Re: what cars has your City left for dead!!
Gave a Evo 1 a scare. Pulled up beside them at the lights and they were laughing away at the wee city, the lights changed and I took off normally to get some traction then planted boot. He was struggling to pull ahead and that was with a stuck wastegate on my car.

Re: what cars has your City left for dead!!
wow....havent posted on here for a while... but this thread looks interesting..... shows what the old city turbos are capable of.
As madcty pointed out.... my old green t2 was definetly not a lil car to be fcuked with.... the day that i went to buy it it still had a big fuckoff nos bottle in place of the spare tire but the guy wanted like $3500 so i told him to get rid of his nos and bought it for $1800 which was an awesome deal. With only the condition being that the owner was to keep the extra fuel injector. (took a week to organise)
Within that week i had a race with a modded WRX on the motorway (he had a front mount and exhaust from what i saw anyway) i came from an onramp and boosted it hard (car was running 20psi) up to 120 then slowed down to 90 when he pulled up next to me and chopped down..... i thought.....nah u dont..... chopped to third and off we went...... throughout the revrange my car just kept pulling hard and by the time we hit 140-150 i was about 2-3 city car lengths infront of him..
Once the injector was off i was restricted to boosting 14.5 psi which with this setup was still pretty damn fast. Was just cruizing to tech and dis guy comes up and says "wanna race my GTX" i was like hell ya. He was boosting 15psi as well. Went on the motorway slowed down to 70 and went for it..... my car was just insane.... it kept spinning up 3rd gear all the way trhough.....even still we were pretty even.
Then we took an offramp and went back and the road was dry and did the same thing..... and i beat him..... he was not very impressed at all.
Those are just the 2 races against bigger turbo cars.... used to eat VTEC civics and integras all day everyday.
I dont think it was the fastest but i never once backed away from a race and the only thing that came close to beating me was a gts25t auto skyline.
That city made way to fund my new car which is a GTs25t sedan which has been converted to manual and has had a fair bit of work done on it and does low 13s.
Damn i miss that lil car..... the look on peoples faces when they see a rollcage and a front mount in a city is just priceless....
