"i just don't understand imports sometimes" are you basing all imports off this guy? you realize that if that guy bought a mustang the next day, his mindset prolly isn't going to change.......also a stock maxima se CAN be a decent match for a stock 97 stang gt

about once a week, i find some dickhead (usually high school kid) in a fox-body hanging halfway out his car, yelling to me how imports suck, and revving the crap out of his car at me.........and we are usually bumper to bumper in traffic.................

Good, pull some of my comments out of context. If you are making your car look fast, before it is fast, you have issues as far as I'm concerned. That's the "show before go" mentality. If you want to build a cruiser (slow car, cool sound) that is a different story altogether, just don't run thinking its fast. I forgot that I have to dumb things down for import guys sometimes.

Also, I said "sometimes". Does that mean all the time? No. I never said that I think all import guys are ignorant, although I'm starting to lean that way, from discussions like this one. His car would be a good race for me if I had broken my left foot, but that's about it.

I see kids trying to race all the time. Mostly in imported cars because they don't think my car is a real GT.(no fog lights, 16" rims.) Basically, you get kids in domestics that think all imports are dogs, and we get kids in imports who haven't learned that american v-8's are actually a great place to start.
