Out of Car experiences

any body, after driving or being driven by someone elses car, have that feeling that their car is just so slow. I knew it was slow but after getting driven in a gtr my car just seems so heavy, so slow.

i love my car but now, i just dont see it in the same light anymore. just ranting cause i’m bored. emo Sam i guess.

Oh god tell me about it. Everything i have ridden in lately feels slow. Once you get a fast car you start to necome real numb as to what still feels fast.

thats exactly why i dirve my taurus every once in a while…it makes my car feel like a rocket when i get back in…

sometimes yeah

yeah I dont drive my civic unless I absolutely have to

lol my cars not all that fast, but I do know what you’re talking about. Makes me wanna jump into my car and rip after being in someone elses car.

Shit man, I used to think my Spec V was a quick car. A two gear not-even-to-redline pull in my GT-R puts it to shame. :E

Then again, even a stock 240 would feel fast compared to some of the dogs my family has owned over the years. Dodge Caravans just are NOT THAT FAST. :E

when i sold my Skyline GTR i bought a 180sx a couple days later and i thought it had some serious engine problems. It seemed so gutless after driving a GTR.

but then again i found my GTR to be slow after i got used to it, which was like 10 days. Those were the best 10 days i ever had in a car.

i miss my GTR

Marks Cefiro made me feel that way. But driving my Spec V makes my 240 seem fast again.

Anytime I feel my GT-R getting slow…I drive my 180sx.

Anytime my 180sx getting slow I drive my Sunbird LE.

Then I switch back to the GT-R…and Im good for a week. :tonqe:

yah i just drove my friends WRX with sti turbo,injectors,intercooler etc. and MY god did my car feel slow, made me cry. and the AWD handling is just unreal compared to FWD handling it sucks, makes me wish i never drove that thing

driving my sisters sunfire puts things in persepective :stuck_out_tongue:

The best is when you put 15 G’s into an engine and it still slower than a Spec V :cry

Any STI scares me…even with a 400HP AWD GT-R…Im just…scared of them.

My good friend …kinda my mentor has a 500HP STI …and I think thats where my trauma began haha.

Sorry to be part of that!

There’s a TON of fun to be had in any car that handles half decent. You drive drive every car differently - lower power just means you need to carry more speed into the corner to get your maximum exit speed.

I think the common thread here is that EVERYONE feels like their car is slow. :?

It’s what drives the aftermarket part market!

i can never own a slow car again. even if i sell my car for an S2000 or 350Z, i’d have to add a turbo kit to either one. i think we’ve been ruined for life.

riding in my friends cars always makes me want to swap an RB into mine. 412whp SRT-4, 285whp turbo AE86, 260whp turbo integra and a SVT stang round out our club members. i’m at the back of the pack! :oops:

Ever since I started driving my husbands 300zx I have more respect for them and less respect for my car. This is because I havent hit boost in my car with the turbo since it was first put on. So when I think about driving my car I think of it stock. Plus the 300zx is pretty quick at 1.2 bar. :smiley: . The 300zx also made me want coilovers really bad because I feel like im driving a 4x4 now after driving such a low car. On another note when I drive my truck I cant stand it because I cant rush into a merging lane like I can with my car or the 300zx cause its too slow but at the same time it makes me wish I had more torque like the durango. I can beat anyone of the line with the truck but after that its all down hill from there.

I threw my n/a header back on today while I’m waiting for my turbo to get rebuilt. Holy shit hondas are slow. :?

stock 350Z grip = insane. Pretty quick too, but the grip is the only thing that really impresses me.

I almost got in a head on collision tonight driving on the highway, I was in my truck and it can’t pass like the 180 can.
