Small Car Sunday

[rad100]

lol whitewalls and chromies!

[Dohmar]

NO NO, All Jap Day is where its at yo'

small car sunday turned into Auto salon. fail.

i love the selection process for AJD.

best part was my mates 32 being refused, was the best lol i ever had,he was cut deep.. lets see if you can

spot the fails, new game.

chromies and aftermarket front bumper, side skirts and rear pods...

while its not my personal style, I dont see the problem with it ? Unless they want to have a show for cars which arent show cars, in which case they should call it 'all boongers day'

-D

I guess an over-rated Camry aint going to qualify either.

hard parking the r33 for a SAU photoshoot

Yer, its a mate and i shouldnt pay out his personal taste, but he honeslty could not understand

why he didnt get accepted. its clear they wanted JDM styles, and stuck to

it, which is why i think the show was successful

yer i know i had aussie made fail rims on my old yacht, but i like to learn the hard way.

and i did.

so you're saying a beat up pos 20 yr old gtr in stock trim and rims would get preference over a gourmet pimped out 33 with chromies and kit?

man. some people are picky. i dont understand that. if theyre that anal, I should enter my mums toyota seca. its japanese. its fwd. its stock. its 6 years old. f**k. why not eh? I'll have to remove all the shit in the back seat but hey, can I win a trophy?

Any pimped out car with gay body kit and chromies fails. I'd rather a factory bog stocker 32/33/34 than some pimped out ugly distastefully modded pos!

nothing wrong with aftermarket kit, but the wheels, whitewalls and the standard height (to an extent) would have ruled the car out. and it has nothing to do with show cars. whos to say that car is a show car and a mint condition S1 RX7 isnt. my silvia is a show car i guess and thats been accepted every year. its not so much cars have to be done JDM style, as theres a lot of stock clean jap cars there. they are just against distasteful mods.

i actually remember that aqua skyline at the kadina show last year, and i heard someone say hes hoping for the best jap award ppfffftttttt!!!!! haha hes seriously kidding himself and setting him self up for a major reality check. sorry if u guys are mates with him lol.

thats the way the show is run, and the main reason its so successful. if u dont like it, take it up with the AJD committee. this is one of the main reasons SCS failed over the years. no screening of cars and a lot of junk getting in.

Gotta say I agree with Dohmar here...

I can see these any day at Colonnades carpark....

they are just against distasteful mods. In whose opinion? Sounds like the door bitch at the night clubs.... and we all want to slap her.

[steveP]

the opinion of anyone with remote taste in modifying cars. white walls and chromies, umm someone tell the dude a skyline isnt a commo.. or is it.

u dont have to agree with anything ive said, but the vast majority of the SA car scene does, and hence the success of AJD. the only people kicking up a stink are the ones with distastefully modded cars who dont get accepted.

[TALBO]

I agree with steveP. Some have this fked up idea that a car cannot be stock whatsoever, so in order to modify it they will distastefully mod with a cheap gay bodykit and chromies. Tasteful mods can be done and done reasonably cheaply, why there are some out there that deliberately choose the ugliest kits and wheels is beyond me. However I'm not arrogant enough to think that mine is the only opinion that counts or that my own car is even remotely hot.... so each to their own.

I've asked it before and will again.... why spend money on a car to make it look worse than a stocker?

[Damo_R34]

i agree, but Shanes GTR is far from untastefully modified!

[steveP]

i agree, its an awesome example of a GTR. no idea what happened there.
