Discuss amongst yourselves...

 

you obviously forgot that for each sticker on your hood it shaves 3 tenths off your 1/4 mile time..............GEEZ WHAT KIND OF GEAR HEAD ARE YOU???

 

Crap, I always forget about the sticker mod! I like how he did it on high boost (22psi)

 

oh and the salvage title takes at least another full second of his 1/4 mile time as well

 

151mph!!!LOL I hope that's a typo Maybe he meant 115mph More believable

 

"... it wasnt bad at all, just broke one of the headlights, cracked the front bumper and pushed down the hood. Airbags did go off. It didnt however do any damage to the frame or suspension, just the body panels. Only part that I didnt replace with new parts was the radiator support, it wasnt too bad, so i just bent it back into place. So car does have a salvage title ..."

Yeah .. I don't think that would be cause for a salvage title.

 

Can't blame the guy for selling his car for a good cause, though.

 

No, here is his response to my questioning his MPH:

Here is the question I sent to him:
"I think you might want to check the mph on the listing, if you are on the stock Turbo there is no way it was 151 mph."

His response:
"Ive got a stack of about 10 time slips and video in my photobucket, maybe you dont know what you are talking about?"

 

Maybe it is the case, that is still not a reason to lie about a listing.

 

lol what a tool.

 

Well...In calculating the ET it could run about a 11.46 if the car weighed 2900lbs and a good driver. That said if the car is mostly stock interior that would put the weight about 3200lbs and run 11.85. In any case the MPH is way off. Also what track would let you run under 11.49 with out a roll bar at least? I know my local track doesn't. Sounds like a good deal if the car is what it seems to be if you could get it for 15,000$

 

According to the speedworld calculator you would need 860whp (DJ ?) to get a 3200lbs car to run 151mph.

 

Do you really think his wife is in a coma??? If so i will feel bad... But 24k with a salvage title??? thats just nuts!!! He will be lucky for 15-18k on a evo like that... He was probably running the 1/8th mile and didnt know it Poor guy has no clue what he is doing!!! Does anybody know of his tuner??? WRC???

 

He just lost 20MPH. The ad now says 131 MPH...

 

I was trying tell him it was to high, he jsut sent a email that it was 124 to 131. At least he changed it, still the 131 is pretty damn high.
