Those mags aren't worth trying to get your car in, anyway.

Well, maybe Turbo Magazine. At least everything in there is boosting.

Why not Sports Compat Car. I read all the import car magazines and i think that Sports Compact Car is one of the best if not best import car magazine. There magazine is all about performance, and thats what i like to read. Turbo is a good magazine to me but i dont think it worth almost $6 for half the pages as another magazine. And also the cars in Turbo are kinda show alot of times, but that just my opinion.

thats the second time that car has been on ebay. Either the second owner got tired of it or the first owner was never able to sell it. i think that car made 410 hp at the wheels or something like that.

My favorite part...-"EXCEPT it now has stock pistons and rods"

I bet he just lied about it in the article to make him look better...why would he change them back to stock on this 'mint' car?

goldollar,

Dont get me started on the car mags. They all basicly suck. The only thing I use them for is to get web address for parts and stuff like that.

Of course I haven't bought one in awhile. Maybe they have improved. Probally not.

PS I like your sig.

Oh come on man. You cant say that Sports Compact aint a good magazine. I do agree with you tough. Almost all those magazines are awaste of money unless you like seeing the same thing done to the same kind of Honda over and over. Im just saying that Sports Compact Car is pretty good magazine. They are performance oriented, They do reviews on parts, new cars and have great tech articals, and i defenitly been keepin track of there s13 project car. Plus what else are you gonna read on the crapper.:D

True dat! I only buy them when there is a specific car or article that intrest me. Ususally some new nitrous pruduct or something like that. But I dont have a lot of use for them anymore. They are spreading the desease of Honidice.

Only problem, is the Honda's in the mag are ususally pretty nice (built). But all the little teenagers (i have nothing against teenagers) want to have that car so they get a fart can muffler,and a body kit.

I hate to get on a rant agian. But I feel the need to clarify. I dont hate Honda's. I dislike these cars (nissan's included) with unpainted or ugly body kits, loud mufflers, metal wings, and stickers. This is spawned by these magazines and movies like 2Fast2Furious.

I am just more in to power and handeling, rather than show and sound.
