Re: Best tuner magazine

Re: Best tuner magazine
I like turbo and high performance, super street is stupid (kinda) but funny, sport compact is pretty good. Modified is good because hey cover all the drifting events. Also if you want to see which one is the best you can subscribe to one of those deals where you get 1 free issue and then just cancel your subscribtion. I did this for like 4 magazines and in the end kept the super street. lol

Re: Best tuner magazine
Import Tuner is for fags...
Modified is crap! They can't even spell 'TOUGE' right! Bunch of bandwagoneers! IMPORT RACER...? Crap! SCC is good... just as long as they are not talking about Saturns or NEONS! Turbo is one of my faves! But they could make it thicker! SUPER STREET is my absolute fave... sorry! I know alot of people hate them but I have read their mag since I can remember being into 'imports'! They have the coolest cars, JDM and drift stuff too! .... but what does this have to do with anything in this forum?

Super Street has sick cars, but they don't give enough info. Like thye don't give any numbers and half the time they don't even know what the guy is running under the hood if it's a japanese ride.

sport compact car is my favorite mag handsdown. they have very very good tech articles on all types of cars to keep my busy and entertained. plus their tech articles actually have substance. they're cars are not flashy, and only focuses on performance ( just the way i like it ), they also happen to be very very good drivers, and every tuner mag race event, they usually come out on top. this is due to their superior driving skills, and superior knowledge on every aspect such as braking, cornering, and power. i mean dave coleman won the scca rally event twice!!! and their project silvia as number 6 out of like 20 tuning mags ( such as car craft, mustang mag, and euro tuner), and the low ranking is because the silvia blew out a intercooler coupling during a track run which costed them a few seconds. but they posted faster 1/4 times the most of the v8 mags project cars, and out griped everyone of them. they also won the G games.
anyways Super street is trash as most of hte editors knows dick about cars. its almost a comedy to read their tech articles because i'm learning nothing from them. i know more about cars then they do. and they don't even know how to work on their own cars. plus their articles are very random. they would talk about noodles, diss each other out, then back to the car, then dissing each other out again. sorry not worth my money. the next most techy mag would be Dsport. however its not thick enough. so as you tell, my taste for mag is more of which ever mag is harder to understand ( tech article wise )

SCC is the most technically inclined magazine. and they don't care what the current trend is. if a car is fast, and classifies as a sport compact, they'll do a story on it (volvo's, neon's, whatever). even if it's ugly as hell on the outside, but fast as fuck, they don't care and they'll do a story on it, and they definitley have the most technical know-how of any mag.
Super Street. the only reason i read it is because they feature the best cars from Japan, and have nice pictures. the writing is GARBAGE, alot of the time it's wrong, and the writers usually seem as if they're trying to piss you off with their inane, stupid, annoying jokes and quips in the articles. i'm soon to be cutting all the good pictures out of my Super Street's to make a collage, then happily burning what's left. Turbo. annoys me. Import Tuner. annoys me. Import Racer! annoys me. Modified. see above. HCI isn't too bad. Grassroots is pretty cool. and of course there's Option, Young Version, Battle Magazine and Option2....but i can only look at the pictures in those ones (i can't read japanese).
