> [@newman](#): > > ew. i hate poor people. > > my point of hating on your choice of saturns is as follows: > > 1. It’s FWD. FWD sucks real bad. I’d prefer to drive a fucking camaro than any FWD car. > 2. Someone bitched that there was hardly any aftermarket support… You’re setting a double standard here, because you want something that no one else mods, yet you want companies to make alot of stuff for it? Well, I can tell you from experience that modding a motor with no aftermarket support (in this country at least) sucks real hard. My motor even had a huge precedent that i could follow, but you’re kind of taking a stab in the dark here… if you’re going to be a pioneer, shit WILL break. “not everyone has alot of money for their cars”… EXACTLY why you should not be trying to build a fast car on an obscure platform… > 3. I was knocking your choice of parts because it seems like you’re planning on staying NA, but the parts that you’re buying seem like they would be at home in a high compression race motor, yet no slugs or rods? How the hell are you planning on making 350HP? It’s possible i missed something here. Also, you listed one current aftermarket brand of plug wire, then said you were planning on changing them out to a different aftermarket brand? Sounds like a real ricery thing to do… maybe there is more reason… maybe you just need them to run that MSD ignition… > 4. I know you want to be different, but it’s tough to be different on a budget. If you really want to make your saturn go fast, pull it with a turbo honda setup… (or better yet, push it 😉 ) If anyone on here understands odd projects, it would probably be me… (someday i will build a rear engined turbo nissan v6 powered geo metro) > > This is just my opinion, of course. I admire people who try to do something different, but i also hate to see people, myself DEFINITELY included, throw their money away… are u refering the greatest motor evar known as the vq30 in ur #2…cause even being in the top 10 motors of all time it took the 350z a good platform for companies to start making quality parts for the VQ motors…unfortunately its different enough to not be compatable with my version of the VQ…i also get asked y i mods my car…i just say cause i want too…but i am also not trying to build teh ultimate car either…i still hate Saturns though…Happy Motoring ---

so much saturn humping in here. i agree that obscure fast cars are cooler than commonly fast cars, but it’s still going to cost alot more than modding a common platform… and it doesn’t take a good mechanic to make a slow car fast, it takes a good mechanic and MONEY!!! if you are ok with tossing your money away into something that you will never recouperate, then, fine. Trust me, i know what this is like. i lost about 20 grand on my last project. lol. But yeah… if you are young… it’s not a great idea… ---

Trust me, i know what this is like. i lost about 20 grand on my last project. lol. But yeah… if you are young… it’s not a great idea… I must admit, I agree with Newman. I wish I would have started with a better platform than my last ride. I was so eager to get into the whole car thing, and didn’t realize that in the end I would have been happier just saving my money and buying the car I really wanted. Maybe then I wouldn’t have had to wait till I was almost 30 years old to finally own the car I have always wanted. It just seems like you are trying to gold plate a turd. It might look pretty in the end, but it is still a turd. ---

Bring it out for autox next season! Some more fun for us SM guys! But newman is right (as much as it pains me to say it). You can’t polish a turd. And many of us have tried, only to find out that without an assload of disposable cash, it’s not worth it. Your money is best spent on the car that is “quick” to begin with. However, if you don’t care what we say, good luck with the build up. I hope it comes out well. ---

> [@RedConquestTSi](#): > > That just brought a tear to my eye. > > This should be the NYSpeed Mission Statement, lol mm trevor…always coming up with tearful writings. HAY NOW! I pay for my insurance! Yeah, when i was 17 i didn’t…but now I do…and let me tell ya! it fucking blows dick! 250$ a month car payment 488$ a year bike insurance and wait… 3400 a year for car insurance yes.my insuracne payment is more than my car payment :gay2: Oh and this goes to the original poster… kid, stop what you are doing. How old are you? I am 19. and i figured this out in a few years I will be looking to purchase a house. when it came to buying a new car, I looked at the following… new car…VW GTI or used…something like a honda civic(insert any other pocket rocket)…i would make it realy fast and sweet and shit. but i looked at the future… in a few years. My GTI will be worth 15,000 or more. thats a pretty good chunck of change… or in a few years, i would have a sweet honda civic…but when i go to sell the honda i would make maybe 5 grand? at the most! So if your going to break your bank…do it on a car that isn’t going to depreciate like crazy. or just keep your saturn… and drive it…and save money for future investments (house,school ect) ---
