Dont stir up a pot of sh%t- it makes all of US look bad. and I certainly dont want some riceboy charging me at a light. Keep it pure, sane and simple. I happen to LOVE my car and dont want it KEYED by some *** in a civic with a type-r sticker.
Let them streetrace each other to extinction.

I find the site to be very well organized..but I wonder how long these engines would last!! I am out of here. I agree about getting in the face of people who are trying to improve any car.
From the site...
I have found that the GSR is an all around killer performer. you have good low end torque, insane top end and a block that is the strongest that honda makes. if you are going nuts with it anyway, look at what the top racers are running..
Kenny Tran GSR 820+whp
Venom GSR 900+whp
Jensen Oda GSR 600+whp

I would just as soon have my old Honda hurricane 600 if i wanted to 120 mph+ (which i did often in Fl) at least i wouldnt kill someone else for my youthful zest for life.
life is short- dont streetrace. My .02

micah..awesome site. you gotta love a place that you dont have to register and can pick a name and start posting. It seems like a game to see who can come up with most retarded story...

Isn't that a Yamaha motor?
Having owned just about every Japanese sportscar available (240Z, 280ZX, RX-7, Supra...), I think there's a lot of useful info we can glean from those boards. Of course, you gotta sift through 99% of the garbage, testosterone-laden posturing, etc., but the data's there.
It's unfortunate that the last several years have seen the other "import" market pick up more of a teenage, image-oriented, street-racing 'rice' connotation... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />

The very best R&D on turbo set-ups is happening in the Japanese car market. The best Honduh pro drag cars (I don't get it, but someone obviously likes it) are making over 1000 bhp from under 2 liters! There is a great deal of know-how there. As you said, in many cases the problem is sorting through the crap that most certainly does exist. But (gasp) there is some of that here as well. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

Ok I will let the secret out as it has already on the 928 board. The main reason I needed some forums is to study up on the japanese parts and setups because I'm going to open a speed shop in the Denver area and the ricers will be where I will get most of my business, guess I will have to learn to love them... (will be alot easier with their money in my pocket too )
