OH GOD!!!!!!! Did anyone see that full throttle show where they took two 85 Hot air Grand Nationals. Yea well they butcherd them, they put all the wrong stuff on it and ran about the same times as the cars would run stock.

WELLL..... I was cruising around in my new F-250 and when I pulled into the local hang out, I noticed about 3 guys walking over to my truck. "Hey, are you the one with the Grand National that is always telling people it run 11's and shit?" I told them that yes I have a GN and yes it will runs 11's. there reply " I watched that build up the trubotwins did on full throttle, your car ain't shit"


Give me two three more weeks to get the GN up and running and I will be telling you about the slaughter of a 14 second civic hatch.

I really hope alot of people really think that this summer, if so, it should be a very exciting summer. :evillol:

my friends told me about that episode. the rules if i remember was that they can't upgrade the turbo. but anyways, i hate watching those tuner shows soemtimes becuase if your not lucky, your car will be featured and you will watch it get butchered. i'm sure everyone here has saw pimp my ride with the 240sx. damn them!!! they ruined it. they based it off need for speed underground, and the car was painted green!! with neon lights everywhere, and 3 x boxes in the back seat. with a wing that doenst' match the shape of the car at all!!! with no performacne work done!!! argh.

however i was surprised at tuner transformations work with the EVO since they bought in shiv vishnu personally to work on that car. or how they converted a FWD toyota Paseo into a RWD drift car.

Yeah, I saw that one, and the 240sx on pimp my ride. And all those other shows, and I've got to agree with lickem, Overhaulin is the only show I'd let come within 50ft of my car.

I used to watch all those shows every sunday morning at home. Then i realised how stupid they were and how cliche' most of them are. And i think most of the people that get on that xzibit show just go to the junk yard get a pile of shit and claim it's their car so they get a "cool" one afterwards. However i wouldn't let any show touch my car with a ten foot poll, any work that's gonna be done to it, i'll do it....except for painting cause i can't paint.

tuner transformation is the only show that i would let them do something to my car. they did a good job turboing some guys IS300 on the episode i saw.

They put a bigger turbo, MSD ing. which was pointless, tranny, slicks, and an intercooler (the only two years they were intercooled were 86 and 87. They also put injectors in but did not any PROM chip upgrade. and they used the stock fuel pump............ pointless

Those twin guys piss me off. I hate how they provide all the parts, they shoud just give them $1500 or so and let them spend it on whatever they want.

Well, not only do the cars pretty much suck..but you gotta take in account the drivers aswell. 3 second short times are pretty common on that show. do they show the full timeslips on every episode? they did on the two i watched.
