[QUOTE=Dattebayo]

No, I am not wrong. The power difference makes up for the weight gain, "BUB".I am telling you the other guy can't drive.

^Messed up the Quote I know

Look, i dont think anybody named Dattebayo was riding shotgun in either car that night. So how can you sit here and tell me that he cant drive, or are you saying I can't drive?

And based on what everyone else is saying on this thread, Yes it is possible that a Ka can keep up if not beat an N/A VG which was what the thread was origianlly about....not about who can and who cant drive.

So, i suggest you tuck in your skirt "BUB", and maybe flip off your high heels too while your at it, and keep the inaccurate posts elsewhere

My post is not inaccurate, and in fact I was praising your driving skills over the other guy. I'm sorry you can't handle praise and criticism in the same post?

Keep up, yes in deed it should, but the final drive ratio and the torque of the VG should have taken over off the line given the same driver. The trans gearing is practically the same, so that should pretty much eliminate any ideas you will get about that too...

You really need to take your personal insults and go somewhere else with them because they are not a great way of making you look any better. Please at least attempt to have a more adult view on a discussion please in the future. Thanks.

CAUTION: Never get in a e-pen15 fight with Dattebayo, he uses teh e-pen15 to distract you while he nails you over the head with his e-baseball bat

This thread is full of crap. The only people making any sense here is Datte and ilovesideways.

OP, you are an idiot. Big deal, your stock KA kept up with a N/A z32 with a crappy driver. Come on, is it really something to brag about? It probably took you guys 20 minutes to get into 5th gear from start. I'm not rippin on your cars, I'm just sayin that there is no point in making a thread about "keeping up" with a N/A z32 for god's sake.

Should I make a thread about my sohc sil40 "keeping up" with my dad's 96 jeep cherokee? I'm sure you guys would all love to hear that.

oh wow, a comedian you must have a huge pair of balls my friend!!! congrats???

Hey, Dattebayo, i dont know what to say...honestly.

Um, I wasn't trying to start a whole who is right and what not, it was a simple thread of did my car actually keep with a VG ZX. Thats all. It turned out to be a hatred thread towards the whole NICO family and you, so sorry.

I sound like an @$$ kisser i know but whatever. You have more experience and knowlege (I hope, from the amount of posts you have) so i'll just end it here.

And to anyone else....I'm not saying my car is CRAZY fast. Its a ka with bolt-ons, gimme a break. Its okay for what it is i guess but still slow. It was a simple thread to see if a Ka could keep up with a VG. The only way for a Ka to be somewhat quick is with Boost!!!

THE END.

And as far as BHP, it does make a difference. You freakin' bench racers keep applying HP numbers that don't mean a screw tho, you need to be broken of the habit somehow...

God its been a while since I've heard the term "bench racing" haha

On topic - I agree - I do believe the apparent teenager couldn't drive completely correct.

BHP is a term mostly used in europe, "brake horse power", same thing as just saying HP just the brits like to use it. it originated by the use of dynos that used a brake system to measure the engines power, hence the B in BHP. im not sure where you guys think that its designated as a term for wheel horse power. it all depends on where the power is measured from. mostly all manufacturers use flywheel ratings, that they can call BHP, HP or PS.
Im pretty sure PS is not the same thing as BHP or HP... it's more closely related to whp numbers if i remember correctly
