Talking Spotted: Calsonic R32!!!!!!

Driving along the Harbour Bridge (Auckland) yesterday, and what did I see?






....the R32 Calsonic GTE!!!! :hehehe: It said so: there on the left hand side of the boot lid: CALSONIC....right above the GTE badge.

I know, I'm easily amused.








(and I should say there was no other rice )

Whats Calsonic? Please explain

Yesterday driving down the North-western motorway towards the city I saw a lowered, bright sky blue old-style Prelude with a huge whale tail spoiler and some weird looking guy driving it. I was in hysterics, I could never be seen driving a car that had so much riceness in it He'd obviously spent a bit of cash on it too as the paintjob was quite shiny and ... well... bloody ugly :P

Also theres a car around my area (St Lukes) that I call the RiceLude.. its a 2.0L Prelude, not sure if its vtec or not, and has clear tail lights, no spoiler and EVERY SINGLE BUMPER 'air intake' or feature you could think of. Its got Mazda GTR ones, and a pulsar GTi-R style one too. It makes me laff

Calsonic supply Nissan and other manufacturers with radiators and aircon components, much as Unisia Jecs supply electronics ....and both were happy to splash their names over some quite famous race Skylines.......
(see Gran Turismo )

laters,

Jon.

(apologies for the boring answer....)

Anyone in Welly familiar with a pale blue Mitsi Diamante with Bi-plane rear wing, side skirts, spotlights and every other ghastly stick-on trim available? I think it has "Blue shark" stickes on it too.

Apparently the same guy previously owned a Purple Astina with 2 extra rear hatch spoilers as well as the standard one on the boot, Cosworth style bonnet louvres, spotlights, exhaust extensions(I think it had extra tips too), side skirts.....
SHOCKING!
