yea, this has been discussed before. I think basically most of us are going for show because this car can never be a fast one really unless you buy a turbo, supercharger, nitrous, etc. So basically you have a market for show parts, and ur basic exhaust, header, intake setup for a lil bit of noise.

I am going for "show" to start, then in a few years I will start going for "go". I do plan on doing I/H/E in the near future, but that will be it for awhile.

P.S. - KurupTLX , there is already someone on the site that is going to be doing an RSX transfer.

Automatic=show
Manual=show or go

These cars aren't powerful enough to make an auto fast without the help of turbo, supercharger, or NO2

I started out all delusional and thought I could get a little more um.. lack of a better term... "pep" out of my civy, but then I got smacked upside the head w/ the reality stick

All show.

If you wanted go, go and get yourself another car (even w/ N20/forced our cars are STILL gonna be all show, my roomie raced a 6th gen w/ a turbo and beat him by 4-5 car lengths up to 60mph in his stock Mustang Bullitt. Sad thing is that we had a friend who knew the civic guy, and he said he spent over 10k in mods!!!)

I agree with HondaChic (no, this isn't what she said... go back and see for yourself... anyway...)

I'm like most the people who replied to this... more show... we all know why...

As for the Supra, man... that takes a LOT more money and time, switching from show to go... I mean, it can happen... but it's not something many peeps can likely pull off. Two totally different places on the same planet. If you got the money to do it... invite me to your party!
