That GTO looks great. The rims and taking off the wing really set it off. The color is pretty dang nice too.

My friend has an 05 GTO with the 6.0 and a 6spd. Hes got intake, full exhaust, chip, gears, pulleys, and some nos... And i think some other stuff. Idk... Id just expect it to be a whole lot faster than it is.

Idk, im not into performance... If it cant do a hair trick, it really doesnt interest me much. But thats a sweet ride nonetheless. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

NOS is cheating because it adds power on the push of a button. Your motor doesn't naturally drive that power. So in a sense, it's cheating. But yes, I'd drive your car all day everyday.

Push of a button or not, power is power. If it was cheating they would not have pro nitrous drag classes.

I did it cuz I did not want to go with FI, I wanted to stay NA. Though at the same time NA I am limited, therefor I added nitrous. Even still NA my car is nothing to laugh at...

Who said I was laughing at your car?

I guess I took what you said the wrong way.

**** thats is a nice gto man. ive got a 69 chevy truck with a 350, turbo 350 AUTO ***** lol and im planning on adding a 125 shot of nitrous. once again love the gto and i agree nitrous is no where near being considered "cheating"

Its a rather nice GTO you got there.

And honestly, its the abundance of ignorance on this site which generally holds back most of my replies. Most of the time, I just don't feel like arguing points that any competant car guy would know. Whether its the guy complaining about autos, the one that says nitrous is cheating, etc, etc, its all just proof that certain people should never be allowed to modify a vehicle.

What the..?? Nitrous = cheating? Are you retarded man? I'm a little late on bashing him, but he knows absolutely nothing about performance does he? It is just another big power adder. Are you gonna say turbocharging or supercharging a car that doesnt come that way stock is cheating too? Jesus...

And for any import haters... my buddy in my club (hence the sig banner lol) just got his Honda S2000 back from the shop. Turbo kit was just installed. Approx. 360 RWHP and 230 torque at 10 psi. This summer all he is adding is a head gasket and boost controller and upping the boost to approx 16-18 psi and it'll be around 500 hp and 300 torque //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Beastly little 4 cylinder... now he just needs some drag radials to even MOVE. lol we already installed a competition clutch and reinforced diff with new gears in it.

Automatics ****. And FYI, automatics are only better for drag racing for people who can't lauch/ shift. Either you are really dumb or you just have a poor excuse for buying an automatic...stick with the daily driver story

Any really fast drag car is going to be an auto for reliability. Sticks are fun to drive but one bad missed shift and you could bend valves, crack your crank or break rods. Having a turbo and a stick equals lost boost between shifts. If your a road racer, your going to want a stick.

He's saying nitrous is cheating because he obviously has love for old school all motor muscle like a lot of people. There was nothing more pleasing than beating someone who had nitrous w/ my all motor car. Especially when the car popped and sputtered because he did not tune it correctly for nitrous. Would I use nitrous today, yes but I prefer not to. I did not see where he was bashing or laughing at his car.

Nice looking car by the way. You did a great job on the clean looking motor.

Uh there is a HUGE difference between going FI and adding NOS. Oh and apparently, I'm "retarded" because I have an opinion. Then that makes everyone retarded, now doesn't it?

FI isn't cheating. It is REAL power. NOS is cheating because it temporarily adds power. Stock my car is around ~180whp, with 50shot it makes around 232whp. Do I give a **** that it makes more power? No. I'll race him any day. Don't care.

Nos is gay. By the time someone spends money for the system and gets the bottles filled, EASILY could have gotten REAL mods; ECU reflash, nice catback, coilovers, bits and pieces of a turbo/sc kit

Besides, who doesn't love beating cars with NOS when they are just NA?

Wrong, this is not some ****ing video game, you don't just plug nitrous in to the car and hit "go".

Any type of forced induction should be considered cheating then right, you just adding more air into the engine with the help of an extra non stock machine.

You ricers are nuts.

spoken like a true ricer
By the way, I think he has the exhaust already done, by uuuhhh I don't know, the look of the headers under the hood.... Ehh maybe? Coil overs? Why the stance he has now is *****in.

I would love to see your honda all motor beat his goat on the juice, hell even off the juice.

FYI the all the car needs is heads and an aftermarket/ported TB. It pretty much has everything else for NA.

Mod list is...

Motor/Exhaust- Custom Cam | Comp 921 spring kit | Comp hardened pushrods | Stainless Works LT's custom coated | deleted cats | Magnaflow catback | Volant CAI | FAST LSX intake manifold | Meziere electric water pump | 180 t-stat

Nitrous- Nos LS2 plate kit | NOS window switch | TNT Purge system | NX bottle heater | NOS bottle opener | SCSS custom pod/guages

Suspension- Pedders front/rear springs | Hotchkis adjustable swaybars | Pedders front radius rod bushings | Noltec rear x-memeber bushings | Noltec rear diff insert | BMR drag bags (pretty much everything major but struts/shocks)

Drivetrain- Yank SS 3600 | B&M ***** cooler | TransGo shift kit | New ***** is on it's way

Misc- LPE fuel pump | NGK TR6's | Dyno/Street tune

That's what I can remember ATM.

Thanks for all the nice comments, I've worked my *** off for this car these last 3 years.

Oh yes, I am a ricer with a completely stock Si. Yes, you are the know-it-all.

Here is my car. Tell me how it is rice.

Now I will sit and wait for you to bash my completely stock car.

Oh and I don't know but maybe, just maybe the fact that I have a K20Z3 and you are comparing it to his LS1.

197hp vs 400hp

132ft-lb vs 400ft-lb

I already have stated he can **** me, I never once bashed his GTO. All you have done have is bash me for not bashing someone who you thought I was bashing? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif
