Saying something is "prety dumb" while making in excess of 10 spelling and punctuation errors in ONE run-on sentence is also pretty dumb.

Since you obviously don't know anything about the car, the swap, or why someone would perform the swap, maybe you should go post in the Lounge. The dumber you are, the more welcome those folks will make you feel.

Lol, I thought the same thing. He and I ran the same mph, was hoping to run into him on the highway on the way home for a little rotary vs. ls1 action. No such luck though.

I think I'm in love... Seems to be only mild mods anyway. I'm trying to not do an LS1/FD swap but I might be forced to soon.

Dont know the torque unfortunatly, Et was 12.6X, 2.3 60 foot(didnt launch so i wouldnt break), running toyo t1r's. My trap was 120.6 i believe.

Maybe the plate was referring to the owner/driver himself, and not the car per se. :-)

iam guessing since u said his car is not that fast... your turbo fc is faster by leaps and bounds?? a 12sec street car is fast wether its a honda or a v8-7.. with a proper tune slicks and maybe some giggle gas, his car is a completely different beast.. all while still being reliable
