah i do 2. i picked 5zigen cause it has a nice roar when on the throttle. but when normal driving its a quiet pur.

 

listen below.

Currently, Full Stainless steel racing system (Micron custom exhaust) (6bhp)

 

Power commander power system with a full digital dash, (4bhp)

 

Close ratio, 6speed sequential gearbox,

 

lower ratio final drive, carbon airbox, Flatslide carbs, Lightened pistons, titanium valves, lightened cams (both) slightly lightened flywheel (0.5lb) RamAir, polished, ported and flowed head, Ceramic coated inside of the exhaust manifold (it helps).

 

uprated radiator, and oil cooler as well..

 

removed exhaust "power" valve,

 

rejetted carbs (higher capacity highspeed jets)

 

heavy duty clutch and replaces clutchsprings, valvesprings also upgraded.

 

 

all in all means for a very fast vehicle...

 

pulling around a 3.4second 0-60mph, with a top speed of well over 150mph (i dunno what it is, it goes off the clock at 180kph (bout 120mph)

ok I did a lil more research and I'm going to go with the Stillen full exhaust system which has 23 hp / 23 lbs torque which is 1hp/10lbs better then the 5zigen and 100 bucks cheaper. Boith are all stainless steel construction.

 

its a lil more quiet then the 5zigen exhaust but more gains.

 

listen below.

aye.. i was lookin for some crappy brown station wagon on the dragstrip i saw..

 

just this regular "moms taxi" mobile, pulling a 9second 1/4mile lol

Oh nice mods Impact. Too bad its an Infinity!! :( :)

Now if you went with a Mustang I'd be jealous. :)

Make sure it doesn't sound like a Fart Cannon! Nothing sounds worse than those exhaust systems they put on them Honda's :)

lol i saw this beat up 70's chevy rip apart a new corvette co6. imagine the ego trip the vette driver was feelings. haha
I love pulling up beside some dude in a Honda with the 12 inch tires that are 2 feet wide and the giant pipe exhaust hat sound like a lawn mower and just sail past him silently like he is standing still.

Does Impact's designation pertain to only the game? "Most hated player." Can we add to that? You make me sad, because of your luck, your skillz, your paycheck, your lifestyle, your muscles, your gift with all things technological, your superfast internet, your car, the fact that you have a full head of hair. I think that covers it.

 

I always wanted to "tune" my car. I didn't want to void the warranty. Well I don't feel like paying for it anymore now, I have not driven it in almost 2 months. Who wants an Acura RSX-typeS, six speed, black, leather interior, six disk cd (bose), sun roof, absolutley no modifications. Completely stock car, original everything, two owners, only 19,900 miles on the odo. 200bhp, 8,200rpm redline. It gets 26~28mpg. Still got 5.5 years on the 7 year warranty, and 50,000 miles left on that same warranty, bumper to bumper. The only downside is it sits in a garage and rarely gets driven. Lets make a deal! Serious inquieries only! Pretty things have lost their allure for me. I could just be having a bad day/week/month/year? Who knows?

I got a 95 300zx twin turbo with a whole bunch of mods. Intake (stillen) Exhaust (Borla SS) ECU (JWT) I also have racing coilover suspension 18 inch wheels with BFG gforce KDW2s, went with a dual core aluminum radiator changed to an electric fan to free up a bit more power....hrm...let see if i can post a pic...

So, by all means :) take the tool time approach as long as it never sounds like a lawnmower.
