I was going to say was it that Nova as I briefly saw the colour of the car when I opened the thread, why did he do that to that car? I saw the project thread on PNG and saw his plans and at the time I shook my head in disapointment.

no, their saying that the map is shitty in the middle ( so when its on half throttle basically ) but its fine on the top ( when its used on full throttle ) and as they think nic is famous for full throttling it they are saying that JDM maps are shitty on half throttle and the only reason nics car is fine is because he uses full throttle constantly.

Maybe people should start to learn how to do this stuff themselves, or at least know how it all works instead of blindly paying people to do everything for them.

Although in most cases you probably can't do it yourself, it's not as difficult as they make it out to be, the guys who run these garages aren't always the brightest sparks.
Dave A for example, didn't have a clue one day, had a garage the next.

dave gets a hard wrap from most people. he actually knows a fair bit more than people give him credit for.
