they had a tv show over those same cars on spike tv - most of the cars spent more on looks than performance it seemed like.

they know **** all when it comes to the tuning word and performance, but when it comes to the consumer world, rating cars and articles about regular dealer cars, i think they r pretty good.

I think they should stick with what they are doing now... and forget about whatever they are trying to do with that mag.

I have a copy of it. I bought cuz it had car and driver on the cover. It's pretty good. They share a lot of tricks/tips/ and stuff without the annoying crappy ads that are found in tuner mags. They feature a supercharged (or turboed, I don't have it on me now) Celica, and a Civic Si that's stronger than a typeR... A Subaru with airbags... for track and day to day use... There was a RSX-S

They tell ya that big brakes aren't always good, how you can do some stuff with tires and yata yata yata... No regular 7th gens though. I obviously like it.

That Celica runs a 14.7 1or something like that. Pretty shitty whatever it is.

^^ The mag said 14.9 but that's for a GT, and it's got the lesser of the two motors on the Celica. It is however pumped up by Toyota's supercharger which brings power to about 180hp (according to the mag)...

IMO, HondaTuning Magazine is great. Recently ordered it, just got my second issue.

Regardless from good articles, great source for finding discount products.
