why do people lie in their profile? Options

[lagos]

ever click on somones profile on here, and realize that they are just making stuff up? why do people do that?

[Cutrara]

I have a 2JZ-GTE swap with rear wheel drive, 6 speed getrag and paddle shifters.


lol it's been in my profile for like 2 weeks, but of course it's a blatant lie.

[shin]

example? but ermm.. i guess it's just to look cool i guess

[lagos]

just one i noticed
http://www.6gc.net/index.php?action=members&itu=2242

claims to have a fmic with 2.5in piping....but just posed a thread asking whats needed for a fmic, cause he has no clue what to buy.

there are tons of other ones youll see... people claiming to have a 100shot of nutrous or something else thats off the wall.

[jgreening]

I had some mods listed before they were done - sometimes people list what they plan to do. As a matter of fact, there is one in there right now - redded tails. I have the material but have not tried the mod yet.

Other times, people just tell outright lies.

I've heard someone pretended to own my car? Back before I registered on 6gc.

[creis]

mine is 100% true. in that I dont list any of my mods because I dont want to advertise what my car is running to the world. Wile i like seeing what other people have, I advise not listing out all your stuff beceause it only makes your car a theft target.

I dont know man, that wax job is really good. pictures dont lie.


side note: weit i though everything on teh "intranet" is true, just like tv

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

It doesn't pay to lie. Sucks that people do it. I pm'd a few people trying to get info on the parts they said they have, like headers. I didn't get a reply from very many. I don't trust people who don't have engine pics. I don't have engine pics though, put I do talk about what I have done a lot. Eh, I'm probably full of crap. I'll have to get some pics.

[x_itchy_b_x]

BS no way does any car have this "cruise control"
thats waaaaay to futuristic for me to even comprehend.

[lagos]

no one makes a computer chip upgrade for the celica and whatever resistor you bought off ebay does nothing to add power, let alone as much as you claim .


aftermarket criuise control? does anyone even make that? what would be the benefit over the stock unit. do you just mean that yours broke and you had to buy another one? cause thats not a modification.

The aftermarket cruise is very possible. They make universal units that will work with various cars. He might have some sort of electronic device that advertises those numbers - but doesn't deliver.

[lagos]

its still not a "Performance Modification"... and dont all celica come with cruise stock?

pic coming...1 sec...

I'll second that. And I've got a manual with cruise control. The only way to add 15-20hp with chip, would be if you added something a stand alone. Maybe you just don't know what your saying. You could be ignorant about this.

[afroman]

mine didnt come with cruise control. it was added on later by the previous owner.

yeah lying is stupid...but i dont see why u care to the point that u are calling people out...if you know some one is laying, then jus be like f it, not my problem...now it's a different story art is someone said that you lied in your profile, but i jus dont thin it's worth the time and energy to get all bent outa shape for

[snapshotgt]

sorry, the up-close picture i took would not go onto my computer...but here is an old one...it is under the blinker arm....

...btw, if you still don't believe me, that's your problem, b/c i have it (i have EVERYTHING in my profile), and i could care less what you think....but here is a picture...

haha i was tooooooottttally joking on this one.

[gt_driFFter]

Snap, I believe he was mainly talking about this so-called "performance chip" that you have. Because I garauntee it's doing nothing for you in terms of horsepower.

And about the cruise control, we aren't arguing that you have it, but rather how is that a PERFORMANCE upgrade?

[Consynx]

my profile's prob off since i've sold rear strut bar, front splitters and the spoiler is gone. . .

[lagos]

snapshotgt, nice seats!

im just saying, its not a performance mod. the chip you claim to have....let me guess, its from ebay? thats not a computer chip like you see for some other imports. its just s resistor, it dosnt add any power. so claiming you have 15-20hp from it is a lie. and im not even going to touch the eturbo, cause thats a whole thread in its self.

so yeah, i guess you do have all those things, but you are stretching the truth VERY far when you describe them in your profile.

i mean, a performance, aftermarket cruise control... come on?

Ok, I've just checked my profile.
I dont think I've lie in there.
But if there is Art let me know.
I'll edit it

[bloodrain]

I lie because I want to be cool, and if you guys dont think im cool then I cannot sleep at night.

[snapshotgt]

where else should i put that i have a aftermarket cruse control?...i don't know anywhere else...and i want it in there b/c it is not on every manual celi here...and it cost about $400 to have...so i'm going to have it there no matter.

...and also...these smaller performance mods there are just to tide me over until i go for a full engine swap...

...c'mon, is is really a big deal that i might spend some money trying stuff out just to see if i get a little more fun out of my awesome celica???peace....i'm not saying some of my performance mod will beat out any turboed/swaped celicas here...i think some of you guys here are over-estimating what i think of these...i'm just here to try stuff out, and have fun with my celica, ain't nothin' wrong with that!

~snap

[macavely]

ok i must admit there are a few lies in my profile... the frist pic isn't even my car .. well it was my car .. thats a pic of the ST i love that pic for some reason ... and the pic showing just the wheel .. that wheel doesn't exist anymore.. its the one i split in half ... and the luk clutch i have came is a little more grip then i posted .. i put the coilovers on but took them off a few weeks later.. i didn't like the ride i got with them.. an the shift boot in the pic.. i have changed it 3 times since then ... and my front bumper is from a 98 celi i don't have the 95 on there anymore... and my engine bay looks a bit diffrenet at the moment...


damn that felt good to get off my chest ..

your right, and im sorry. im not trying to put you down in any way. saying that you have a "15-25 hp Computer Chip". is part of what im talking about when i say people lie about mods in their profile.

My profile is true .... for the most part... I dunno havent looked at it for awhile... *checks profile*

nice put down

...When i bought it...it said it was a 15-25 hp chip...so what i'm saying is not a lie...now, it might not give 15-25 hp...but what the heck, does it really matter?...we're all here to have fun modding our celicas...(too much fun sometimes ).

....i mean, i get so much sh*t about some of my performance mods all the time, so i'm use to it... ...but i am VERY proud of my car...i got it in horrible condition, and have brought it up to look new, as you can see, i'm more of a ext./int. guy...and i love my car...the only thing left for perfection is the power i lust for ...btw, if anyone here would like to pay for a swap for me...i'd be grateful ...but until i get the funds/my engine dies...i have to keep my "dream" of power alive in what some of you guys would call "stupid" mods...sorry that it might annoy you...but we're all in this modding insanity together

btw, thanks lagos for the compliment on the seats

I forgot to add my aftermarket cupholder, it goes on the windowsil, it's pretty special.

I've heard someone pretended to own my car? Back before I registered on 6gc.

His name on celica.net was "igotta5sfeturbo"

his posts were totally wack and not only was "his car" yours, but after admitting that he had lied, he created a new alias. It was quite pathetic, it boiled down to him eventually not posting because he could not prove anything he ever had, whether it be his 5sfe turbo, or even the car itself.

god, I'm so old school.

[celicast3sgte]

my entire profile is a lie! AHHHH! I cant believe i just admitted to that!

i dont really have a 3s, i lied
my standalone ems... nope lie
even my gauge pod i got pics of, TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE!

lol jk cmon guys no calling them out unless they say they have your car or something, i mean give it up on the eturbo. it was showed not to work, so let the person know discreatly and move on. AKA cut it out with some from this school yard bullying.

so with that, play nice

havnet looked at your site until now, talk about a nice corolla you had there!



and i like this shot, never seen the underbody of a gt-4 before. you have an awesome car, just throw on some new wheels already keep them 16's though, i like that look.

lol, thanks That was gonna be my big project... but yeah, ended up having a change of heart and sold it for an E36 BMW 328i coupe.

Then the BMW had some issues (going thru oil like nothing else) so I sold it, and got my ST205.


Spent a lot on the Corolla... I wa quite proud of it, only one of its kinda around. Loved the colour too, it'd glow orange under low light conditions thanks to the mica... *sigh*

ya that color is what caught me eye, i love deep reds. oh well, i gotta guess your more than happy with your st205 now so do you modify cell phones for a living or what? those are some neat looking phones in there.

[tangcla]

not for a living, just as a hobby. Had to change to phone repairs now, even then it's getting quiet because friggin phones are so cheap nowadays, they're almost disposable!

[Cutrara]

I have a 2JZ-GTE swap with rear wheel drive, 6 speed getrag and paddle shifters.


lol it's been in my profile for like 2 weeks, but of course it's a blatant lie.

I just noticed a topic of people bitching about this. I put it in my profile thinking, "This is funny, because it's an impossible swap. There's no way in hell people could be retarded enough to think I'm serious."

Proved myself wrong on that one.

How would you even put paddle shifters on a 6 speed manual? God, I hate people sometimes.

[celica47]

hahah so i take it that youre talking about me since i started that topic, dude i dont know you i dont know how much money you have or anything, how many people on here will tell you that if you have money anything is possible.

Yes, with money anything is possible. Let's use some logic here: Is it more likely that I have a 2JZ-GTE swap with RWD, that I have no documentation, proof, or pictures, that no one has ever seen or heard about, or that I threw that in my profile as a joke?

Well, you probably spent all your money on doing the conversion and you can't afford a camera... and since you spent so much time working on all this custom work, you snobbed all your friends and they aren't willing to lend you theirs... all done yourself so you don't have any engineering papers or paperwork....

oh and at all the meets...i borrowed that car its not really mine...the jetta wasn't even mine

i really drive a honda civic i just wanted to be cool like lagos and impress people i've never met...
