i just hate the people who have minimal upgrades to a car and show off by flooring it off every stoplight. im at a stoplight in my 2001 nissan pathfinder, and a 90-95 integra pulls up next to me. i can tell hes the type to floor it because he keeps creeping up and revving his engine. I see him launch of the line so i decide to floor it. overall i killed him easily. my pathfinder is bone stock with almost 100k miles.
 
That's funny... but uh... I don't think it's a clear cut "spec" difference if you know what I mean. :lol:

The only Hondas that i've seen that have been riced are Civics.
Oh yeah? :D

Spiced up Accord 👎

i have only had one honda car in my entire life, it was a 1988 honda accord DX, and the only reason im posting this is because it is in GT4 and i put the same rims (as close as i could get) on it and scanned the only pic of the car i had ;)



too bad the one in GT4 doesnt come in black <_<
 
oh my god, that bear is so gonna be my next avatar.
 
It seems that words cant explain how good this pictue is. I think it just about proves to all those Honda mockers that Honda are the best! And since this appears to be the emoticon of choice i reiterate:

You can't really say that one certain type of brand is the best. People have different opinions. You may like it somebody may not.
 
I don't hate Hondas. I think they have some quite cool cars. 240hp from a 2-litre naturally aspirated engine sure is amazing. And the S2000 is pretty nice looking too. I also like the NSX very much, mostly because it's well balanced middle engined car.

Civic Type-R is also pretty impressive. One of the best hot hatches in the market. I don't know about the Integra since it's not on market here in Finland.

Civics are actually quite rare where I live. You see much more Focus's and Golfs than Civics here. Though I know one basic new hatchback Civic, and it's all rice. But that's not Honda's fault.

All in all, I think Hondas are great cars. They're reliable and pretty good looking. Some of them offers great performance. Again, It's not Honda's fault their cars are popular within ricers.

preference, people...it's about preference and lifestyle as to really what kind of car YOU want and NEED

by the way, what does any of this have to do with GT4?
 
Hãt©h
The Honda owners that ruin it for the rest of us are the 16-25 year old kids. These are the guys out there droppin $50 intakes and $40 exhausts on their cars and thinking they have something. Myself (like the guy who posted the picks of the accord and s-2000) I'm a weekend racer. I like to go to the drag strip and run anyone. I have only about 5K into the car (not counting purchase price) but nothing brings more joy than laying waste to some guys 30K Mustang. Or even dropping the hammer of that Civic against some guys Integra. Tuner is what I like to call myself, Ricer is what I call the kid across the street, that 2 years later is still talking about buying that b-18c....

*second post*

Bring that $hit to Colorado. I wish I was where you are. My 97 hatch would spank that (SE-R) like a pimp smackin a ho.


As I've previously said, my car is bone stock. My POINT is that these teenagers with thier $50 part here and $50 part there STILL get spanked by my bone stock SE-R--all those stickers and cheap rice parts still does not mean your car is fast. It takes hardcore engine modifications and several thousands of dollars to have a really good car that's quite fast. It takes more money to make a 4 cyl. as fast as a V8 with a S/C and or NOS. So, you have $5k in your car...then it's ****ing OBVIOUS you'd beat my BONE STOCK (get the message?) SE-R with that kind of money. Now, ... show a picture of your car so we can see if it's "riced"or not...I'm just curious. If you have a coffee can exhaust, or stickers, or fake "R" or JDM emblems, "white out" or other "rice" tail/head lights, or any part of the car a different color or primer color...then that classifies as rice in my book. I rarely see a respectable Honda around here...infact in the last year I've only met ONE really cool Honda owner (who happend to own an Integra). Oh and by the way, you may be able to beat some $30k Mustangs in Colorado...but that wouldn't fly here in this area. We're dominated by high powered muscle cars on our drag strips (as I visit frequently). All it takes is a few $k's worth of mods + NOS to outrun any "ricer" or as you put it Japanese car "tuner". I see it week in and week out. I helped out our team build a '90 Mustang GT with a Novi 2000 S/C with some NOS that consistantly owned Japanese cars at the track in Denton TX a few years ago.

Just don't take my post(s) personally, YOU may be fine...I'm speaking in GENERAL for what we have around HERE. 👍
 
where are all the pictures? this is in the photo/video forum

i like both hondas and nissans
each have their own pros and cons

why should we spend half our lives telling others how crap their cars are?
why not appreciate and praise the wonderful cars we have?

Honda's certainly don't suck. As a matter of fact Soichiro Honda is a true hero for me. The way he build up his cars in that time was just something out of this world.

But i hate people blowing up on their Honda as THe ****. That's clearly not so cool as they think it is. It only makes the reputation of Honda worser. And the one who does it evidently states himself to be a jerk and not a carfanatic. If you are a car fanatic (if yr a honda driver or not) you have respect for a whole bunch of cars imo.

Oh yeah Vtec is awesome and all but a lot of other manufactures have similar systems, just not that civilised as honda, but they are there. Fe the valvetronic technology that bmw is now using.
And the loud screaming engine that you hear in the car when pulling into Vtec is imo a trick to give you the feeling of having immense power under yr feet, while yr not having this stock.
Just to back up what i said above, my neighbour and one of my best friends has an integra Type-r with 223 hp (tuned mildly) and i drove several times with it. My conclusions are pretty much summerized in the above lines. I must add that i really like his car and was almost another guy who bought him one of those.
But i bought smth else. A BMW 320d.

And i love it, it's stock and has only 150 hp but i raced against my friend with the TEG and when i passed 200 KM/H I was gaining on him reall fast. (He was like 3 busses ahead i think), very cool race.
But i just wanna try to prove that honda isn't everything on earth. :)

Oh Yeah, here's my car. i thought that after you read this you would wanna see some proof so......

I had originally hoped (when it was first posted) that this thread would have been about posting nice GT4 images of hondas.

Looks like it didn't turn out that way.
