today when i was comming home from werk, i saw a stock volkswagen golf and i decided to flash my hazzards and on went a race. we were pretty equal to begin with but then off he went.
gosh....
now i need some preformance parts.
i can usually kill civics and such, i dun get how a stock golf could've killed me.
any of you guys got any embarrassing losses?

yeah, i can keep up with a v6 97' camaro. i hate losing to old people. like old folks in v8 crown vics

dood so flashin the hazards is like race talk or somthin?

j2tha0e

ya, i'm thinking flashing the hazzards would instigate a race.

I think I may know almost better than anyone that the ES 300 is not a racing car. Good try but keep your car clean and they will respect it.

aight...

Was the golf a GTI? If so, any newer GTI (1.8T or Vr6) would give the ES300 a serious *** kicking in a race. No point racing an ES300 anyway, its a slow car, except for the 5-speed versions which are surprisingly quick.

dude, there's not much of a difference

j2tha0e

is my car really that slow?
i've read repetedly that this car isn't that fast, but i swear i can kill quite a few cars on the freeway.

i guess it just must be skills.

alight, so if my car is slow as stock, is there potential with mods?

blux

dood I dont think our cars are slow....compared to other cars I have driven....the lex is suprizingly fast... Ive killed many, usualy some pos...haha although this guy in a 02 sebring convert owned me, I didnt have my pwr button on so...it was kinda lame... </random>

Definetly like the idea of droppin a supercharger on. That would give those silly domestic stock mustangs and camaros a run for their money.

if u want performance parts, go to www.weapon-r.com they have an ECU for 95+ ES300's i believe. You can also get an air intake and airbox from them. I'm not sure how much all this would help as far as speed (even though intake might give u a cool noise)... but then again when u take off from a stoplight with someone, every lil bit helps.

EGainer

try making your own performance parts. i am looking into making my own cold air intake

about the respecting thing. i have found that people don't respect old es300s. it seems that they thiink i am drving a camry. so it really gets them when i pull away from the light with my engine growling and moving with some speed. our cars can beat many cars, excluding sports cars.

w0rd up to that EG....these peeps are like look, its an old es...then we kick there asses..... WHA WHA WHAT!!
