yes... in america there are magical deserts that are always cold.... IN THE WINTER... they don't go over the low 50's on average like i said...
2 i'm pulling numbers from where i can... i can't read japanese and i don't really care for aussie land since it has little to no relevance to me... as for the bunta deal and japanese STi's... no one ever told me which STi's and from where i just pulled whatever i could... as in the 22b and the American STi's from an older article i have...
3 you can import any cars from anywhere if u live in the US... u just have to buy 2 of them, and get the data from crashing one, then use more money to make it streetable using the data u just got and making it into US Standards... this is the main reason why its so fcuking expensive to import a GTR(r32-r34)
4 I don't live in Japan or Europe... and in america... besides the MR2 Spyder, the Miata and the Mustang i can't think of any other rwd car that's under $30k after taxes... although the RX-8 is really really close... this is in new Stock condition... if i wanted a project car sure... there's more to choose from...
5 yes... the EK9 type R's are decent a Mini would be able to have a decent match with an EK9, and lets not mention anything about the DC2 type R, the new EP3's are better thanks to the K series engine... they're an exception...
finally i never watched the first FnF take that into ur bashing... also if u guys wanted to talk about Aussie land imports say so... don't go around bashing people that don't know where the fcuk u live... its not like i have the fcuking time to click each and one of ur profiles and look it up... i was also not hating on Honda's they're great cars but like i said they're not godlike uber shit... and for your information Civic's make great drag cars... the CRX ranks as one of the top 5 in dragging for FF cars...

^ ITs LETTY. She won "TWO LARGE" as a side bet after winning a drag race

^Its JONNY TRAN and his ESS TWO THOU!!
Neither of them seem to be affected by the supposed cold climate. 50 F = 10 C. If it was 10 C i'd be wearing more than just a sleeveless top.
2 Do some research. Not EVERYTHING revolves around america
6. FYI i think australian cars are crap. Seriously, take holden for example. All their sedans look the same. you cant tell a sedan from a ute until u see the back of the vehicle because they share the same front. the "sports" versions are just large heavy family sedans with the biggest engine they can find. no engineering nescessay. just plonk in a 5 litre V8 in the engine bay, and u got urself a "sports car" What about handling? doesnt matter, as long as its has power. 'nuff said
If you wanted to build a drag car, an FF would be the last drive layout you would consider. As Krazykunt said, CTRs and ITRs are great for track racing. not quartermile bs. eg, my friend's DC5 ITR is an awesome track monster.
you're 3rd, 4th and 5th point are irrelevant to me
aiya_the_aussie:
All cars can be imported to Australia.
U can imported it via as a "race import only". However u need to hold a lvl 3 or higher CAMS lic...
u be surprise what cars can get through as normal imports... If you really want and dedicated enough... any car can get through as normal imports...
oh yeah btw FF cars make better drag compare to FR cars in lower power end cars cateogry... and better for amateurs
Supra_Saiyan:
^ yes but isnt the point of drag getting fast times using high powered 4wd or FR cars?
And even though u can import it for race only, that means u cant drive it on the street legally, You can only drive it on the street if u are driving it to the track with a permit.
aiya_the_aussie:
ahha if its not street legal.. u cant drive it anywhere.... unless u driving it on the back of the truck =P
well maybe the way im saying its wrong... what im trying to say is that any cars can be imported to australia as a normal import...however some cars will need to be moded to adhere to the regulation...but u be surprise if u got a good engineer of what u can get away with...
well drag is not only just about high powered cars... if takes skills to run consistent time....although its much more fun with high Kw cars...
