You'll find that living in Australia, many Aussies call any Japanese car a "rice burner". Doesn't matter if it is stickered up or turbo'd, the fact that it was produced in Japan is enough to warrant it being called a "rice burner". This isn't a new thing, they were even doing it when my dad was at Uni.

"Rice" is generally considered to be anything that alludes to the car being quick, when it clearly is not. Ie. phat exhausts on a N/A car, fake intercoolers etc etc

Wow, is that truely your first encounter of being labled under the "ricey" banner???

get use to it!!! lol

I work 4 Holden - U can imagine the sh*t that I cop. I've got alot of friends with some very fast good ol' V8's - we always dissin' each others cars - all in good fun. theres soooooooooooo many comebacks for both groups of cars.

The rivalry has been there for years - & will always be there. makes things interesting

yeah Rice can be labelled as uneccssary mods that dont help performance ...... just look at uneekwahns car *stir, stir* :D

or Rice burner just a jap import car.

I called my friends Sigma rice once (he was trying to do it up) and he came back with "If mine Rice then you have an Industrial Sized Rice Burner" .... he made a good point i shut up LOL or you could have Holden parents like mine who go "Whats the jap crap doing under our driveway"

i liked it when i got my car, couple of mates go 'ahhh rice boy'

i was like - whats rice about my GTR

the GTR wheels?

the GTR body kit?

the GTR badges?

I think Jimih has hit the nail on the head here. Ive read many threads in the past about rice and i would say that was the best explaination ive heard yet.

    • Ha ! Did mine as well. Used a Z hose I got at Supercheap and cut out what I needed. Then while everything was off changed out the water heater control block and the heater supply hoses to silicon on both sides. While attaching said hoses to the plastic hose fitting that goes through the firewall to the heater core they crumbled due to age. Got new heater core supply pipes, de gassed the air con took out the glove box pulled out air-conditioning fan unit and took out the heater core went to change out the busted pipes and went nope ! Went and got a brand new heater core, attached the heater core pipes, put the air con fan unit back in, re attached the new silicon heater hose, put the air conditioner fan unit back in got it regased annnnnnnnnd Bob's your uncle ! 5 minute job really ! AND I AINT DOIN THAT SH*T AGAIN ! ! 
    • just under 600rwkw , 1650cc,  pump e85 ~80% duty   Your 1200s won't make it safely
    • What’s the labour like on it? And how much better is it than the stock one? Guessing a lot stronger.    I would be shipping from Japan to Hong Kong so not that bad… 
    • It is the entire transmission BUT you must swap in your old transfer case. There is no transfer case on the back of it. Comes with throwout bearing for the OEM pull clutch and Super Coppermix Twin pull clutch, new clutch fork, pivot, cotter pin, washer, and clutch fork boot as well. Keep in mind shipping is killer for such a giant piece of metal. I got mine from Trust Kikaku USA which shipped a container full of them to Long Beach and I had to pick it up from their warehouse.
