ricer?

BrianEclipse · #1 10-09-2004, 08:31 PM

im new to import tuning but taking every chance i get to watch and help friends work on their cars. doing alot of studying on tuning and eclipses. going to drive my truck over the winter and learn as much as possable about working on my car. come spring im going to go to work on it and make it as fast as it looks.

right now the car fits most ppls def of a ricer, but have major plans for it. am i still a ricer?

wings coming off and getting a not so bright paint. i do get discounts for the sticker its not pointless

let me know what ya think

i think it would look better with a gsx rear spoiler.

didn't you already show us your car?

BrianEclipse · #4 10-09-2004, 08:51 PM

yeah it was more of a question than showing it. i feel retarded driving it around lookin the way it does with only the cat back and intake

.
was askin if you all thought i was a ricer eventhough i got plans for the engine. sorry joe

The spoiler is the only thing I can't live with. The paint is obnoxious too but it's a lot of money to paint.

well i have a few friends and a brother that have been into imports awhile and know the right ppl to get things done cheap so shouldnt be to bad to fix the looks and the engine up sweat. just i want to do as much to the engine myself that way i know how to work on the mechanics. dont believe you should drive it if ya cant fix most of it yourself. most of all a modded car. am i right?

you should read alot on the stickie up top and make sure you use the search button.

personally.....lose the wing..as you have decided to, and the same for the paint, but one other thing is get rid of those HUGE rims. it looks like you have suficcient funds so go and buy some nice light SSR 17's. and get it lowered.

george536 · #9 10-09-2004, 11:20 PM

you can swing the rims over this way and ill give you the stock 16s wheels.

well, even thought the stock high rise turbo wing is a little big, its the only wing i like, and i think it looks especially goo don spyders since the trunk is longer... ricer...dunno...the definiation has been so distorted over the years...basically, do whatever u want and not give a fck about what ppl think.
