I'm not hating on Honda's, but don't you guys get tired of modding the same car as 95% of other tuners? And don't you get tired of owning the most played out car ever, the Honda civic? And don't you hate worrying about whether or not you car's going to get stolen every time you go to the mall of ga? :thinking:

I know this is going to piss people off, but I'm not trying to talk ****, I just had to throw this out there.......:2cents:

Maybe it's just me...:cheers:

95% of other tuners? Show me where you get your numbers from.

I'm thinking that the most played out car EVER is not the Civic, it wasn't really modded extensively until the 1988 year models. Mustang maybe?

Any modded vehicle can be stolen - however, it is definitely Hondas "day" as far as thefts go (sadly). Most of the thefts I see can be prevented, it's just people that want to look good 1st and care about security 2nd. And honestly yes it does suck to have one of the most complete EG hatches in the metro and it's been sitting in Griffin in storage for over 2 years. In my case that's bc i have moved on to modding my other projects, NOT b/c I think my hatch will get lifted - it WILL take a tow-rig to get my EG home if I take it out - no doubt about it.

ANY car that sticks out w/ wheels/electronics will catch the eye of a thief, and any car can get taken... not just H badge stuff.

But congrats on a semi-retarded thread.

Everyone loves his/her own brand, and in SOME cases they'd look down on other brands.

IMO, no car is played out b/c manufacturers make variations of the same car (if that car is 'hot') to keep things interesting.

and that percentage you came up with is rather crazy :screwy:
there are tons of 240s runnin the streets, gangs of VW's (which had their time for most stolen car of the year), and a bunch of Toyota's roaming around. think about how many folks jumped on the AE86 bandwagon after Initial D dropped! :eek:

the Honda "following" is so large because it's constantly being "refreshed" with new guys who are just getting their first cars. Some of them move on to other things, but a lot of that crowd stick with the H badge (if for nothing else, a DD) because they're so cheap and reliable, even after they've been modded.

We should all just quit while we're ahead and buy KIA's then. Civic's are no better then 240's and 180's, there's a plethora of them every where you go. That's just how things are when the majority of the scene concists of people who have tight budgets and little income. Not everyone can be a baller and get something rare

This is a truly ignorant statement, you ARE hating on hondas so dont say you arent. Any car can be played out mr "nissanTun3r" take a look at your beloved 240's and all the "mad tyte drifting" fad. Thats as played out as it gets.though civics and most other hondas have been modded over and over there is always something new and different. Get off your high horse you sound like a tool :gay: . your no better than anyone else, you drive a maxima.

The first post has a point, and stated some facts. But it doesn't make A honda less. Its just one opinion, Honda's are great cars, that's why it hit the market good. So what if yours "model isn't unique", you can make it different by the way you modify it though. it's just based on a aman's perception.

Why there are so many Honda's?
*VTEC!
*Saves gas
*Ease of modifying it & tuning it.
*Cheap cars
*One of the best selling cars around and the technology is increasing.
*Honda's last hella long.
*So many different motors & routes you can choose from when buying a certain Honda.

For all the Honda owners; get a bad ass alarm!

Only Honda's I'd get would be a s2k...or a mean looking EK

i have to agree with you there maxima's do look really nice. i wanted to get on after i got over the 240's but just couldnt afford one. although my uncle has one and it looks great. they would be even better if they had the gas miliage of a honda tho.:D

Before I bought my max I wanted a civic si to start modding. But after driving one, I was EXTREMELY disappointed. I could never own a 4 cylinder car unless it was turboed. And I never bought my maxima to go fast, I just think it looks good and it's a little quick. I'm not saying my car is fast, it is not. Honda's are great cars, they're cheap, reliable, and can be fast.

No stock Honda Civics are fast, purpose of having one is to mod one to make it fast. Look at future tuning potential, not by just driving it and saying it's slow.
Anyways..
hmm, have you ever been pulled by a N/A Honda owner with a vtec engine with close to or over 200whp? That'll change your mind about vtec owners once you've experienced one in person. For the ricers who own vtec motors who are 95% stock; Yea, I understand your view point but 200whp is a big step on a Honda car. :goodjob: You won't feel the power like a turbocharged car would give you but you are seriously hauling ass though. ;) Just my 2cents

That's very true, that would be fast. But I've never lost to a non-turboed honda. I even beat a boosted teg the other day, on the highway no less! But if you want to go the all motor route, get a v-8. A built all motor stang would be SOOO much more fun than an all motor rsx.

all motor rsx's are not that fast unless you go k-pro and do it all right from the start. I've got relatives that own N/A honda's that run low 13's and can perform better if they change their chassis to a EG or get bigger cams. What you runnin bud and how fast is it?

VTEC was designed to maximize power and efficiency of a small displacement motor. This is how they make a N/A 2.0l make 237 hp and so on and so fourth with the other motors.

You wave the Nissan flag so confidently but you prolly dont even know that Nissan has VTEC too.

To the rest of you Vtec haters.

Honda was the first to mass produce a variable valve system in cars in the mid 80's. The B16 that was used in Group A as a homoligation motor and that technology is now 23 years old.

Most of you only look at straight line and highway street racing :rolleyes: for a cars overall. Instead, look at how Honda builds a type R vehicle from the get go. Balance is above all else. In those days, Honda's package was the best in the world. For years it was the 4AG in the Corolla vs the B16 in the Civic. The key in a Vtec system is how aggressive the set up is. You can get much more aggressive cams and build a a setup that makes power all the way to 10,000 rpm. It is potential and most of the quys on the street cant get it so they talk sh!t.

CRX
Civic with a REAL suspension
Del Sol
Prelude
Intergra
ITR (maybe the best FWD sporty car ever)
S2000 (will not be replaced)
NSX (discontinued)

Like Toyota, they now sell giant sedans and SUVs galore. It seems to me that people TODAY buy them based on PAST accomplishments.

Vtec doesn't suck, the OP should read about it. What does suck are the people that think its a turbo or act like it adds 500hp or something.

I do believe the first Honda to have Vtec was the NSX right? Today just about every car brand has some sort of variable valve timing.

VVT Implementations

* Aftermarket Modifications - Conventional hydraulic tappet can be engineered to rapidly bleed-down for variable reduction of valve opening and duration.
* Alfa Romeo Twin Spark - TS stands for "Twinspark" engine, it is equipped with Variable Valve Timing technology.
* BMW
o Valvetronic - Provides continuously variable lift for the intake valves; used in conjunction with Double VANOS.
o VANOS - Varies intake timing by rotating the camshaft in relation to the gear.
o Double VANOS - Continuously varies the timing of the intake and exhaust valves.

* Ford Variable Cam Timing - Varies valve timing by rotating the camshaft.
* DaimlerChrysler - Varies valve timing through the use of concentric camshafts developed by Mechadyne enabling dual-independent inlet/exhaust valve adjustment on the 2008 Dodge Viper.

* GM
o VVT - Varies valve timing continuously throughout the RPM range for both intake and exhaust for improved performance in both overhead valve and overhead cam engine applications.(See also Northstar System).
o DCVCP (Double Continuous Variable Cam Phasing) - Varies intake and exhaust camshaft timing continuously with hydraulic vane type phaser (see also Ecotec LE5).
o Alloytec - Continuously variable camshaft phasing for inlet cams. Continuously variable camshaft phasing for inlet cams and exhaust cams (High Output Alloytec).

* Honda
o VTEC - Varies duration, timing and lift by switching between two different sets of cam lobes.
o i-VTEC - In high-output DOHC 4 cylinder engines the i-VTEC system adds continuous intake cam phasing (timing) to traditional VTEC. In economy oriented SOHC and DOHC 4 cylinder engines the i-VTEC system increases engine efficiency by delaying the closure of the intake valves under certain conditions and by using an electronically controlled throttle valve to reduce pumping loss. In SOHC V6 engines the i-VTEC system is used to provide Variable Cylinder Management which deactivates one bank of 3 cylinders during low demand operation.
o VTEC-E - Unlike most VTEC systems VTEC-E is not a cam switching system, instead it uses the VTEC mechanism to allow for a lean intake charge to be used by closing one intake valve under certain conditions.
* Hyundai MPI CVVT - Varies power, torque, exhaust system, and engine response.
* Kawasaki - Varies position of cam by changing oil pressure thereby advancing and retarding the valve timing, 2008 Concours 14.
* Lexus VVT-iE - Continuously varies the intake camshaft timing using an electric actuator.
* Mazda S-VT - Varies timing by rotating the camshaft.
* Mitsubishi MIVEC - Varies valve timing, duration and lift by switching between two different sets of cam lobes. The 4B1 engine series uses a different variant of MIVEC which varies timing (phase) of both intake and exhaust camshafts continuously.
* Nissan
o N-VCT - Varies the rotation of the cam(s) only, does not alter lift or duration of the valves.
o VVL - Varies timing, duration, and lift of the intake and exhaust valves by using two different sets of cam lobes.
o CVTC introduced with the HR15DE, HR16DE, MR18DE and MR20DE new engines in September 2004 on the Nissan Tiida and North American version named Nissan Versa (in 2007); and finally the Nissan Sentra (in 2007).
o VVEL introduced with the VQ37VHR Nissan VQ engine engine in 2007 on the Infiniti G37.
* Porsche
o VarioCam - Varies intake timing by adjusting tension of a cam chain.
o VarioCam Plus - Varies intake valve timing by rotating the cam in relation to the cam sprocket as well as duration, timing and lift of the intake and exhaust valves by switching between two different sets of cam lobes.
* Proton Campro CPS - Varies intake valve timing and lift by switching between 2 sets of cam lobes without using rocker arms as in most variable valve timing systems. Debuted in the 2008 Proton Gen-2 CPS[2][3] and the 2008 Proton Waja CPS.
* PSA Peugeot Citroën CVVT - Continuous variable valve timing.
* Renault Clio 182, Clio Cup and Clio V6 Mk2 VVT - variable valve timing.
* Rover VVC - Varies timing with an eccentric disc.
* Suzuki - VVT - Suzuki M engine
* Subaru
o AVCS - Varies timing (phase) with hydraulic pressure, used on turbocharged and six-cylinder Subaru engines.
o AVLS - Varies duration, timing and lift by switching between two different sets of cam lobes (similar to Honda VTEC). Used by non-turbocharged Subaru engines.
* Toyota
o VVT - Toyota 4A-GE 20-Valve engine introduced VVT in the 1992 Corolla GT-versions.
o VVT-i - Continuously varies the timing of the intake camshaft, or both the intake and exhaust camshafts (depending on application).
o VVTL-i - Continuously varies the timing of the intake valves. Varies duration, timing and lift of the intake and exhaust valves by switching between two different sets of cam lobes.
* Volkswagen & Audi - VVT introduced with later revisions of the 1.8t engine. Similar to VarioCam, the intake timing intentionally runs advanced and a retard point is calculated by the ECU. A hydraulic tensioner retards the intake timing.
* Volvo - CVVT
* Yamaha - VCT (Variable Cam Timing) Varies position of cam thereby advancing and retarding the valve timing.

Proton - VVT introduced in the Waja 1.8's F4P renault engine (toyota supplies the VVT to renault)

Im with you there on the NSX. But i aslo have to admit that moving to bigger cars was a move to compete with the American brands. Yes we represent a market too but it was not big enough. On the bright side, i have heard news of a possible new Honda city which could be the size of the mid 90's civic sedans. But i doubt it will head over to the us.

Honda was never really about small/sporty - Honda was more about efficiency. Look at the American manufacturers cars that are sold in Asia - small cars are the ticket simply b/c of the size of the streets. To reach the markets in America, Honda upsized the cars - they had to in order to be competetive - just as the domestic companies make smaller cars for the Asian market in order to be competetive. Even in America though, the H badge stuff is still efficient no matter the size.

I love how people hate on Honda when there are so many fast Hondas that would entirely RAPE their cars.

ok think about this, its not always about who is faster, but its more about what looks and feels better. its not like you can drive around raping cars 24/7 lol. i would rather drive something that looks nice like a lexus or bimmer than a played out honda with some rotas on it.

Maybe..but that's YOU.

If I had a BMW it would be entirely gutted, fully caged, race seat, nothing else. Loads of suspension, and minor engine work. How a BMW should be done.

A Lexus...eh....

had 4dr 99 accord v6. Awesome DD. I probably would still have it if it wasnt for tranny.

I have read good amt of articles regarding the vtec technology. Somewhere i read states that vtec was developed as a substitute for turbo on mass produced cars. Honda wanted efficiency and at the same time versatility. And it does what it was intended to do. Only reason vtec is overrated is because people make it into something that is not. Usually teenage kids as these cars are popular among kids.

That said, i prefer FI over vtec and favor torque over hp.

AKA, your statement means squat. Because if I recall correctly from previous threads, you definitely fit into that last one. :)

PS, shame on the person who bumped this thread.

Hmmm I like Mustangs...lol

I like fast 240's I hate on basically stock ones with stickers and the guys act like hardcore emo drifters.

Never said anything about Neons, my ex owned one. And I am not too sure if there are that many fast ones lol. But if there is a FAST one reps for being different. I like SRT4's if we are reffering to those.

R35's will beat me, but I hate anyway :goodjob:

There is a difference, people actually believe ALL Hondas are slow. I have met some of these people. They truly think EVERY Honda is a slow POS.
