The civic was so much easier to launch too (on cheap *** aftermarket springs and stock shocks ffs).
I guess you proved me wrong.

Who cares if an FD or any turbocharged rotary is faster than an NSX? That is like saying, a 400 hp Rotary is faster than a STOCK 400 hp Ferrari. And a 400 hp Notchback mustang is faster than a 400 hp rotary for less money.

You can put $30,000 in your FD to run 10s, it is still a mazda. An NSX is on a different league, and competed against the Ferrari 355s of the world when it was released. The sound, the personality, the looks, the quality is on a different level.

Since when was an impreza a "sports car" ? The Impreza line was never built to be a sports car. They were just sterioded by subaru to compete in WRC to fight mitsubishi. That was the concept of these cars. They are NOT the top of the food chain in any form of tarmac racing. They are quick, and can be fast. They are NOT sports cars.

I wont race him because " I only race sports cars, not econobox's" He gets so ******* pissed when I say that to him

FWD is just plain retarded DUH.
For the record i love my fc and any 7 for that matter. Yet im also a huge Honda guy. First off hondas can be fast. I have a N/A civic that puts down 12 second 1/4 mile times all day. Second mugen doesnt make a motor. Alot of honda guys are jackasses, ill give you that one, but alot of us are pretty legit.

Hehe, good point I meant "RX7 forum". didn't mean to leave other 7s outta that comment.

The "glasses" comment was directed at the comment made by the FD driver though (see the quote?).
