Why I hate Hondaswap.

[TheOriginalJames]

I want a little more range out of my car. 27-30 miles to a tank. Why is that hard to comprehend? So I asked if a GSR tank would fit into a 2000 Civic...

http://www.hondaswap.com/forums/ind...&showtopic=58651&pid=554967&st=0&#entry554967

Now, half joking here I IMd the owner of Hondaswap and he starts to get fucking pissy with me towards the end.


revolution8k (5:28:06 PM): so would a gsr gas tank fit in a 2000 civic?
pissedoffsol (5:28:19 PM): how the fuck would i know
revolution8k (5:28:26 PM): you know all.
pissedoffsol (5:28:35 PM): hardly
revolution8k (5:28:35 PM): pissedoffGod
pissedoffsol (5:28:39 PM): make a freakin post
revolution8k (5:28:41 PM): I did.
revolution8k (5:28:49 PM): i kept getting "why would you want to do that"
revolution8k (5:28:53 PM): instead of answers
pissedoffsol (5:29:18 PM): try exaplaining WHY then
revolution8k (5:29:23 PM): i did.
revolution8k (5:29:30 PM): John even backed me up.
revolution8k (5:29:31 PM): http://www.hondaswap.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=58651
pissedoffsol (5:29:32 PM): well then why are you bitching to me?
revolution8k (5:29:39 PM): i wanted to see if you knew
pissedoffsol (5:29:39 PM): chrsit. get some part numbers
pissedoffsol (5:29:43 PM): if they match, it will fit
pissedoffsol (5:29:47 PM): if they don't it probably wont
pissedoffsol (5:30:10 PM): why the fuck do you need a gas tank anyway
revolution8k (5:30:20 PM): i want one with a larger capacity.
pissedoffsol (5:30:52 PM): just buy a freaking DX already
pissedoffsol (5:30:57 PM): put some altezzas on it
pissedoffsol (5:31:00 PM): and you'll be happyu
revolution8k (5:31:03 PM): uh...
pissedoffsol (5:31:04 PM): and be able to go 23213 miles on a tank
revolution8k (5:31:14 PM): see this is why I get pissed when I ask a question. I get these same responses.
pissedoffsol (5:31:38 PM): because you ask stupid questions.
pissedoffsol (5:31:42 PM): we're about performance
pissedoffsol (5:31:49 PM): not about "how many miles can i go on a tnak of gas"
revolution8k (5:33:11 PM): Yeah, and when I ask about SCing I would have gotten the same pissy answers had I not told you guys to spare me your opinions on what you think of it vs a turbo setup. That was about performance and I would have gotten the same shit from it.
pissedoffsol is away at 5:33:42 PM.
revolution8k (5:34:19 PM): but shit. it doesn't matter. it was a simple I don't know answer, seriously. Sorry for bothering you and wasting your precious time on a half way joking IM.


What the fuck is this about? Why can no one give straight answers? I didn't know the "General Tech and Maintenance" was about performance. But I think I owned his fat fucking ass pretty well with that underlined text.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I really hate him. Pastey white rich bitch with three cars and still lives with mommy and daddy.

 

[lemon]

question... is dx better than si?


cuz if its not, then i dont think they are about performance... :dunno :tard

 

[TheOriginalJames]

He thinks I want gas mileage. I get good gas mileage, but I want to extend the range in miles my car can travel first and foremost. That's all it's about.

Apparently asking those kinds of questions in General Tech and Maintenance which has nothing to do with performance aren't allowed.

and i understand what you mean, and i drive a v8

hmm... want me to look for info? :dunno

 

[redsMULLT1]

WOW.... get a DX and put some Altezzas in it and you'll be happy??? What a fawkin cockhole... Thats why I never post questions in camaroZ28.com either. The only answers i get are: get a manual, get a diagnostics tool (yeah... I can afford that shit :tard ) or... the almighty... put a twin turbo 383 with a 5 billion shot of naws in it... that will clear up your random miss. I'm not ragging that forum, alot of people know their shit.
Just sayin that these dicks are everywhere. I hope you can find out if it will fit or not bub. :rock

 

[TheOriginalJames]

I have the size... but I asked there to see if anyone did a GSR gas tank swap. If it doesn't fit, it doesn't fit. But part numbers aren't going to give me jack shit for answers. and I don't want to buy a GSR tank only to have it not fit.

 

[redsMULLT1]

I hear ya bub.

good point :cool

 

[redsMULLT1]

I don't know really anything about imports, but do you have a picture of a GSR tank and a Si tank? Maybe you could google some pics up and compare the two? :dunno I dunno, just throwing some suggestions out there.

 

[TheOriginalJames]

nah I don't have a pic of either one. All I know is the gsr gas tank is 1.3 gallons bigger.

 

[Haus]

what if you contacted honda directly. i hate owners of forums like that. they treat there members like shit. ive been on one forum like that. some wrestling forum.

 

[Haus]

i dont know what your talking about 2000si. he seems very nice. :lol

WTH9819: HiYa2u!!! um i have a question about my honda s2000. i really like the looks of the accords. is there any way i can put on a accord front end on my s2000?

pissedoffsol: are you fucking kidding? go find a tall building and off yourself

WTH9819: ok. but is it possible to put the accord front end on the s2000.

pissedoffsol: sure. its also possible to not pull your rip cord when you sky dive, but i wouldn't recommend that to anyone sane either

WTH9819: so how would i go ahead and make the swap and what all would i need to mak3e it happen?

pissedoffsol: 1,000,000 dollars.

pissedoffsol: IF YOU WANT AN ACCORD GO BUY A FUCKING ACCORD

WTH9819: but i only like the accord front ends but like the s2000 car. so i was just asking how to put the accord front end on the s2000

WTH9819: and on my s2000 is it all wheel drive. someone told me it ws

pissedoffsol: someone should probably tell you actually learn about cars. the s2000 is rear wheel drive.

pissedoffsol: go here: www.stupidhonda.com

pissedoffsol: that will answer all your questions about life, liberty, and the persuit of gay front end conversions

WTH9819: oh ok thanks. one more question. does Vtec stand for very tall engine coolant. i saw on a video with a cobra that it did. is this true.

pissedoffsol: yes, and if it gets too hot, you'll boil over and make too much boost and blow up

WTH9819: oh ok thanks for your time.


hope you dont mind. let me know if this makes it to hondaswap.com

im pretty sure a GSR gas tank would fit into your Civic. an Integra and Civic basically use ALOT of the same parts so i dont see why that gas tank from a GSR would fit into your Si.

and all this is coming from a guy who gives 2 shits about Honda performance...i prefer to show than race

 

[Bossman351]

Not to criticize Si, but it seems to me that the swap would be a whole lot of extra money and work for just 1.3 gallons and 30-35? extra miles per fill up. Doesnt justify the dude being a dick tho.

 

[redsMULLT1]

I kinda figured that it would only cost a gas tank and some inginuity, but i'm used to working with duct tape and zip ties. :dunno

im thinkin that si is thinking for the long run

 

[Bossman351]

Thats what Im thinkin. In the long run hes only gonna gain about 35 more miles till he has to fill up again. Even if the tank didnt cost anything, it seems like a lot of extra work for very little gains. If it were something like 5-10 gallons bigger, I could see why. But not for only 1.3 gallons. :dunno Just seems to me that the gains are kind of minimal for the amount of work involved. :dunno

 

[redsMULLT1]

Oh. That would be like... $2.84 in extra gas anyway (here).
Hell I thought it was a good idea. :cool

maybe that extra gas will allow him to go places more worry-less than what he has now... :dunno
