Default Rant.. continued.

Now it wasn't my intention to spark up an arguement.


I wanted to get viable pro/con's on each setup.. h22a/turbo.. and b18c1/turbo..


As well as discuss the possibilites of staying in-house (import rather than domestic) and getting a bit cheaper alternative, RWD, turbo, and not have to build the motor up just to handle a higher amount of boost.

I also wanted to find out reasons for building up the cars you do, why you enjoy it.. why you enjoy that car in general.

B18C5-EH2... no reason to lock the thread.. I'm not trying to spark up controversy, I just wanna get to know some people and broaden my knowledge, if you can't respect that, I guess I'll have to go on threads and start saying things opposing what the poster put up and you'll have to lock that too.

Apparently you don't understand why the last thread was locked?

EDIT: Here I'll help you. The motor vs. motor threads have been beaten to death. As far as the RWD vs. FWD vs. AWD thing is just depending on how much money/what you bought.

Apparently. Like I said.. I'm just trying to get discussion going, not flames. These immature people had to come on and start saying this and that when we could be civilized and just discuss.. simple as that.

Really? Okay. Fair enough.

and have a smooth ride that is RWD and will decimate all at racewars.. hahaha but yea i'd be pretty quick.. quicker than a GSR hatch, just as quick as an H22 but with less problems probably.
So now a boosted SR20DET is automatically more reliable than the Honda camp, right? Do you really think that nobody saw that flamebait?

I respect that. We are all glad to discuss such things, but the way in which you started the conversation off got us all on the wrong foot. I am open-minded about other makes and models, including Nissans and domestics too, but unfortunately too many other here are NOT and flamewars are inevitable.

Well if you intentionally try to get others' topics locked I'll just delete your account and ban your I.P addy.

And your personal attacks via IM will get you lost here pretty quickly too bro. Ask anyone here - he or she will tell you I am extremely fair, but if you try to push my buttons intentionally I won't bother having you around long enough to get annoying.
