I was leaning towards those who attempt to make an economy car fast.
Stereotype: Lousy teenager who wastes his money on all these mods when he could of just bought a V8 and had it to start and had something cooler rather than have a Civic that blends into the background.
What's the reliability factor for a 4 cylinder with 300 horsepower? All that power on just 4 cylinders... I just don't get WHY they do it?

No offense but who cars if you own a honda can we get on topic please?
Crossfire isnt that bad looks great know some guys with 100K+ on them. They were put in corvettes as well. If I had a choice and was going for reliability and not something that looked cool then go TBI.

I've got a couple old Schwinns, but I keep them in perspective. I know they are more efficient, just not as much fun.
Anyone that can still make a rotary run well deserves some measure of respect, despite what else he may drive to work. Now, go play with your Wankel...

and my honda well I feel stupid about why it wasn't running right last time around.
lets just say I didn't know the middle terminal on the cap was spring loaded.
but now I will get back to reading the post. I was at work so couldn't quite finish reading the thread

I would almost say carb. to me it seems easy with less stuff to go wrong with it. sure sometimes when problems happen it can be interesting but usually it isn't that hard to fix. unless your dealing with a 3bbl carb of a specific make then it sucks.
carbs have been around for a while and are fairly simple. sure they might not give the greatest running car at times or the smoothest but still they can be a very good drive. to me though the simplicity and reliability of them is part of why I bought one of my cars. need to get away from EFI for a little while.
