any time you pay interest you're making a dumb move unless you can invest the money elsewhere for more $ 4/8/2007 9:29:31 PM |

^^ if you can't average better than 5.5-6.5% return by investing it elsewhere, you're doing something wrong. 4/9/2007 11:14:21 AM |

eh, the VQ is a really good engine though. 4/9/2007 3:08:12 PM |

for n/a they're having to re do it completely for skyline its not beefy enough thats also why 3.2 l instead of 3.5 not enough meat between the pistons for boost.

Funny thing is that if I said buick is for old people, imbeciles would post a picture of grand national. Some of you ought to be bitch slapped. Stop fucking pretending you can't read between the lines. 4/9/2007 4:22:26 PM |

gnx is cool but still a 40+ car imho
and if you feel like it pm me i'll give you my name and address for that bitch slap
how bout people not make retarded comments like "dur dur lexus is for old posers" i mean a gs300 yeah maybe but the gs400 and gs450 are damned nice cars. and you have to remember bmw still has a 525 which isn't any better if not worse. 4/9/2007 4:29:56 PM |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the N/A inline 6 from Toyota siginificantly different than their FI engine? 4/9/2007 5:13:56 PM |

IS 300 > G35 > TSX > TL > GS 300
that's for the previous generations/engines.
for brand new, it would be slightly different, i guess:
IS-F > G35 > IS 350 > GS 350 > TL Type-S > TL > TSX = IS 250

OK YOU WIN...
Prove it man... g35 blocks start letting go around 450hp go to their forums... i was looking at getting one till i found out the block had to be sleeved for supra rivaling power and even then the motor still isn't solid.. all you need for the is300 is rods, pistons balance and blueprint and you're ready for high rpm high boost and don't have to worry about the friggin block coming apart on you or crank walk. 4/10/2007 4:59:03 PM |
