JAPCRAP
« on: 26 April 2008, 05:47 »
The wifes best best mates new boyriend (a bit eastenders i know) was gobbing off last night. i kept my own mildly reserved council for once, he's got a civic type r, i've got an 89 mk2 gti thats got a load of poke. we've not had a ride yet but after he kept going on about his car i asked him to come and see me when his is 19 years old and have a little run together.

Might not beat him for accelerartion but will look a hell of lot cooler doing it slower!!

I personally think he will piss all over you if you not running decent power.. i personally love the civic type-r and my friend had the first type-r turbo conversion in the uk which was made by prism in london and was incredible!!!

Have no probs with him beating me and personally think the type r is a piece of ninja level engineering.

ninja level engineering! love it

i had a tussle with a type r on track. luckily it was very twisty with no long straights so we were at an advantage. also our car's worth about 50p!!  its not all about how fast the car is!

i do love type r's though, awesome to drive

exactly - he makes no claim to beating it just looking cooler. and the fact the typr r will probably have been scrappped in 19 years time!

Love live vw

much rather have my golf than a honda type r.

My dad has a Jazz thats pretty funky with its paddle shifters.

so what if its fast, its not as cool, you dont see Type R drivers waving and flashing at each other, if i had one i'd sell it and buy a golf.
