Default My new ride!!!

Well, ever since my brother crashed my teggie back in January,



I've been looking for another car and just like a month and a half ago (MAY) i picked this up:
(raised the hood myself)
.

Ever since then it looks like this:

.

Its got a GSR swap with PS, PW, and AC. Loving the AC by the way. Has GSR cloth interior, type R shift boot and ****, A/F ratio and volt gauge w/pods, racing steering wheel, SI gauge cluster, front and rear strut bar, and rear type R lip.Came with lots of other parts too such as whole stock interior, greddy evo axle back, type R replica rear spoiler, misc. Its got a few dings here and there but looks good all around. For the price that I got it for it was a steal!

Looks pretty solid . I just don't like it when people do that to their hoods, function or not, but to each their own.

Do you have any major plans for the motor???

well supposedly raising the hood makes the motor breath better. but i just thought i would look cool. as for major plans i'm trying to put together a turbo. right now i've got a CT26 turbo out of a toyota supra and a dented intercooler. but been putting little things into the car also ie: head unit, system, etc...(i know that's just making the car slower but hey the power that i'm going to make is going to make up for the weight gain!!!hahahha)

It doesnt look cool and raising your hood provides no benifit to cooling or intake it just adds to the rice your car is already full of. Loose the wing and the useless guages that just provide a light show. Your wing and sidemarkers looks like your car could take off at the local airport.

LOL gets me every time. This response is like clockwork from every insecure person on this site that doesn't get absolute praise about their car or responses that they like. You've been on here since 05', what'd you think the smart asses left or something?

If your car was a CTR it would be fine. But when your being a poser throwing (fake) oem parts on your car thinking it looks JDM that is a ricer. And yes when people throw wannabe jdm **** on a car from the US thats pretty much ricer.

Call us "no life losers" or "****" but in the end your the one that can't take the truth. If your gonna get butt hurt because you riced out your car then dont post it. Not everyone is a ricer here there will be some people that say **** about it.

fake oem? i think the word your looking for is replica... and also replica parts don't make u a ricer, not all of us want to spend 300$ on an oem lip just to say its OEM . some people just dont care and whats wanna be jdm parts? elaborate. Plus this black hatch is nowhere near rice? how is having a CTR replica wing rice?

i love it how a ST Dummie come along and talk all his ****, ur like another user name Vitamin_b16, same guy that came in my thread talking shitt about my red pinstripe, same ******* that made adminstrator lock my wagon thread..

why u gotta come in here and talk about rice? that ek is nowhere near rice, stop all the hating....he want it that way, let him have that way..all i know i had an ek once and it looks just like that but with an sir lip and car was red..

you should read that definition of rice above, and tell us if u understand it..then compare the pix of rice to the ek, then u let us know.

i have a hood tilt on my car too, aint nothing wrong with it, as a member stated..
