My bro's car.!!!

My bro's car.!!!

I kno it's not a corolla... just wanted to show u guys wat my 18yr old brother has done to his car so far...
he's done most of the work by himself... so far he converted from auto to manual, then from single to twincam, then he turbocharged, custom set up with t3/t4 turbo, running at 10psi.... most of the work was custom done.
leave any comments .... btw... i kno it needs more bodywork, but he's working on it.

man i luv that sweet looking header.... nice sleeper ride

Nice sleeper

yea, deffinetly a sleeper

Dont judge,the book by its cover...i always say...

yeah what you said...
(damn, theres no sign emoticons here... its only on vvt-i.net... )

so far he's raced againts an srt4 at 6psi and were practically even..

dude tell him to just paint it flat black that looks like one kick ass sleeper....id love to see that smoke a freakin integra that would be sweet!!!

i bet that car hauls ass.

Is he running with stock internals?

its a sleeper but that thing looks like it will break down pretty quick, he shoulda chose a more reliable car to throw all that work into.

yup.. so far he's ran at 15psi, but he burned a hose that was supposed to be heat resistant... he's going to sell the car by the summer.. there's a bunch of people interested.


its a sleeper but that thing looks like it will break down pretty quick, he shoulda chose a more reliable car to throw all that work into.>>>>>>>>> break down in wat way most of the stuff has ben rebuilt and as of the body, it looks lke that cuz he just took it out of his garage after 8months... the engine and tranny are pretty much new.

i dunno, i guess its just not my style, to each his own...i rather drive a slow but nice car so i can pick up the ladies and cruise on weekends rather than drive a turbo'ed car worth $1500. And also if thats a daily driver, the car will be striving to live soon, let alone running at 10+psi's. But i guess since he's selling it in the summer then that doesnt matter...he should have fun wit it as long as he still has it, wut car is he getting next?

If he was to pick up ladies.. then i'll let him use my car... he'll be getting a 2005 mazdaspeed 6.

you haven't studied up on the GTX and B6T mazda motors.. some nice stuff there..

That's not a header man, he got turbo!!! Zoom Zoom!!

I pity the man that needs a nice car to pick up girls. My 94 looks like shit inside and just about always has some clothes or text books thrown on the back seat. If a girl isn't a complete gold digging ditz she won't give a fuck.

you do have a point, u dont have to dirty just bc ure broke

as opposed to a riced out corolla? lmfao

yeh well try rollin up wit that thing to a club or to a formal business meeting, its not quite the best thing...kinda embarassing in my opinion.

yep, i would take a newer gen corolla, riced out or not, rather than a quick shitbox

is the arroz man talkin bout rice. everyone has their prefences itll be ideal to have the best of both worlds but some ppl like things as they are

Luxury-Good Looking > Speed

In the real world that is. The track has it backwards. What do you need all that power on public roads for anyways? Impressing girls when you're running over people?

Having clothes all over your car and books all up in the back and having your car unwashed doesn't say have to say anything about money status and gold digging jackpot signs to ditzy girls. It does say a lot about you though and the way you handle a little thing called cleanliness.

Not dawging on you, but everyone needs to be presentable, no matter what they drive. If it's a shit car, at least keep it clean. That'll say more about you than money ever will.

well i dont mean to bash on the car, it just that i see sleepers and they are still real nice lookin, clean and shiny paint, nice wheels, etc....but that car is just none of that other than the engine....

Heres an example of a sleeper in my book, its runnin 11.4's qtr mile (even tho its a civic).....

I'm guessing he put in the 1.8 BPT? If that is the case, the *reliability* questions that people brought up are pointless, that engine was built for boost, can handle alot on stock internals, friend of mine is looking for one for his MX-3 right now actually...

Headers are sweet, that is great pipe work to do by yourself I really like it

who are u gonna waste on the road....the old grandpas in their buicks or the soccermoms in their caravans?

dude, go get a beer and go to sleep.... u dont even kno how to compensate the fact that a $1,500 car (like u said)... is much faster than yours, even after all the money u've invested in your car.
Not only that but, this car was practically build by my brother, he doesnt drive it day and night like u think... this is just a project... he has a 01 toyota rav4 ,.. and soon will be getting a 05 mazdaspeed 6.

That's not what was implied earlier in the thread. I'm saying that the kind of car you drive shouldn't have an impact on how you get girls. My car is like my 2nd home since I'm in college and live off campus. It's a necessity for my stuff to be in there, so cleanliness has nothing to do with it, actually. If you feel that you can't pick up women without a nice car, you are sorely mistaken and have obviously been missing out for a long time.

Obviously, some peope have a distorted view of what a sleeper is. A sleeper is not a show car. A sleeper is not meant to have nice paint and nice shiny rims. If a sleeper had all of these things, it would no longer be considered a sleeper, because it would attract attention. A sleeper is a any car that misleads others about its performance intentions.

If you want something shiny with nice wheels, go buy an Escalade and call it a day.
