Amuse is top notch too, I gotta agree with ya there.
I wish they'd make a turbine kit for my car because they have some good quality parts.
Amuse finely tuned a S2000 that can kick the crap outta almost anything.

Don't get all bent outta shape if you think you're being called a ricer even though you can rip apart a B18 and put it back together. If so, I'd consider you a great mechanic. But a mechanic does not have to be an import enthusiast.
I'm good friends with Dwight at Auto Solution. He's 35 or so and I consider him to be a master import mechanic, but does he know that Takata only makes kelly green harnesses, heck no. Could he run circles around me when talking engine blueprinting, heck ya. I'm not a master mechanic, just like anyone that can tune their fuel management system isn't necesarily a ricer because they don't about the JGTC circuit.

(not saying a 14.8 is fast, but I haven't seen a neon run under 15's yet)

and this thread has nothing to do with 2fast2furious....so on that note....saw the preview again at the movies tonight, ill be there 2 see it as well as alot of you for whatever reason that is. \
i read an article that jon singleton said he isnt tryin to make an accurate street racing movie but rather start trends that he hopes will catch on in the import scene. which explains these crazy ass paint jobs. he called this his creation, and the movie is what it is because thats how he envisioned it. so i guess its not that they "just dont get it" about imports, but they dont care and are doing it thier way.
