Honda tuning actually did an article/rant on this loyalty drop-off. It sucks that so many people's new focus is the SR20DET instead of the potential of the K-series. Sometimes I think that if we were "blessed" with another Fast and the Furious movie that had a variety of rides, we might reclaim our some support and introduce a new generation. Tokyo Drift made so many kids run to mommy and daddy screaming they wanted a turbo charged Nissan, Toyota, or Subaru so they could go sideways like in the movies! Don't get me wrong, I have respect and admiration for a lot of cars that aren't a product of Honda. But true Honda lovers will always come back, and most will never leave. On a positive note, there's been a decline in "vtech, vtek, vteck", how do I wire vtec, can I use by d series tranny with my new b series motor, and my favorite "i just got a cold air intake, how fast will my car go and how much horsepower do I have now?" lol
Anyways, anybody who's reading this thread, thank-you for not being a trend chaser! We need more like you!
