imports vs domestics (cars) Options

[L00d]

which do you think is better, and STATE YOUR REASON WHY.

i'm an import guy, but i gotta give credit where credit is due. domestics OWN imports when it comes to straight line racing. cars like the z28 can kill most imports just with a few bolt on modifications.

then you got civics.. those front wheel drive pieces of shit =X i don't know why people bother with trying to make them fast or THINKING they're fast, and putting all these gay wings and stickers on their car. it just ruins everything

[mjk1009]

you didnt know that adding stickers to your car adds horsepower?!! thats why you see civics with those sooo cool stickers on them....*sarcastically*

id have to agree with ya...domestics could kill most imports however you have the occasional STi, EVO, and others...on the other hand you have SVT Lightnings, SVT mustangs, Z28's and other straight line cars....

yeah, and even if you do get that much power, it's hard to get all that power to the ground due to the gay FF setup

Yea I am a total import nut and I must agree with you lOOd on the fact that most domestic cars off the assembly line are a lot faster than your average run of the mill import car that is stock. Yet there is something that drawss me to want to tune the hell out of those imports and turn them into beasts.

Then with that tuned monster you roll up to a z28 camaro and he laughs at you thinking he has you owned when little does he know that you are packing GReddy intake manifold, GReddy headers, GReddy T67-25G turbo engine, and GReddy intercooler & piping. On top of that you have an Injen air intake, HKS Racing Blow Off Valve, A'PEXi Power FC Boost Controller, C's short shifter, and ACT 4-puck clutch. Now lets say you are packing all this heat in a Nissan '95 240sx (mmm silvias *DROOLS* ).

So anyway the dumb f*ck in the Camaro thinks he is tough cookies and decides that he wants to race you when the light goes green. You acknowledege the guy and know in the back of your mind that this is going to be easy considering that you are hauling 433HP AT THE REAR WHEELS WITH 1.35 BAR OF BOOST!!!!

You both sit there hesitating, waiting for the moment. You see the light turned yellow on the otherside and you are moments away from blowing this guy out of his seat. The light turns red and then a split second later the light turns green for you.

You take off flying with the Camaro sort of keeping up. As you slam through the gears in your car you can here the blow off valve whistling loudly and your engine roaring. You hit third then fourth gear and by now you left that sorry sack of crap in the dust and you drive off with pride still intact. Goes to show that domestic cars aint all that after all. BWAHAHAHA!!!!

The reason why i told this story is like i said I am an import nut!!! LIVE WITH IT!!!!

**OH CIVICS SUCK BIG TIME I HATE IT WHEN THESE GUYS PUT THESE HUGE WINGS ON THE BACK OF THEIR CIVIC WHEN UM YEA...DUMBASS YOUR CAR IS FRONT WHEEL DRIVE YOU IDIOT!!!! WINGS WERE MEANT TO ADD DRAG TO THE BACK OF THE CARS WITH REAR WHEEL DRIVE!!!! YOU ARE DOING THE OPPOSITE BY PUTTING A WING ON YOUR ,ALREADY STUPID TO BEGIN WITH, CIVIC!!!!**

[k00alah]

yes.. :drool: silvia.. wow..

[L00d]

Tal_Dara, i completely agree with you

it's all worth it just to see the look on the guys face after you get 10 carlengths on him, especially if it's a cocky ass redneck that thinks he owns the road

im a complete import psyco. I love jap and euro cars. I mostly preffer supras, skylines, honda2000's and 240 fastbacks. I cant wait until I can drift, FORET WHAT YOU HEARD ABOUT DRAG RACING! DRIFTING IS WHERE ITS AT!

[*kryogenix*]

i like asian imports. not euro imports. not because i'm racist, it's because the european imports seem more classy, and japanese imports are more for the common folk.

[*jimmyjackiechan*]

Omg, i read the topic title and was like, OMG, another one of these.

These are ALWAYS debated on car forums.

We all now they have adv. and Dis-adv.

It's comparing oranges and apples. No point in comparison~

[noaccounthere]

I think we forget alot of imports are used for the sake of just show cars. As in, their not meant for racing but just for looks. Thats what basically Civic owners do, of course you gotta make the engine look nice also so that explains why alot of owners mod it up. Besides, I think most of you dont realize the cheapness of a civic.

Not that I would ever get one or fix it up like that.

Lol, that's so funny! Well yeah I agree with you on everything Lood and imports are the greatest cars ever manufactured.

[SkYlIneZx4xLiF]

im an IMPORT FREAK.......id say imports, like the skyline, which is fully loaded goes over 1000 hp......but stock cars can kill most import cars.....import cars are just made to look good, but some are made to run fast too.

[hybrid]

I like imports because they kinda look better than the domestic kinds, I think.

[jaeman]

The Evo is like an Import when it comes off of the line isn't it. Domestic/Import? So Evo would be my car..

[rushx]

heh. true, domestics are usually stock stronger than most imports (alot actually). but u can't run w/ domestics forever. it seems to me like domestics usually start needin alot of repairs around.. 12000miles (except for trucks which are alot better than in imports)? whereas imports stock can run much longer.

imports are usually more affordable which is a good thing. but me i like imports, i like the slick non-american look rather than the traditional traditional american-oriented look (like the new acura *shudders.. which honda sold to america.. only nice import acura is rsx)

it also seems domestic engines are better stock due to parts hard to find unless u wanna go for a full out custom engine (mucho $$$) and so it's easy to see that u wanna soup up a civic or wat not, it's hands on and overall ez for the simple mods.

i can't complain, i have a domestic and a import.
