I've got: Gran Turismorator - 27% fest30.gif

1) I put 2" exhaust on stock civic engine (less back pressure)
2) White stuff in your coolant - bad head gasket (oil+coolant)
3) which one is the "vtec" for nissans - I put something like AVC...blah. Eyecrazy.gif
4) wtf is fender rolling - didn't know what is put and put necessary (maybe for wider tires)
5) handling characteristic - it really depends on a racing type (rally, track...) , surface (snow, asphalt) , etc. I put overstearing.

what did you put for right order?
I thoght about: Intake, Compression, Power, Exhaust. - like cycles of 4stroke engine. But there was no such option confused.gif

PS. crappy bumper for $0.99 and power stuff for $999.01 rofl3.gif

PSS. smiles are fun cool.gif boobies.gif

Ok so i took it again and again, best i could get was 3%

Correct answers to semi-tricky questions(long and tedious process of elimination)

AWD standard Sports car

oversteer or understeer is right according to this guy

its a cycle mang so it can start anywhere -> P,E, I, C

Fender rolling is stupid

VVL

Blown Head Gasket, (Been there, done that)

Bilstein or Garrett

Mad Torque chirp tires

Hp is a function of those two

8.5-10.5 compression (duh)

250hp Civic w. suspension mods

Either- thats a bullshit warning or i hate that movie

Filter, TC, UP, IC, CC, DP, exhaust

The worst score i could get was a 77%-> apc whore; if you dont answer any questions at all your a non racer ->>51%

The Non-Racer
You scored 43%
One of two things happened if you received this rating. Either you know absolutely nothing about tuner culture and chose "no idea" often. In this case, i guess i could say congratulations, but really you wasted your time taking this test...actually this test is a waste of time for everyone. The second option is a little rarer. You must be someone that knows a lot about either mechanics or racing, but jack about the other subject....or you're just guessing. Either way, congratulations....you're mediocre...but still not a ricer, for which you should be thankful

Racer X
You scored 20% Congratulations. You are the real thing. Chances are you could tear down your engine and put it back together in a weekend. You know a decent amount about racing dynamics. The "FATHF" culture has been a bane to your existence since you've been in the game for years before that horrid movie was released. Auto-x, drag racing, track time, you know enough to not sound like an ass while talking about it, and you can probably hold your own on the track too. Race on, good citizen, for you are a true Racer.

You scored higher than 72% on ricegrains
