It's like saying you don't like a top-fuel dragster because it can't drift.

And to Alan: Vis-Racing has a Carbon Fiber SiR-Style hood that fits the usdm headlights that should give you the hood clearance needed for the b-series valve cover

+1 You got my vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not to be mean or rude but I guess you can say I really dont like the Honda crowd. I mean the only car from honda that I would ever think if owning is a 95 Accord. But there just not my cup of tea.Death to Hondas!!!

this is HondaRue's brother so if this particular post offends anyone then don't regard it as my brother's post please. and aaron, if you don't like this as well, then please delete it.

you DjSpecter are just showing how ignorant you are with that post you made. you say "Honda crowd" like it is one group of people who all think and act the same. do you not realize that with how big the Honda scene is that there will definately be more than 1 "type" of crowd? Honda probably has the biggest following due to the fact that they are affordable, easy to find parts for, and the ease of doing swaps. however just because people choose honda's because of these facts doesn't mean that if they were to choose a corolla or any other car for that matter, that they would act differently. if they had gotten a corolla or a 240 or whatever else, chances are they would still be as big of a D-bag.

again, Honda's are just easier to come by and are more affordable when it comes to modifying than other cars. and saying you would get a 95 accord over any other Honda shows your lack of knowledge when it comes to modifying cars. i guess to each his own and it's all a matter of opinion, but since this kinda started on how cars "perform" an accord hardly seems like a prime candidate when comparing to a corolla or crx.

and to moreofmick, to kind of put into perspective what i interpreted aaron was trying to say is that overall as a whole his CRX out performed his corolla. to take the easy way out and say "try and drift your CRX" is kind of a lame way to give points to the corolla. as a whole, his crx would out perform his corolla, in acceleration, top speed, braking, handling, ect. sure, the corolla would "drift better" than the crx, but if he were to take his crx to mineral wells and his corolla to mineral wells and ran them around the same track the best way each car would go around the track, whether it be drifting or grip or what ever, the crx would have a better time.

anyways, that's how i interpreted it.

I don't dislike any particular car company... but I do dislike car owners. If I were to make judgements on a manufacturer based on the owners of their vehicles I would hate Toyotas and Corollas as well.

alright alright guys. let's ease up.

besides, looks like the thread got de-railed.

aaron, dustin - if you would, just to minimize any confusion and potential volatile mis-quoting especially in regards to healthy debate material, keep responses under your own accounts. make one if you don't have one.

as for hondas, the "honda crowd", top fuel racers, NASCAR, circle track, legend racing, etc...they all have their different attractions that more strongly satisfy their enthusiasts more than others.

let's go ahead and lock this thread. it pretty much already served its purpose since C4AG is already back online.
