It's a greenhor sticker in japan for new drivers. It warns everyone else that this driver is a noob. I can photoshop it, with my o so good skills, lol, or get a genuine one! Shiet. LOL

oh plus there are no good pictures of the sticker STRAIGHT on, and not at an angle, or in a high resolution. The picture resolution has to be 1024x768 for it to come out nice and big and clear. And there are no big pics of it.

I know what it is, I just don't see the appeal or the wish to spend money on it...

i want those option stickers......i forget which one is for FRWD is its option or option 2? but if u see ne of them email me i have been lookin for em.. [email protected] also i heard the R33 the rear wheel drive model is insanely hard to find over there because its popularity is really rising...ne truth to this?

WELCOME BY THE WAY!! and in fact it might be cheaper to chop it up and send it here then u dont have to worry about "legalization fee's" theres loopholes to everything my friend

I havent seen any option stickers, not even in Autobacs or Yellow Hat. By the way, no more requests... hands full right now. Im off this weekend and Im trying to find this thing on my motor so I can splice the wire to run lean... so i can blow fire out of the exhaust :D , its hard to find it on the K's black top compare to an S13 redtop... just learned that today from this guy here at work.

Uh, stop, don't do that, Lean bad. Ever seen a melted SR piston? you will if you do that. Careful who's advice you trust your new car to

i asked him about it and he said, that the "guy from Broadway Auto" (a garage and dealer where I got it from) gave him the tip. I thought about it since they actually hook up cars and they have really nice ones that they own... not sure though, might roll there tommorow and ask him..

rotaries do that because they have a lot of overlap and a small amout of the itake charge sneaks out. DO NOT purposely run your car lean, please.

Have a safe weekend... dont drink and drift.. i mean drive...

Welcome, I'm new to this board too. its cool to see people from Japan posting.

Too bad I didn't know the New Driver badge was popular I would have picked some up when I went there to visit my GF's family. I see thos things all the time at Autobacs over there. I went to about 8 different autobacs in the Osaka and Tokyo.

Oh yeah, Osaka is great, Tokyo is too crowded! It took me about 2 hours to drive about 20 mins over here in the States!
