I was such a riceboy when I got my 92 GS-R

1. Cone air filter on stock intake tube.
2. Droped rear section of my exhaust.
3. Let my friends talk me into cutting my springs.
4. Some Japanese letter sticker supposedly said HIGH SPEED, prolly said DUMBASS AMERICAN CANT READ JAPANESE.
5. Painted Interior white to contast the black, started chipping the next day.
6. Buying some 17 inch white Motegi rims cuz they looked "Sweet" with my interior.
7. Clear corners with red led APC lights.
8. Red led APC taillights.
9. Cleared the amber out of my stock bumper lights, yes more red led lights.
10. Bought a stage 4 clutch from SPEC when the stock one went out. Had to rebuild the tranny once the beast tore up my gears.
11. Rear seat removal and gut.
12. Ebay shortshifter that broke while driving.

All this in the first 3 months I owned my car, successfully dericed and learned a valuable lesson. Then the dumbest move of them all. Sold a 1992 GS-R with a tad over 100k miles with a new milano red paint job. I miss that car.

this is an extremely funny thread -- i have laughed so hard at some of these... here goes mine

1st Car - 86 Mazda 626 - 16 years old

- 5% Tint all around including the the top quarter of the windshield
- Black lights mounted to the headliner - the interior looked purple at night.. but when you wore white it looked cool....lol
- Buying Radioshack speakers and saying they sound great - I told my friends I have 6" Subs on the rear deck
- Wiring all the speakers to a pyramid amp and no name EQ in front - the car sounded like a pair of headphones turned all the way up
- Adding 6" muffler tip to a 1" stock oem exhaust pipe

6th Car - 2000 Civic Dx Hatch - present time...
- 17" Wheels
- EP3 Seats

well i stopped myself for a while now, but i now see im not the only ex-ricer...

94 s10

-dark blue cowl induction hood on a light blue truck
-light blue taillights to match the paint
-blue front turn signals (got pulled over)
-pep boys fogs in the upper grill
-side exit flowmaster exhaust with dual chevy bowtie tips. (sounded soooo good tho)
-autozone cone filter on the intake tube, stock filter in the pan, tornado in the pan (it was throttle body injection, so it had a carb style filter pan)
-stock wheels painted flat black with crome trim rings
-under dash neon
-white face guages
-white face ac panel
-duct taped paper towel rolls to stop the rear flip down seats from squeaking

only good thing i ever did with that truck was put 250 pounds of sand in the bed for traction

As for me it's not so much a mod, as it was trying to get some dents removed. A couple guys stopped me one day in a parking lot & told me they could pull the dents in my car for about $100 in just a few minutes. They told me they owned a shop & that they would do the bondo work the next day since they would be using a slide hammer. Well, they went to town on 3 different dents on the side of my car. They popped one hole in each dent and slide hammered them out nice & quick. When I went to where there shop was supposed to be to get the holes filled, I found myself completely boned...

Its been 2 or 3 years now, and I still have 3 small holes in the side of my car...

x2 wow.... same **** happened to me, i still have a hole near my passenger door...
