yeah i was thinking 18 for a long time, but after doing more research i found out that the 20g bangs a lot more power with a 100 rpm spool time difference.

it could be both, but the CRX is older therefore gets the upperhand for the nickname i guess.

my opinion on civics is they can be done horrible or they can be done sick. and last time i checked alot of them are race cars. whats the beef with a JDM look, its 10x's better than altezzas body kits and big chrome wheels.

and BTW leave my plate frame alone, i took it from a wholesale accord at work. lol

Yea..what idiots. How stupid to buy reliable cars and try to tune them. Oh wait, thats exactly what most of the people on this site are doing. Lots of civic owners can be asses, but so can CL owners, or owners of any car. And sure, lots of civics are ricey, but I have seen my fair share of ricey CLs. Dont hate on civic owners. They are just trying to have fun with their car like anybody else. And the whole JDM thing, what is wrong with that? You sound like an old guy with a grudge. Did some EG with a B18 swap kill your J30?

Nope, I don't race my 3.0 much, and it can hang for the most part, I don't believe or pretend that my 3.0 is a race car though, I used to own and mod a 2000 Trans Am so I'm no stranger to real horse power. I just hate rice You're right, I'm not saying I hate all civics, I just hate most of them, because you have to admit since the wonderful Ricer movies of the 90's there has been a constant flux of fart cans, and 3 foot wings at least in my area, everyone rices cars now, I saw a freakin ford excursion with a fart can yesterday And I def have seen ricey CL's, but on a scale, the civics are like 10 to 1 over CL's as far as rice factor, cuz they're cheap and have a large market, better them than CL's I guess
