right on man, all that really matters in a car is the engine, transmission and interior.

screw suspension, wheels/tires and brakes. who needs that crap, right?

i think we reached newb to ugly faster than your car can hit a 140mph drift.

Post some pictures and start reading important threads. You'll learn alot about your car, and what IS and ISN'T going to get you flamed and made fun of in the 240 Gen chat.

One thing most people look down upon here is talking big about street racing and being super mega drift worthy. Stop it, we're not in highschool.
