i kinda agree and think its stupid to just have a car to sit there and look at, but to each his own. if thats what you like, thats what you like.
^i agree with you. there's a spectrum with form at one extreme, and function at the other. you see people from both ends of the spectrum on our forum alone, so it's not really a shock for me to see a HIN fit like this one.

first of all...how do you know he doesn't see the track with the car? second, it's his money and he can do whatever he wants. There are plenty of cars with monster build engines that are just show queens. There's no need for calling someone who build the car from hard work, sweat, and blood and call their action stupid. If you read the article posted, he built the car mostly himself.

you mean the car must be older than 25 y/o? no that's false.

For all information, read more here

Vehicle Importation Regulations

It's really a pain in the ass to import it, and have to get it abide by all the emission and safety rules, but it's definitely doable.

Second of all this is a PUBLIC fourm and I SHG_Mike .... THINK in MY OPINION that its stupid. I have a right to that. If people think im a douche for saying it then so be it. Plenty of people think tracking a fwd 5dr with 100hp is stupid, do i mind? no everything can say what they want. This is the internet not reason so get all uptight

again, how do you not know if he utilizes his car on the track or not from a couple of pics? There are plenty of show and track cars at the same time. It's not about uptight, but if you can't appreciate where there's great work put into a car, than that's stupid to me I guess. but whatever, I guess you're the one who's doing it right and tracking the fit instead of being in a car show.

it actually has both if he wanted to track his car

christ dude its MY opinion, i never said what i do is right. I just said IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII dont like it. You can tell because anyone serious about actually using there car wouldnt spend the money he did, to make it pretty when it would just get chipped and banged up. Race/track cars get beat up, only the high dollar sponsor teams can afford to keep fixing and beautifying the cars after each event.

stop telling me my opinion is wrong, thats not possible

i'd be fine if you said you didn't like it, but calling him stupid, was ignorant imo. He did his own work, and looks like top notch quality especially on the swap. I don't like the way it looks either but I can appreciate the work put into it.
