Looks way better with the AVS Model 5's than those 6 spokes it had on during the Super Street photoshoot and during 2F2F.

Thx :icon16:

That car is silly. Pretty, but silly. Thise subs have to weigh as much as ten suns. Ten suns!! They only make sense in a RWD car where they could help with downforce. And why a TV in the trunk? Who wants to stand around the trunk of a car to to watch TV? It's cold outside.

Silly.

But thanks for the link, honestly. I'm just messin' around.

oh, NP willmo. I completely agree 100%. just some good hi-res pics for reference. I know.. why don people put TV's in trunks?? :dunno: :grinno:

Don't like a lot of that stuff. 1 nitrous bottle in a GTR is a shame, 3 is a disgrace :disappoin

Rice, rice and more rice. That's like buying filet mignon and cooking it well done....a big waste.

I agree. I'm not defending the car. there are though, lots of things in this link I would like to refer to and would do to my car even like..

-all the carbon fiber components in the engine bay and the weave of the carbon fiber itself is not so common.
-relocation of the battery to make room for high-rate cooling components.
-lots of good shots of the center console
-sparco steering-wheel and seats
-AVS model 5's
-ideas for installing a system in a trunk
-the c-west kit which is very popular lately.

not debating wether we like the car or not just using it as reference for modeling!!! :rolleyes:

BUT I think you guys would have much more fun continuing to point out all the things we DONT like. I'll start... :evillol:

-I DONT like the APC sticker and 7 tons of nitrous on a car that needs neither.
anyone else :dunno:

THE FAKE GT TOURING PORT ON THE TRUNK!!! What a waste of plastic.....

All the cheap looking trash. Like the turbo shaped oil cap on the head. Or the stupid fake "racing" fuel fillers on the rear. The LCD display for the tach and spedo but leaving the stock cluster in anyway. The TV in the airbag door, and the stick holding it open. All the ugly blue plastic in the interior. The three or four piggyback engine management systems. The random wire coming out of the cigarette lighter and going.... somewhere. The engine compartment, though it looks cool, it looks too complex. Like someone just wanted the engine to look impressive without any thought about how the car would actually run. Like, why is the coolant overflow tank still in the corner even though it is empty and not being used? The car is poorly prepared, in my opinion, for either show or track. There is absolutely no attention to detail. It's how I'd expect a CRX to be prepared. Hell, I'd expect more out of a CRX! What a waste of metal. Anyway, stop making me look at it. The more I see it, the more I hate it.

You know, that's a waste of trash. 1 bottle of laffing gas is bad, 3 is a disgrace, but 2, now when you have 2, it ain't so bad, but you don't kneed N20 for a car such as an R34, except straight line racing, it could help for that.

Seeing Craig Leiberman's name is enough to ruin a car. Each time I see one of his cars, I cringe. An embrassment to true auto enthusiasts everywhere.

I stated I didn't like the way the car looked in the pics on that link. However, I do like the way the car looks now, besides the few things that they ruined with them big fake tanks of N20, other than that I like the car as it is now. I'd be happy to drive it anyday, not because it's famous or anything, but because I like. Just my 2cents.
