In response to the pics. I haven't any new pics with my new hood. Therefore I don't like posting older ones. Just like I hate the fact that my tinted tails aren't in those pics

I had a regal 3.8L liked the car, always wanted a GN and kinda like the s/c regals...

Understandable, and we get links like these every once in a while. I felt that this time I had to come in and defend the forum and appologize for some of our members that's all.

I only read the first 3 pages, so I don't know what was said. And sure a civic can corner better and weighs less. The grand prix has its pros and cons too.

I like GTPs, they are WAY WAY better then the 4.0L Olds Aurora in the garage next to my 240. Sucks to drive in anything other then dry pavement. and for being a luxury car no room.

I assume you're talking about the aurora. But the gp was never meant and isn't a luxury car.

As for handling, there's things we do to make our ride handle better (all of which I've done), just like you guys make your cars faster on straights.

I didn't mean to sound mean or like i was arguing with you, i was just presenting a case of one civic. I agree it is good that everyone does something different, it would be boring if we all did the same.

And don't listen to bubba, he has nothing better to do than sit and argue that hondas are the only option.

Thanks. And my comment was addressed to him, not you.

Wow, way to handle the civil arguement I presented. I never said "you" were driving around with wings. Just that we all see a lot of civics like that. It wasn't meant as a personal attack bud.

And yes, that is starting w/ a blower. That's our point exactly. We're improving on a nice stock design. And while I'll say again. Do what you want with your car and I'll do what I want with mine. The point is a civic wasn't meant to be a performance automobile. The gtp was, or they would have never put a blower on it.

I'm sure we can meet up at the track. And I'm sure we'd have a good race, I just don't live in ND. But I sure do love my blower when she wines.

Oh and here's my mods and car.

Thrasher CAI, gmpp catback, Catless Pacesetters, aeroforce, GMPP handling kit, AGX struts w/ ssc springs, 180* tstat, MSD Wires, AL104 plugs, Custom Tune. 1.9 modded rockers, 3.5" blower pulley.

I've added some things since the picture. It's nothing special, but as I like to say. To each his own.

I drive a modded 98gtp.

You hate on Pontiac's for the same reasons, a lot of us also hate Honda's.

1. They're usually daily drivers
2. They're "girl" cars (although I disagree with that from both sides)
3. Honda and Pontiac don't produce exotic V12s, therefore you can't be proud of your car

The only difference I see in grand prixs and Honda's is that most Honda's can't even be made "that" fast. Of course you can add a turbo, and the same goes for adding a turbo to a grand prix gt.

Why many people have a misconstrued conception of the gtp is because, appearance wise it looks the same as an SE or GT . You can call the 3800 crap, but when you put an m90 blower on top, it's nothing to joke about. Sure it still runs mid 14's bone stock. But tell me a Honda (s2000 excluded) that does that?

Put 2 grand into the engine of a gtp and you're at high 12's or low 13's. That's approaching vette territory. I can imagine, but I would like proof that I'm wrong. But adding 2 grand into a civic wont get you into to 12s.

I raced my buddies heavily modded 00 si bone stock and had him by multiple lengths. So this is my only comparison. But still.

I believe if it's your passion, then fine. I apologize for some of the clubgp comments. But we get aggravated at a lot of the ricers out there. Your fart cannons are annoying and your wings are unnecessary. You wont find a gp with a fart cannon from clubgp. Maybe cammed, headers and a 3" exhaust, but that's a different story. Those mods add hp, not an annoying sound.
