ok, without prejudice, a talon can be quicker than a skyline. a skyline can be quicker than a talon..just depends on how it was constructed.

i have seen dsm's in the 9's as i have from the nissan automobiles. neither car has been seen in our shitty town as of yet.

i will not allow myself, no matter how tempting to do so to just come out of the bag and call said green eclipse totally gay. i will however say that my personal preference, and the preference of joe, chris, and dave is to build a tasteful vehicle that is very functional and useable. the definition of battle spec is that the car can be used in automotive "battle" such as mountain, drag and circuit racing.

that said, from what i can see, the narrow wheels, large kit and bold graphics seem to be mods that would allow it to compete perhaps in a parking lot show, but perhaps not while the car is in action.

rather than criticize mr. loco, i will only say that you have been handed a blank canvas. you can paint what ever picture you want. if you're happy with your art, fine. my art kicks your art's ass outta the gift shop.

I think it's funny how the comment was raised that apparntly denounces any Skyline that's not a GTR.

Hmm... 2.5L Inline 6 turbo, and simply because it's not a GTR, it's not a contender for serious power potential?

Yet, a 2.0L 4 banger will EASILY smoke the RB25DET because it's in a Talon, and is the top motor.

Then, we have beyonds shaddiest (sp) salesman (Z24_3.1) chime in with his piece of intillectual genius, and then all hell breaks loose following it.

The logic of some people simply astounds me.

Just giving as good as I get... apparently since my Talon is an ESi its not a contender for serious power potential, even though the one guy to make any effort at making this car fast ran low 10s and has gone into the 9s in a street driven Neon with the same motor :dunno: and I never said any talon would beat whatever skyline, either.

Fact of the matter is, one car was JDM and the other was a DSM... and we all know that the JDM car is always better and the DSM is always worse :nut: Some people might actually evaluate the cars on their individual merits, but no matter how mature a small few people might be, the rest are all idiots. The entire argument stemmed from that and then got a hefty dose of high school.

fact of the matter is you are against jdm cars as much as we are against dsm...its a never ending war... just like evan said. a talon can beat a skyline and vise versa. that thing that pissed me off is you were rulling out all skylines if it wasnt a GTR...what kinda shit is that?? that is where you get people saying how much bigger their dinks are then one another... when i see a tasteful talon done up i will give it props. mr.loco's does not float my boat. each to their own.enough said...:drama:

Damn my thread was closed fast lol. I leave to go to town..2 posts...I come back 34 posts and thread closed.

Any car can beat any other car if its built right.

I have seen a gremlin run 9's...and daytonas run 11's...and dsm's run 10's as well as super fast supras and skylines run 10's....and I know there are faster.. Dont know of any in Lethbridge that are driving yet...but projects are underway...

O are they ever.....would be nice to have a ****ing heated garage though.

That beign said...does anyone actually know what laser im talking about? The car looked like a 13 second ripper.......

Ok, lets all just relax her.

First off since when was everything said on the internet taken so extremly serios??? Sencondly I never said that I hate dsm, skylines ect ect ect, I have a love for alot of fine automobiles and have alot of respect for ppl who push the envolpe in their choice of mobile but I am sorry mr.loco's car is not a fine automobile, that thing is a fucking pile of shit and its beyond me why anyone would ever do something like that and then consider them self in the same catagory as someone who has taken the time to do things right and pays attention to detail never mind go around posting pictures of it all over the internet, and seriosly if you did do that how can u expect not to get flamed for doing it. I dont care if you take a shit in your engine compartment and then call that a mod fuck thats fine with me but pls dont go around town acting like your hot shit and calling ppl out on the internet acting like your cool. Also wtf is with all the shit that "i am swinging from chris's nuts" so just because me and someone else have the same opinion and i defend that opinion automaticly i am sucking his dick.


Its fun to talk shit on the internet but sometimes it just goes to far and I think the winter seasion is already getting to us all alittle bit not being able to drive their units of choice, hahaha now u all know how i feel year round sitting on the sidelines. Basicly everyone just needs to step back take a moment to think and then get back in the garage so that you can stay ahead of everyone else in whatever it is you want to excel in and rember theirs always goin to be haters no matter what.

:poosie: Cheers to summer fun, it'll be here before you know it!!

Lets have a little lesson on the internet:
1. On the internet, every one is gay except you so always asume this.
2. Say what ever you want, there is no reprocusions for it because hell, your the toughest guy there.
3. You have what you say you have no matter what it is. Be it a 6second car or a turbo made from spare blender parts.
4. You are cool, plain and simple.
5. Because you are sooo cool every one is going to hate you becasue they are jelous.
6. Porn porn and more porn

All in all I really wish the whole "F&F talon being gay" issue would be dropped. I think from all the posts and closed threads its pretty clear who thinks what and why. Everybodies opinions on it have been pretty black and white. Evans post was very tastefully done and I think we need to leave it at that.

ok this is the way i see things..

I DID NOT BUY THIS CAR TO IMPRESS ANYBODY ON HERE OR LETHBRIDGE. I HAVE A THREE YEAR OLD SON AND WHEN HE FIRST SAW THIS CAR HE WAS THE HAPPIEST KID IN THE WORLD. I BOUGHT HIM A MODEL OF THE CAR BEFORE I BROUGHT IT FROM FLORIDA, EVERY TIME WE TAKE MY EXPLORER HE STARTS CRYIN ASKIN TO GO IN THE OTHER CAR. WHEN WE DRIVE AROUND TOWN I ALWAYS CRUISE AND DONT DRIVE IT LIKE I STOLE IT, CUZ HAVE A KID IN THE BACK. THIS CAR IS ONLY FOR SHOW YES I LIKE MAKING THE BOV GO OFF THATS ABOUT IT . SO IM SORRY IF I OFFENED YOU BY BUYING THIS CAR.

i dont think my car is fast, i dont think my car is the best car in the world. i like it and my friends like it and thats all that matters.

im sure you have a nice skyline, and im sure its fast more props to ya but pleease dont go around sayin dsm suck, only because u hate my car. i only had this car for a bout a few months so im not attached, im open minded, last time i checked there was 4-5 dsm on albertas fastest cars. and no 1 was a dsm he calls himself the one i think.

i will be at the next "meeting" at convergys where ever so you can see for yourself the craftsmanship they did on this car besides the engine and i wouldnt mind checking out your cars as well dave,jo and chris and everyother lethbridge guys

Exactly....

Unfortunately, because this is the internet, no one can keep anything to themselves if they have nothing nice to say.

No offense to anyone on here, but say your peace like an adult and move on...
