    hahahehe, you bastards crack my ass up. RagingPandanuts, I was an SR guy, well, I still have it now, and have had it for 2 and a half years now. I am just as happy with it now as I was the first day I drove it. You said you wanted to do a lot of mountain runs, auto-X, and all of that other bullshit, but an SR would have been a better choice due to its RELIABLITY, LIGHT WEIGHT (I am pretty sure it is the lightest motor you can put in a 240, beides an SR20DE, but you know what I am saying), and excellent response to modifications. There is a reason why there is a HUGE bandwagon for SR's now, but that is the sad, sad reason why I am selling all of my SR shit (including my immaculate 240 hatch w/type-x's, 56K original miles, SR20DET, damn it really is a nice car) and I know I will miss it. But, I want to start something new again. What will it be? who the fuck knows. I guess the point to this long-ass post is: CA's SUCK! hehehehehe

    ca is lighter and sits lower in the engine bay my friend. It can rev up to 8000rpm without breaking anything, I dare to see the SR do that on stock format. Those characteristics are perfect for my mountain runs, autox, and "bullshits". Since when CA is a high maintainence engine. If you putting down 300whp+ on your SR, then you shouldn't be telling me about good reliability unless you deal with the valvetrain. How CA isn't excellent response to modifications when it can keep up with the SR with the same mods even though it's about 15hp less in stock form. Do you even know CA at all? You owned or experienced one before? What an intellectual way to determine an engine, based on the bandwagon. I guess you used to have a riced out civic also huh?
    You know yuda right? He's my close friend and the only person he trusts going to the mountain with...I'm still looking for a reason why he's your friend. Are you the guy that rear-ended someone?If so...i'm searching even harder for a reason.

    Chill man. I am only fucking with you. I really don't give a damn what you put in your car, what you do with your car, or anything. And no, I have NEVER owned a riced out civic. I think I know who you are now. Don't take my shit seriously, I am just throwing words on here to fuck around with people. What was your name again? I think you came to my house one time with either Yuda, Kamau, Paul, hell I can't remember. When is the next time anybody is going up to the mountains? I have not been on a mountain run in a WHILE. The only reason anybody else is fucking with you is cuz of personal preference. That is the only reason the KA-T vs. SR battles are ALWAYS going on. Either way, if something makes the power that you want, then it is fine with me. I wanna see it when you get done, and if you need any help, just let me know.

    BTW, are you 100% positive that the CA weighs less? I have seriously never researched that, so I don't know. I have never had a reason to fuck with a CA when I have had my SR for a couple years now. Anyways, I think I am done for now. Oh well, see ya later bitches!

    fast or slow is all depends on the owner. Can he/she tune it or not and how much money he's/she's willing to spend. The only reason you don't see tons of CA with high ass HP is because most of the owners are pretty much satisfied with around 250whp. What the hell am I going to do with a 300whp+ on a car for autoX and mountain run with only 2500lbs.. There is something called too much power...if you're into drag racing then there isn't but you get my drift. But if you want some high hp ca's, there are several out there if you're willing to search because that engine is made for serious tuning.

    Go to CA section on http://www.nico.com and see what I mean. I'm glad there isn't a bandwagon for CA, because it would be gay to have a bunch of import tuner's readers instead of people that actually researched .
