I'm 24 and when exactly is Festivus? Oh and yes they're 20's why would I lie?



My bad on the 8 second quarter mile, it's closer to 9. Actually, "tuned" CRXs, and other hondas run into the 11s and lower all of the time. This usually involes forced induction on a B-series motor, however there have even been a few examples of NA cars that run into the 9s! A CRX won't get much above 150 MPH, but it would smoke almost any 3 series beamer, I'm not saying this because I like Honda's better I'm just stating facts. And why does everyone call my taillights rice burners...if they check the facts bmws were the first with this EURO (as in European) style taillight, not Hondas/Nissans/etc...

Isn't all this flack coming from the same guys that told me that 20's wouldn't even fit on a 325i? I won't mention names (MPower, Ivan, Speed Infusion, Criminal) but you guys said there was no way 20's would fit unless I rolled the fender which I didn't have to do at all. Ouch, SAMSONSBEAM-1, YOU GUYS-0, j/k. And just so you know I'm just kidding around most of the time, I'm not really a jerk, I'm sure if we met we'd actuallt probably get along and share some pretty sweet bimmer stories. Hopefully I'll see you all at Bimmer Festivus. I look forward to checking out yallz whips.

Thats the reason why I didn't believe they were 20s. I didn't think they'd fit. Congratulations, you've proven me wrong, or right. I'm not really sure.


Please get rid of the Altezza tail lights & weak one piece headlights. I don't know what you're talking about Euro nonsense. Euro tail lights are what I have on my car.


CRX's can do 11s on boost, so why can't a 325? The m50 is a fine motor. Boost it and you'll be happy.

you are comparing a supercharged crx to a stock 325. wtf? put a supercharger on the 325 and then see what happens. or see what happens when you race a stock 325 in a stock crx. a crx is almost as slow as a 318.

you really have no idea what youre talking about. why dont you just sell the car and buy a riced out crx? it would suit you much better.

+1 ^ Everyone chill a little bit. People shouldn't talk sh!t unless they're both lined up on a 1/4 mile dragstrip. Unless you're comparing apples to apples it's pointless. By that I mean exactly the same mods done to each car. S/C to S/C or Turbo at 10 psi to turbo at 10 psi. otherwise it's dumb.

its so stupid saying 'I can beat ur bmw on a 1/4 mile', so fucking what, its not designed to be a 1/4 mile car. put ur stupid crx on a track and then race any bmw, we'll see how that goes.

I don't have a crx dumbshit, if you would read the past replies I simply stated that my car is slow as are most stock 325's and for 15 grand I could buy a turbo crx with nos that would kill a stock M3....I swear you guys are illiterate, non-readin assholes. And no one ever said anything about a track race I just said that bmw's are typically pretty damn slow unless you spend an arm and a leg to make it faster. jeez
