and finally i havent really seen one mod thats gonna decrease the performance of the car...............have you....
didnt think so so what is the point of posting?
i think somone is jealous
I'm not hating. I simply don't see the point of modifying a car before learning what it can do stock. Especially a car like the EVO whose limits are already a lot higher than those of just about all it's drivers. if the car's limits are higher than yours, there's no reason to raise them. Also, the car is setup so well from the factory, modifying it could make it worse. All the parts in the world mean nothing if they aren't setup right, and if the driver doesn't know how to use them.

if you don't have a baseline, how do you know if what you're doing is actually improving the car?

EDIT..btw the 1.86 sixty foot in your sig isnt very impressive so id say you need to keep learning haha
The reason i got the COP was because my stock coils were going bad, and the COP system was barely more expensive than the stock units, but a lot better for the car. That was something the car needed, and it doesn't change the characteristics of the car drastically if at all. the mods she's doing will turn this car into a completely different animal when she never knew the original animal in the first place.

i'm not hating. i just don't see the point, that's all. i think her car will be totally badass when she's done with it. i just hope she makes use of all the stuff she's doing.

as for my driving, that 60' time sucked because I was on overinflated tires, cold track, and no way around the water box. still managed to pull a 12.82 @ 107.41mph in basically a bone stock EVO. I'd say I did a pretty good job. What time did you run stock?

also, i think the stack of 1st place autocross, and road course event trophies in my room say my driving is just fine

to the OP, sorry if you misunderstood my comments and took them as hate. i meant no disrespect. good luck with the build. just make sure you don't let all those parts go to waste. drive it like you stole it.

No need to apologize like I said before this is not the first "modified" car that I've owned. And if you think a stock evo is "a lot higher than those of just about all it's drivers" you need to get out more..

With that said.. I have this under control.

i'm not talking about daily driving. anyone can drive this thing on the street. i'm talking about racing the car at your limits on a track. i seriously doubt you can come anywhere close to that car's full potential after owning it for a few weeks. anyone who says they can is delusional, and need an ego check.

Hey bro i doubt that thing is going on a time attack track. Seems like you just wish you had her money to do what she is doing or you wish you had it at one time.

that's the part I don't get. what's the point of modding it so heavily if you're not even going to use it? you don't need a fully built suspension, and motor to go to the movies lol

it's pathetic how I can't ask the OP a question about why she's modding the way she is without all the leg humpers getting offended and trying to attack me.

i just don't get the point of owning a car like the EVO and NOT taking it to the track. why didn't you just buy a civic?

I have been reading this thread for a bit now and I keep seeing you post your opinion rather than a question. It's pretty obvious, she's addressed her answer the way she sees fit. If you can't read between the lines and keep asking the same questions, then it becomes more annoying, than a sincere question. You are a die hard enthusiast. That's great, but again, that's your opinion on the matter. A leg humper... Now that's pretty funny, but to say guys (no bearing on sex) are on here, seems pretty ridiculous.

To be quite honest, the real reason I wanted to comment was due to your statement:
"I just don't get the point of owning a car like the EVO and NOT taking it to the track. why didn't you just buy a civic?"

why doesn't 99% of the auto owning population go buy a civic, because they don't have to that's why.. I mean seriously dude. That's like saying a anyone who doesn't take their Z1, Viper, Lambo, Ferrari, Exige, C2 or any other supercar to the track, they should just drive a civic... That's where your personal opinions truly shine through. How bout we let a fellow enthusiast have her fun and be happy for her.

So our reason has to match to your "ideal" reason for purchasing a particular type of vehicle? What's your number so you can approve my next vehicle purchase. Unless you are paying for my next car, who are you to judge one on how they use their car let alone what type to buy.

ill do one better also.... for such a die hard enthusiast you have had your car for 146 thousand miles!!!
and your only running a 12.8?! with a 1.86 60ft?!?
maybe you should check your modding and ask y u got a stock intercooler to replace your stock intercooler after you got in the accident.. dont get it who that is modding their car would do that..
oh wait cause thats your preference right? thats what u wanted to do right? ok enough said..
so who are u to question others mods.. not all people build cars to race them.. not all people buy coilovers and bad *** rims to go and track the car... people dont have the same preferences so ridiculing one for not OWNING THE CAR LONG ENOUGH TO MOD IT!!!! is just utterly ridiculous!!
you my friend need to check yourself and think before you post things.. its pretty obvious your young cause u think you know all.. just respect others and what they want to do WITH THEIR THINGS...
nobody is leg humping anyone people are just pointing out ur jealousy and imaturity... i appreciatte what people do male or female... learn to do the same.. stop hatin.. this is retarded im done
Honey keep up the good work.. we enjoy it minus a few!
