Re: spring showdown 3
Man, whats with all the rotary-hate. Every time a rx7 is mentioned, you chime in with all this negativity... haha! Most rotary issues are caused by inefficient tuning... just like any other car. Mine has treated me well so far. Now i may have a different opinion a few years from now... but motor issues then will only urge me even more towards an additional rotor conversion build 
I'd really like to see that. Regardless of their problems I've always loved the way the cars look and sound.

Re: spring showdown 3
SO why bring a stock ass looking b18c turbo leaking oil all over the front to a car SHOW?? lmao...thats gheettoo..it takse 30mins to fix those leaks...quitbeing lazy car owner of that car ! they make dual and tripple seals now for that shit come on, get in the game...or shit, atleast clean the sobe before the show...that was pure rice imo...slap a turbo and cage in and thinks its a race car, cant keep up with small shit like that...come onnnn
i called him to bring the car as a stand-in(it was originally in the show in '01) as we had some cars not show up due to the rain.the car had been under a cover for a couple months he said.he drove it over within a half-hour of me calling him,Quick Detailed it,and that was it.sorry.
and who the fuck said it was a race car?!A clean Civic with a turbo swap,roll bar and some of the rarest wheels around?sounds pretty good to me.it's just a street car,and it does okay(close to 300HP and 2000 lbs?).needs a repaint-that's about it.he'd been talking a while back about me building a new long block for it and getting a nice EMS.after that,it's pretty much a matter of how big a turbo he wants to run and what fuel.500WHP?600WHP?more?......just for the record,what would you like to see?does it need more JDM whore bullshit?does it need a shit-ton of power?...and BTW-what the fuck do you drive anyway?it better be pretty god-damn badass!
my email is teamnextgen@yahoo.com-looks like you're banned here,so please shoot me a message via my email so we can talk.......

Wouldn't doubt it. There were a bunch of kids there trying to act hard.
Chris... I guess I'm just a negative person, and that's kind of the truth these days. That's what I chalk it up to anyway. There were nice cars there, but since I'm such a negative person, all I can think about is that they aren't perfect.. or they aren't as nice as what I've seen at other shows. Heh. If I could stop being like that, believe me, I would. At least I recognize it though.
Any pictures of the old school suicide door coupe that I mentioned before? That was my favorite overall, by far.

Re: spring showdown 3
are you fucking kidding me?first off,it's not my car.i built the car for the guy about two years ago.i can't control how he maintains it,but i'd be more than happy to fix the issues if he wants me to.guess it's not a priority right now for him.just hope i can swap the head gasket in a half hour........"get in the game"?what the fuck are you talking about? I've been "in the game" longer than it took you to graduate elementary school. I've got a pretty good grip of what's going on,and i've probably done more with these cars than you've read about on Honda-Tech.
i called him to bring the car as a stand-in(it was originally in the show in '01) as we had some cars not show up due to the rain.the car had been under a cover for a couple months he said.he drove it over within a half-hour of me calling him,Quick Detailed it,and that was it.sorry.
and who the fuck said it was a race car?!A clean Civic with a turbo swap,roll bar and some of the rarest wheels around?sounds pretty good to me.it's just a street car,and it does okay(close to 300HP and 2000 lbs?).needs a repaint-that's about it.he'd been talking a while back about me building a new long block for it and getting a nice EMS.after that,it's pretty much a matter of how big a turbo he wants to run and what fuel.500WHP?600WHP?more?......just for the record,what would you like to see?does it need more JDM whore bullshit? <= YES
does it need a shit-ton of power?...and BTW-what the fuck do you drive anyway?it better be pretty god-damn badass!
