Oh I'd appreciate a cleanly done setup fo sho.

C"mon about the weight dude, you wanted the show stopping bling factor. It does not look great.

 

well.. then show me what can you do as a SHOW STOPPING BLING factor.

 

wolly sheet. your wing could be used as a picnic table.

 

Full Race manifold, SC61, FMIC, Engine management, LSD, 3" DP to 3" cat-back. Thats how I'd start my BLING yO.

 

the truth

 

I thought the point of modifying your car was to make it different. And thats what this guy did and that also means that you do what you want on your own car. its sad that people just sit here and talk crap about this guys car. he spent his time and effort on this car and i give him props for making it hella different. that does not mean i like everything he did but people should be more mature and not insult him cuz they don't like what he has done to his own car. he was not asking for a critque, he just wanted to show off his pride and joy just like everyone on this board would like to. there are nicer ways to say things rather than insult people.

 

Thanks.. bro at least you understand where i m going with this. But all of them dont know... that i too did A LOT OF GOODIES underneath my bonnet.

Thanks for your quote, really appreciate that.

 

I didnt show you what i have done underneath my bonnet doesnt mean that i didnt have a SHOW BLING FACTOR.

Let me give you a hint.
- SPOON EXTRACTOR
- ARC FILTER

etc etc etc and about your engine management system... no greddy e-management crap. You figure out what good for a DC5 beside MUGEN computer.

 

Hondata works well for the DC5.

 

Here's my 2cents.. I really don't care if you buy parts that makes your car look fast (Rice).. pointless maybe but hey what ever gets you ladies or whatever the reason maybe for buying wings. everyone's goals are different.

here's an analogy: it's like muscles, some guys are actually working out for a sport (football), working their legs, pex bicips and so on. all of which will make them stronger, faster and more endurence. these guys can actually kick some ass (actually modded for performence) all the while they wear sweat clothes, not wanting to be flashy. while other guys just work certain muscles bicips / pex / abs. the stuff that looks good but don't actually make you hit harder or faster, it's just for show, (exhuast tips, wings altezzas etc..) and they buy nice clothing that show that part off, they just want the look. all the while, the jocks know they can beat down these "ricers." but if the ricers never fight... and never step into the ring... well, their goal is met (what ever that may be).

so my side is... (pretty gay analogy now that i think of it...) well.. i don't get why people hate "rice") altezzas? i would never get them because they don't look good to me. i think lip kits look good on some cars, they don't do jack for performence... i'm sure there's people who will pay extra cash for a bettter sounding exhuast that frees the same amount of backpressure.. the extra cash didn't do anything to boost performence.

i guess i can understand the other side too though.. if i were a surfer and was into it but all i see are a bunch of kids running around with all sorts of surfing gear and stickers who didn't know how to surf. they just like the image and it gets them girls. so the're posers... but if the guy admits that he doesn't surf? is he a poser? (ricer)

i guess, it comes down to... as long as the person knows it's just for show and doesn't say hes got a performence car, then it's fine. (notsaying that type S doesn't have anything which i havn't even looked to see if he did).
