Jesus christ, you need to research. Your 16 eyars old, you don't have the funds to upkeep a motor swap or a turbo car.

Then come back.

Heres a tip though. Learn how to really drive your car, like REALLY drive. Don't be stupid and TRY to drift on public roads. Also, dont be stupid and get tickets either. Don't speed, just work, get money, and fix anything thats wrong with the car beforehand.

That video is one of the greatest things I have ever seen. As far as all the noobs are concerned, I'm starting to believe that some jerk is making up a new name every few days just to annoy the **** out of everyone.

Seriously, this is getting out of hand.

Can we have a "how not to embarass yourself" sticky?

You shouldn't be modding ANYTHING on your car, or doing anything to it other than regular, normal maintenance unless you've actually had track time in it. Even autocross will do, but it has to be something. Even a tire upgrade, which is sort of a no-brainer, shouldn't be undertaken until you will recognize what the difference is.

Get some wheel time in an actual, legal, sanctioned competition before you spend money on anything else.

If you're modding your car to impress people, so you get "ooohs" and "ahhhs" at the local "spot", you're a loser, plain and simple.

MAYBE, But i thought that just meant you were playing need for speed underground 2 too much... bigger wing + uglier kit + more vents + fog lights = higher street cred
