:o

(in homer simpson's voice)

mmmm.....tuuuurrrrbbo

:lol:

[notquiteahoe]

Probesports car is effin badaazzz. mmmmm, PRD.

lets see a $1000....stage 2 morvana(sp?) heads(heads are hella restrictive on my engine), DXD 6 puck clutch....yup a $1000.

[jasonslyric00]

Shiiiiit...

Dream car : I'm gonna take the Evo VII Xtreme SC...458hp to start...increase the boost to push 500hp and I'll just spend the $1000.00 on dinner and the rest on a couple bets...2quickforu, Cobra50, John02Hawk...DEFINITELY the dude in that 350Z...
I can think of a MILLION other dream cars that I'd love to throw a grand into, but that'll do for now.

[95TSiEVO6GSR]

dream car....mr2 turbo...with the money...boost controller, bov, and direct port nitrous baby :thumbup:

[SmokeyTheBear]

/drool over the probe with the klze turbo. i bet that car hauls balls.

my dream car w/ 1k mods. 88-91 5.0 mustang. headers, full exhaust, short throw kit (cuz it has to be a 5 speed) and anything else that is cheap ha ha ha.

or

LT1 TA (that purple gray color) w/ full SLP loudmouth exhaust and headers. yep 1k right there.

IIRC it's not a ZE, just the manifold and valve covers. ZE's dont like boost being 10:1 compression. i believe it runs low to mid 13's last i heard.

[1.9lZ]

whats up the only one of you with origiionality here is jasonslyric00 with his evo.
you can have any car you want.

now me personally i would go with a 98 e36 m3 strip the interior and unnessary engine parts. Then sell the parts on ebay. put my 1k into the suspension and exhaust, throw in a race bucket and i have a car that is ready to dominate in the scca ITE class. that money from e bay can go to race fees and other race prep.


I have a thing for BMW's and that straight 6 is silky smooth

[notquiteahoe]

oh shit, i read the entire thread wrong, i thought it was just add a $1000 to your current car :P

well, i like to think realistically so my dream car is a 90-92 MX-6 GT AWS. spend the $1000 on an FE3(the one with factory turbo). lol, then i would have to save another $1000 for SDS just to get the damn thing to run :lol:

[Maliwho97]

Well fuck man, $1000 in any car won't go very far, what imagination would that do? Hell, in that case I'd take a Lamboghini Mucialago, and put $1000 in gas money.

[5point_Slow]

89 mustang gt 4.88 gears, big cam, slicks, 100 shot, go to the junk yard get gt40p heads and lower intake mainfold of a 99 explorer and cobra/gt40 upper intake mainfold and a 9'' out of an old truck, port and polish kit out of summit. I'd be pre good then :thumbup:

[5point_Slow]

I'll just spend the $1000.00 on dinner and the rest on a couple bets...2quickforu, Cobra50, John02Hawk...DEFINITELY the dude in that 350Z...
OMG i can't believe you put me in there lol. lets see 13 second, 14 second, 12 second. You would have a better run with a stock LT1 lol. Well at least someone thought my car might fast lol.

oh man me too! i totally forgot about that, i used to pimp mom's 92 626, had the spiffy little "power" button, hehe, that thing was quick and shifted really hard for an automatic, i totally would drive a MX-6 (2 door 626) GT (turbo) ^_^ i've always wanted one, my dad's friend has one <_<

[Triepsyn]
