You guys remember the "My 2L coke bottle has more displacement than a civic engine" one?

Can't use that one anymore, I got 2.4L! And the civic no longer maxes out at 201 hp. It's now 306hp!

Huh maybe 300hp is the new 200hp LOL

300hp is defn the new 200hp

Looks over to 2024 Camry lolol

I remember when 7 second to 60 was very good, under 5 second was supercar.... dipping below 4 was for "hypercars"... well hypercar wasn't a thing... but you all know what I mean

And then I remember the turning point... that infamous EVO 8 VS Murcielago on top gear, I must have shown the same clip to everyone I knew. To the general public, EVO was a car that I wouldn't shut up about in an anime call Initial D, but now it was like I got legit proof that car is fast lololol (it was when I took Top Gear as gospal and not entertainment hehehehe)

Hot hatches were getting more than a little hot, my MS3 was rated 0-60 at 5 seconds flat by magazines in 2007.

Are you referring to Timpo?

CivicBlues 01-05-2024 08:23 AM

Ah this thread brings back so may things I never cared to remember, it's like you thought these memories were locked away for good.

This reminds me of an audio clip or maybe even a video many, many years ago with someone in a growly voice saying “Tiiimmpooooo.. TIIIMMMPPOOOOO!!” I played it for my daughter when she was just a wee one and it made her laugh incredibly hard.

She’s driving now :okay:

There hasn't been a whole lot of forum moderation required, its the same group that flows through (which I appreciate) and a majority if not all over the last year or so have been fairly civil (apart from the CiC debacle).

I hope everyone is genuinely doing well, Happy New Year!

Enjoy this while we can! Lets hope the hamster doesn't stop turning for a while.



edit: My favorite thread ever, even til this day, due to the concept and the reception, had been "Fucked up things what make you laugh". Not only did the title make people think, there were debates regarding correcting the name (lots of support for keeping it the same), it was the Reddit for me before Reddit! I always felt so in the loop with funny pics and memes and videos because of that thread. It was a riot.

That time when I messaged in RS Chat in the early AM and nabs came out to a random alley in East Van to help jump my car. :tears:

Hondaracer 01-05-2024 09:07 AM

So I worked with a guy who saw my browsing RS.. and he said of your on RS? What’s your username? Said Hondaracer you? And he sheepishly said Timpo… lol forgot about this..

Yeah, I had to put my iphone off silent in order to hear the audio clip.

"Timpoooooo! Awright, ma" :lawl:

punkwax 01-05-2024 09:30 AM

That worked! Lol can’t wait to show her when her lazy ass gets outta bed.

Lol reminds me when I started a new job about 10+ years ago, the Asian girl receptionist caught me on RS and she asked me who I was on there. Umm... Civicblues.

OMG you're Civicblues? You're like pretty well known.

Hah I guess... who are you?

Oh you won't know me I just mostly lurk.

:badpokerface:

Edit: After that interaction actually got me to post this after a multi-year hiatus: https://www.revscene.net/forums/667834-hey-bitches.html

She's one of the replies. Every single post there would get me cancelled today. 2012 was a different world.

oh em gee what does he look like irl? hahahaha

Hondaracer 01-05-2024 10:19 AM

It’s kinda hard to remember I only met him the one time and in passing.. I’d say pretty typical Asian looking guy, probably wasn’t as greasy as you’d expect lol

I’d assume it had to actually be him because who else would claim to be timpo

twitchyzero 01-05-2024 10:22 AM

maybe jason00s2000/multicaltural too

bcrdukes 01-05-2024 10:25 AM

I thought Timpo was in Victoria? I vaguely remember him driving an FD RX7 to my highschool at some point.

Badhobz 01-05-2024 10:26 AM

This place is so tame now. You fucking faggots are old and boring

Dim sum and mahjong anyone ?! Herrow ? Herrow ?

bcrdukes 01-05-2024 10:31 AM

He spent some time on the mainland if I recall but eventually went back to the Island. And yes, he had an FD but he trade it in or sold it to a used car lot somewhere on Boundary Road or something like that.

Good old Timpo LOL

I met Jason97cobra/s2000 once... it was an interesting experience lol

This was back in the days when he was making money clickbaiting off porn sites or something like that? The real show was his Supra friend (GotBoost?) though holy shit I don't think that dude was ever not on coke lol... last I heard of him he was running databases for a gambling place in Costa Rica that got raided by the FBI

Anyone remember when the guy with the turbo Type-R raced the auto Supra guy? They jawed about it forever and then it finally went down and the ITR won hahaha

murd0c 01-05-2024 11:00 AM

Holy fuck I forgot all about Jason, he was always so cocky as fuck thinking he's the 14 dolla baller. His shit always made me laugh and made great content to see all the wtf responses.
