If you go to the website and go to the very bottom of the page, you'll see a link (I'd link if I knew how) called Technical. You can see the mods that they've actually done on the GE.

PS Looking for Function Form Type II Coils for GE

rep for you sir.

you know what the funny thing was with that article? it kept talking about everyone who was 'hating' on him. i thought they meant people against stupid offsets.



...no. NO, they meant people hating on him by not thinking he could actually FIT those wheels.


is this really what the honda scene has come to?

FAIL.

I just didn't like the car all the way around. If I recall correctly, the Lego engine bay, and the wheel offset and the whole package doesn't do anything for me. I guess to each their own. Not my money wasted.

I guess I have to check Borders near work and see if there's a new issue out yet.

I hated the wheels they put on there. The stock ones were better. All they did was bolt on a bunch of carbon fiber junk.

Mugen GE from the factory > Honda Tuning's GE.

I don't think the carbon fiber was junk, but i do agree that their taste/level/style of tuning is less than stellar-especially coming from the par set by Honda Tuning. You'd figure they'd actually get down and dirty with the GE with some performance parts and/or crazy enough to insall a AFC-Neo? Oh wait, that was already done ( ) Guess they were a year too late
