Browsing around some forum today, the one where s14 was talking about the street racing, I came across another thread that was entitle "Shift from Honda to Nissan" and when I clicked it, I sat there, dumbfounded for what the post contained, here are the exact words from the topic poster:

Posted By: Fuel Injected Obviously I cant speak for every enthusiast, but im seeing a shift in manufacturer preference for imports...S13's are getting cheaper and cheaper, the SR20 is the new B16 type engine, you know what im getting at.

JDM is as popular its ever been, and we are seeing revivals of the Corolla GT-S, S13's, FD's and even older celicas (popular in Ottawa)

I pray Initial D isnt released to mass market TV

I know he meant the bandwagon jump, cause ever ricer that seen F&F and had even opened the lastest issues of superstreet and other have been influenced to want to get a SR. But what iritates me the most is he compared the SR to a B16 honda motor, a honda motor, a OVERRATED P.O.S honda motor. In my humble opinion I believe someone that compares a good engine to that low on the podem deserves to shot. The SR is more then overrated, it is locked potential waiting to be released, but only in the right hands. I still here dumbfounded as trying to find a calm way to respond back to his ignorance.

If you can back up your statement about the b16a being a POS motor with actual fact, i'll actually maybe hold your opinion valid.A lot of 240sx owners are going to have to deal with the fact that every idiot kid that wants an import, but decides against a honda is either going to get a Nissan or a DSM.Dont believe me? Look at a lot of post on this forum. Questions about wings, headlights, body kits......wait, that sounds like rice, and as everyone knows there is a direct connection between rice, and stupid hoonda owners. I'll take this one step further, Drifting will take over street racing, as the pastime of retarded import owners. For every well seasoned expierenced driver who is having a good time controlling his oversteer, there are 10 kids in a wet parking lot pulling thier e-brakes, and doing powerslides with an arm out the window, while they dream about being one of the Akina speed stars or the Night Kids (i personally thought the RED SUN posse had it going on....but anyway....) And somehow this isnt gay because it's not in a honda?Face it, 240sx's are next, and all your drifting spots will be filled with idiots.

Oh gawd, I saw a video the other day of some tray-sliding morons in civics doing this. All I can do is :rolleyes :rolleyes :rolleyes :eek

The saddest thing is they actually think that they are drifting. I'm sorry, but driving 10mph in a hosed down parking lot with McD's trays under your rear wheels doesn't constitute as a drift. All I was thinking was 'Put your hand back on your steering wheel beotch! You like like an arse clown.':pface

So you think I deserve to be shot?

Give your head a shake buddy, I compared the SR20 to the B16 in that they were the hot topic among swaps nowadays.

If you browsed my forum at all youd know whenever someone wants a new car everyone suggest an S13 with the SR20

You took that totaly out of context....besides who gives a s*** if someone talks about motor you like?

You didnt design or build it so why take it personaly?

Idiot.

wtf is up with this noob? me thinks truslide was pointing to the fact that the SR swap may become as popular as the B engine swaps.

as for the B engines being a pos motor, compared to the SR20DET, it is.

Even the new civic engine is not as good as the B engines were.

That was the whole point of my original thread until bozo here decides to rant

That has absolutely nothing to do with what I wrote

1. SR20s will be the new fad.

2. An SR20DET should never be compared to a B16, even for the sake of popularity reasons. Because as MaineImport has consistantly said (I think it was Maine)...the production numbers for the 240 will simply not constitute it being the next Civic.

3.89sx is correct, I'd never pick an S13 with a swap for "cheap power", there is at least one cheaper Nissan to be had that can make more power(probably a bunch more).

4 POGS were the motherf**kingsh*t, I don't care what anyone says.

5. The kids in the videos on Wangan Midnight actually go out to drift a lot, don't compare them to what Matt was saying. I didn't say they were great or anything, but they are a very knowledgable bunch of kids. (Look at the second video, the S14 drifts the whole lot.) Actually Mattback just posted a thread with a video on it, I can't look at it, since my computer sucks, but its the same kids as on Wangan Midnight.

Ok Tongue runner. Ya I think you deserve to be shot, now more then one time.

You compared the SR to B16 cause your little ricer *** has been reading superstreet alittle to much. Mutha****a, you are just a trend jumper, all your little ricey magazines have been displaying the SR lately, so you think you will join along and jump on the bandwagon and hopefully make some friends.

Ya, I like the SR, but its not what I plan to swap in, mainly b/c I don't want a lot of ricers like your *** standing over drooling at my engine talking abunch of nonsense you read in SuperStreet.

Not to mention you probley first heard about the SR while browsing around in your little bible known as F&F.

The b16 will never compare to the SR. Anyone who thinks so is just another little bastard following the trends. Go back to your civics, I don't feel like hearing your nonsense comparasions.

side note: comparing the b16 to the SR sounds like something superstreet would do.

240sx to a civic???? no comparison. PEOPLE, they stopped making the 240sx. there's not enough 240s around (compared to civics) to start a "240 Fad". Just because 240sx's are starting to make it into the magazines (and we all know that 240sx's are WAY better cars than civics) doesn't mean every ricer is gonna have one. a civic is the universal car of the millenium and will always be. man, this is a waste of my time....i'm starting to ramble about B.S.
