I don't really understand why everyone that has one engine feels the need to diss other engines. It started out like "sr20 is better than b18c5 jo momma" and now its so retarded that nissan guys spend their time cutting each other up in big coupe v. hatch wars and sr v. ka v. ca wars...I don't really care what engine you run, I just care how quick it is. "run whatcha brung." also I don't care how quick it is if you are an *******.

Luckily I haven't had to stop them from putting it on the rollers backwards at emissions tests because I've been going to the ghetto places people go to *cough*pass*cough* .. instead I get asked if I'm going to put a SR in it

Damn, all i get asked is if it a turbo or not.. usually the answer is " no, the big silver thing hanging out of the front of my front bar is my Flux Capacitor".

when I had my CA18DE Silvia people would think the FC oil cooler between the headlights was an intercooler.

[/quote]i post there maybe more than here and if you check my posts everyone is usually VERY interested and anwer all my questions very quickly. i also get ALLOT of PM's from people for photos, dynos, questions, advice etc... they are allot more knowledable about tuning and performance parts etc there are also allot fo them with really good racing experience... i find the CA NICO forum to be what it really has been being targeted as recently - a maintenance forum... if i am looking for advice on a turbo or tuning, fuel system & electronics etc i turn to freshalloy.com forums, if i need to find out where to get a part number for a woodruff key or crank sproket, i'll come here.

I know there's alot of knowledgeable people on there... moreso than on here in some areas, don't get me wrong. Alot of my FL buddies are regulars on there, but with the few CA questions I asked over there, I got nothing but hostility... "why'd you put that CA turd in there?" or "for the money you've spend you could have gotten an SR"... granted that was afew years ago, and people are showing an interest in CA18's these days. Whatever. You and your 400hp crazy CA are probably welcome anywhere Aaron! Its not really fair to compare how they react to your CA with almost anyone else
