you know youre and fd owner when
When a girl asks if you’re single and you pop your hood
You only race crotch rockets because they are the only competition
Every other car on the road is a POS if its not an fd3s
You know you’re a badass on the highway
A civic that runs 10s is still a POS
You no longer snore, you make boost and blow of valve noises in your sleep
You care more about the car than school or work
You drive your car 3/12 months
You walk to work/school in the cold convincing yourself that you've got a sweet car, meanwhile the fd is nice and toasty in the garage...
You hunt down other fd owners even when your in your beater and wave only to get a puzzled face
You go through tires almost as fast as gas
You source unknown expensive parts from japan to add 2 hp
You love it more than you could think of loving any woman
You're sick of the fast and the furious
You hate noobs
Off a roll is the prefered type of race
You have a brand new set of tires, but you keep looking at the tire ads, anyway
You can quote all of your cars specs, but can't remember your anniversary.
You take the long way everywhere and still get there first.
You can recognize another fd from ten miles away
you talk about your car like it was made by God
your an ***
your a dick
there are always 25 free parking stalls between your parked car and the store you're going to
Everytime you hear an odd sound on the highway, you pull over no matter what the traffic is looking like.
When you're in your beater (4cyl camry) and see a 10 second civic, you still look at him like you can take him on.
You’re in your beater and give a ricer the finger
You have 10K in mods, but the stock stereo system
Atkins begins to know your by voice recognition
Little kids annoy the **** out of you and ask for rides
those same kids tell everyone youre their brother
You look at your boost gauge more than your spedometer
You start to lay out a 3 page plan on what your future mods are for your fd
The local carwash starts to know you by first name and gives you discounts
Ebay loves you
your time slip trap at 130+ but your 60ft. in 3 seconds
Only civics try to race you on the road...everyone else has more sense than that
You spent more for your 9 year old car than your neighbor that just bought a brand new one
Snow no longer means you can go skiing in your eyes...it now means "How the **** am i gonna get home?"
It's 15 degrees outside, and you're heating water to wash the car.
As you're washing the car, you take your jacket off so it won't scratch the paint.
A cop offers to trade you a PBA card for a ride in the car (yes, its true).
You get annoyed when people go "too slow" on off-ramps, look down at your speedometer, and realize you're doing 60.
Its not a matter of if you're ever gonna get a ticket, its more of a matter of when it's gonna happen.
Speed limit signs are the work of satan, and thus you refuse to obey them.
You're girlfriend realizes when you're talking to her on the phone and reading rx7 magazine at the same time.
You're girlfriend one day tells you "You know I think the car's better looking than you are," and you just nod, smile, and say "Yes it is."
you no longer have a girlfriend
The comment above is true but dont let it bother you, cause your car likes it harder and faster anyway
you take offense to the fact that someone has the ***** to say "you talk about your car like it was made by God," as if they actually knew otherwise
when you hear the term “pump gas” you think of $4+ a gallon an 100+ octane
you make more power with one liter than most cars do total
when you hear the words “ Fast and Furious” you cringe
you pull up to a gas station and ask if they have racing fuel and the attendant says "yeah but it's $4.50/gal, are you sure you want it?" and you say "Oh sweet, filler up."
you're talking all excitedly about your car and racing and some people overhear and ask what kind of car you have and when you tell them they make a face like "why the hell is he all excited about a mid 80's mazda?" but then when they see your car they can't believe it's a mazda because they've never seen an fd before.
you have your own special "fd towel" that is 100% virgin cotton that has never been in contact with fabric softener and is the only towel that is allowed to touch your paint.
you have your own special super soft wash mit that you keep in a bag in your trunk so when you're at somebody else's house and they ask if you want to wash your car you say "sure, but your wash mit has chunks in it so I'm going to use my own."
you get out of your car at the Chevron station and start taking pictures of it under the florescent lights while everybody stares at you like you're an egotistical moron and your wife is in the car trying to hide from everybody.
your x-mas list consists of cheap stuff like Lexol and motor oil because the stuff you really want nobody else can afford to buy for you (ie. fmic, t78, s4 rotors..."
you pass by people on the freeway and smile because you're imagining what your car looks like in their eyes and the image pleases you
You have a bag of Zaino products behind your driver seat to get rid of any swirlage that catches your eyes no matter where you're at.
you go to a restaurant you park in a spot that can be seen from a window, as long as the spot won't risk you getting door dings, and then request to be seated at the table/booth by that window.
you go visit friends and family and let your wife do the talking while you stand and stare at your car out the livingroom window.
you have another car that costs less than a GReddy 3 row that you drive when it rains.
you always think of what mods you could buy if you sold that POS.
every roll of film your wife develops always has at least a couple pictures of your car from the same angles as all the other rolls of film, but in different locations and/or under different lighting.
Civic owners think you're a dick when you tell them "Nice car man!" even though you're being totally serious because you used to have a supercharged blue Si
you'd rather live in an apartment and have a nice modded fd rather than buy a house and drive a cheaper car, or stock fd
you spot a crowd of ricers and pull in and pretend you're interested in their cars when really you're just there to show yours off and check out their ladies.
you're cruising along on the freeway and you see cars in your mirrors zooming up beside you but then you lose site of them because they don't pass you. Instead they're chilling in your blind spot, drooling over your car, and you get annoyed so you pretend like you don't know they are there so you turn on your blinker and pretend you're going to hit them.
you tell your brother over AIM that you're filling out a post for "you might be a fd owner if..." and he replies "you have no life, and you wack off to your own car." lol
people crap their pants when you tell them how much boost you run daily.
people think you're talking about your pet when you're talking about your Dawg.
you go browse the for sale section before a movie or tv show, during commercial breaks, and after the movie or tv show has ended, because you never know when that killer bargain will pop up.
You keep busting your *** on the ice on the driveway from the water from washing your car in 20 degree weather.
You never have to ask your friends, "who wants to ride with me" When your all going out.
You would do anything for a girl who owned an fd
You peek in the garage every hour just to see if your car is ok
You love telling people after you demolish them in a race that your mods are, "just exhaust and a boost controller
You have 700hp, but still only run 12s
You only race crotch rockets because they are the only competition
Every other car on the road is a POS if its not an fd3s

Goodfalla Engine Complete

You know you own an FD:
When a blown engine results in "oh, yeah, mine went like that too"
When 14mpg IS good.
When your girlfriend can't match the curves
When a "rat's nest" has a completely different meaning to you
If you have ever truly believed that your car has feelings and will break something when she is angry
When every triangle in public prompts fond thoughts of rotary engines
If the word "detonation" causes severe cringing and/or nightmares
If you have ever contemplated a college course on a vacuum controlled sequential twin turbocharger system

You know you're a FD owner if:
You're 16, it's your first car and you're searching for the loudest exhaust and most obnoxious Blow Off Valve.
Come on guys, is there nothing better to do than this dumb ****?

You know you own an FD when you think every car other then your FD is a massive heavy tank.
You think any car with a straight line/edge on it is ugly.
When your friends think your car is pure sex on wheels but are afraid to go in it.
When cars sit 4 meters behind you at the lights trying to get away from the exhaust smell.
You like backfires -- the more the merrier.
Little kids often know more about your car then older people due to it being their favourite car on a racing game.
When an unbelieve amount of people hang out the window of their cars and yell at you how awesome your car is.
The only people who try to race you are young guys borrowing their parents cars that they think are fast.
When someone sits in front of you, slowing you down at 30kmph then you go to overtake him, he speeds up to try stop you, you blitz past him anyway then sit infront of him at 30kmph. He sits well back is ashamed he even tried to mess with you.
When you are one of those cars people think "crap i dont want to hit that"

When you get pulled over by a cop who asks "what kind of car is this? is it a corvette?"
this comforts you enough that you dont care about the ticket he just gave you, as he thinks your car is hot.

No, it should say: When you blow your engine and your already hitting the speed dial for your rebuilder
Also, I'm 15, have an FD, but I'm not a ricer. I hate that stereotype with a burning passion. I'm actually looking at a Tanabe exhaust as it's under 93db without a silencer, and I'm not interested in an ugly GT wing. I admit though, a CLEAN, SIMPLE widebody is floating in my head. say what you want, but I know what I'm doing with my car. (P.S. I'm not rich. I've saved since I was 7, as I loved cars more than anything. By 13 I was doing what I could for work and researched everything I can on FD's. I payed for it by myself, too. I'm about ready to start my rebuild.)
