Dirty Frank 12-23-2005, 09:58 PM Real nice...
Shame about the 4 doors... 2 door would be much nicer...
The colours not nice either... but apart from that it's cool...

The 2 door is in the works to be released in march based on the C70 body.
That model also comes in black and red.
Paul Robinson 12-24-2005, 09:02 AM shame you dont have one ;) better looking grill than you though
2006 civic type-r sub 6sec 0-60 should be fun.
where did you get the idea that thats a standard car due for release?
Tw!stEd 12-24-2005, 02:12 PM I wouldn't mind that....
Could use a better looking exhaust....
But other then thaty, reminds me of some tuner BMW's I've seen...
Paul Robinson 12-24-2005, 02:18 PM http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/powerlaps/
the civic type-r is about a second slower on a track than the current s60R before you start-up the bullshit again, not bad considering its the cheapest car on both pages by far. and the civic is only 0.3 seconds slower than a vanquish v12 :eek:
J.Griff 12-24-2005, 03:14 PM where did you get the idea that thats a standard car due for release?
Not an idea. Already for sale. Evolve is a volvo endorsed company. They preety much are the 2000+ R-sport division. This car is can be ordered threw your dealer.

Your comparing a shoe box with a gokart engine bolted into it, to a high power luxary sport sedan?
Stop being retarted.
Paul Robinson 12-25-2005, 05:45 AM and in the process of not making any progress, you can't spell. :eek:
the volvo may be a 'luxary' sedan but it has shit loads more power and has very little on the track against my go-kart.
J.Griff 12-25-2005, 10:17 PM and in the process of not making any progress, you can't spell. :eek:
the volvo may be a 'luxary' sedan but it has shit loads more power and has very little on the track against my go-kart.
Luxary sport sedan. Get it right. Your go kart is a shit box with a "peppy" motor. Please stop trying to save face, the car is crap. There is a reason they are so cheap. Mabey when you grow up and relize what a mans car is truley like you will look outsde the shitbox.
We both know why your civic is peppy and its not becuase its "fast" its becuase its light. The s60r only has 300hp and its set up for top end and iit is ALOT slower the the Evolve S60R. If you have driven a true tunner vehicle
you would relize that everytime you post you just convince me a lil bit more that you have NO TRUE automotive knowldge.
J.Griff 12-25-2005, 10:25 PM and in the process of not making any progress, you can't spell. :eek:
Yet my non spelling self
1. Makes more money then you.
2. Has more built and stock cars then you.
3. Has 10000x's more automotive know how and experince then you.
Some How i still seem to get by.

Hmmmm where to start ok.
1. S60r 5cyl turbo is actuly .6 faster then ya civic due to its tunning {opx 1200 pounds more then civic}.
2. S40 evolve 4cyl sport sedan {800 lbs more then the civic}is 1.1 seconds faster in the 0-60 and 2.8
faster in the 0-100. Hence you car would finish about 3 seconds slower in the 1/4 mile.
If you know anything about cars you would relize 3 sec's is HUGE.
Both 4 cyl cars both fwd except the S40 is a family car.
Your civic is in a class with Neons lancers focus's. Not even near the class volvo has made for them selves.
Paul Robinson 12-26-2005, 07:21 AM Yet my non spelling self

wow...and yet i have furiously more talent than you have
am working with artists and well known producers.
I have a car that cost 17,000 when new and its one of the best n/a car acheivements in its class ever so i dont know how or why its a shit car?
am considerably better looking
am much younger and potentially have a much better carrer than you
and will probably buy something faster than you currently own when i can afford insurance
i don't care about the evolve, i'm talking about the current s60r.
volvo aren't in a class of their own stfu.
they're second to BMW, MERCEDES etc.
tuner alley is the only place where you hold a position of power anywhere no doubt. your're prolly just a lowly mechanic with constantly oily hands and blue jumpsuit. i'm not impressed
And hahahahahahaha at the civic not being a true tuner vehicle....they're are probably the most common choice and people often get unbelieveable results with turbo's etc...how is a volvo a true tuner vehicle lmmfao..
i don't give af fuck how may cars etc you have, your still 33 and married with kids. i don't strive to buy shitey american muscle cars and volvos just because they have more power, i've gone for a lightweight hothatch which never goes wrong and frequently surprises much more powerful cars.
next me and a friend are going to take on and DC2 integra type-r and do the works to it which should end up being quite a fun car
Paul Robinson 12-26-2005, 11:59 AM anyway be patient and watch this video and see where the civic type-r comes in the race good bye.

J.Griff 12-26-2005, 01:05 PM I have a car that cost 17,000 when new and its one of the best n/a car acheivements in its class ever so i dont know how or why its a shit car?
Actualy the best N/A car in its class would be the ford focus witch has the volvo N/A 6cyl witch will also be offerd with a single turbo and awd system borrowed from the S40 AWD set up.
am considerably better looking
Ok you can win that one. We all know im not preety
am much younger and potentially have a much better carrer than you
and will probably buy something faster than you currently own when i can afford insurance
Uhm your 2 years younger then me and you cant afford insurance? Doesnt sound like your doing to well there.
i don't care about the evolve, i'm talking about the current s60r.
volvo aren't in a class of their own stfu.
they're second to BMW, MERCEDES etc.
Name one Bmw or Mercedes that has made 1 million miles on the original engine. Find me info on 1 of either of those that has done that.
Let alone the 7 volvo has. Like i said class by them selves.
tuner alley is the only place where you hold a position of power anywhere no doubt. your're prolly just a lowly mechanic with constantly oily hands and blue jumpsuit. i'm not impressed
Actualy you would be wrong again. I teach for volvo of north america in Rockliegh N.Y. I was a certified Master tech by the age of 19. I also hold a Supervisor position for U.P.S where i am responsiable for 118 outbound employee's and 130,000 to 160,00 packages being processed scanned and loaded into 27 different loads for 16 countys and 3 states.
No position of power. Once again LMFAO
And hahahahahahaha at the civic not being a true tuner vehicle....they're are probably the most common choice and people often get unbelieveable results with turbo's etc...how is a volvo a true tuner vehicle lmmfao..
Please show me a street legal 1000hp honda/acura/mazda/focus/neon ect ect ect. I will give you toyota but show me one of any of the rest.
i don't give af fuck how may cars etc you have, your still 33 and married with kids. i don't strive to buy shitey american muscle cars and volvos just because they have more power, i've gone for a lightweight hothatch which never goes wrong and frequently surprises much more powerful cars.
Nice job qouting someone a 2 year old diss track from someone else.
Once again wrong on the age but nice try. Also not married and i conider my kids to be another acomplishment. I dont buy american muscle cars either?
I buy volvo becuase i have hit a tree at 110 with no seatbelt and lived. I buy volvos becuase i love them. They personaly have not offered a "sports car" since 1983 untill recently and i have driven them since i learned how to drive.
Your hot hatch has constant problems when modified this is why to make one truley fast you have to replace dam near everything in them. Hence why the car is not a true tunner vehicle.
next me and a friend are going to take on and DC2 integra type-r and do the works to it which should end up being quite a fun car
Once again you have posted insignificant facts and childish comments and have yet to say a relevant thing.
Paul Robinson 12-26-2005, 01:43 PM Actualy the best N/A car in its class would be the ford focus witch has the volvo N/A 6cyl witch will also be offerd with a single turbo and awd system borrowed from the S40 AWD set up.
we don't have that so thats insignificant, the ctr is better overall than the Ford Focus RS which
is closest thing i can think of that you would be on about.
i mean in this country.
plus it's a V6 so over here that isn't in the same class i'm afraid.
(by the way the type-r civic has the same engine as an RSX type-s)
The Focus RS is faster than a CTR round a track but even Jeremy Clarkson himself said that the Civic type-r is his favourite hot hatch and it got a pretty outstanding review from TOPGEAR and 120,000,000 people watch it each week.
Ok you can win that one. We all know im not preety
i'm sorry i said that, i stepped out of line.
Uhm your 2 years younger then me and you cant afford insurance? Doesnt sound like your doing to well there.
insurance is completely different over here, for example, i was 20 when i got my type-r which, over here is a big thing for someone my age, ask any of the UK peeps on here. I forked out £3000 for my first year.....see what i mean lol.
What i would like is going to cost me £5000 at least (evo 6/ integra dc5)
Name one Bmw or Mercedes that has made 1 million miles on the original engine. Find me info on 1 of either of those that has done that.
Let alone the 7 volvo has. Like i said class by them selves.
Im sorry but i still think that mercs and Bmw's are much nicer cars although i will vouch for Volvo's lasting for ever as my dad owns a 440 xi with 140,000 miles on it and still going strong. plus i'd like to see this 1 million miler that you claim exists.
Actualy you would be wrong again. I teach for volvo of north america in Rockliegh N.Y. I was a certified Master tech by the age of 19. I also hold a Supervisor position for U.P.S where i am responsiable for 118 outbound employee's and 130,000 to 160,00 packages being processed scanned and loaded into 27 different loads for 16 countys and 3 states.
No position of power. Once again LMFAO
Say what you like but i can never be sure what is true and what isn't.
Look, if all goes well this coming march i will have succesfully produced remixed and mastered an album featuring two tracks from one of Britains top producers and also have been in a music video with One Icon so god knows what will happen in two years ay.
Please show me a street legal 1000hp honda/acura/mazda/focus/neon ect ect ect. I will give you toyota but show me one of any of the rest.
i could have a look but i don't get why you want me to. i mean some of the cars you mentioned only need 700-800 bhp max to make a fully tuned volvo look silly and i'm sure there is a volvo......well....somewhere that can do the same.
remember RX7's and the likes weigh nothing and have much smaller engines......again i don't see why i should.
Nice job qouting someone a 2 year old diss track from someone else.

once again i couldn't help myself with that diss track thing.
my car has little if any at all problems when being tuned ....and i promise you this, i've been on the forum for long enough to know this.
I have also met some of the members who have done a lot to their cars and can tell you that the K20A engine block has never gone wrong for anyone and neither have their engine mechanics. only once when someone didn't top up their oil....
i mean that vid i posted is proof enouh that for what it is, it is a great car and is very exciting even as standard.
Once again you have posted insignificant facts and childish comments and have yet to say a relevant thing.
the last comment wasn't childish i was just laying down to you what i want to do.
Writeoff 12-27-2005, 02:02 AM A nismo production nissan skyline has about 1500 Hp Stock :O :O
to me is all about what i want to get.... i dont like volvos so i wont ever get one...
I got a 2000 Si an i'm loven it... sure it's only 170 ish with one mod done (it came with the car when i bought it) but i walked all over a shit load of focus "saleens", Other modifyed Si's, Sentras spec-v, trans am, mustangs that i took by 7 car's... i get shit all the time cos i have one... but when they hear my engine go they want to know whats done...an i do show them cos i have no intentions of hustling... i'll win due to driver skill...or lose due to driver skill...
Yeah my buddy's had trouble with there cars when they modified it only cos they didint take it to the menchanics... but a properly tuned civic can go fast..
as my buddy say's "Stock sucks no matter what it is."
but what ever.....
anyways.... civics are just cars for people in around our age to afford play with and have fun with... thats why i got one... if i wanted to shell out 30G's i would gotten a supra, IS300 , IS350, Evo 8 MR, STI, an so forth...

lol i hate that you brought up Clarkson. Cause i love that guy and find it hard to argue this now that you brought him up.. But i will try lol.
Il admit that honda has come along way since thier entrance as a shitbox econo car. I will probably look at them the same untill they build somthing fatory that deserves the name tunner car. Please understand that i have been a car guy since i was a car kid.
Im suprised that you havnt gotten that focus yet as it is available for purchess with the volvo na 6 and 5cyl turbo in a fwd and awd config.
Even though the awd system is volvo and more of a Visca system {gay awd}.
vvvvv In this version they use lpt volvo engine like 9:5.1 compression and mild boost. Probably like 6 psi @221hp . Funny thing is they are TELLING customers about the fact volvo runs 13psi on this engine and the stock volvo ecu witch is plug n play in the focus can handle this.
http://www.channel4.com/4car/best-in-class/hot-hatchbacks.html

I agree they are nicer cars but you have to understand even you put them in that class. But im sorry to say to get a comparable merc bmw you would spend alot more then you would on a volvo. Yet everybody including you put them in that class..
Say what you like but i can never be sure what is true and what isn't.
Look, if all goes well this coming march i will have succesfully produced remixed and mastered an album featuring two tracks from one of Britains top producers and also have been in a music video with One Icon so god knows what will happen in two years ay.
lol I dont do a fucking thing unless its profitable to me. Garuntee you that.
I wish you guys Fame fortune and nothing but the best. i hope at another time we can have this debate "at a later time" so you may have a chance to win. But as for now financially you are a pesent to me.
i could have a look but i don't get why you want me to. i mean some of the cars you mentioned only need 700-800 bhp max to make a fully tuned volvo look silly and i'm sure there is a volvo......well....somewhere that can do the same.
remember RX7's and the likes weigh nothing and have much smaller engines......again i don't see why i should.
The point im trying to make is a true tunner vehicle is car that was built to
handle high H.P with out the need of rebuilding the vehicle. BMW,Audi,Jaguar,Volvo,Mercedes thesse cars dont require you to replace engine internals, differentials tranny's and can all still be completley streetable with 6-7 horsepower.
You cant do either with the cars i requested. If you bring up the NSX i will laugh at you. The car has always been fast but they flat out suck when you want to drive it. The whole set creates somthng like a 65-35 weight split. the car handles like a wet dog on a waxed floor.
The nismo is a god dam SKYLINE that goes with out saying. But unfourtantly is not availbe to be registerd here.

Thesse engines can not handle more then 6-7 psi on a well turnned motor with out replacing engine internals. Then you even if you get to laying in some high compression and or high boost with out having a but load of traction problems. And from what i have read/researched close to or over 300hp and you need to have ya trannys beefed. This does not sound like a true tunner vehicle to me.
i mean that vid i posted is proof enouh that for what it is, it is a great car and is very exciting even as standard.
I dont like downloading off the net from someone im argueing with. Hope ya understand .
Il guess its some spec class racing vid of a honda dominating the pack.
Some even do well against the 1.8 beemers. Now if you want il go post some bttc class volvo races where they pee on every type of euro car there is and win 19 out of 22 races for like 4 seasons.
I am building a scca car that i hope to race with in the 2006 eastern season.
Only like 6 races il be able to make but still should be fun. I will be completing in a 1984 volvo 242 with a B234 16valve {stroked 2.3 to 2.5}. 170 N/a hp stock but i should see at least 20-25 hp from the stroke.

thats pretty bad but for one car, £3000 ($5800) is horrific and it's because they frequently get stolen at petrol stations and the keys taken from peoples houses. thieves use them to get away from cops over here because they're fast, easy to drive and have loads of luguage space....so there you have it, it's the british theives' choice

Anyway, to save you the effort. The integra type-r comes first the Subaru impreza wrx comes second and right up its arse the civic type-r is there. followed by rx-8, lexus is, and various small shitters.

That is the typical response to a 3 million mile car. lol
lol yea i forgot you said ya dad had a 440. Some of the euro volvos did get reanult engines. The only engine we got in the states with a reanult engine where the 6cyl 240 {WITCH SUCK FAT BALLS} witch have a PRV Porsche Reanult Volvo designed engine.
Just also a quick note the head on all whiteblock engine {fwd motors} was designed by porsche and manufactured by volvo.

btw, ill dont argue with ricers.
