One of your cars is getting flamed at Honda-Tech

http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=129228

Good luck man.
Those guys are killers.

good luck? for what :grin:

as far as i'm concerned, as long as i'm happy with my car, thta's all that matters.

opinions are like arseholes. everyone's got their own..just don't try to shove urs in my face :grin: (i'm not saying you are Daks..but in a general sense)

True as long as u're happy with ur car, thats all that matters man.

See ya saturday man.

geez, honda lovers are flaming toyotas, and vice versa, who the heck started this anyway!? we all like imports, so why can't we all just get along...do we REALLY like machine on wheels, or just the logo on it?

we should expand this forum to "Import Nation"!! no more criticism on other ppl's rides :smile: better to make a friend than an enemy :grin:

if EVERYONE thought like that Aaron, we wouldn't have the mess from sept 11 :smile:

true that!

yuo have to inform those honda ***s that the car has a supercharged engine transplant, that the intercooler is mounted on the top of the engine (as the engine came that way from the factory) just like the more popular imprezzas from factory, and that the car is friggin work in progress...

unlike a honda not everyone can get your favourite ricer mag and dial a 1-800 number and have parts delivered to your door.

and with that, not everything is bolt-on..

oh well prejudice, ignorant honda ***s.. what else is new.

they have to understand not everyone can say, "hi b16 please" and just flash a wad of cash and its done..


oh wait..

everyone does have it.

that is what makes them original.

and don't try to flame me, i have been working on honduhs before toyotas and my good friends both drive t04e b18c5 hatches..

Fsck them. They can think whatever they want. Bottom line: We're still faster than you.

I take comfort in these words though:
&quot;Go talk what you like, tell people that Nish is lame, cause saying that I suck means you're still spreading my name.
People like to disrespect my crew, but the fact is that you know my name and I don't know you&quot; -Nish Rawk + DJ Serious &quot;The Enlightening&quot;

good quote.... although would be nice if everyone gets along.. i think though toyotas are more work... which makes it fun on my part.. main reason? if i smoke a honda in the streets they dont know what hit them they smoke me? its embarassing to them.. hehehe i guess they're just intimidated that toyotas make pretty good projects compared to everyone else's same ol' civic, accord integra...

and they were trashing camrys that lost to a civic with both bald tires hahahahhaa.. u will never see me brag about killing civics hehehee minimum... i dont even race them its a waste of gas... stock for stock hondas suck.. ive beaten v6 accords in my state now and that's just minor nothing major.. i guess hondas really do suck!!! im sorry i think they should stick to making lawnmowers... and calling us rice hahahaa... who are the major ricers?? ppl with engine swaps immediately show it off if they have a honda ... its rare to see an engine swap toyota why? cos it was good to start with...
oh well dont care much for losers anyways.. cos its all the cars.. that's why we're all here for not dumbA$$e$ that drive hondas and tell us wat to do with our cars!! i hope ur gas saving pos mini toy car u call a civic survives an accident hahahaha

I don't get why no one seems to realize that Eric's car is supercharged??

I guess no one there knows how to read

leave them be, obviously dthey don't know all the facts about toyotas, so let it go.
Obviously they don't realize that its 4agze
and probably don't even know what that is.
they are just ignorant to facts, and don't realize that hondas are the only ones that can go fast.
IT's not just a honda thing, its a person thing
they just don't realize the potential of other cars..
its like domestic guys bashing imports
whatever

I find that honda guys are the most narrow minded people out there, heck I get flamed for stating something that is actually true, they gang up and start flaming on ya. Losers

naw they arne't the worse, its kinda equal deending on manufactuer. it'll always be like that.. like ford/chev.
and them domestic/import
whatever
don't get too pissed off abotu it.
=D

I found honda-tech is a very informative website. There are more professional racers on that board than any other board I have seen. You can pick up good info there. They don't just talk about honda. Honda owners tend to think civics are quite invinsible but I agree with them in a way. For the same amount of money investing on a compact car, honda will usually out-perform the competitors.

i'll believe they are pros when i see em work in the office at the track..

until then it's all talk..

Don't know how you get that idea. Maybe because you do that all the time.

actually, no. cuz i've seen and heard too many ppl claiming themselves to be pro racers and what not.

only &quot;pro&quot; or semi-serious club racers i've seen are on specialstage.com and a very few on i-club

i think he meant pro-amature or some scca class runoff..

if they were really PRO as in &quot;i race as my day job&quot; i don't think they would be doing it in hondas. unless they work for some trashy import mag, or COMTECH (spelling?)

I agree its a very infromative website

.. we the human race don't have Tolerance and acceptance of others. We dog on other people cause it makes us feel good and just live out life complaining about others, and fail to see the fault within our own selves. People should look in the mirror and gain some humility...

wisely chosen words!!

Bah....

Unarguable and Internationally known fact:

Who makes the most reliable cars on this planet?

Case closed.

There's two sorts of buyers on this planet: the guy who's buying a CAR or the guy's who's buying a DEAL.

Why are Toyotas so expensive some might say? Reason is Toyota CAN'T and WON'T make a cheap car. Go ask BMW why their cars are so expensive. You pay for what you get.

Go pay 18 000$ for your Focus SVT, go pay 21 000$ for you 160 hp Civic SI. I'll stick to a 32 000$ 180 hp Matrix XRS or Celica GT-S anyday. I'm not one to buy cheap just to save a few bucks. When I shop for a car, I shop for a CAR.

bro the xrs is 24,000 just an fyi

Ahhh... Come on man! What's your point? This is not the topic at hand??

All I wanted to say is that these cars are in the 30G bracket.

Quote from Toyota...
XRS full equipped: 30 580$ (taxes + tranp.)
GTS full equiped: 35 678$ (taxes + transp.)

ANYWAYS, That's not the point of the topic, so why the correction? Trying to pull an &quot;AE86 after the cartoon&quot; on me? This is senseless...

Don't take this the wrong way, no hard feelings :wink:

eh Pat,
Email me your phone number to talk about Maniwaki please derek@eol.ca

sorry, little off topic
i saw someone's signature says Two Tone GTS corolla.

what's two tone meaning?

why do you people want toyota to be recognized so badly? if that happens then everyone will buy a toyota....do you guys really want that? dunnos about you but i really don't want to pick up some ricer magazine one day and see a riced out corolla on the cover. It's bad enough with the Initial D thing going on....i don't really want the ricers trying to come into the scene too

The most reliable would probably be Toyota. But where do you stand? So, you will only buy toyota? You said

&quot;Go ask BMW why their cars are so expensive. You pay for what you get.&quot;

Are you being sarcastic? So, I guess you won't even consider cars like Porche or Ferrari, they aren't as reliable as toyota, because they use cheap parts like you said.

hey....whoo quoted Nish Rawks? thats my nipponese nigga!!!! hahahaha! i think he's the tightest asian rapper i've heard yet.

on hondas and toyotas....ahhh let everyone say what they want...no one knows shiet until they felt the wrath of the funky carrot juice drifter!

Citanest, you got it all wrong buddy! What I meant was that if you buy a 60 000$ BMW, you get damn good quality. Buy a Porsche or Ferrari, you get what you paid for...QUALITY. Where the fu** did you see me say that Porsche or Ferrari use cheap parts to make their cars??!! Get off the weed bud. Can't you read right?

It's like buying a 150$ Pyramid Amp that's good for 600w and buying a Precision Power Amp for 1200$ that's good for 600w.

Who's the better build? Which one has the better quality. It's quite evident. Price goes with quality.

PRICE DOESN'T ALWAYS GO WITH QUALITY, want proof?


http://www.myaudittsucks.com/

Proof? Well, that's arguable.

Ok, we have some disgrunted customers here who seem to have problems with their Audi TT's. How many? 20..25? Are we to assume that all Audi's are crap because of a bad batch? Hey, it happens. Are Audi's reknown for not being reliable? I don't think so.

My friends mom's 2000 Corolla had it's auto tranny changed twice because of a malfunction. Isolated case, bad batch. Am I to assume that all Corollas are the same? That this taints Toyota's name and reliability? Nope.

Besides some isolated cases, I must say that the rule of Quality/Price applies itself at 95%. Not in all domains (like clothing) but in most mechanical and electronic applications.

Porsche, Mercedes, Audi and BMW. I am yet to see their names tainted by poor quality construction. They have made their names because of their quality and reliabilty, just like Toyota.

This is something you can't dispute.

Let's all have a beer now! Cheers! :wink:

true indeed...u pay for what u get....

oh and NO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES in the Toyota Nation forum!! :grin:

the only honda ill buy is a lawnmower, atv, or weed wacker, or a motorcycle, naa scratch the motorcycle. do hondas make trunks by the way? i think not, different kinds cars different kinds of racing.

From my experience,

The only reason I love having my AE92 SR5 is that it's always unique, because not all the after market parts I have on it are available everywhere, meanwhile just like Andrew said anyone with a Civic or an Integra could walk into any performance shop and wave the cash and drive out with a decked out car, whether cosmetic wise or performace wise. I don't find anything for my car, and anyone who has an AE92 SR5 would know what I'm talking about. But that's not exactly a bad thing.. So, every car has its advantages and disadvantages! Why are we dissing eachother?! If a Honda owner says that Toyotas are sh**, simply tell them to put their money where their mouth is and that way they'll shut up.. No need to Generalize and say all Honda drivers are a**holes!
