street racer? Start with something cheap so when its impounded you dont take to much of a lose. Plus you can used that saved money for a lawyer or to help pay the family of the person you might kill. Save it for the track.

That was probably the dumbest thing you could have said if you are looking for help/advice on this board. It doesn't look like you have even been "shot down" yet.
People get harsh on these boards sometimes. Scope the forums. Read the rules. Use the search button. Figure out which direction you want to go.

ok, heres what u do:
get a civic
spray paint it white, and then paint the hood black (for that CF look y00)
go to Autozone, and buy EVERYTHING from the APC isle (except for the edelbrock barrel carbs....theyre on the APC isle at my local autozone for some reason)
get a HUGE window banner that says "p0weR3d bY jDm"
now that uve got ur fat new whip, take it out for a spin, but be SURE that u always rev it to 5K and then dump the clutch
have fun being an *** clown

Re: (bbarbulo)
17 + tuner + street racer = Newbie
Look... definately USE THE SEARCH BUTTON!
Next, "show car" and "fast as hell" usually don't go hand in hand. It is really expensive to make your car "fast and furious", sorry "fast as hell". It will also be really expensive to make your car a show car. Most people take years to accomplish one of these things. If you are serious about your car, you will learn to do your research. Buy books, mags, and use H-T search to learn as much as possible.
But at some point you will most likely have a decision to make, either fast or bling. The choice is yours young skywalker.....

What am I going to be jealous of? You don't even have a car. I do. By street racing you are doing the stupid **** other people are. As far as pumping gas into your "nice *** car", that would be only if Honda fired me and the only other job in the world was pumping gas. Nice trying at being funny or witty or whatever you were trying to do.
