Do you love your NA? - Page 3

RaginBull · 08-12-2006, 05:09 PM

I bought my NA in April of this year, and am loving every bit of it. However, I've never driven a turbo 2 yet so I can't really compare. IGNORANCE IS BLISS....lets just say im not ready to move from weed to crack yet!

More like cigerettes to excstacy.

Can JDM 3sge be a bolt-on replacement for 5sfe? Would new EUCs and wiring be needed?

You guys make the NA out to be so bad that now it causes Cancer...

CyFi · 08-31-2006, 07:06 PM

i dont see why everyone hates on it so much. The lotus exige isnt even that fast but its still probably more fun to drive than a lot of other faster cars

It just might!

TomsMR2 · 09-01-2006, 10:13 PM

i loved my na..

until i drove a turbo...

.. then i realized how crappy the turbo actually was..

then i loved my na again..

until i raced against many turbos.

.. and kept winning and winning and winning.

then i laughed at the turbos!

na FTW.

lol, are you kidding ? In stock form, the Naturally Aspirated Exige runs 0-60 in 4.7 seconds. That's pretty quick, I'd say.

I just traded my 93T with tons and tons of problems for a MINT 91 na. Although the turbo had the power, I like my 91na more. It's simple and like this... 87 octane, 31.5 mpg, practically maintenance free, and insurance is a bit cheaper.

But one day... when the 5sfe dies (that's if it ever dies hahaha), GEN3 SWAP! So for now, I love my NA... but will love a turbo (without issues) a lot more.

kenny.c · 10-06-2006, 12:59 AM

I love my n/a, for me its about driving a mid engined car, cheap running costs,
still turns heads and reliable although not the fastest but can't have everything....

shimric · 10-08-2006, 09:30 PM

I would like my mr2 a whole lot more if I could afford some better rims. I hate the ones that came with the car. There so gay.

DrftJnkies · 11-27-2006, 05:42 PM

I love my n/a, but I think it hates me.

It doesn't hate you. It's just giving you an opportunity to show how much you love it by emptying your pockets for you.

kdjohnson51582 · 11-28-2006, 08:46 PM

ya i was just given an 91 na a couple of months ago it had a couple of problems when i got it but it got me to work and back until the motor finally quit at 290,000 miles but i enjoyed it so much that im keeping it and at this moment waiting for my 3sgte motor and lsd1 tranny thats being shipped other than that its the funniest car ive driven

Breed-X · 12-18-2006, 07:13 AM

i absolutely LOVE my NA !!! (1990 rev1 hardtop 3S-GE)

ONE HAPPY OWNER
