Well, i have a subscription, as should all of you. Second to Super Street, mags for us dont get any better. Although i was impressed with the latest Import Tuner( ya know the one with Courtney Day on the cover) when i met here in person in San Mateo, CA she was drop dead gorgeous, and some how I.T. made her look ugly? i still cant figure it out, at age 20 is she already becoming a worn-out import gir?. I was impressed with thier tuning articles though. Back to the subject: startin on pg.195 there is a really good article on bolt on performance for the Spec, they pictured and explained everything very well, and dyno'd it after each mod. I know this has been done before but i particularly liked this article. So if you dont get one in the mail every month you need to go to the grocery store and shell out the cheeze.
oh yeah, the WRX STi vs. EVO article is great too!
and they gave the nod to the EVO! i am impressed Mitsu. but the STi was a prepoduction model, and according to SCC's dyno charts, it wasn't quite as beefy as Subie claimed but that might change when the production model gets tested, which by the way, they started arriving here last weekend! how that for a memorial day present for all us Americans from Subaru Japan!

No, as I've stated many many times before, I like all cars, all makes and models. I just like to disagree with you because you're you
Import Tuner is not a good magazine. Neither is Super Street. SCC has been kinda up and down lately on content, but it's still 10 times the magazine than IT or SS.
P.S. In case you didn't see the new announcement.....trim the sig to 4 lines please.
My brother has a subscription to SCC, and I like it more than any of the truck mags out there. They do alot more tech articles than feature cars (most of the time), and definately like to educate their readers rather then feed them bullshit.

How can you say Super Street is not a good magazine? and as for Import Tuner, they have always been kinda short on pages and "tuning" article quality, but their last issue was huge, and they weren't all adds either, I enjoyed the magazine. Might i ask what you read? besides Playgirl.
dude, the last IT was decent but regular ones are a waste of money, i have to flip through each IT just so that i know i can find some kind of tuning article in there. iT simply has too many ads in it. SCC is by far my fav though SS was very good a few months ago but i havent seen any good tuning articles from SS in a while but SCC is a clean cut tuning magazine that you can even show to lil kids. but nonetheless i still buy all three if i have the cash at the time becuz IT and SS are still very Entertaining, just not very educational.

I agree just about the same. You might want to look into some subscriptions though man. paying $5 bucks a pop at the grocery store is a rip off. I got 2 years of IT for 19.99. 2 years of SCC for 14.95 and SS is only 9.99 a year... each for 12 issues. However you dont get the extra shit that they some times put in the "plastic bagged" issues at the store though. SS had an issue a while back that had wheel guide article in the mag and they included a CD for the computer that you could view all the wheels on cars and lot of info, but you could always just buy those special ones if you really wanted.
i just went and got it tonight...geez...the rings can take up to 6000 miles to seal properly? the pre-cat snots in the headers as early as 1000 miles? wtf? a great article, nevertheless. every new se-r/spec owner should read this, but i'm sure most of you veterans prolly already knew what the dyno results and such were gonna be
btw, about to hit 2000 miles, maybe tomorrow. should the oil start getting a little darker at this stage? dealer wouldn't change my oil at the 1000-mile checkup, told me to wait until the 3750

The only good magazine out there is Grassroots Motorsports. How many other magazines out there actually have advertising for things like helmets and other racing apparel you need. Not to mention saftey items like roll cages and fire suppressent systems. And most importantly, the tire rack ads actually have race tires like Hoosiers and whatnot. Stuff real racers use.
I read SCC from time to time too, my subscription ran out a couple of months ago though.

cool, never heard of it, i'll have to check it out. is it only nissan stuff?
never mind i just check their web site, i'm getting a free trial issue.
47 NSX's what more could you want?
even if they were all stock, that's about 13,000hp
There's actually an old picture of me on their web site too under the project MINI link. I was flagging the autox at the MINI meet east here in Charleston and got to meet two of the guys.
