I'm pissed that my st is so slow. Some girl in a civic ex was blocking both lanes and acting like an idiot in traffic, i was behind her and she wouldnt move as cars in front pulled away. i decided to go around her. then she decided to get back into the lane. I had a head start and floored it to try and get in front and back into my lane. my she just sped up and didnt let me in. i felt like such an idiot in a loud slow car. then later that night some guy in a old v6 accord did the same thing. i dont think my car has an edge in regular traffic just to pass others and maneuver. ill probably sell her sometime this year after i fix up the gt.

QUOTE(Illyont @ Jun 8, 2005 - 1:32 PM) My last car (94' Nissan Primera, yeah I know..) with it's 2.0 liter SR20De engine(swapped in a 96' engine though, not the stock 94') pushed 125 bhp and that wasn't quicker than my 1.8 liter 7A-FE with 116 bhp.. The difference in torque is probably the reason, along with the ability to get the horses down to the wheels, and to the ground. Hey dude we hade the same Previous car. I also had a Nissan Primera before my GT. I got rid of it as soon as i saw my celi came on sale Online!. But the 2.0 engine wasnt al that bad. But because its weight and modest HP for a 16v 2.0 liter its not that fast. But i got 215 km/h with it

But i got 215 km/h with it [right][snapback]297231[/snapback][/right] You should try to drive a turbocharged 4wd Primera GT  Damn that thing was fast.. I was actually thinking of swapping my engine with a turboed GT engine, but decided to swap in a stock 96' instead and sell the car to buy a 99' Civic Coupe Si (1.6 liter DOHC VTEC with 170~bhp.. As already stated in some other thread the seller just disapeared and I never got to buy the car) Ended up with the Celi and I'm kinda happy now The Civic would have pwned the Celi bigtime, but the Celi is sexy
