Show us your vehicle

That makes perfect sense. 'Cos everything inbetween that.. I dunno, is dangerous?

No, even because our brand new vehicles are more dangerous than any 1990 Miata or an AE86. They got one star in crash tests, and got called death traps. :lol:

 

They block the import, as they say, to "protect the national market". They used the same excuse to raise the import taxes more than 30%, because Hyundai and Kia were just smashing our cars, same price, yet a lot better. So, 30% tax increase, their price got raised, they lost their advantage.

 

Yes, if you are a gear head, live in Brazil is horrible. :lol:

Any car is a death trap, you can have over 9000 airbags and 100 point seatbelts and a helmet and still get sent to hospital..or..well..die.

 

However it does depend on the seriousness of the crash.

Chevrolet Celta.

 

Fiat 500.

 

Look the difference on the structure deformation. Lol

 

Edit: There is your reason on why a Fiat 500 costs 40.000 BRL and a Celta costs 25.000 BRL. :lol:

[The Compensator]

We don't have almost any taxes (ony the VAT thingy I think). Yet.

 

If you buy a car from an owner (not a dealer), you don't have to pay VAT and when you buy a car from a dealer abroad, you have to pay the VAT in the country you bought the car, but not in CZ. :D

[Guest MrLolololXD]

you can have over 9000 airbags

This dude named Stingray (now Mr. Stingray) on NFSCars trolled an entire forum a few years back, saying he was building up a C3 Stingray, it went on for 2 months. Nobody cared afterwards because in the end he admitted to it, now he's a good friend of mine I talk to occasionally on GTRn. He now drives a Z28 Camaro (yes it's legit.).

 

Link me to the post about the GT3 btw, I wanna look :L

HAHAHAH OWNED.

 

I guess its not as bad as my ex friend who told me had a 900HP TT Supra drag car :L I haven't seen any time sheets or photos of that car from him.

I know man :) I've raced ST focuses with the turbo 5 pot engine and worried them myself lol, it's the weight if anything, plus how these honda's put the power down so well. Similar story with Mb's 106 I bet.

I don't know much about VTecs to be honest with you, I keep hearing that they only come into their power range at 5000rpm, is this true or false? If you can keep up with a 5cyl turbo Focus then it can't be true.

Yeah the 106 is pretty quick... It's not a problem to keep up with most "family" cars with 200bhp.

Well it's true in a way, with the infamous "vtec kick" the power cams cut in at 5600rpm on mine and the open the valves for longer, letting in...umm...more lol. But if I do a standing start/pull from above or near 5600 it's pretty rapid lol, the focus race was from a standing start, if I whack a lightened flywheel in it would be even better.

By "family" I assume you mean "heavy" :lol:

[Mb]

Yep. The owner of a Volvo S40 T5 (220bhp) didn't like me being in his mirror all the time :p

[Ryzza5]

Well then just put him in your mirror ;)

[Guest MrLolololXD]

900HP TT Supra drag car

 

One day... That will be me...

 

But not a TT LOL He's an idiot to suggest a 900hp twin turbo Supra drag car :lol:

5600rpm? Sounds pretty late..:/ Would rather a boost kick at 2500 or something, nothing late.

 

Well then just put him in your mirror ;)

 

Ahh, so many angry people in their heavy "cool" cars get left behind by the Miata..:lol:

 

One day... That will be me...

Yay for 8 second 1/4 mile passes! Hahah

[Ryzza5]

My car isn't that heavy - 1400kg roughly, and boost comes on from 1750rpm all the way up to 6500, running at 21 PSI max

Hmmm should pull a Santuu and make you guess, not that I trust everyone else to keep their trap shut.
