Modified, hands down in my opinion.
(SCC was on the top of my list until they went under and some writers are now working with Modified)

Import Tuner would be a second and then Honda Tuning after that as it pertains to all Honda makes.

Too many girls in Super Street, not enough tech articles, and there are magazines that show plenty of girls out there so take your pic.

I honestly don't think theirs one good magazine out there for imports.

I read modified, and with each issue I receive I can't wait for my subscription to end. Their s2000 tech is ok since they started that, but ever since they have this new editor its not good. Modified was great when it first came out.

Honda Tuning is junk now. Every once in a while you will get a good issue, but generally Honda Tuning is a printed version of the Honda Tech forums.

I haven't seen Import Tuner in a while, but the last few times they were more HIN oriented. I might have to check out a resent one and see if its changed.

Grassroots Motorsports is better than all of those listed in the OP.

i prefer honda tuning and then modified.

both are about the cars, the tech, and the builds. little fan fare, corny writing, and lame jokes.

I made the mistake of dedicating myself to 2 years of Super Street. It was bad when I renewed my subscription, and now I think it's only worse. Most of them go directly to the garbage. When I do buy, it's Grassroots Motorsports or Honda Tuning. I may check out Modified based on some of your comments though.
