I told one of the kids at work that I was buying a boost controller so I could run more boost. His eyes lit up and he said "YOU HAVE NITROUS?!?!?!"

Well, in that case, the car isnt fresh off the boat but the ex bf is. lol whoever puts a purge kit on an eclipse definately has played too much need for speed underground 2

One day, Soup and I were outside of my house working on his gts4. My neighbor decided to come out and have a conversation with us. He asked us a few dumb questions, but we responded maturely. Then he started telling us how he has a 300zx, only its a single turbo. I asked him if he found some kind of single turbo kit for the N/A 300, seeing as they only came in N/A or twin. He responded with: "No, it came like that". Then he hopped in his beat up Ford Probe and drove away.

Wasn't the previous gen Z (80's - Z31) available in single turbo? Maybe this is what he meant?

I stalled my GTR once at a red light when I was first getting used to driving it. I didn't think it was a big deal but some guy that went to my highschool, who i dont know very well, posted a Facebook status saying that I don't deserve my car. A bunch of other guys were commenting on it saying "she doesn't know **** about her car" etc. I couldn't believe it, none of them know a thing about me. I love my car and I can gaurantee you I know more about it then they do. What's more annoying is the guy who initially posted the status ows a hatchback civic that he basically drove into the ground.

I had an older lady stop and ask me a bunch of questions about my car when I parked at work last week, I thought it was really sweet! The only questions I can see bothering me I when people are being disrespectful or just down right stupid.

I've got a friend like that. She always tells me how she knows so much about cars because her bf has a wrx sti (pretty nice one too). She'll tell me all about how she saw an S15 the other day, and then say "I bet you didn't know I even knew what that was!" I just do the same as you and smile and nod.

You`re getting s*it from others because they`re jealous. Also, you`re a girl, and that doesn`t help. As long as you paid for your own car, then you earned it.

PS. Holy thread revival!

And you don't know what an tweeter-mag is without googling or looking it up and you have a turbo. Not everyone knows everything about car stuff.

I'm an industrial controls electrician and if I said: Most generators operate by the "relative motion of conductors and fluxes where on the other hand, the Retro-Encabulator is said to use the "modial interaction of magneto-reluctance and capacitive directance". I can see the look on your face funny to me.

[cschepp]

Aaaaaaah ya franc I wouldn't know what to say to that except for could you please repeat yourself but in English lol.

[rb26addict]

when people ask if its right hand drive just still makes me laugh to this day

[frankiman]
