Virtually every single one of those or similar I've ever seen is clapped out

2020-10-30 03:17:53 UTC  

And 99% of them are riced out and sticker bombed with hentai stickers

2020-10-30 03:19:19 UTC  

I see some that are mostly stock, but it’s really too bad a lot of these are all riced out...

2020-10-30 03:19:53 UTC  

Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate a nice JDM build but holy crap, they all are ricers out here except for my buddy's 240

2020-10-30 03:20:10 UTC  

His is pretty clapped out but he's got an RB25 in it

2020-10-30 03:22:14 UTC  

I just wish people actually knew what they were getting into with these cars... They are getting pretty rare due to these ricers doing bad things to the engines and getting in wrecks because they can’t drift...

2020-10-30 03:26:09 UTC  

It’s just hard to see...

damn brother, that sounds awesome!

2020-10-30 04:45:21 UTC  

The idle speed sounds fantastic

2020-10-30 04:45:34 UTC  

Solid lifter cam 350 with a holley double pumper

2020-10-30 04:45:41 UTC  

It sounds even better in person

2020-10-30 04:46:41 UTC  

no clue what that means, my only exp with cars is basic maintenance and I kinda helped my dad install a throttle body once :/

2020-10-30 04:46:50 UTC  

but it does sounds beautiful

2020-10-30 04:46:57 UTC  

I can explain, if you want

2020-10-30 04:47:06 UTC  

sure, I want to learn

2020-10-30 04:47:15 UTC  

I'll start with "holley double pumper"

2020-10-30 04:47:35 UTC  

This is the name for a series of carburetors made by Holley. The carburetor blends the air/ fuel mixture

2020-10-30 04:47:59 UTC  

It's called a "double pumper" because it has two accelerator pumps, which spray a shot of fuel into the engine when you step on the gas

2020-10-30 04:48:34 UTC  

mk, I think ik what your talking about

2020-10-30 04:49:23 UTC  

This number 4150 is a common variant

Don't be fooled, they're quite simple in construction

2020-10-30 04:50:03 UTC  

is that brass flap the throttle body, or is it something else?

2020-10-30 04:50:21 UTC  

the square one on top I mean

2020-10-30 04:50:27 UTC  

It's something called a "choke butterfly"

2020-10-30 04:50:37 UTC  

mk

2020-10-30 04:50:41 UTC  

This cuts off some airflow to help the engine warm up when its cold

2020-10-30 04:50:52 UTC  

I took mine out though

2020-10-30 04:50:58 UTC  

gotcha

2020-10-30 04:51:24 UTC  

y would you remove it though?

2020-10-30 04:51:55 UTC  

They can be unreliable

2020-10-30 04:52:04 UTC  

ok

2020-10-30 04:52:20 UTC  

I find it's easier and more fun to hold the engine at part throttle for a few seconds after it starts up and then let it idle

2020-10-30 04:52:43 UTC  

Not much, we're only talking like 1500 rpm

2020-10-30 04:52:52 UTC  

gotcha

2020-10-30 04:53:23 UTC  

I am guessing that is not something a lot of modern cars have?

2020-10-30 04:53:36 UTC  

They haven't used carburetors on cars in over 30 years

2020-10-30 04:53:59 UTC  

The people today who still use them are mainly relegated to classics

2020-10-30 04:54:18 UTC  

huh, thats something new
