I've got a buddy locally with an R33 GT-R single turbo GT4088R laying down 500awhp.....and he also has a built twin turbo G35 coupe putting down 530rwhp.

Both cars are immaculate...............any interest in featuring him? I can get a mods list and take some good quality pics (nikon D50)

I guess us Hondas aren't good enough for them to consider us on a regular basis. I heard from a really reliable source that a Honda will never make it on there cover page again.

regardless of whether that's true or not, Dsport isn't one of the first-rate import based magazines. It's tough for me to find Dsport where I live except for like barnes and noble.
