sounded like it was rattling from the inside out. 3 people in his car.

im guessing an EG Hatch was the civic. I dont know my Hondas models too well.


kept revving and pacing me.

so I revved and he stopped for a second. and did it again. Dropped a gear. he punched it. Then I did.


And bus lengths commenced.

Sorry but why would you race with 3 people in a hatch back? sorry no vid.

He wanted to see what the gen coupe could do. Probably thought you were a stock 2.0T???? and maybe there was a chance????? lol.

i heard a genesis in traffic while i was in my beater getting on it, sounded good

reign1

if it was the 2.0T he might have pulled it. lol

but not my 3.8

love the sound of the BOV and straight pipes on the 2.0T

But thegrumble and sound of my 3.8 is unlike any other car.

needs to be louder tho.

I race stuff I'm pretty sure I won't be able to beat just so I can see just how fast it really is. I've had the opportunity to egg on a Ferrari once and Porsche GT3. The GT3 was modded and it put trains and trains and trains and a few more trains on me. It was spectacular, worth every second of being beat down.

Thats true. I always try to race Audi R8's when I see them because they sound like sex. lol.

I was expecting another $2000 gutted honda thread.. i am dissapoint.

reign1

I could have tried to egg on a bugatti veryon one time....but:

1) My jaw was to the floor as it flew from the on ramp onto the highway(man that thing is beautiful in the wild)

2) when I caught up....in my mind he had put not just trains but airline miles on me in my head to so i just did the fast and the furious no look driving lol

u might b surprised. mayb they would know we just wanna hear that engine and give it to us. lol

R8 drivers are usually cool to rev and **** around

alerosaint

I didnt own my SS then, I was driving my s4 that day

OzzyruleZ

Actually I believe it could happen. The GT3 actually started messing with me first, got beside me and started revving. I knew it was going to be a slaughter but like I said I have this fascination with seeing just how fast a car is.

BoostedBeaner

Trains! Lol new term to me sorry but I'd be the same way

Kahless

i do that too just to see if theyll let me hear em. i goaded a ferrari 550m into a race in austin once while i was in my f350. sounded magnificent.

OzzyruleZ

lol I'm not sure if its a legit racing term but buses did not begin to describe the distance that car put between us

Yeah the Ferrari I ran sounded awesome as hell too. They definitely have a very unique sound. It was totally worth getting destroyed to hear it and watch it go.

I want to know too, and put up pictures! I've been drooling over the Hyundai Genesis for a while now

cobalttech

just watch out dude, i know theres a couple hondas around here that have a crap load done to them and they take off like a **** except one of them doesnt know what he's doing....he pulled on me but not before i started seeing a ton of smoke start coming out of his tailpipe and he quickly took the first offramp he could find lol

nobody2u

How well does the Genesis take to bolt ons? What sort of power are you getting?

cobalttech

well if its anything like the engine in my Z it will respond pretty well to bolt-ons up to a certain point. intake and cat back with a tune will net you around 20 to 30whp on the Z's 3.7 engine which puts it a little over 300whp to the wheels, the only things i havent seen tested are stillen headers and JUN exhaust cams...stillen claims about 10whp gain on headers and JUN claims around 15whp gain on their exhaust cams which theoretically would put the Z whp at around 330 to 340whp. the only further gains that could possibly be made on the Z 3.7 engine is someone finally figuring out how to unlock VVEL which is nissans version of VTEC on the intake cams.
