Re: A Diesel Type-R Anyone?

oh and don't you have a Nissan forum to invade, Swift Addictions. The honda engine is one of the most reliable beasts on the planet, i'm not taking anything away from NISSAN, the 350Z rocks, there was a bunch of em at the last track day i did at Infineon (Sears Point), and they were haulin the mail. The Honda enthusiast though is after a completely different rush, i.e. lightweight corner throwing grunt. I'll be the first to say you gotta do things to a Honda to get em to perform, but You can do them w/ relative ease and affordability. BTW, i love that Honda is contemplating diesel, i have one more spot in my garage i'd love to fill w/ a diesel honda.

you said power, not reliability. Yes, honda des have reliable engines, but not quite the best with power. Although, up top, they kick ass, but Nissan engines have power down low as well.
