I couldn't agree more. These "import tuner" kids take so much grief from the older generations. Why? Because they are hot rodding their cars in a way that their parents don't understand? What else i

Yes and no. The problem is that while there are import tuner types who truly are working to get the best performance out of their cars, the vast majority are 'ricers'; that is, they poseurs with all

Maybe, but isn't this pretty much true in every enthusiast genre? Go where the muscle car guys hang out, and you'll see plenty of roachy Cutlasses with nothing more than homemade open exhausts and a

Those are valid points and I don't necessarily disagree with you. But, there is a serious difference between a Civic, a Mustang, and a 57 Chevy. Most notably is the presence or lack of an onboard com

True, the poseurs are present in every area. But my gut feeling is that they're a lot more prevalent in the import tuning arena. The guy in the clapped out Cutlass frequently doesn't have enough mone
