Been thinking my car was feeling SLOW lately.
I don't know what's been up. I thought my car has been feeling tired lately. Just wondering if 30k and the motor starts to lose power or what? Don't know if it's in my head since I took the big wing and scoop off it "looks slower". I changed from 5w30 Mobile 1 to 10w30 this weekend to see if my motor felt any different and plus it was time the oil be changed. I was hoping this would make me feel a little better. Took it for a drive Sunday, still felt kinda doggy. Well I guess I was wrong. HAHAHA
NOT STREET RACING
So I happen to pull up to a red light on a closed private track at the same time a 350Z with at least exhaust on his car. He had some rims, car was clean. I couldn't help being a total ricer and reving @ him.
He looked at what he thought was a pretty stock looking WRX and kinda snickered at me. Yes he really snickered. So it is a little wet out and I to myself "poor guy" as I build boost in my tiny tarby. We went at it, I didn't even launch and pulled him 1st, 2nd and by third I was at least a full car if not moar.
So he is like "double U tea eFF m8" and this time at the next light he is reving like me So I try to launch a little and spin yadda yadda spin (Ziex 512'a re officially done!) dump rpm into second (didn't have traction when I shifted 1st-2nd) and still pulled him by almost a car by third. Dude wasn't happy as I turned I saw him get kinda squirlly burning out through 1st and 2nd. Hahaha picking on the poor Nissan with only RWD in the rain. I am such a bully.
So cliffs notes = I guess my car isn't loosing powa.
