@ZxMURDER what technology? Nitrious? Turbo's? Freaking computerized fuel injectors? Sheesh you can find that crap on an 87 Buick GN with 2 Cylinders less.
this 4000 horsepower 4 banger is only a engineering marvel of sorts. Other that that, who would want to see an annoying 5 second noise maker, when they can see a low 4 second Hemi. At least the top fuel hemi sounds good at 8000 horsepower. I can only imagine how horrible the noise is that comes from a 4000 hp 4 cylinder. they are annoying enough listening to ones that go 14 seconds. they pop and bang like crazy trying to make that power. And soup can exhausts.... uhhhh
@kyleisreallycool dont forget the brotha:) black power baby Antron Brown ran a 3.7 Antron Brown Track Record Top Fuel Dragster Qualifying O'Reilly Summer Nationals Topeka Kansas
@kyleisreallycool wtf are you sayin? thats not the 1/8th mile its clearly the quarter its been the 1/4 mile the whole time wake up and get the facts straight before you say something
@mine1username You obviously haven't heard even an 8 second 4 cylinder car...
It's just as loud - but the resonant "can" sound (the word you use to describe a 4cylinder that you stole from your friend, who stole from his friend, who stole from his red neck dad) isn't as spaced out as much like the v8s. It's just as mind blowing loud and you can feel it in the bleachers.
Be specific with the word hemi too. Did you know Chevy Sprints have hemis? The 1.3L turbo car form the 80s. Look it up.
@psychoninja911 I was very "specific". I said low 4 second hemi. You show me any 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder "hemi" that powers a dragster to 4 seconds. Second, I never said the 4 cylinders weren't loud. Unfortunately the little 4 bangers "are" loud, and annoying! They sound like crap! They pop and bang and weeze. That's not cool sounding to me. I'd rather listen to my girlfriend yelling at me than listen to a souped up 4 cylinder.
@mine1username Pop and banging... That sounds like a few things. First I'll start with rev limiter. Next could be bad tuning. Back firing all together. Unburned fuel. Also could be this trick where - clutch all the way in turns the car off (keeps turbo spooling) when you release the clutch the car turns on. I know a lot dsm guys that do this and it leaves a lot of unburned fuel that pops when you floor it again.
The weezing - is a turbo sound. Look up Larry Larson on youtube. Weezy turbo v8.
@mine1username And for the hemi comment. Not sure - did you watch this video and notice the cylinder walls here? I'm sure there's one out there where they cut the cylinders out of a solid block of aluminum.
These 4 cylinders are SAFER as well. This dragster will sound about the same as any. The human ear can only hear 120db. Dragsters produce 194+db of sound accelerating. 120+db at idle. Therefor, at idle your human ears will only pick up distortion after they accelerate.
@psychoninja911 I wear ear plugs when I go to the top fuel or funny car races anyway. Besides, the sound is well within the frequency range that humans can pick up. I gaurantee you I can tell the difference. The bottom line is this- This 4 cylinder is one hell of a peace of engineering, no doubt. However it would be extremely annoying to watch this thing going 5 or 6 seconds in the 1/4. It won't draw the excitement that V8 will bring. I have heard some 6 cylinders that I like, I'll admit.
@mine1username The sound is not within human's range of hearing. 120db (give or take 10 or less). I fancied car audio for like 6 years competitively. I know about where anyone's hearing stops in dB.
And you haven't even heard this 4 cylinder run yet. If I'm correct, normal dragsters power their turbos with EXHAUST, which muffles the sound a good deal. This dragster dumps the exhaust and powers the turbo with nitrous. Nitrous powered turbo leaves the exhaust sound to be deafening.
@mine1username This is a over 4liters 4 cylinder... Which means it's got a 4 cylinder the size of a mustangs v8.... It's not going to sound like what you think it will.
And I go to the races to see fast cars. I'm a car enthusiast. Not an Engine Cylinder Count loyalist... If this car showed up at the track, my heart would race to see what it could do to engines twice it's size (even though it packs double the technology).
@psychoninja911 You keep implying I am referring to loundness. It's the pulses that sound so horible on a 4 cylinder. See what the car will do to engines twice it's size huh? I have the answer for you already. The 500 cubic inch top fuel motors are about 8 liters, and are almost twice as fast as what they claim this 4 cylinder will do in a funny car body. To each his own I guess.
says to hang with v8 drag cars? There hoping one day to get under a 6 second 1/4 mile with 4000hp. Do they know top fuel drag cars like this run high 3s at over 300mph. This thing cant even come close to a v8
how many times this import vs domestic? isn't import makes v8, v10, v12 and even v16? and domestic have make some powerful 4cyclinder? my first car was a monte carlo drop in 454 built, currently i driving, 85mmx89mm gsr stroked turbo crx. really it come down to is how much money u have, not about who makes the car. any car can go fast if you have the right time money, well almost anything.
are all you fuckers seriously argueing over an import dragster?!?! everybody knows american muscle rules the drag strip.. euros can take corners better we all know this... we all know american muscle rules the strip... and we ALL KNOW HONDAS ARE GOOD FART CANNONS MADE FOR FAG BITCHES!!!!
Don't be so naive, american muscle is only good because they all have v8's. But the truth is hondas are much lighter in body and engine weight(only half the engine) any honda with only $5000 in it could rape a muscle car easily.
Did you fail physics in high school? Maybe you should go back. Oh my bad. You probably never turned a wrench or worked on a car professionally in your life! Oh Quick Lubes don't count!
@3codyh a 20k v8 would eat a 4 all day you dont know anything the only thing that makes 4s fast is boost you cant make power without it. not enough displacement.
@3codyh with 20k dude you could build way beyond 300-400 hp lol. and 4500 pounds lol were are you getting your numbers lol. on a b series you can get a little over 300hp with some money and it will fly and ya there light. and most camaros and mustangs are only 3500 pounds. STIs weigh close to that lol. corvettes weigh about 3000 or less but put out 700-800hp and over 1000 with boost lol. so wheres your argument n/a 4s maybe run 9s at best
ya and the newer ones weigh almost 3400 and thats close to 3500 right LOL. and i know they can run 9s all motor i said that its because civics are light. the weight power ratio n/a starts giving the advantage to the v8 cars. i may be a little off but to run 9s all motor civic you would have to around 350hp give or take correct me if im wrong and there about 2400 give or take well a corvette is only 500 pounds heaver but is capable of double that. whos gunna win boost evens the playing field.
@rockshox911 ya neither am i but i can respect for sure. but dam 450hp thats nuts it was probably b20 block for the extra displacement and like meth injected or something maybe spray. that thing is a beast for sure but i believe it these days lol.
im not ganna argue about that becasue i know what i kno and u might know more than me but idk. but ive swapped and rebuilt countless bseries, dseries, h and f series. i work at a gregs japanese auto
in the words of the oh-so-wise-ass Mr.transam- "shut the fuck up, you cock-loving cumdrizzling faggot". Bitch you grow up, all you can think about is homo remarks and calling people "ricers". that's way immature. I mean I could sit here and say
your running around calling this engine a larger version of a honda b18 when the entire engine was manufactured by this guy who has nothing to do with honda and not ONE piece of a honda part on that engine. This has as much to do with honda as it does any other 4 banger on the road.
yea im a joke. LMFAO coming from a guy like you, really makes me feel bad... wow. ahahaha
Just tell me this then: Why did he choose to badge it with honda/acura? Why not Pontiac? lol. Or some American counterpart? Japan popularized the inline-4, specifically Mitsubishi in 1911, if you wanna get technical, faggot. If y'all paid any attention, or knew a damn thing about B-series engines, or taken one apart and put it back together, you'd know by looking at this one in it's creation stages that it's created around the concept of the B-series' success. I can go all day bro.
he badged it honda/acura cause he knew the domestic boys would laugh at it(we make 8000+hp) but you ricerfags would ballwash it even though its american powered.
before you open your mouth and comment to me about something you dont know, try finding out what i got ya fucking moron. Please tell me you live in the NY area b/c i would LOVE to take your fucking money with your pos 648whp pump gas car. message me if you like buddy
LMFAO wow your a fucking idiot, did you watch the video or just spit the cum you sucked out of your gay friends cock right onto your keyboard and type that bullshit??
this thing has as much to do with honda as you have to do with a straight guy, you fuckin queer.
its a solid block of billet aluminum. No coolant passages, nothing. It is a one off custom machined piece of metal. One run in the 1/4 mile and its overheated by the end
nigga please, we dont need your immature homo-ass remarks. The fact that it is an INLINE 4 DOHC BASED off of a honda's layout is what makes it possible and here today. if you noticed, ever your little V6 V8 V12 funny cars are the same fucking way, prick. THEY ALL PRODUCE SO MUCH HP THATS WHAT THEY DO-- overheat. if you listened-which you DIDNT- you'd know he's putting one in with the next blocks he makes. it's only a fuckin trial version with more to come.
YOU FUCKING IDIOT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH A HONDA, GET IT THROUGH YOUR CUM SUCKING LIPS. I dont care about this motor. I think its funny all you stupid fucking ricers think it is a honda engine HAHAHAHA HOW FUCKING STUPID CAN YOU BE?!?!?
Its not based on a honda. your a fucking idiot.
My car is better then your car, i could give a fuck what some moron thinks of it. you wish you had it :)
You're straight as a rainbow talkin like that, kid. Is all you think about is homosexual remarks to confirm you're a member of the gay community? Psh if you didn't care you wouldn't have said a damn thing. Thing is, he decided to represent Acura (not honda). Not Pontiac. Not my fault if you're having a pissy PMS day about it, go cry it off in your boyfriend's arms. I wish i DID have your car so I could run it off a cliff where it belongs. XD
b18?!?! what the f*** were you smoking?!?! I ain't seen no 4.8lt solid billet b18! oh that must have been that special edition b18xyz to the power of 10. damn that guy should be the king of motorsport if he managed to get 4000hp out of a 1.8lt engine
have they even run this car yet? what does it really run in the 1/4 mile? I dont want projected numbers...I want a video of the car making a 1/4 pass.
he is the first to do what?? Brent rau's Mitsu has been in the 6's since 2006 and he has a 2.0 liter 4
dont get me wrong, this car looks sick but he is hardly innovating anything. People have been tuning import cars for 25+ years now. Everyone just calls us ricers. Now this old guy thinks he just invented 4 cylinder tuning hahaha?
even the emblem is probably an aftermarket brand emblem not genuine honda lol, and for those who keep thinking econmic and reliable japanese cars are the best thing to ever happen to mankind, look up some european for a change (if ur soo anti american V8)
There's not one single bit on Honda parts on that car. The engine is all billet, with nothing to do with anything out of Japan. Nothing. Do some research you noobs.
it's based off the rough design of a B18, otherwise a DOHC inlline 4 cylinder. But if you LISTEN it also says they basically cut a v8 in half and bored it. so apparently it's based off of half a V8, however that works...
In all technicality, it really is just a bigass 5.0L(or 4.8-watev) B18.
Thank the Japanese for making that idea even plausible today, for we'd still be running gas-guzzling, heavy-ass,unreliable domestics and thinking we're making a better world...
No, Branden.. it isn't. Do some fucking homework before spouting off your Youtube know-it-all dogshit. Google "bob norwood integra" and read all about it. Its got a billet Batten head and a custom billet block. Again, there is nothing Honda about the engine. NOTHING. Its all custom made stuff.
branden youre a complete retard. that engine is half a top fuel V8 using pistons, rods, bore centerline from arias top fuelers and one(insted of two) batten head. ALL AMERICAN dumbass. now go beat off to your paul walker poster ricerfag.
hey you asshole-licking, dirty-hoe rimjobbing, shit-headed, skinny-fuck, cockstain of a philistine! =) I acknowledge that he used half of a V8. But he still chose to represent Acura. =) lol, go figure. And make that poster Kate Beckinsale, screw your boyfriend Paul, he can't act worth a damn.
lick me ricerfag, domestics rule and you know it. he didnt just use half any V8, it was half an AMERICAN V8 cause rice cant handle that kind of power.
ricerfag? BAHAHAHA what kind of deliquent bullshit is that? You've no grounds to call me that crap, i own a BMW, which ISN'T Japanese. For real, what do you have? your TRICYCLE? "trike-fag". If you paid attention, Domestic's DON'T rule the world. European and Asian Imports do. Japanese imports OUTLAST shitty domestic historically, and majority of the worlds fastest DONT hail from AMERICA, they're ITALIAN, GERMAN supercars, you half-wit! Now run along and go play butt-fuck with paul walker, idiot
LMAO-the worlds fastest production car is american. the worlds quickest and fastest drag car is american. an american car owns the lap record for production cars at le-mans. american production cars went to nurburgring and pissed on the ferraris, lambos and most anything else the europeans and japs could build. on a personal note my "tricycle" will embarrass anything youve ever owned.
Yes you are rite, The areo ssc 387 cube pushrod twin turbo V8 run's 267 MPH, it's american, and the topfuel funny, and rail car's are the quickest 4 Wheeled car's this planet has ever seen. Even though the guy on this video is very very smart to make a 4 cylinder do what he want's it to, it is machined out of a solid chunk of billet aluminum. That tell's me one thing, way before a four cylinder hit's this point it can go no further. 4 cylinder's cannot match a V8. The video is proof.
He still has not taken this 4 cylinder place's where lesser powered V8's have allready been for the past couple of decade's. It is allmost 2010, and it still will not run 6 seconds reliably. So as off rite now the mid to high 7 second world is all import guy's have to look forward to.
Hmmm....the imports have V8 engines to work with as well. Nissan and toyota both have V8 engines. I'd like to see someone take those engine platforms to the extreme.
@460ciford There are rx7s running 6s and eclipse running 6s so i wouldn't go that far. And imports have V8s as well. Look at the Lexus IS-F with its 5.0 liter V8 and the numerous truck engines.
Oh you mean racing, okay. FIA GT1? The corvettes do well, but dont "own" everybody. LeMans you say? An American built car has not won since 1969. Oh you mean that crap we have over here, American LeMans where the only two cars in the class are Corvettes and Astons
Let me say again, the majority of the worlds fastest don't hail from America. Out of the 8 fastest production cars, only ONE is that lone SSC, which only recently came out. As has been said, no American-made car has won the REAL LeMans since '69, so i dont know what you're talkin about. And still again, in order to "piss" on the others, did not the Viper ACR use NON-stock? mhm. technically the fastest on Nurb. is Radical and Gumpert.
ill give you the gumpert-it is FAST. the radical isnt even street legal so who cares? finally the ACR used stock tires, the exact same ones that are on it from the dealership, it was all stock.
And what other countries blow up Drag racing like it's Football? NONE. America's really on it's own with Funny Car racing. doesn't count.
On the Nurburgring, Enzo, Zonda, and MC12 outgunned your C6 ZR1, with only that Viper topping because of it's "Hardcore Package" race upgrades. and non-stock tires. Pagani made a run only ONE second less than the ZR1 in semi-WET conditions. and the GT-R came in the same second range, only 0.3 seconds less. wooo, REALLY pissing on em, right? KILLED em!
@304teddy the ultima can be brought already built, the kit is just an option so u can save money. and it is street legal and it is a production car. it might have an american engine, but ultima get the power out the engine that the americans never could, and more importantly they can get all that power round a corner, which is where american cars just fail
the ultima is a kit car period. production car?-are you fucking retarded? the wor5lds most powerful production car is the SSC ultimate aero which is also the worlds fastest production car. it makes 1287hp and its american. americans and ONLY americans make 8000+hp automotive engines-europe isnt in the same league. as for getting around a corner the ACR, ZR1, SSC, and Saleen S7 done spanked europe in the twisties.
@304teddy the ultima isnt a kit car, its a production car. i could go and buy 1 right now already built for £65k if i had the money. and it will embarrass he ACR, ZR1, SSC and S7 in the corners, and on a 1/4 mile, fact. and it will out brake them all aswel. and at £65k its alot cheaper than the SSC at £301k, the S7 at £361k, and slightly cheaper than the ACR and ZR1.. nothing can out corner the ultima
give it a month or 2 and something will come out thats faster.
oh and btw in most places that cars not even legal. it doesnt even have reverse lights let alone an extra 500-1000 lbs of safety equipment like air bags, correct bumpers etc. that you need to legalize it in the states.
does the car even have air conditioning, radio, comfortable seats, etc like our cars do? i bet not.
this car is just a race car made to be legal in EU. the zr1, ssc, and acr are street cars that can go fast.
@inuchan187 why cant u get in ur head, the ultima is street legal, its a road car. and yes the ultima can have air conditioning etc.. boring on a cruise? its a sports car its not made for cruising motorways.. its made for going everywhere fast, cornering well and lookin good... which it does better than anythin american
add all of that stuff to the GTR720 and theres no way that it could get anywhere near the zr1 and the acr let alone the ssc and s7. an average person would never want to drive the gtr720 because it would just get fairly uncomfortable and boring during a cruise unlike the american cars.
@dan19evans And guess what motor is in the Ultima.... It's a Chevy. The 1700+hp Keating TKR is even more nasty than the Ultima, and what do you know.... it's got a Chevy engine too. Do you see the trend?
@stlchucko Yes I know they both have a Chevy engine, but they're not standard engines by far. The reason they both use a Chevy engine is because both companies are very small and cannot afford to develop their own engine. And both of these small companies can make that engine go round a corner faster than Chevy themselves, which are part of one of the biggest car producers in the world. How embarrassing...
@dan19evans What's embarrassing about a company selling stock 500+hp car that pulls over 1G on a skidpad and has a 100k mile warrantee... not to mention that independent companies use GM's V8 motor to power their $100k+ supercars. They could have used any motor, but they went with the GM.
Besides, the Ultima doesn't pass any of the government mandated crash tests the Corvette is required to pass since it's pretty much a kit car that can be bought just like any Factory Five car; sans drivetrain.
There is always something bigger, badder and faster. And with enough money I could modify a F150 to out handle a Formula 1 car. Or a 3cyl geo to outrun a Bugatti. So what? Until I do it just talk.
@Warblade118 I'm not (sorry, wasn't - that reply was from nearly a year ago..) being 'brand loyal', just correcting people who wrongly think that the american cars that mentioned in my previous comment are the fastest thing out there, because they're clearly not.
Obviously if you had enough money, like you said, you could make something like an F150 ridiculously fast. But you would have to replace so many parts that it couldn't be classed as an F150 anymore...
@dan19evans Right. But when you say things like "better than any American car" is what provoked the "there is always something bigger and badder" comment I made. The Ultima is a great car, no doubt. But I'm sure there is another car out there a little faster, a little quicker in the corners, etc. The FFR GTR for example btw,I just checked their site, isn't the Ultima normally Chevy powered anyways? So it seems the Ultima owes a fair chunk of its performance to a Chevy? Strange.
@Warblade118 Yes but the engine is far from standard. The main reason why Ultima mostly use Chevy engines is because they are a small company who canot afford to develop an engine. Also, the Chevy engine is very tuneable making it an obvious choice. Besides, whats the point in having the power if you can't make it go roud corners?
My point was mostly based on cornering abilities anyway. Also, I don't see why you're reviving somethig from a year ago..
@dan19evans Sorry if I'm bothering you. Your comment from 11 months ago are in the highest rated comment section right out in the open. If you don't want to talk about it, so be it. Later.
ford-manufacturers champion in rally numerous times. saleen S7 holds ther lemans lap record for production cars. the corvette is owning everybody in GT1/GT2. D1-are you fucking serious?-thats isnt even racing moron. under 4 seconds? ZR1,Z06,Ford GT,Viper SR10,Viper ACR,Shelby SS,SSC UA(also the worlds fastest production car). the ZR1 and ACR also went to germany(nurburgring) and pissed on the porsces/bmws/ferraris/koenigsegg(which needs an american engine to go fast)/lambos/paganis
You must not be keeping up on lap times, sounds like you PICK your information.
Fact: of the top ten Nurburgring times, only 1 American car places. Of the top 25 its only 2. The one car in the top ten, the Viper ACR, was modified extensively for the event, and was running competition, not DOT tires.
Look at Top Gear times, first American car is 18th! ZR1 is slower then the GTR is most testing. HOW CAN THAT BE???????
fact#1-WRONG. Radical's SR8(and LM), being sold along the USA's west coast now, is the FASTEST Road-legal car. to quote-"In Aug.2009 Michael Vergers, driving an SR8LM, set a new lap record (6 min, 48 sec) for road legal cars at the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit.
fact#2-FALSE; Motor Trend confirmed, Hardcore Package option, suspension adjustments, aero adjustments, no DOT tires confirmed.
Fact#3-GTR had NO mods, coming within miliseconds less.
Fact #1-this heres the US loser and the radical is NOT a street legal production car
Fact #2-the ACR comes with adjustable suspension and adjustable aero so obviuosly any real racer would adjust them dumbass. also who confirmed the DOT tires on the gumpert, radical-see the door swings both ways dumbass.
Fact #3 how do you know what mods the GTR had or didnt have? an F1 driver with thousands of laps in the GTR couldnt beat an engineer in the ZR1 with little practice.
Not only that, but if the BMW E46 CSL Loaded wasn't such a scary-ass car, and deemed "unsafe" in the USA, it'd be the fastest, since it's road-legal everywhere else but here. it clocked 7:22:09, 532hp; ACR clocked 7:22:1! A 550hp GTR Spec-V clocked 3 seconds less, beating your lovely 638hp C6 ZR1 and the Enzo, merely to display that IF they wanted to, they could assrape Chevy, but chose not to. You'll never learn: It aint about the horses.
the ACR is faster than either on any track and has been setting track records right and left for production street cars. how can that be-you ask? we're just that good.

psychoninja911 1 year ago
@psychoninja911 I was very "specific". I said low 4 second hemi. You show me any 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder "hemi" that powers a dragster to 4 seconds. Second, I never said the 4 cylinders weren't loud. Unfortunately the little 4 bangers "are" loud, and annoying! They sound like crap! They pop and bang and weeze. That's not cool sounding to me. I'd rather listen to my girlfriend yelling at me than listen to a souped up 4 cylinder.
mine1username 1 year ago
@mine1username Pop and banging... That sounds like a few things. First I'll start with rev limiter. Next could be bad tuning. Back firing all together. Unburned fuel. Also could be this trick where - clutch all the way in turns the car off (keeps turbo spooling) when you release the clutch the car turns on. I know a lot dsm guys that do this and it leaves a lot of unburned fuel that pops when you floor it again.
The weezing - is a turbo sound. Look up Larry Larson on youtube. Weezy turbo v8.
psychoninja911 1 year ago
@mine1username And for the hemi comment. Not sure - did you watch this video and notice the cylinder walls here? I'm sure there's one out there where they cut the cylinders out of a solid block of aluminum.
These 4 cylinders are SAFER as well. This dragster will sound about the same as any. The human ear can only hear 120db. Dragsters produce 194+db of sound accelerating. 120+db at idle. Therefor, at idle your human ears will only pick up distortion after they accelerate.
psychoninja911 1 year ago
@psychoninja911 I wear ear plugs when I go to the top fuel or funny car races anyway. Besides, the sound is well within the frequency range that humans can pick up. I gaurantee you I can tell the difference. The bottom line is this- This 4 cylinder is one hell of a peace of engineering, no doubt. However it would be extremely annoying to watch this thing going 5 or 6 seconds in the 1/4. It won't draw the excitement that V8 will bring. I have heard some 6 cylinders that I like, I'll admit.

@mine1username The sound is not within human's range of hearing. 120db (give or take 10 or less). I fancied car audio for like 6 years competitively. I know about where anyone's hearing stops in dB.
And you haven't even heard this 4 cylinder run yet. If I'm correct, normal dragsters power their turbos with EXHAUST, which muffles the sound a good deal. This dragster dumps the exhaust and powers the turbo with nitrous. Nitrous powered turbo leaves the exhaust sound to be deafening.
psychoninja911 1 year ago
@mine1username This is a over 4liters 4 cylinder... Which means it's got a 4 cylinder the size of a mustangs v8.... It's not going to sound like what you think it will.
And I go to the races to see fast cars. I'm a car enthusiast. Not an Engine Cylinder Count loyalist... If this car showed up at the track, my heart would race to see what it could do to engines twice it's size (even though it packs double the technology).
psychoninja911 1 year ago
@psychoninja911 You keep implying I am referring to loundness. It's the pulses that sound so horible on a 4 cylinder. See what the car will do to engines twice it's size huh? I have the answer for you already. The 500 cubic inch top fuel motors are about 8 liters, and are almost twice as fast as what they claim this 4 cylinder will do in a funny car body. To each his own I guess.

@3codyh with 20k dude you could build way beyond 300-400 hp lol. and 4500 pounds lol were are you getting your numbers lol. on a b series you can get a little over 300hp with some money and it will fly and ya there light. and most camaros and mustangs are only 3500 pounds. STIs weigh close to that lol. corvettes weigh about 3000 or less but put out 700-800hp and over 1000 with boost lol. so wheres your argument n/a 4s maybe run 9s at best

ya and the newer ones weigh almost 3400 and thats close to 3500 right LOL. and i know they can run 9s all motor i said that its because civics are light. the weight power ratio n/a starts giving the advantage to the v8 cars. i may be a little off but to run 9s all motor civic you would have to around 350hp give or take correct me if im wrong and there about 2400 give or take well a corvette is only 500 pounds heaver but is capable of double that. whos gunna win boost evens the playing field.

If you guys wanna be pricks:
1862 - Alphonse Beau de Rochas, a French civil engineer, patented but did not build a four-stroke engine (French patent #52,593, January 16, 1862).
1866 - German engineers, Eugen Langen and Nikolaus August Otto improved on Lenoir's and de Rochas' designs and invented a more efficient gas engine.
1876 - Nikolaus August Otto invented and later patented a successful four-stroke engine, known as the "Otto cycle".
America was still stuck on 2-stroke, you assholes.

In all technicality, it really is just a bigass 5.0L(or 4.8-watev) B18.

Even though the guy on this video is very very smart to make a 4 cylinder do what he want's it to, it is machined out of a solid chunk of billet aluminum.

does the car even have air conditioning, radio, comfortable seats, etc like our cars do? i bet not.

Besides, the Ultima doesn't pass any of the government mandated crash tests the Corvette is required to pass since it's pretty much a kit car that can be bought just like any Factory Five car; sans drivetrain.

Does it hurt to be that brand loyal?
There is always something bigger, badder and faster. And with enough money I could modify a F150 to out handle a Formula 1 car. Or a 3cyl geo to outrun a Bugatti. So what? Until I do it just talk.

@Warblade118 I'm not (sorry, wasn't - that reply was from nearly a year ago..) being 'brand loyal', just correcting people who wrongly think that the american cars that mentioned in my previous comment are the fastest thing out there, because they're clearly not.
Obviously if you had enough money, like you said, you could make something like an F150 ridiculously fast. But you would have to replace so many parts that it couldn't be classed as an F150 anymore...

@dan19evans Right. But when you say things like "better than any American car" is what provoked the "there is always something bigger and badder" comment I made. The Ultima is a great car, no doubt. But I'm sure there is another car out there a little faster, a little quicker in the corners, etc. The FFR GTR for example btw,I just checked their site, isn't the Ultima normally Chevy powered anyways? So it seems the Ultima owes a fair chunk of its performance to a Chevy? Strange.

@Warblade118 Yes but the engine is far from standard. The main reason why Ultima mostly use Chevy engines is because they are a small company who canot afford to develop an engine. Also, the Chevy engine is very tuneable making it an obvious choice. Besides, whats the point in having the power if you can't make it go roud corners?
My point was mostly based on cornering abilities anyway. Also, I don't see why you're reviving somethig from a year ago..

@dan19evans Sorry if I'm bothering you. Your comment from 11 months ago are in the highest rated comment section right out in the open. If you don't want to talk about it, so be it. Later.

ford-manufacturers champion in rally numerous times. saleen S7 holds ther lemans lap record for production cars. the corvette is owning everybody in GT1/GT2. D1-are you fucking serious?-thats isnt even racing moron. under 4 seconds? ZR1,Z06,Ford GT,Viper SR10,Viper ACR,Shelby SS,SSC UA(also the worlds fastest production car). the ZR1 and ACR also went to germany(nurburgring) and pissed on the porsces/bmws/ferraris/koenigsegg(which needs an american engine to go fast)/lambos/paganis

You must not be keeping up on lap times, sounds like you PICK your information.
Fact: of the top ten Nurburgring times, only 1 American car places. Of the top 25 its only 2. The one car in the top ten, the Viper ACR, was modified extensively for the event, and was running competition, not DOT tires.
Look at Top Gear times, first American car is 18th! ZR1 is slower then the GTR is most testing. HOW CAN THAT BE???????

fact-the ONLY road legal production car faster then the ACR is the gumpert apollo
fact-the ACR Viper was ran with stock tires and ALL stock equipment just as it comes from the dealership including DOT approved tires-NO MODS.
Fact-the ZR1 is in sixth place ahead of the gtr-(the gtr is the one that needed mods to turn a quick time).
Fact-watching top gear for factual knowledge is like fucking for virginity
Fact-you should stop getting your "facts" from fastnfurious fagboy sites.

fact#1-WRONG. Radical's SR8(and LM), being sold along the USA's west coast now, is the FASTEST Road-legal car. to quote-"In Aug.2009 Michael Vergers, driving an SR8LM, set a new lap record (6 min, 48 sec) for road legal cars at the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit.
fact#2-FALSE; Motor Trend confirmed, Hardcore Package option, suspension adjustments, aero adjustments, no DOT tires confirmed.
Fact#3-GTR had NO mods, coming within miliseconds less.
Fact#4- The Stigg drives better than you.

Fact #1-this heres the US loser and the radical is NOT a street legal production car
Fact #2-the ACR comes with adjustable suspension and adjustable aero so obviuosly any real racer would adjust them dumbass. also who confirmed the DOT tires on the gumpert, radical-see the door swings both ways dumbass.
Fact #3 how do you know what mods the GTR had or didnt have? an F1 driver with thousands of laps in the GTR couldnt beat an engineer in the ZR1 with little practice.

Not only that, but if the BMW E46 CSL Loaded wasn't such a scary-ass car, and deemed "unsafe" in the USA, it'd be the fastest, since it's road-legal everywhere else but here. it clocked 7:22:09, 532hp; ACR clocked 7:22:1! A 550hp GTR Spec-V clocked 3 seconds less, beating your lovely 638hp C6 ZR1 and the Enzo, merely to display that IF they wanted to, they could assrape Chevy, but chose not to. You'll never learn: It aint about the horses.

laguna seca
GTR=1:40
ZR1=1:35
Las Vegas road course
GTR=58
ZR1=56
streets of willow
GTR=1:25
ZR1=1:23
the ACR is faster than either on any track and has been setting track records right and left for production street cars. how can that be-you ask? we're just that good.
