    Easy Exaust! But I'm soo serious, I'm importing a JDM Spec Accord SiR-T F20B motor from Japan with a LSD Transmission for my very first mod on my new 3Geez. Then I'm gonna spend a hell of alot of money on it, And spend about a year and a half working on it, every pay check will go towards fixing up my car, and to pay for fuel, Fuck eating for lunch and dinner, I'll live off my parents HEHE

    What he's saying is that in virtually every post that you respond to you mention the f20b yada, yada, yada, like we haven't seen it in every other post that you've made, along with all the crap you're going to do to it yada, yada, yada....

    I think they basically mean they don't care about what you're talking about until you actually do something.

    Well if thats so, Everyone else posting in here.....SHUT THE FUCK UP, because that is what everyone else is doing, talking about thigns thier going to do to thier cars, And if you knew the price I'm looking at for doing this swap that nobody has done before (ESPECIALY to a 3rd Gen Accord), You would get an "IDEA" of how serious I am aboug performance, exactly what the thread is suposedly about, but you know what, Since that remark from a few of you has been let out, I'm going to be the one to shut the fuck up, I'm thinking I should just stop posting anything because, all I get is hardkore shit over everything I say, I'm tired of it, and I've had enough.

    Now your getting somewhere. The problem is in that you don't see your post's as being different than other's talking about their plans. But the other's post's are different, and your relentless in how offten you bring it up. Until you see things that way yourself, your gonna continue to hear things like they've said allready. Now it any of this sink's in, I'll be shocked, cause I know your not going to change anything. Oh well, more people whinning

    OKay, in my opinion the so called 'serious performance' does not include an engine swap. If u really are a tuner and wanna tune a car, stick with the motor u have in hand. Cause as many will agree, engine is the heart, u change it, it aint the same. use the stock, modify it, customize it. Make ur own shit in ur damn garage. Come up with new shit that would adapt with the stock, but will boost hp. There are somethings that can be done on our own, its just we dont have time to do it. I am sure like 70% of ppl here know how to machine (using lathe or machine and some bullfrogs do know how to work a CNC ). Well, u want performance and wanna earn respect, cut the crap talk and do ur homework. Push ur motor to the limits with common sense and u will see, u wont even have to utter a word to earn respect, cause what u have done will speak for itself. This goes to everyone including me.

    Thats my thought.
