That's ok - I joined expecting 99% of everyone to insult my ride, with the exception of LilRoush...thank you.Let me address the haters first:@Rick_slayer, I have nothing but respect for Hondas, and there's a BIG difference between a RICER and a TUNER. Anyone who has been around racing as much as I have knows this. The Honda you seem intent on bashing has smoked Z06's at the strip, and after adding a turbo and being dynoed, has been rated at 650 hp to the wheels. Pretty sure no V8 on this forum, Cobra or otherwise could touch that. Power to weight ratio. 3000+ lbs vs. 1800 lbs. You do the math.@MadStang, with the exception of my MUFFLER, my N95's exhaust IS STRAIGHT-THRU. No cats, no resonators. Straight pipe from the LTs back. And don't even get me started on how raspy and awful 3.8s sound with straight dual exhaust.@ba#97, I've never seen another N95 or 197 lowered more than 2 inches, so I don't quite understand the skepticism on how it handles. You only need to look at MadStang's pic to see that the N95s have ridonkulous body roll. The factory suspension is designed for comfort, not cornering. I owned a 1995 V6 before this one, and I lowered it 2" with springs, and it obviously improved the cornering, but my white one would run circles around it. 45 degree curves at 100 MPH are nothing for it. As for the street racing, I've been doing it for 10 years, and I'm certain everyone on here has atleast done a few from a redlight here and there. If you had took the time to read my post with the links, I CLEARLY say that there are NO ROAD COURSE VIDS.@bonestock3.8: There IS a race against a Jetta, and if you had read the description, you would know why there's vids of the Honda and 6G72. Both are on the same team as me, so naturally we video each other's rides occasionally. Why that kind of exhaust? (I refuse to say fart can). Simply because, duals sound like S*** on a 3.8.@g36monkey: The handling on my N95 is where it is the strongest. I've overtaken new Camaros on the highway simply because they cant enter and glide through curves at the speeds I can. I've done 45* curves @ 100 mph and the tires never even chirped. It needs downforce now though. The stock spoiler is useless, and just for looks. Let me tell you, at 125 MPH, the rear really starts to shake its bon bon.Finally, @ LilRoush, who was kind enough to respect my ride more than anyone else, the front geometry has suffered, but the cornering ability Ive got in exhange is well worth it. Also, when I say Eibach springs, I don't mean the pro kit, I mean the UPR Pro Series coilovers, which come with Eibach 10" springs.</blockquote>
