Good, finally some sweet answers that make sense and don't insult me too much.

FWD - Well, yea I started cars cuz of FnF but I'm so much beyond that. My home mechanic skills has landed me a 48hr week full-time job where I just work on mini-vans and make money, lol. To my point, I want to take FWD to it's limits. I have a notebook, FILLED with parts lists, "Staged Upgrades" rotating from engine, trans, interior, sound, exterior, and what not. Also included is prices for engine boring, honing, port and polish work, and estimated money amounts at certain stages.

I have an idea of what I'm doing. I ask ALOT of questions, cuz when it gets down to the money, the work, and the down time of my ride, I want to do it once, and do it right the FIRST and ONLY time!

If and is (question and statement) 11 sec in FWD streetable? I don't want to have to have a racing only clutch or need racing slicks just to drive the 2miles to work everyday. Yeah, granted I can change parts out and what not, I think it's better to know your car goes 11sec in the 1/4 whenever you want it. Esp. when that Viper or that kid thats dating your ex-g/f pulls up next to you in his Mustang V8 supercharged (bought by his parents of course) and you wanna just fucking smoke HIM! (i have anger issues)

Anyways...

I know what I'm into. Since FnF I have been digging a hole (hopefully to the homeland to steal a GT-R V-spec ii) but I know about the costs of mods, repairs, and everything. I'm next to stock, cuz my BOV runs rich, and I'm doing the GM MAF/MAF-T thing soon. I don't even have exhaust. I have more money put into my dashboard and a-pillar than anywhere else on my car, lol. I'm kinda reserved though, relying on my driving skills and stock turbo (i can smoke any ricer, even 6cyls cuz they dont know what they're doing) rather than throwing fart-cans, shiny engine parts, short-shifters and the like and NOT knowing how to use them. I can out-shift most people around me, and I have the stock yard-stick that I'm shifting with.

The job, the money, the time, the tools, are all coming together now. I just wanna do this and do it all right. I want all your guys' help, and minimize the insults and harsh lessons.

And to close it off, I am gonna go all-out to the limits of being a streetable GS-T. If the end is only 12secs, so be it, it's more or less the experience, joy, pride, and satisfaction that I do what I do, instead of half-assing it all together, paying someone else to work on my car, or ditching my ride for a better one. (5 months on jackstands, $1000 worth of parts to make it move, sat for 2yrs in NE weather)

Thanks, Nick
