Car Choice...

NvrFstEnuff · 01-24-2006, 11:00 PM

To be honest I want a nice fast daily driver. I mean I plan on keeping it twin turbo'd just probably bigger turbo's/piping/intercooler etc. I dont know what it will take in these cars to have a 10 second car I'm guessing 550-600rwhp with a good driver?.

My suggestion, go to Hondas site and pull up the NSX.

Costs more then(considerably), weighs more than(noticable), produces less power than(dramatically) a Corvette.

You can pull the cars up on Hondas site.

BTW, my info is about a month or two old.

I don't like the NSX platform. They.. don't do anything for me.

NeverFastEnough: When you said you wanted a "fast daily driver", I could've guessed many things, but.... you want a 10 sec daily driver? Lol, that's kinda funny.

Yes, I'm guessing you'll need over 600 hp @ the WHEELS at least, to get there... but I might not know what I'm talking about.

There is a guy in z32power.com with a 300ZX as a daily driver... he can do 11.something, I don't remember how many HP he has, but I think it was over the 600 @ the wheels.. he even made a custom made little fuel tank with race gas (high octane), and with the press of a switch, BOOM, the fuel is drawn from that tank instead of the normal fuel tank. Insane stuff. Wanna know the best part of it? He runs the STOCK wheels! Hah... 16" I think... with semi-slick tyres I think, Nitto or something, don't remember.

Want my honest opinion? Whoever drives a 10 sec car daily, is nutz! =P It takes a lot to reach those 10 secs. And it's just not HP... then you gotta make the car take off nicely from the line, coz you'll wheelspin like a madman. :P
