Yea, all of the RWD Nissan's of that era (the r32-34, s13-15, and the z32) all have that same issue.

Nothing says Hon DUH like +8 degrees yo shout JDM and give me a double fist pump

Snapped a couple pictures of this little south phoenix gem on the way home today. Does it help explain my hatred of Honda's? Yes extreme camber but only on the rear non driving wheels

There are some raggedy 240sx's around my area. Doesn't make me hate Nissan. Your hate is directed at the car which really can't be blamed, instead of the owners. So no. It does not explain your hatred of Honda. Theoretically, you should also hate Nissan. Do you hate these?









Because if you do, you should probably sell your current cars. I mean, according to your logic, you should hate a brand because of how people choose to mod its cars.

[JTR32gtst]

Those are ugly...yeah, dislike the owner, not the cars...

[gwoods]

The 240 I see are all nicely done I see honda'slike this all the time. If this crowd switched from honda to jag I would probably trade my jag. find a xf that is retardo-modded there arent any.

I hate stupid. Stupid is color blind and bi-partisan. This allows me to be an equal opportunity hater.

With that said, I'm right there with ya on hating most Honda's. For the most part, the ones I see are either stock or the extreme opposite. Rarely do I see one that makes me think, "nice car". From primer body kits to dragging spoilers and fart cans, I dislike the majority. The Honda crowd has earned their image.

That half camber accord I saw yesterday was about 6 different shades of blue spraypaint it sadly doesn't really show in the photos but man what a stupid looking car. I was a bit disappointed it didn't have the giant white POWERED BY HONDA banner across the top of the windshield. It was also missing the basket handle wing and the stick on hood scoop and fender portals. But clearly the owner was going to add those AFTER he saved up to buy enough spray paint to finish it.

So this fits your camber thread, unless its a racecar its difficult to not look like a tool rolling on the street with camber. It also fits my "talk me out of a M Roadster or Boxster" thread when people suggested a S2000. Sorry I don't want to own even the same brand car as these people regardless of how the S2000 drives. I see many many Honda's everyday and the ones I notice look like this and worse.

[WDRacing]

The S2000 is decent looking, but the power band is awful. Unless you like peaky no torque motors. Yes it makes a lot of power per cube, which is what the leg humpers usually point out, but it doesn't make any of that power until over 5500 rpm. IMHO, that is NOT a fun car to drive.

99 Roadster with intake.


2002 S2000


We went a little off topic but meh...I think the OP understands that tons of camber is retarded. If you race some camber is a good thing. But camber is tuned on a individual basis.

DAMN. As though the S-type wasn't already ugly enough!

[dre1507]

GWoods. You hate Honda's because a small percentage of owners "retardo-mod" them out, but still love Nissans despite the face that a small percentage of Nissan owners also get into "retardo-modding". You don't mind the "retardo-modded" Jags I just showed you, because you claim they're not the model you own. Remember, you don't just hate Accords and S2000s. You hate Hondas in general because of what some Honda owners do to their car. If you can't hate Jags and Nissans because of what some Nissan and Jag owners do to their cars, then that's no bueno.

Roun' dese pahts dats called hypocrisy.

[gwoods]

mmm maybe, but finding me a picture of a x type or another old jag with donk rims on it isn't really the same as seeing a couple poorly modified Honda's every day in person. I'm surprised anyone can keep a Jag running long enough to modify it. If hating the Honda brand is hypocrisy I don't want to be right.

[AZhitman]

If I saw this car on the freeway, I can't promise I wouldn't see how well he can perform an "evasive maneuver".

Call it a public service.

[gwoods]

I LOL everytime I see the subject of this thread. My wifes BF is named Camber, is she worth it?

[AZhitman]

Your wife has a boyfriend with a stupid name?

I was gonna say the same thing I'm thinking BF means best friend in this case...that or GW is a swinger!

[gwoods]

best friend, and no one in her family is into car racing. She didn't know camber had anything to do with automotive anything until she met mee. I expected her father would have been a racecar driver in the 60's or something but nope.

[SanoSuKe]

It's not always that bad. I have negative camber for fender clearance, yes just for looks. Aggressive offset requires negative camber, and as for tires..well, you gotta pay 2 play.
