I need some feed back on my first import I race
Hello all
I am not in with the up to date with the lingo. But while researching some newer innovated boost options I came across the debate between a so called ricer and a tuner. I see that the ricer has a very negative and “stupid” reputation attached to it. Now I have always called performance and show cars either: muscle cars vs import vs luxury. Well after buying my car and making it look the way I want it, putting extra power to it I see that this so called ricer meets my cars looks?! I have had many random compliments on the car and I myself like it. But according to the net it’s a “ridiculous-waste of car” so I am curious as if this is sarcasm or legit. Just out of curiosity I am uploading pics to get some feedback from actual people involved with this forum. Before leaving critique please read below for a background: I have learned how to drift from my Sgt in the Marine Corps and instantly fell in love with the automotive circle. I had bought a 2001 white twin t-bo Saleen from him after he EAS’d. I still have it and am putting a new tran into it… About 2 months later I bought a GT (b/c I want to get my first import car experience in my young days) I do have the following in it: A stage 2 clutch Injen exhaust A CAI Custom Turbo kit Perf chip Suspension upgrade sloted brakes headers Ect (and yes I have every part for every sticker I have minus the Hankooks which I only switch out when I race) Keep in mind I DO rally at the local track and drift (yeah its FWD but id rather ebrake and inertia drift than kill my RWD mustang) anyway I do have a wing but I legitimately use it to help stabilize my turns. I know this is considered a ricer according to some definitions but it does have an EQUIL amount of power balanced with the looks. So how does owning something that I made look the way I WANT it to look make me some punk kid who wants to puff his chest out? Input appreciated (rice but nice, blah, poopfarts, screw rice that’s sushi) I will include some clips |
