and u ppl need to wake up and realize that not everyone is out to build 700 hp monster
rotaries (OK so MOST of us are) i like to have a car that is comfortable to drive and gets attention, if u don't like it, tuff ****, don't look
If i could afford newer **** (i.e. pipe, porting, turbo, Cold air) don't u think i'd have it? that's what i thought.....not trying to be an
but I am tired of every time someone mentions anything other than stock external u calling em
a ricer, some ppl like to see different things on their cars i am one of those ppl, i don't plan to do any drag racing ('sides DB+) i just want some power and good looks, i have diff taste than most of u, sorry :P i think i am done ranting...maybe not....yep, that's it :rant:

hey man, dont get your panties up in a bunch. one sticker and some 'cobra-eyes' arent enough to qualify as a tru ricer.
go look at some civics for inspiration. huge exhaust to show off their 100hp. cleared out tail lights to be original. stickers galore, bragging about their alleged mugen, trd and mopar products (even though trd and mopar are toyota and ford products). and dont forget the type-r/gt-r/turbo badges.
so before you even start hinting about accusations that you should get about being a ricer, at least invest in some quality rice products.
:rice: not you!

I have an '88 SE...looked just like that. Still does pretty much, cept the wheels and hood now, but still...
In the defense of getting more power vs more looks...have you seen the good body kits for an FC...they are more $$ then power mods, lol. Yea erebuni has one for under a G, and the BOMEX(the one I'd recommend for you) is a little over a G, but thats it...anything else is pricey. And pretty much everybody here on this forum is strapped on cash, with a few exceptions...look at vosko, sure he's got a great FD but ask him what his bills are like, lol...I've put over 8K in my conversion so far with parts and the blown jspec, and I'm still truck'n along w/out cash... rx7 = empty pockets....you get used to it, its part of the fun. At least that's my story and if I tell myself otherwise I'm gonna go lay on a grenade!

NO man i feel u. just go buy some more stickers and a big fart can and u will be all good. **** spray paint works good too. Listen the only REAL mods that will cost u are gonna be the bigger altenator or battery for all the neons and stobes .... (very popular these days...)
