i like LEDs/Neons, though as with anything it can be done the good way or the bad way.

i have seen 4WDs with them and that is just silly.

i have a particular setup in mind for mine and i still think they are as much for the driver as they are for anyone viewing your car. though in saying that, i don't really care whether anyone else likes my car as it is an expression of myself.

some of these points people have made about you not seeing them... what about bodykits? rims? etc... why bother with a style at all?

-if i owned a GTR i would remove all badges, even the GTR badges. some people will think that crazy but i don't like badges, i know it's a GTR and that is all that matters.

omg a hummer? wtf?! theyre nuts. LOL

ive seen neons of a jacked up 4by, that was a good laugh, looked ridiculous but it was funny.

Seen neons on lil jap/korean cars with no other mods, driven by old people. funny.

seen a Bus driving around kings park etc with blue underbody neons

The line of sepparation occurs along the performance and knowledge areas of someones background, I am guessing here. Most guys even under 20's who are performance enthusiasts would knock back neons. On the other hand young people who are after a car for an image and are caught up in fads more readily go the neons.

Agreed, I'm 18 very performance orientated, do mostly my own work, and would never have neons. by the time my car is 'finished' you won't be able to tell it from a stocker, love the sleepers.

Not a fan of neons, too much 'look at me' value, and is asking for you to be pulled over.

ahh the mighty can of worms thread seems to turn up evry 3-4 months

do what you want if you like how it looks go for it but be prepared for others to hate it

mates a commonwhore fan (hes owned like12) i love imports and four bangers we pull the piss constantly but respect each others choices

is it only blue neons that are legal over there or anything? they attract all the wrong attention here (melbourne) if you use em on the street though, from vandals and from cops.

always wanted to install yellow LED's under the car, in two halves divided down the middle of the car... lots of em, and wire em up to the indicators so when you turn half your car lights up :)

LoLz....most young people like neons. Generally, the older citizens of this nation do not appreciate them as much. Pehaps the "subcultural" group he is trying to gain the attention of are the youth of today, and not that of the older, more mature generation? :)

crap

i have neons in my footwells and i like the look of them on some cars

Good on Mirks for making his car how he wants its and not bowing to pressure to conform. "RICE is in the eye of the beholder"

    • RB20/25 covers don’t have threaded fasteners stock like RB26 covers. They are blind rivets so I will need to drill out and tap threads. I bought some M4x6mm button heads and will report back once done if I chose correctly length wise.    have also got some loctite 
    • Interesting. I've not dived into the cleanliness of the factory CAS. I'm curious if the variations are less of an issue if the OEM sensor were brand new. Optical sensors if they're starting to get dirt and crap into them as they're getting older would definitely cause issues as they age.   It's an interesting point to keep in the back of mind for me though
    • Hmm. Tough one. Without knowing where the conductivity value is supposed to sit, it's hard to know whether a standard DMM set to an available ohms setting would be able to measure anything. Ohms being the inverse of what we're talkng about and probably good enough for the girls I go out with. But if you want to go all hoity toity with a 4 wire rig - go ahead. It can only be more accurate - just in case more accuracy or repeatability turns out to be required. If you're going to the effort, just go chuck the ohm-mage probes into the car's reservoir and see if you can measure anything at all?
    • So, barely torque them, but add a drop of Loctite just to be sure?...
    • Was good fun with some old a school sau
