NO?

SR20DET or RB25DET VS. B18C5 ? Enough said.

Tein,JIC Magic,and etc. are definitely better than companies like DC Sports and DNX performance.

Cooler is definitely a matter of opinion. But in my area,there is NO other modded 240's I've seen running around....I can't go somewhere without seeing a modded honda,therefore,rare car is cooler! Somethings not cool if you can't go somewhere without seeing 20 of them running around all in your face.

Faster? My DOHC S13 with an auto trans BTW has definitely owned its share of coffee-canned civics with SI's badges,and "Type R" badges....Lets talk JDM to JDM....at least if you are talking stock car against stock car.(hmm...SR20 vs. B18 ??)


STOCK:
Civic=econobox.

240sx=economy sports car.

Wich is better? 100% econo box,or econo sports car?

FR or FF?

And don't bring up NSX,this thread was started talking about a civic....and I'm sure a MINE's(or whoever) skyline would kill a Spoon(or Mugen,or whoeverthefuck you want) NSX....

EDIT:Yes,the S200 is cool,but a Z33 owns it(not really same class,but if you must compare...)

So,how do I not know what I'm talking about except maybe the jealousy thing b/c most honda guys I've met think that honda is the best company,and their specific honda is the best one ever....but alot more of them are getting alot more jealous of the 240sx b/c of the new drift craze(or fad,or movement,or whatever term you wish to call it,I don't care.)

This guy is a FUCKING oxymoron. ^^^

Im not even going to sit here and explain it to you cause its obviously have no idea what you talking about.

For god fucking sake, You are comparing the B18C5 to RB and SR. The Tein and JIC. Do you think JIC and Tein do not make any suspensions for Civics? *shakeshead furiously*.

this guy is comparing jic and tein to dc sports and skunk2. why not compare jdm manufacturers to jdm manufacturers. jun and toda have largee support for civics and integras in japan. probably even more than some sr20 parts. tein and jic make suspension systems for civics too. im sure if you comparee usdm companies for 240s and usdm companies for hondas you'd pick skunk2 over what littlee support the 240s have in the us. (unorthadox racing? fidanza? they only make flywheels and clutches for 240s and injen makes intakes for kas)

a car is a car and it depends on how much you spend on it. i love dc2s and ctrs. if i was to get a honda that was affordable it would be a dc2 with jdm front end. good gas mileagee, awesome at the corners, and na power.

you talk about rbs like they just bolt on. theres a lot of custom work required. SEARCH. if it wasn't for companies like mckinney motorsports making drop in kits that cost 1500-2000 jsut for the parts to make them fit then the RB would just be a dream engine into a 240. of course anyone would take a turbo 6 over an na 4. but stock for stock i would take a 280ps na 6 from the nsx over a 280ps turbo 6. to make almost 300hp na is such a feat. plus the sound of na is sweet. im not giong to say nas are more reliable because reliability depends on tuning. but with an na car the response is instant compared to the response of a turbo car w/ lag.

man i can't believe i wasted time typing this shit. GO BUY a BestMotoring video and you'll see how hondas are tuned in japan.

As the guys on this forum tell people all the time,its whether or not YOU like it. Besides...

Ghettokracker=poor boy.(funny,you say look at my car....I get complements on it all the time,from vette owners like the guy I bought it from,from hot-rodders who don't know what it is,and just think it looks/sounds cool,and from 'ricers'...etc..)

Note:You couldn't disagree with the fact that 240sx owns civic,modded or stock.

I didn't buy the 240 to be a street racer,or a show car anyway....as in,to impress people(you) or to show people up(hondaboys)....I bought it as a car that I wouldn't care what other people think,just to enjoy,and put some money into.

EDIT:as I stated earlier....I like some hondas. I would drive an ITR or even a Teg GSR....hell,proble a base model 'teg,....I would drive a "sleeper" civic. I know the potential they have first hand(black w/gray primer hood,with B18,not sure if its C1 or C5,but it did have a skunk2 intake mani,DC sports header,replaced cams but I didn't recognize the brand,and nitrous) but you cannot disagree that the nissan 240sx has alot higher potential. CA18DET,SR20DET,RB20DET are alot better choices then the B16C1,the B18C1,the B18C5 and the H22A(yes,its doable into a civic....). Plus FR is alot better then FF in general. I like FF,its easy to drive,and has nice things about it.....but there is a reason why the best performance cars using 2WD systems are RWD (ferrari ENZO,porsche GT2,Bugatti Veyron 16.4.....hell....supra,viper,'vette and even the HONDA nsx?)
