all domestics and imports have the exact same problem. kids get them and put cheep parts (imports talking about mufflers) or stickers (domestics talking about SVT, Z28 and so forth) then talking about how badass there car is.
the domestic guys get away with it more because domestics have been around much longer (duh, tuning wise anyway) and have a better name for themselfs. imports dont. dont get me wrong... im not dissing domestics... just saying imports can be fast 2!! leave the 1/4 for the domestic, leave the real racing for imports. if anyone wanders which i like more, import/domestic... i dont really care... LS1 is god of domestics, and RX7 is god of imports. end of story. (personnally i want a 300ZX twin turbo... its just so sexy)dont flame me because you dont agree. ![]() ----------------------------------------------------- Currently driving- 1998 Honda Civic EX. <--slow currently wanting- 1995 Nissan 300ZX Turbo <--sexy currently liking- one kickass vet (900ish WHP)<-- fast as shit. |

i look at it like this: for 3k, you can make a 70's GM A-body handle like a japanese import, or make a japanese import run a mid-12 1/4, it just depends on what you want to do, and how you want to do it.

Re: i have an interesting thought...
lol, real racing?? what real racing are you talking about, i think of the 24 hours of lemans, where i dont really seem to think of ANY jap crap on those courses. german, italian, american, yes, jap no. take a built C5-R and see what japan can throw at it. im thinkin not much. now that is not to spark an anti import thread, i agree that the twin turbo 300Z is a sexy beast, and have to diss the supra for personal reasons, long story and all. but dont go telling me that domestics are ONLY quarter mile cars and cant hold their own on a road course, because ill have to poop on your head.

Re: i have an interesting thought...
Yea skyline is pretty close to god of imports but as far as availability in the U.S. the supra still comes out ahead in my book, hard to find but you CAN find them. Also any car that can run deep 12s stock with a good driver and track conditions is ok in my book (and also run 160+). 300 TT is a sexy car as is the RX7 but in my book i think the supra is still my favorite japanese import, looks good and hauls ass. I dont like alot of imports (esp fwd ones) but to each his own and i can respect anyones decision to fix up/ work on whatever they choose, it's their money not mine. However this is a Camaro board and the topics should be left for camaros.

Re: i have an interesting thought...
dude, topdog, what is it with you and calling everyone elses cars girls cars? have something against girls? fast car is a fast car. rice car is a rice car. and just cuz they drive imports dosnt mean they are gay, and if they were thats a crude fucking thing to say about it. you need to clean up your posts, your offending alot of people i have alot of gay friends, (i am very strait but im sure youll say im gay, have fun with that.) they are great people, its not cool to use it as a put down. i also have alot of girl friends, many who are damn good drivers, and drive nice cars, so it just makes you dumb to use that as a put down. think up some new material, stop smashing beer cans on your forhead, and try talking to people, rather than piss em off. geezus christ man.

Re: i have an interesting thought...
@ gay camaro driver ^^^ j/k bud...It's all a personal opinion thing. If you want to drive an import, then by all means, buy and import. If you want to win races, then get some V8 muscle...

Re: i have an interesting thought...
no no-- you guys got it all wrong i acctually like the camaros! as for the C5R ...well, uh... can anyone say duh? about the only thing you can throw at it is a skyline or the RX7 (and it would be one damn close race). the only american can co. i can not stand is ford... sorry, but i think that is the biggest hunk of crap ever; even the old ones. chevy makes the LS1 and that makes them A-ok in my bood
. anyway, my point was in a GENERAL sense i think imports are better at raceing and a V8 is better at a 1/4. mostly just because of the weight difference. as a thought while i'm thinking of it, the most successful supras have MR2 motors in them . in fact, those are the only ones that can beat the AWD Skyline. sorry i posted this in the camaro form, i thought i was in general chevy... (honestly). i'm saying imports, but i do not mean your average civic or teg; i really mean RXs, Supras, 300s, 280s, 240s, skylines, WRX/STI, BMW, and pull an S2000 and NSX out of honda (ignore that 90k price tag on the NSX lol)anyway, peace. no harm intended. (unless you drive a mustang, then i dont like your car and you should go buy a chevy, i like those) lawson ps. some ppl i know w/ stangs-- 1. computer brakes constantly, never runs right 2. owns a Cobra (2001 or so), blew the motor, 2 times. 3. drives the 6 cyl. stang, auto tranny broke at 30k miles! wtf 4. drives a mustang with a fart can that a civic would have (enough said) 5. drives a mustang with a body kit, rims, fake flowmasters, and the god damn stickers from F&F (on the supra at the end). <-- i will post pics if you do not beleave me. 6. i just dont like ford. |
