s2ks are shitty if you ask me... revving to 7k to make some power. thats GAY. they're pretty quick though. but they get shitty gas mileage for their performance.

i heard that just driving around normal in a s2k sucks because they're basically no tourqe wonders... you gotta rev the ---- out of it to move.

whats the best spec FTO you can get anyone know? 0-60? I like the s2k being a honda fan and all but its a shame there only two seats... i need four hence the FTO. are mitsibishi and honda on par for reliability?
thanks

pretty much any car you buy nowadays will be damn reliable. but then again i am usto dealing with older cars like crx's and other heavly modified cars.

they look pretty much the same to me.. but i would go with a s2k b/c i know there are engine internals out there to lower the compression and an inline 4 is the easiest to build a turbo manifold for.

however with more work a single t4 could be setup on that 24V 2L Mivec.

i would go with the inline 4 honda.. not because i am all about hondas but because i like I4's and I6's better.

random-strike are you telling me that you dont like driving at high rpm? thats what muscle cars are for not imports, thats like complaining that your big block dosen't make power after 7k.

What is an fto? The only time I ever saw that name was on grand tourismo.. Are you in the US? From what I get from the other post the fto is a v6.. I think I would go with that one. Assuming its also rwd.. Fwd blows ***.

yes thats exactly what i'm telling you. driving around revving the ---- out of your car to move is homo. it makes you look stupid because you're making your engine work so hard just to move.

if i wanted my bb to make power past 7k i could easily.

is the i4 in the s2k facing towards the back? cause its RWD?
