Even Ricers are getting nice cars.

Seems as the ricer generation is growing older they're getting some pretty nice cars and yet continuing to rice them out. We seem to have bred an whole group of car enthusiasts who get their junk parts on ebay and want to find the next cheap mod to do without any care for results.

What next? An NSX with APC parts!?!?!?

ex. a TSX owner putting Ground Control coilovers of a different car not even made for his chassis and "making them fit" so he can have the slammed look. He also managed to find a "JDM" ricer exhaust to get custom welded onto his car. Since when does having a super low car with no care to balance make it handle better?

This is an excerpt from another board ... These are his exact quotes... Guess what? he thinks his old Accord Ground Controls make his TSX handle better because "they have a higher springrate" and he was convinced the higher spring rate would make them "corner faster" though they're not made for the car nor the chassis application. *sigh* so sad...

Enjoy...


like the slam????

CIVIC i think you're kinda a pr!ck for even making this post, because it's such a negative sentiment.. you're dissing this guy and his car so bad; to me you're just ignorant.. maybe he is too.. but you're worse because you premeditate. makes me sick man... maybe he likes his car , maybe he's not brand loyal like you and likes his exhausts . i don't know man.. i think the car looks nice and i woluldnt have said sh*t.

seems like you have some kind of problem with yourself talkinga bout "ricers" all the time.

maybe I'M the pr!ck for even writing this and calling you out
its just that there is so much negative shit going on right now in the world...and i think everyone knows it
we don't want to pile more of it up right?
show some friggin love :P i've seen you write alot of negative posts and arguing with people and such but strangely NO complimentary ones. hmm..
anyways. whatever i'm done stick a fork in me . sorry
you probably couldnt care less about what i think
