In the Euro market the car gets so much respect it's not even funny.

If your talking about the stagered fitament anyone can tell you that the MKIV Golfs are very tail happy therefore if you run a wider tire in the rear it cures this. He runs an 8" wide rim in the front and a 10" wide rim in the rear.
It's not bagged we put the stock suspension back in cause he was waiting on the full Porshe Big Red 4Pot Brake upgrade.

Have you ever been to DKN? Do you have any idea how many civics there are in any given class? There is a tonne of competition there thats why they had to create so many classes in the first place.

Actually, I think you bring that on yourself. You are on a Civic board pretty much flaming civics and civic owners. You've pretty much attracted the attention yourself.

And this is based on most of your post, not talking about the tech post you make and some of the things you have put up that are positive.
Remember, you can do 10,000 things that are good, but people always remember the one bad thing you did or say.
Just a thought.

I don't know SteveZ, but the first thread I ever read on TCC was one where he was trashing civics and trying to compare Z24 to an SIR I think it was. Anyways, that was an imediate negative first impression and I have the same thought when I see his name as the most recent poster.
Now, I don't know him and he could be cool and all, but I always have that fist impression. Lately, I haven't seen many negative things from him, wich is cool.
Anyways, I just wanted to illustrate how important a first impression is and how people always remember that one negative thing about you. It's in our nature saddly.
And BTW, there's a couple people with non-civics.
Oh...I always take what Brian has to say with a grain of salt. I think the oldtimers disease is starting to kick in! LOL
Where were you last night?

To add to all of this, we do have a domestic forum, euro, acura, motorcycles as well. So we are not all just about civics or honda's. We are expanding and we all have had other cars or like other cars as well.
Did a quick search, don't see you contributing to the domestic forum at all SteveZ
Why is that?

not much to discuss there except whats my fav expensive domestic car and why people hate ford.
ANYWAYS, why did this thread suddenly get to a "lets discuss stevez" thread, back on topic.
