dude you got the stickyest rice on this forum...




lol jk

 

Well, there are some pretty dumb kids out there trying to mod their rides. I saw a Honda Civic EX last week with a third party really tall trunk spoiler bolted on it, BACKWARDS. If he ever does get up any speed, that rear end will be lifting up, not forced down.

 

Realizing that you are new to the Import Scene you will be cut some slack. You have to realize that there are people who could care less how fast their car is and just want to put bodykit/rims/etc on it and cruise around. There are also those who build sleepers which in most cases are not visually appealing to the masses. However, individuality is what makes this hobby so great. Who are you to tell somebody to go somewhere else because they have a different outlook on the progress of their car? I have noticed a lot of this mentality on these forums, and a few other civic forums..It is very disheartening.

 

^ he was only making a statment and 99% of this forum would agree with it. We are the anti-rice.

 

yeah, so is seeing a honda with a huge wing dragging its body kit everytime it hits a speed bump

We are all about "to each his own" but some of the stuff these kids do is just.....god aweful

 

Yes I agree 100% that some of the stuff is pretty bad, but to tell someone to go elsewhere because they are not 'All Go' is pretty off the wall.

 

I dont think he was serious about it. Like awhile back I made a comment saying "if nobody liked skittles they can get the hell out" I wasnt serious about it, more of a joke. Somebody even made that as a sig of theirs.

 

 

I see the point in kids going all show, I mean not all want a fast car and do get into it for the looks alone. Actually I would rather have these 16 year old kids running around with a wing and decals than a 250+whp turbo'd civic. I am about as far from rice or anything show you will ever see. Hell I would rather ride around in a car with steel wheels on it as apposed to 17 inch rims. When I had my sedan and it was boosted, I recirculated the wastegate and did a stealth install of my intercooler and piping behind wire mesh plus put a big *** heat sheild hanging over my mani/turbo. I am not a racer and I dont want others to come up on me like I am one on the street. But I hold no bad assumptions of those who dont want alot of power and are aimed at fixing their cars looks up and nothing else.

Rice or ricer is used to freely anymore IMO. Rice/ricer is a mentality or an attitude. The guy that rides around with 17's, a nicely done body kit, and a exhaust only is not a ricer IMO. The guy that runs around with 17's, a body kit, and a exhaust that thinks his car is god's gift to the road is a ricer.

 

md420,

That is exactly how I feel.
