Default Sleeper ?'s

I'm gettin a Type R and I don't want everyone to know that I have one. So my question is, will an LS Valve Cover fit on a type r head?? Sure they could look for the engine code on the block but people in Houston are Morons.... Myself included sometimes

No, it will not fit. A B16a or B18C valve cover will fit though.

if it was a sleeper then why would you even let them see the motor?
if it was a sleeper than you wouldnt be going around showing off your motor.

obviously people are going to hear with their ears that the engine is definetely a DOHC. it is a pretty obvious sound. so if they ask what it is, just say a ZC with an autozone intake tube. thats only IF they ask though. maybe they'll be dumb enough to believe it...

Honestly, a good sleeper is a car that looks like total crap. I'm talking mismatched fenders/doors, a crap interior, and stock height. Then you (the driver) act like you don't know crap about cars and want to race "for fun." When you spank him/her, act suprised. Just my 2 cents on sleepers.

Buy a crappy knockoff cover from ebay (like the retard one that says MUGEN and is colored birhgt yellow or blue!) and slap Tenzo and APC stickers on your side window.

I completely dissagree here...

A sleeper can be super clean and still be unsuspecting.

just my 2 cents on sleepers...

If you have the motor to back it up, then i'd say make your car look as ricey as possible. Neons, huge wing, chrome tint, whatever. You'll get tons of people to rev on you that way. You wont have to instigate a single race.

never ever ever open your hood to strangers for nothing. nobody knows what you have and nobody has to know, thats a sleeper!, no matter what people say.

You know, thieves aren't as dumb as you think. Many have confessed to saying they troll car forums for idiots spreading word of their treasures, such as buying a Type R. Now your screwed because you gave away that much info. We know your from Spring, Tx; your 19 years old; and your name is Jack Markgraf. And we've got details on your 89 hatch so we can easily weed you out from the rest of the ppl in Spring, Tx. I'd say you just stop typing, buy an alarm, and get a damn good insurance agent. - Darrell
