red suns

Post by **gunclap** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

LoL...well it's been a while, but i just thought i would share this with everyone.

well a friend of mine has a '93 rx7 and he's been talking about fixing it up and stuff like that. on my way to class i always pass by his house, so i see his car a lot. one day i passed by and i see a freakin sticker right above the left side, rear wheel of his car. i slow down to read what it says and in big black bold letters i read "Red Suns." i was freakin shocked at first because he was talking about putting some kind of a sticker like that before. after that i just laughed my a$$ off.

so yesterday i went to my bro's friend's house and i mentioned the red suns sticker to him because he lives across the street from my friend's house. he told me that he put another red suns sticker on his window and on the left fender of the car. he also took off his oem spoiler "to make it have the clean look." i guess he thought he could drift better with those stickers on.

the car was fine the way it was when he first got it. the sad part is that there's no one to guide him. i mean..he's been in and out of the shop for stupid reasons that, if only he took the time to learn, he could fix it on his own.ohh well whatever floats your boat.

that's just ruining a FD. Get it from him!

Post by **Mr1der** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

what the hell is his problem?

is it even yellow?

those yellow FD's with the headlight conversion:drool....

too bad they're kinda cramped for me to drive them, no way could I wear a helmet in one.

ok, here is what you should do....take the car, and force him to sign the title over to me, then drive the car to me and give me the keys. I will take good care of it.

oh yeah, I forgot about having an idiot ricer friend with a TT FD, the douche locked it up or something after changing vacuum lines....

he's apparently teaching some guy to drift while he himself thought you left foot brake a FWD because it's FWD...

he also thinks that you need atleast 400 hp to drift and that's what all drifters have...

It saddens me that idiots get the cool cars...

why does it always seem to work out that way - the idiots and spoiled rich kids get all the fun toys :-(

Post by **driftkaztik** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

well, what can you do? let him learn his lesson.

on that factor of the sticker, i wouldnt represent something in a cartoon, but I'd do that with my crew sticker.

After I get my fc painted, i'd put my team sticker "Reaction" above the rear fender.

that would be neat if he created a replica of the cartoon car just like Steve did out here with the corolla.

Post by **D1SR240** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

the funny thing is some kid can probobly beat him in a stock 86 corolla.

Post by **driftkaztik** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

yah know, i do want a replica of Ryosuke's ride, but not down to detail of the same stickers. the car is simple with stickers.I actually think the creators captured something good with how teams put on their stickers. Evo's put them on their rear window as an example.

flame me all u want but i think its cool...well thats cuz i am an anime fan

Post by **Nathan** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

Ok, could somebody explain what the heck "red suns" are to an unhip guy like me?

Post by **The Mic** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

the redsuns are a road racing team in the japanses anime " initial D" , they are a high level road racing team in the cartoon

Post by **Nathan** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

Ahhh, silly me should have assumed it was something from Initial D...

Post by **The Mic** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

You guys think the name Night Starz for a racing team sounds fruity?

Post by **Nathan** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

Yes. I also think having a racing team is fruity. Yes, I am an unhip, uncool, grumpy killjoy.

Post by **Mr1der** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

damn nathan, how old are you?

your certainly not hip cool and 45...

Team Super Rad will own you!

we're trying to legalize slavery you know:D

Post by **gunclap** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

i should paint my 240 like a panda trueno and put toyota emblems on it. then put a sticker that says "tofu shop" written in japanese on the side. then sell it on ebay for like 10k. that's good business right there.

Post by **Megaseth** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

are the stickers even red??? if not then they're not right. i have the night kids stickers on my 240, but i had them on there last summer. people ask who the night kids are and i tell them its my racing team.

but yah has anyone noticed how gay some of the racing team names are? and they misspell and foneticolly spell them wrong too. i saw this goofy *** teg that was green with yellow tiger stripes, the guys team is like wiked designz or wiked conceptz or something. effin gay!

Almost 20 and already uncool

What do you think about the idea of making a replica of the Impact Blue Sil Eighty?

Post by **driftkaztik** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

hyb force soldier, I think its cool.

making a replica car is cool. But for me, I would make a replica car, but not down to the stickers. For instance, i'm want my FC to look like ryosuke's of Redsuns and I'd put my team sticker above the rear quarter panels like his too.but of course i'm gonna have a body kit, maybe a different wing or keep the square lights instead of going to round ones.

Post by **180fan** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

yeah they're pretty cool. Also pretty good cash cows. A while ago, club4age was tossing feces at one ebay auciton of a "replica" of the 86 from initial d, the rims were similar but not right along with wrong stripes on the side. Along with that, the engine was a 3ac with an awe inspiring 70-80hp. Went for 7k...

Post by **Nathan** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

replica = rice although it's nice to sell them to idiots for more than they are worth. oh yeah, racing teams = rice too.

Post by **hyb force soldier** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

Haha, that is why I love the Impact Blue Sil Eighty, no stickers lol. Just need to get a S13 front end (projectors, not squares), 180SX center panel, and an SR later on. Found the right body kit (Sil Eighty has jdm bumper and skirts, going for kit for aerodymanics and cooling) and paint, but the wheels are too hard to find in my opinion so I'll go for Volk Racing TE37 because I like light weight. Bleh, I need to get a job to buy a 1991-1993 240SX Hatch first haha.

My buddy has a AE86 Hatch and had the paint scheme match the two tone panda look from Initial D. High compression block, TRD header, HKS cam gears, HKS Hi Power Muffler (sounds so bada$$) MOMO steering wheel and shift knob, upgraded receiver and speakers. Looks pretty similar except he has Long Champs and a rear spoiler (J-Blood or Crystal Body Yokohama, forgot which) because he didn't want it to look too Initial D. Oh yeah, no Fujiwara Tofu Ten sticker!

you forgot the drift wing, like mine, and yeah, those work mesh wheels are pretty damn hard to come by here, and if you find some, odds are they're used and cost as much as a set of volks.

Post by **hyb force soldier** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

Yep, the rear spoiler. I think I'm going for a Bomex one. Where can I find picks of your spoiler and which one is it?

i just have a wangan wing. looks kinda like this http://www.jspec.com/small180wangan.html heres another... http://www.jspec.com/s13bsylewg.html

i'd go with the bomex one or one of these from jspec.

Post by **gunclap** » Sat Nov 08, 2003 4:51 pm

where's the decal? i can't see.

well i'm going to make a sticker as well. i'm going to put it on the windshield of my car. it's going to say "stupid ricers who make team names and can't even drive that well" jk. do what you want. it's your life. make it out of something. as long as you know how to read.
