forgot to add this

theres a form of modding a import that is 10x worse then riceing it up, and that is the so called DRIFT PIG i know of ppl who have had nice cars but decided to turn there cars into drift cops even tho they dont drift but are just after a drifter image crazy,,, i rekon

see now, it comes down to what u define as rice, these are the 2 main ones ive heard: very asian inspired eccentric styling, and modification which is made to make the car look like it is faster than it is or using a performance part for cosmetic reasons. and i gotta say, that 2nd definition applies to pretty much everyone on this site. so really there is a bit of rice in everyone. i do agree with you though, people look for that thrashed out look to make it look like there car gets thrashed, when in fact it doesnt. imo its that mentality which is everything wrong with the import scene these days.

Who cares what style people define your car as... if you like it, that's all that matters, and if you like it, chances are someone else is going to like it too.

We all drive ricer cars, given that this is a Skyline forum and the term rice refers to the Japanese car scene... but who cares? Not me.

no mate its not about how much money they've spent on their car

its about cars that are highly modded and showing the viewers the mods in detail

im sure if you had a tough car you wouldn't say no to a magazine or DVD cover/feature

personally i always wanted me car to be on the cover of a mag and it was a massive achievement for me and great exposure for my business

Why are you defending yourself to a fu*kstick who only has 5 posts and is obviously here to start a shit fight?

Outlaw, you need to make some usefull posts before you start bitching about 'ricers'.

Bad day today, sorry :rofl:

not sure what you want to define it as but LED tail lights on r32's or any skyline is rice, shit, gay whatever you want to call it

Even worse on 180's....the ghey round ones that bug out look so damn ugly.

Notice how they all go for a round tail light......everyone wants a skyline...LoL

HAHAHA would make a good sig.

You're fuggin joking right? You think the old style tail lights in the 1st pic look better than the updated Type X style lights? The older style look absolutely terrible compared to Type X lights!

I'm steering towards the the older style but topped off with a Origin / Vertex Bodykit and no spoiler.

Type X, at 1st I thought it was an aftermarket thing but found out its a factory (updated as you said) Guess I don't mind.

AS LONG as its not on a S15. If you have a S15 stick to the factory rear lights. I saw one this morning and made the car look cheap and tacky IMO.

IMO the stocko yellow indicator section is ugly as and the crystal versions (that keep the red part red, and simply make the indicator clear) are a massive improvement

Yeah I seen that before, gives it an updated look but I guess I just prefer the the orange indicator.

    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
    • Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
