manual transmission lag - Ford Mustang Forums
Oh lawd. I refused to spend any time on mustang forums when I had my foxbody. Full of idiots. There was more knowledge about foxbodies on the 6th gen civic forum I was on anyways.

Now that the mustang is sporting VTEC it's all better.

Nismo package, sorry but that is not more power for the 350z (the 370z got a slight power bump). The Nismo for the 350z was a pure track package, still touted as one of the best out of the box track cars (behind s2k and miatas).

Tell him his lag is because his VTEC had not kicked in yet and he has to rev higher.

I can only spend so much time on those types of forums.
I love American muscle cars, it is what I grew up loving, but the online community for them is absolutely horrible. The 350z forum is bad just because people are douches (some would say it is an age thing), but the American car forums are just ignorant.

All forums get that way. The fanboi douchebags ruin it for everyone. There are plenty of them here (see TreyUT and others) but luckily 95% of the members are high quality and AK runs a pretty tight ship to keep us all in check.

I was telling the OG's earlier that I find it funny that I can post a technical question on the Mustang boards and go a couple days without a response, but I post here and I get help within minutes.

Yeah, pretty much this.

I avoid all car forums like the plague (and generally, if I -do- become part of the "community" I stick to the technical forums).

I'm sure there are exceptions out there (like this one!) but most forums are just nutswingin' all over the place with one or two people who actually know what they are talking about when it comes to any car except X. Of course, a lot of this has to do with no one wanting to admit the new car they just bought is worse off in any way to some car that they view as "inferior."

I'm starting to lurk away from general here, though. There are a billion X vs. 370z threads and they are all a huge joke with nothing of merit said whatsoever.

Doucheberry you are yes. If I wanted to hear more of the furd I would get on the furd forum but I don't want to continue seeing you posting shyte about the stang on a nissan 370 forum. It's all cool to hear it a couple of times but continually posting numbers and stats is uncool. Shyte, market the stang on the stang forum not here. Who really cares after while.

You point me to the ashhole that forced you to open this ford thread (in the "other vehicles" sub-forum) and I'll give him a serious curb-stompin' style beat down! WHERE IS HE!

Then get the **** out of this thread, idiot. Are you too ******* stupid to realize you are in the "Other Vehicles" section. We can talk about whatever car we want here.

I like this forum because half the major members don't even own 370's anymore, but still have a pretty balanced viewpoint. Helps keep the haters and fanbois in check.
