Where does acura fit in?

you guys are all ****ing idiots and ignorant and need to branch out and learn about something before u talk shit about it. I will say now i dislike domestics but i respect what they can do in a striaght line and ONLY a straight line.For those of u idiots talking bad about japanese cars. does 4g63, 2jz, b18c1, 3SGTE, ej20 ring a bell? i bet not. cuz u guys have no idea.

I would say you are ignorant as you criticize us all and throw everyone into the same group. I would say what you just said is an idiotic statement. Then you generalize american cars and say they can only go in a straight line. I think you are confusing newer american designs with some of the old muscle cars. So you made a list of engines. I can do that too, LS1 LS6, Lt1, LT4

Here's a pic of a vw bug running a 11.89@110MPH. Like I said you can make anything fast. Remember a 67 bug has 40 HP stock. The best part the bug doesn't look like anything special just a regular bug, except for how it sounds and the larger diameter of the exhaust system (functional modification), for better breathing.

u arent getting the point. Everyone in the first couplle pages of this thread said bluntly that "japanese cars are shit". So obviously after listing those engines and showing what cars they are in and how easy it is to get power from them and show how they would dominate any domestic in handling and efficiency and reilability shows that they cant be all "shit".

And u say im just as ignorant? i believe i said i respect domestics for what they can do in a straight line.....

about the supra......... http://www.suprastore.com/stag7upkit10.html

thats alot of HP huh? i dont tjhink it said anything about nitrous there.. oo another jap car... http://www.onlineshowoff.com/index.asp?section=feature&entryid=24 over 1000 hp.. so u get my point? jap cars arent shit. i never said domestics werent fast so no need to prove some bug can go fast lol. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/banghead.gif.8606515f668c74f6de0281deb475b6fd.gif

bwahahahaha!

Anyways, here is the way i see it...

Japan = Honda = Acura = Rice = Crap

no matter which way you look at it, its all crap!

strongly disagree w that statement.

Honda, and Acura are nice reliable cars. it's not their fault that stupid ricers buy them to rice them up.

i think Ford is a shitty company, have u look at the interior of them, they so cheap when makin the interior is really sad.

I don't consider a $20k upgrade to be easy. That's a lot of money. First off a Supra is an expensive car used for a 95-98 you're looking at 30k and up. Camaro is way way less. So you're comparing a supra which costs 30K used to american cars that cost 10-15k. For that price it better handle better. It costs twice as much. The weight distribution in a newer camaro close to 50:50 I believe. That is good. I never said they are crap, but for 20K I could make an american car handle like a road course race car and still have lots of money to get the horsepower up. The point with the bug was you have a $2K bug used. Take 5K for engine mod, transmission mod and a little suspension and you got a fast car. That makes the total price 7k not bad. I will say that those modification aren't something you can do in a few hours but they are a possibility. In fact I almost put a 2.3 liter engine in the bug that I used to have. I was around 17 or 18 so I didn't have any money, so I got a 1.8 liter engine that made it pretty quick and with a re-geared ****** or a $500 nitrous kit it would have beat a mustang, but I didn't feel like spending anymore money. Now I have a saturn, and it's nice. The engine that I put in the bug 1.8 liter was getting only 14-15 Miles per gallon. The dual weber 44 IDF carbs sucked down a lot of gas. I don't mind foreign cars I don't mind domestic cars, I do mind rice.

I own a 98 Acura Integra GS. Never been more happy with a car. No, it's not riced out or anything like that. I use it for everyday driving and working on putting the rest of my system in it. But, I'm poor and have to save up for Cancun so I have my e12O.44 sub sitting here and I cant do anything with it, lol.

Any car, no matter where its made, can still be rice. Rice is what you do to the car.
