I love how you guys rip on the miata when it is an awesome platform, just as the s2k is

a civic is laughable as a platform vs platform against a miata or s2k

[ihaveaids]

Depends on your budget and goals as well though. Are we talking road racing here?

I was just giving you a subpar platform as a comparison to known good platforms

[ihaveaids]

Well I will assume we are talking road racing, an s2000 or a miata would be a preferred platform, but I see nothing wrong with a civic. I think there have been plenty of companies as well as independent people who have had great success with them.

better add auto X, drag, and drifting aswell.......

civic would be the preferred platform to get groceries when snowy/icy out

Oh your one of those guys....

Miatas and S2k's are not the best drift cars. If they were, you would see more of them. I am not saying it can't be done. But how many professional teams run them?

Mr. Ihaveaids:
What do you even know about auto-x or road race? What you read on the introwebz does not count.

I was just getting at the fact they are better at drifting than civics are( not that a civic can even accomplish it)....;)

[ihaveaids]

I know very little. Just have seen many well set up civics. AEM runs an S2k for a drift car, RSR used to not sure if they still do, I think thats about it though.

Crazy civic drifting can be found here. LOL.

If civics were such bad platforms you wouldn't see the demand or the aftermarket support they have. what company is going to do R&D for a platform that won't be used or perform poorly. Civics miatas and S2Ks are all good platforms.

um because civics are a dime a dozen, cheap to mod, and all the riceboys want them......

how many S2ks do you see around? how many civics do you see??

Its a FWD grocery getter, /story

do the same mods to a civic and S2k, and tell me something the civic does better??

[Slowica]

you can build a quick civic for a hell of a lot cheaper then any S2K. does the ability to make a relatively quick car for very little $$$ make the civic a bad platform?

[Afsil80]

I can think of a better way to spend $400 than on an intake box.
