I looked at the September issue of Super Street and saw this girl that graduated in my HS class, on the front cover. Guess we're all seeing things

Cool you got your car in a mag dude.

However...


About 4 years ago I was flipping through an issue of super street and was reading about some project honda they were working on. About a paragraph into the article I read the phrase "Since none of the editors here at SS are capable of an engine swap, we took it to..."

I dropped the mag and kicked it toward the trash. How do you edit a car mag and not have put in the work to do this stuff? f***.

Congrats on your pic in print!

But honestly guys, just look at the "Ride of the Month" ... VERSA! I guess I should be happy it's a Nissan, but in their own words,
"This Versa could use a WING and SOME POWER. Like LOTS OF POWER, engine-swapped turbocharged power. Then it wouldn't be such a SISSY-MOBILE, but it does look pretty good ... for a Versa."
Un-****ing believable. Jeezus, the freakin' Honda Accord sedan looks mean all slammed, the freakin' Civic HAS AN ENGINE SWAP ... and oh yeah ... look at that beauty of a 240 with a tastefully done facial and ENGINE SWAP .......... Holy crap, the Versa gets picked by a team of brainless farts with nothing better to do then rag on their own reader's rides. ***K you Super Street ... I gave up on them waaaaaay back in the day when they had the Project Neon that got STOLEN right before doing any kind of serious heart surgery. Back in '98 my first company specialized in performance Neons and in '00/01 we had the first all motor Neon with a record breaking 2.4 motor swap in NIRA/IDRC. While Super Street turned our article down for the tutorial 2.4 engine swap, Mopar magazine stepped in ... a bit more serious that SS could ever be. Yeah, sure SS self admits to not knowing what they're doing (a lot) - but I know what I'm doing - walking right past the latest issue and every one that follows. SS, ha! Should stand for Stupid Sh*ts. My 2 cents.
