THe future of import tuning??
ive been thinkin about this lately. THe new cars of today will be the old cars of tommorow, the 92 240sxs, the old civic EKs, the engine swaps into the 15 year old japanese cars many people tune today....
will this even be possible in 15 years?? will we be swapping 03 accord v6 and oddysey engines into 2003 civics? will import tuning be as big in the future as it is today??

I think import tuning has declined since pre-FATF times when cops went nuts on us. I notice that all the shops I used to go to closed. Plus I hardly see rice like before.

Brushless set-ups, low wind armatures, that stuff. Think Electric R/C motors on a bigger scale.

Either that or fuel cells... Someone has to come up with a cheap way of getting hydrogen out of water...

Personal agenda? Do I know you from off the site? No. The reason there are moderators is to keep things civil on the site, you broke the rules multiple times. Thats it...there is no personal agenda. You shouldn't have posted racist shit.

Just like we see people moding older 240sx's, civics, sentras, f bods, vettes, we will see the same trend in the future. We wont be around long enough to see a significant change in automobiles. 10 years from now, people will be picking up c5's, 350zs, g35 coupes, civics, and shit. Cars like the 6 speed cl will be rare and wanted my a few hardcore honda enthusiasts.
