if you're going to continue making remarks like that and the one before it, then have fun being banned. personal attacks are not allowed.

now, on to what supratuner said (and this is not a personal attack, it's a discussion). you're into all show and no go. to me, that is rice. "let's make a car that's not actually fast LOOK like it's fast and then tell everyone that it's fast." now to me that's just dumb. car's are for DRIVING, not for sitting at a show and looking good. and i already explained to you about the Nismo body kits. you're right, it doesn't change the looks of the Skyline much. but that's a GOOD thing. i HATE big body kits on Skylines. it is made with subtle changes to make the car more aerodynamic and also to feed more cold air to vital parts, such as the brakes, intercooler and other parts of the engine. it's not FOR the looks, because people with fast cars don't care about looks! it's the same with the Advans, they're lightweight and also have very open spokes so that more air is fed to the brakes, unlike those friggin chromies that you like that weigh 22lbs each and have 2 inch holes in them. the car in my signature lost it's front end while performing a 70mph drift. the only reason it has stickers on it is to give recognition to the garage that built it and the parts makers that have parts on his car and sponsored him. he doesn't have any stickers for parts that aren't on his car, and he doesn't have any that say "No Fear" or "Type R". you can keep your "nice clean" slow as hell ugly show car, meanwhile i'll keep my "ugly" 400hp drift machine and have FUN while driving my car instead of worrying about how it looks and what everyone else thinks of it.

Exactly! It doesn't matter (aerodynamically-speaking) if the car is FWD, RWD, or AWD, but this is too off-topic, go to the technical forum for this (IIRC, there was the same topic discussed either in the technical or in Honda racing forum).

Alright lets get this straghit here.

Supratuner doesnt care about getting stomped by an ugly looking car(as he thinks), he jsut wants to make women and impress people.

Obviously, me S13 and Endlesskev like cars because we enjoy the technological aspects of how bodykits work, and how Advan RGs are structurally tough(which is why theyre used for Gymkhana) and why they weigh practically nothing.


Also Supratuner-The point is for S13's sig car NOT to have a front valance cause its gonna get ripped right off when the driver pulls a drift.

And those stickers arent "spud". KEN WORKS is a relativly small company, and they wann advertise as much as possible and let people know they made that car.

Unlike putting APC stickers, where your telling the world you have no taste.

Oh, and hating on "tri-Star" wheels. Go check out Advan Onis or Super Advan Gen2/Gen3s. Even more functional than RGs, yet im sure their "not bling bling enough"

you're not into drifting?

the cars have nothing to do with it. you can drift anything.

the cars are pretty tight. nothing to do with the drifting.
and they look better than a civic anyday.

and jgtc?

pure function. not form. wings mean they're for downforce. that's why jgtc cars and drift cars look like they do.

and... if you're not into it, you're not into the import scene, b/c that's what's big and big in the style right now.

open your eyes.

Could we please just close this thread! These past comments have nothing to do with modeling! This is a modeling forum. And I would love to comment on what has been said but it would be hypocritical for me to. I'm really sick of the arguing. We know some people won't change there mind or even just be open minded so we just have to deal with it.

*Everyone stop replying to this thread if it doesn't pertain to models. Settle your differences on PM! You do realize the more you reply the more your just fueling the fire.*

did i say that?

no.
the scene is going towards that direction
those cars are all about function.

they look the way they do b/c they're used. they're not show cars. they're real.

if you take the decals off most of those cars, you'd see how badass they are.

it's just funny that you're all show no go, but the kits and what not that are subtle but mean looking (drift cars) or wild (jgtc) don't interest you.

where do you think all the styles and designs come from?

oh that's right... japan...
everything you see on your rx7 or civic or whatever was originated in japan. the same place that drifiting and jgtc came from.
