it's wasn't a thread or even a conversation I had but a magazine I read. I think it was either super street or import tuner. All in all the guy had an audi tt that he loved and had a friend he said knew how to work on cars, hondas was his choice of car, but honda guy gave audi guy a idea to polish the valves. It was to throw sand down the throttle body and from there it would go through the intake valves, polishing them as they went threw and out the exhaust doing the same thing. he mailed the question in asking what could have gone wrong with motor being that it wouldn't start after he did that. Needless to say the tech responded with a big "i"m not even gonna touch that". LOL

So at this local meet this guy is showing me his talon and telling me he has a bully built motor from slowboy and all this stuff then he stops when the other kid with me walked away and says what does DMS stand for!! i was like wow how did you get to a dsm meet! then we lose him on a cruise and he show up later saying he blew an intercooler pipe and he fixed it with air mattress patch and duct tape! wow! then he goes "ya i know the car pretty well, its my third evo" what a piece of work. I wish my 1g were an evo to




thats great haha
 
Another gem from my step-dad. So my brother's four wheel drive in his S10 isn't working. And the way 80's model S10s actuate the 4wd is there is a rod to a vacuum diaphragm, and the diaphragm either cuts air flow or sucks to actuate the t-case. Well my brother told my step-dad:

Bro: "My 4wd doesn't work."
Step-dad: "It must have a blown fuse."
My uncle who owned the truck since new when my step dad bought it in '08: "There's no fuse it has a vacuum diaphragm to actuate the t-case"
Step-dad: "Are you sure?"

Not a dsmer but this dumb girl I was talking to.

We were talking about condoms and this is what she said:

Her: Yeah condoms aren't 100% because every condom has a hole in the tip.
Me: No i'm pretty sure they're air tight, its a legality thing.
Her: Well all of mine have holes in them so explain that
Me: WTF

I need to stop talking to stupid girls to get laid, I'm guna knock somebody up.
 
I was at an Mcdonalds drive thru... Getting breakfast for the wife before I drop her off to work.I notice the girl in the window hanging half way out to see the car as I came around. As I pull up to the window...

Her: What you got under the hood?

Me: Explaining it's pretty much stock except for the 14b... Intake... Greddy BOV.. Exhaust.

Her: I can hear it when you pulled up " I was going no more then 10mph how can you hear a turbo"

Me: "After looking at my wife smiling" Oh yeah that's nice

Her: You see my car over there " points at a purple RS" It has Vtec and manual it's fast...

Me: I Just slowly pull away

Never use a rubber a girl give you.

I just never use a rubber :thumb:

I don't think the stupid girls part of the equation, is gonna be the cause of you knocking someone up :D

Better make sure they are on birth control, god forbid we have a bunch of pink engined, dsm driving, kids running around ROFL I keed...
 
If I make 60 more hp at 2900lbs how much more wheel hp will that be losing 700lbs

Any weight reduction will increase power to the wheels. The total weight of the car makes the drivetrain loss.. Removeing weight would reduce drivetrain loss which would indeed make more power to the wheels.

:confused:
 
#### that, I rather feel like ####ing a glove then catch something. You can never be too careful.

As long as I never get tested then I'm in the clear, anyways a little red sores never hurt anybody.

All you need to fix that is falcon punch to the stomach :p

Are we like one in the same??

Secret brother?? :pray: LOL
 
Wow, I know exactly how the OP of that thread felt. I was exactly like him when I first got my car. I was completely clueless. Anyway here's some things I've heard, not by DSM'ers, but by other "car enthusiasts":

1. 1 psi = 10 hp regardless of turbo and the setup (this guy supposebly overhauled an engine before :rolleyes: )

2. Taking the cat off and putting a test pipe adds like 30 hp. Ok :rolleyes:

3. I felt a huge difference when I put that k&n filter in. :rolleyes:

4. Aren't the talons a bootleg version of the eclipse? :rolleyes:

5. Do an awd burnout! (on a 195 hp car)

6. Him: Do you have a bov?
Me: yes
Him: howcome i can't hear it?
Me: because it's stock
Him: bov's don't come stock
Me: :rolleyes:

7. My friend's friend's friend's friend has a stage 3 turbo on his talon. :rolleyes:

8. A v6 mustang owner called my car slow and rice. :rolleyes:

9. According to a Civic ex owner: "My car feels more torquey than yours." This was comparing both cars' throttle at 2k rpms.


i like #8 LOL
 
my buddy told me this the other day...
Him: dude I'm buyin a 60 trim
Me: oh yea that's sweet man
Him: yea dude I'm gonna make it whistle so loud
Me: hmmm cool :)
