no, i suppose you havent seen my car...epitome of JDM rice

*primered black, front bumper of body kit only, zip ties holding 99% of it together, SR20 of course :oface*but i love it

[JayPat83]

any pics? can send them to my email?

[JayPat83]

explain "JDM rice"

[MainEvent212]

[JayPat83]

i used to have that FULL bodykit, four bodykits ago ;-)

[JayPat83]

you know there is a 240 in SC that looks just like yours? except he has 18x8 and 18x10 volk wheels, factory front, and he has a 300hp KA-T instead.

[JayPat83]

if you don't mind me asking, why is the 240 on blocks?

[Smurf6x6]

I don't like the way I'm seeing almost every 240 primered or in rubber undercoat. Honda gots a lot of body kits, 240's got a lot of primer.

[JayPat83]

im getting it painted within a couple weeks man. it looks better then what it used to. different colored fenders, doors, and trunk. got the car wrecked and with hail damage for $1500. so i bought new/used parts for it.

[Smurf6x6]

No I mean people that have good condition paint, primering their cars around here, and rubber undercoating the whole body of the car for no frigging reason. They say it for easy drift repairs.:rolleyes

[Smurf6x6]

By the way I do like your car. Good choice of colours. I was going to paint mine a dark grey but I decide to keep it white. Just going to get in resprayed a whiter white. With a **** load of clear cause my dad works in a body shop.

[MainEvent212]

mine was ridiculously faded burgundy...to the point it looked like drift wood color...for those who know what drift wood is like...(greyed, dull, depressingly faded)

so i primered it for fun...it hides blemishes better...and if i hit stuff...screw buffing it out...i'll repaint it :pface

but yeah, it was on block for a long time...it just recently assumed it's post in the driveway again tho cuz the power steering died on me...gotta fix it

there are a few differences, i'll take new pics soon!

"since when has JDM become rice? next thing you know negative camber, low offset wheels, RHD, and RWD will become rice too i guess!"

thank you haven't laughed that hard in a while...hahahaall the things you listed are rice when they are done to cars that just sit around and never get run. What makes you think that low offset wheels make your car faster than higher offset ones? they just look better. IMO mods that make your car look better or faster than it is are rice. Eyelids/eyebrows whatever you call them, total rice, serve no point at all. In fact they actually block your headlights some, so they take away function of your car. RHD is rice too, cause I see dumbasses with CRX's do RHD swaps. Again, makes the car LESS functional for use in a LHD world. Just cause it was manufactured for the japanese domestic market doesn't make it any less ricey than if it was made for the us market. Don't be silly, don't be ashamed to rice. If ricing is what makes you happy then you take your rice and run with it little man. You go show those Hondas how its done. Take it to the streets.. er.. carpet and car parks. whatever.

[JayPat83]

*takes off flame retardent suit wondering why it wasnt used at all*

guess my car isnt as horrible as i thought...

[andrave]

didn't mean to get involved in the flaming, had a bad day and couldn't pass up the oppurtunity.But to be fair, you asked me what i thought. And I think that taping pieces of carbon fiber over your headlights is, at best, a dumb idea.
