Need For Speed Shift

[Wile E]

What are the odds, my cousin just picked up a 240sx that supposedly is putting out 450hp, now is that flywheel or wheel, I'm not sure, either way I still doubt it's putting out that much. I have seen it when it was for sale and it was a sharp looking car, but 450hp through a SR20DET for the street, thats not the easiest to accomplish.



Thats because they are But from what I have heard you didn't really switch to rice, rice is the mindset of looks before performance. Thinking that that park bench and fart cannon will net you speed, or thinking that removing your hubcaps to make it look like you have black rims is cool. So most of those ricers do a good job making people feel they are slow when your not going for looks off the bat.

Also talking about swaps and such, why not the 03 Cobra in a Focus, flat out wicked and no need to cut a tunnel for a driveshaft, prob gotta trim some firewall though. Also around here, Mustangs are practically rice, see too many with shit cans and huge spoilers, and then you realize... thats a 2.3l four popper :shadedshu

450 out of an SR20 isn't that hard at all. Need to build the bottom end, but everything else is pretty much at the bolt-on level to get that far.

And no, I don't focus on looks at all. If it doesn't make the car perform better, I'm not interested.

As far as the Focus, I'd rather do the fox body, as it need no modification at all to bolt up the 03 Cobra's rear suspension. The focus needs some reworking. Aka: I'm just looking at it from an ease of upgrade standpoint.

I like people to know the rape is coming. I just installed some SLP "loud mouths"

My pony is identical to this.....

I prefer to let them know they lost by letting them read my license plate. And my car would likely be just as loud under full throttle, but not because I chose loud mufflers, but because 1000hp is difficult to NOT make loud.

you got to be kidding right?

I wish. i imagine your qpi is better than my fsb. and i run at 1920x1200 so a few more pixels.

FSB is at 1423.

Uh? 1993 to date: Jaguar XJ220, McLaren F1 LM, Koenigsegg CCR, Buggatti Veyron, SSC Ultimate Aero. No one keeps official record of "fastest street-legal car" namely because it varies by country. A car might be able to get papers in the United Kingdom for instance that doesn't qualify in USA (specifically, EPA regulations). Moreover, every state in the USA has the authority to set its own restrictions.

This was in the US, obviously, and each state may have its own restrictions, but if you have tags for that state, you can drive it anywhere in the US, and not have to follow by that state's functions in terms of the cars functionality. Some states, like missouri, have their own inspections per year that you have to pay for on a car.

Also, the celica I mentioned before, got a 6.2 in the quarter mile. That is 2 or more seconds faster than any of the cars you mentioned, correct me if im wrong.

yes, the SR20DET is one of the best engines to take an enormous boost. Civic engines are pretty well known for high boost also. My 3000GTs 6g72 should be fun when i get around to putting a turbo in it.

If it pulled a 6.2 in the quarter, it was a Street car only in name. Pro Stock cars don't do that, and they have gigantic slicks and tube frames.

Let me see if I can find the issue. Mind you, I read this back in '06.

I'm just saying, at that kind of ET, it was a street car only by technicality. It wasn't actually streetable.

 

[3870x2]

You are right. It was 6.65, but at the time it pulled that, it was not fitted legally. Ive never driven a celica, and dont know much about them, do they come in 6 cylinder flavor, or just 4?

Just 4.

im driving on PRO and manual, with a controller, and it is very, very fun. I had to put it on easy to get used to it, but this is really fun. I liked the game before, but now it is really great. Do yourself a favor and take the assists off.

And yet you mess with rice. It makes no sense. Anyway what do you drive daily thats 1000hp? Also what the hell is this noise about a 6 second street legal. BS! Anyway admit you love the sound of a V8! ADMIT AND REPENT!

A V8 does sound absolutly amazing. But i love the sound of the sl 65 amg black.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xonn3UFaqgU

None of the cars I mentioned have fatties on the rear and they pull those numbers straight from the factory without N20.

Oh I know they can do it, but a built bottom end and selling the car on an open market to people like my cousin who like cars, but don't turn wrenches, I'm assuming it's a bit more tame, especially on the street 450hp through a 2.0 is going to require some octane.

But I got to agree sleepers were fun, I loved my SHO's, too bad they eat diffs for breakfast. If my car didn't have that damn hood it wouldn't get noticed as much and would be more fun, also a bit too loud.

Nah, 450 thru a 2.0 only need 91 octane. I get 93 around here anyway tho.

Never!!!! lol I do miss the Ford SB rumble sometimes, but I don't miss the total lack of stealth or the fuel economy. lol.

And 1000Hp was a hypothetical. I was just implying that I want my car to be loud because of ridiculous amounts of horsepower instead of an exhaust designed to be loud.

The Veyron gets 10.2 in the quarter, and (correct me if im wrong) it is the fastest production car ever made.

It used to be the fastest. Not anymore. America took that title back a few years ago

I know what you mean about the 1000hp. My car was loud before. I used to have a Borla setup on it. Now I just have the headers. I got the SLP to annoy a neighbor of mine. I set off her car alarm ever morning. I need to figure out how to rig a boat horn up to the exhaust and I would be happy.

Also you should look closer at the 4.6 mod. again man. I get 22 miles to the gallon and she aint even stock anymore.

Wow, thank you, I totally forgot about that.

 

[Hybrid_theory]

Just drove the veyron in game on the full nurburgring in an invitational event. I did quite badly but it was fun. At the start line light goes green and put my foot down, look at the dial and im already at 110 km/h. Right there my face went . I was upset at the straight tho that it maxed out at 310km/h which is nowhere near the 407 top gear took it.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

That's odd. Previous NFS games had a limit of 250 MPH which is about 400 km/h. Lemme guess, you have to upgrade it to reach the top stock speed? Lame.

Well its possible i can tune the final gear to get there. but what u said is probably right. In NFS undercover I maxed the veyron and hit 380km/h. Ah well gt5 is said to have bugatti in it.

A properly tuned 450HP 4 banger can pull down 30mpg driven normally. I'll probably get around 20mpg. As far as the 4.6, I'd be lucky to get 12.

Oh, and exhausts mods like you have done usually increase gas mileage, btw.

In the Veyron, you have to adjust it for it to do it's top speed. You have to disable the wing, and flip a few switches. If the game doesn't allow you to make those adjustments, that's probably why it won't hit 400+ KPH

True. But in the game it went to 310 quick and then stop. like a limiter or something. I think its bad development to realism than actual speed limitations.

Ahhh. I see. Yeah, if it gets to 310 like a bat out of hell, then just stops accelerating, it's probably an artificial limit set by the developers.

I respond to your quote with another quote:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugatti_Veyron#Top_speed

The car's everyday top speed is listed at 350 kilometres per hour (217.5 mph). When the car reaches 220 km/h (136.7 mph), hydraulics lower the car until it has a ground clearance of about 8.9 centimetres (3.5 in). At the same time, the wing and spoiler deploy. This is the "handling mode", in which the wing helps provide 3,425 newtons (770 lbf) of downforce, holding the car to the road.[16] The driver must, using a special key (the "Top Speed Key"), toggle the lock to the left of his seat in order to attain the maximum (average) speed of 408 km/h (253.5 mph). The key functions only when the vehicle is at a stop, when a checklist then establishes whether the car—and its driver—are ready to enable 'top speed' mode. If all systems are go, the rear spoiler retracts, the front air diffusers shut and the ground clearance, normally 12.5 centimetres (4.9 in), drops to 6.5 centimetres (2.6 in).

It would make sense to limit it to 350 km/h because most of the tracks in the game have lots of turns. But, if you limit it to 350 km/h, you'd be better off driving a Koenigsegg CCR.

Ahhh. I see. Yeah, if it gets to 310 like a bat out of hell, then just stops accelerating, it's probably an artificial limit set by the developers.

That's what happened on ProStreet during drags. The Ford GT would be accelerating like a "bat out of hell," hit 250 MPH, and bob the throttle. It does the same on the speed runs. I tried several cars and they all did the same. I think I never even saw 251 MPH.

 

[r9]

In top gear to get to 400 km.h they were running 3-4 min in straight line. I don`t think that in shift exist such truck.
