ok so i was on my way to pick up my brother from work 2day in my 94 talon and i pull up to a stop light and a kid in a cougar pulls up on the side of me and revs his car. it was a late 90s model any way so the light turns green and he floors it so im like hay why not so i do the same. im in first gear and i mash it into 2nd and back on the gas and the tires spin/hop :D should i be able to do that in a N/A talon it is a 4g63 and i have a 2.5 exhaust that i fabricated myself and the snorkel off the air can thats it. by the way my suspension is bran new i just replace everything like 3 months ago. i do not street race nor do i support it, it was a spur of the moment thing so no bs about how im retarded for racing someone. i just figured id let u guys kno that my car seems kind of beast for a 2.0 N/A:hellyeah:
 
Yeah the N/T engines are pretty beast but from a dig the FWD setup ain't the best. Not saying it will never hook but it is def harder to do so. The screeching and smoking is fun but won't win you any races anytime soon...

Nice ride you got there though. Looks pretty clean. What do you have done to it/What are your plans for it?
 
thanks man it is clean bsides where some b!tch with out insurance dented my bumper :cry: and its almost stock bsides the exhaust and snorkel delete and idk i was thinking about putting a turbo on her but idk to much work and $ and no dsmers around to help out if i need it LOL but yea i think its faster then my 06 grand prix that i use to own. and i kno fwd's dont hook up well but sh!t going into 2nd is kinda crazzzzzy for a 110 hp car or how ever much a 170,000 mile car would have
 
Yeah I know what you mean. Imagine this one, my other car is a 91 Honda Accord with nearly 300,000 miles on it. That had about 110 HP when it was new. My TSi has roughly 300 HP with 150,000 on it. You can imagine how different it is to drive the two of them. Plus the AWD launch of the TSi is insane!!
 
Sorry...Lost interest at the "Hay why not?" comment.

That's how videos like the one in the thread I just started get made.
 
yeah to bad u weren't there with a camera to film me not crashing d!ck! and i don't go to parking lots and drive around in circles and i don't try to drift my fwd talon
 
>;P That's what you get when you post anything relative to street racing in a forum that's against it.

Just saying.

To answer your question : Any good running N/A 4G63 can break loose in 2nd.
 
if u would of kept reading u wold have seen "i do not street race nor do i support it, it was a spur of the moment thing so no bs about how im retarded for racing someone" and getting my car up to 60 in a 55 is considered street racing wow didn't know that 1 but thanks for the info about the good running 4g63 thing
 
Racing = Anything where you're attempting to beat an opponent in a contest of speed/distance.

Shrug it off, you'll get burrs. Prepare to get a lot of little assholeish remarks like that from some of us. No hurt feelings intended. ^^

I have to say, you really sound like an absolute nut-swinger. Beam down to reality, guy. Young men, from time-to-time, are going to fail at defeating common-sense sometimes and react with a race. I'm 28, and still can't always beat the urge every now & again. This site used to not care about street-racing at all. It was full of talk and videos of it.

Yes, Chris says it's a no-no; that's fine. But get off it a bit. I don't care what you say, I KNOW you've at least went WOT through a few gears or raced someone on the street. And if you were WOT on the street, it's just only not as bad as a race because there's not two people doing it. Either way...

And if you're going tell me about how you can walk on water, what's your best E.T./MPH? What road-course or auto-cross class do you do?
 
Congrats on having a little fun in the DSM, it looks pretty good.

Just to poke fun at you, 1.6L honda's can spin them going into 2nd. Have to love FWD :p

HAHA thank you for saying what everyone was thinking! My pos fwd spins all the way through 3rd at wot even slightly in 4th. On a cold day in the rain I floored it in 4th to see what would happen, spun and spun in 5th :barf:. Gets annoying not having traction.
 
my '73 bmw 2002 tii would chirp second gear and that has like 60hp. that car was so beast i didnt even know until now
 
U guys are fvcked in the head I wanted to kno if it was comon to b able to spin the tires in 2nd gear and it turns into bashing and sh!t talking sry my first 5spd! And my automatic 2006 grand prix couldn't spin the tires going into second and it had 250hp to the front wheels so I didn't think my little dsm would b able to with half the power! Last post from me on tuners

Yes its normal, or your tires are going bald. Every car is different weight is also an issue.

No one was trying to bash you, most of them were kidding.
 
ANY manual car can grab second. Im really getting the ricer vibe from this thread. Sorry guy your going to get flamed talking about street racing a stock n/t.

Wait its not locked yet? Mods are slackin.
