check this out!v6

last night driveing my girl home there was this indian guy with driveing this done up integra with vteck written all over it. i am in the far laft lane and he is in the far right lane and a car between us and in front. i try to get in in the middle lane so i speed up and he floors it. so then we reach a light both in front, and it hits green he floors it again. so i decide to give it a try and i slam on the gas. i passed him with no prob. but my car went faster then i ever seen be 4 the rpm went to the red line. is that normal, but this was the first time i ever put it to the floor because most of the time when i do it it floods and smells bad so i just gave up on it. Now that just shows that he is how can my car beat a vteck? I HATE PEOPLE LIKE THAT!

You've got a carbed 2.8?? Oh wow....no offense man, but if he couldn't pass you then his grandma must've been the one who taught him to drive.. Don't you love cooking rice?

BTW-I'm assuming it's carbed because of the flood part and from your name, but your car doesn't look that old at all! It looks GREAT! I've NEVER seen those rims before..those are awesome...

those rims look like the ole' turbo fin styled. The front end and rear end most liekly are 85+ trans am clips, no big issue, and i believe that yo uposted something a while ago about geting the car painted....looks good to say the least. Good kill, and good luck. Not sure how odd it is to get a gas smell from the car like that when flooring it, or when yours normally shifts. My auto will normally hit second gear as soon as the engine is at the redline, sometime a little befor ethough, and sometimes a little after. Just kinda depends on how the car's feeling.
