Performance stickers are the DEFINITION of rice :(

"Rice" is the undertaking of modifications that do not actually increase the performance of his car by any significant amount, but rather, try to give the appearance of high-performance.

Have a read of the website from the guy who INVENTED the word.

http://www.riceboypage.com/

I quote:

Most Rice-Boy cars (or "Rice Rockets") have the usual complement of stickers proudly displaying features that the car might or might not have

Posted by the_paladin about Rice:

"Mods with no performance enhancement.........or a lack of ballance between performance mods and cosmetic mods.............

for instance.........HKS sticker = RICE. HKS sticker on a car with a HKS turbo in it = not rice!"

I got a HKS turbo :( intercooler and lots of other stuff

Ahh damn, I said yes, and then voted, then just after I saw the and lame too .. can I change it? Please.

I think one sticker would be fair enough, on your rear windscreen or something, but along the door looks ricey no matter how many dollars are in your car.

90% of stickers are rice

But if you actually have a peroformance part, and have some common sence on where to position the sticker, then i spose its ok..

If i bought a HKS T51R ide put all the HKS stickers i want, but for those who buy a blitz turbo timer and cover their car in blitz stickers suck ass

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
