    I disagree. 7 years ago i hated the thoughts of the tuner scene. FWD, Neons, Stupid Kits, all that nonsense was all you saw. I had to actually go to the track and see CRXs without fenders, hoods, interiors, running #'s i couldn't in my 300zx. I also started to realize how well these cars can handle. It took those few that saw function over flash to bring me in. At the same time i've always seen that different cars can have respect for different reasons....that's why to add to the fast stuff, ive always liked lowriders, hot rods, street rods, classics, minitrucks, and off roaders.

    But again... a crx with nothing but a nasty kit will never have taste in my book.

    100% correct..... this JDM stuff has brainwashed kids to conform with what ever is going on. Coming to Varsity and seeing a guy build a Triumph Spitfire with an SVO 2.3L Turbo was such a breath of fresh air. All you see is civics and 240s all looking like they are falling apart and yet the owners talk sh!t about anyone who drives something different..... "shut the fuk up you tree wrapping drifter".

    But i digress, again im tired of people thinking there is a list you have to follow when building a car. tired of it. Bodykits are an issue of personal taste...work for some, not for others. Me...well i like em on some cars....not on others. To many variables.

    Let me give you an idea what i think using RX7 (i guess it's relevant)


    I like (if you don't...... whatever)
