that nova has well over 40,000 in it, im sure he wasnt happy when a little 4cyl was running not that much slower than him, it was just awesome that we could be doing that good in such a little car that had only been driven atmost 23miles in like 6yrs, and all that was done was clean it up, change oil, charge battery, and put new spark plugs in it

^ yes, it is, but for the esteem having like max 100hp, and by looking at the old oil its closer to 80's, and the nove putting out probably 550+ and being completely built for this type of stuff vs a stock little car that has been through hell and back, its pretty impressive if you think about it

well it kinda is but its not bad, considering the engine difference and that there were two big guys in a 4 cylinder and 1 smaller person in and 8 cylinder making well over double the hp and touque that the 4 cylinder is

I had a little 72 T-yota that I drove like I stole every time I fired it up. That thing took some serious abuse. Probably the most fun I've ever had. I used to make it backfire all the time and scare the crap out of people. It was like a bomb, ha ha. Have fun with that car and be safe....within reason.

:lol: Did you shut it off while driving, press the accelerator a few times, hit the clutch, put it in first, then dump the clutch? then BOOOM!

Shoot, had an old clunker 79 280zx that when on it's last leg, was popping between shifts(thermostat was stuck open; fuel injected, stayed on choke all times). Finally fixed the thermostat when it backfired really hard and somebody said something came out the tailpipe. No one could show me what came out, but I went ahead and fixed so not to get TOO much hatred. It's always fun till somebody gets hit by shrapnel!!! :D
