A new Dislike...

Here's one that no -one has mentioned that drives me nuts whenver I see a car like this:
1) Single turbo 500rwhp cars *WITH STOCK BRAKES!!!**

And Pete, you're my hereo - no one could have said it better and I wholeheartedly agree:
2) "Tires so small for the rim, they look like a prolapsed anus."

More:
3) Excessive negative camber....JUST SO YOU CAN GET YOUR OVERSIZED RIMS TO FIT.
4) Installing a race seat for the driver only. Buy a seat for your passenger as well you cheap bastard!
5) Roll bars in street cars with inadequate or incorrect padding. (recently someone posted videos of their 20B on a track with a padless rollbar! WTF...this is what I'd call a deathwish)
6) Oil anywhere but *INSIDE* the engine


But I've got to say my car, based on what I've read, is probably the most hated car on this forum so i have no reoom to talk! LOL

Regards,
Crispy

Should people that track their 4-seaters install 4 racing seats?

Talking

Then I'm sure you'd hate my car

This list makes about as much sense as a sig that says '500 rwhp at 1 bar' for a 13B

This list was designed to get attention. Might as well say I hate something on anybodys car that happens to see this list. My touring package was Mazda OEM optional equipment.

this thread is about an opinion of popular parts i dislike. i dont see the problem of posting what i did. you dont see me going through the list, picking out people hating re-a diffusers. guess i stepped on EVERYONES toes. i like it that way. but you guys really need to hard-up for the internet. its serious business.
