The GT-R is known as "Godzilla". It requires a pretty fancy piece of Stuttgart kit to catch one. Its really not a ricer- the serious ones are too much car for the the ricer kiddies. stuart Last edited by stuartj; 03-02-2004 at 03:00 PM.. |

GTR Power WTF do you know about panache?
You drive a ricer with stickers all over it, you know tacky though. Your Nissan would go unnoticed next to my Ferrari anywhere! heres a story you can relate to: I got up in the morning and put on my pants. I didn't feel like pulling them all the way up so I left them hanging below my ass. So I put on my cap, and out I went. I fell down the stairs because I tripped on my pants. That's okay I only hit my head and God knows I've done that many times before. Anyway I got into my phat ride and hooked up my yellow padded seat belt. I had to re-new the layer of duct tape that kept the windshield from leaking because of my failed attempt to make it look like lexan. Other than that my car sounded so cool with the 5" tip I just got at Pep Boys. Pep Boys is wack, they have a cool section now. I hope I get the store credit card so I can buy a set of blue washer lights! At a red light I revved at some due in a Ferrari. The guy was cool because he started to laugh. I think it's cool that he can laugh at himself like that. No way he was laughing at me because in total I have like 150 HP because I bought new spark plugs and a exhaust tip. I have stickers of things that I'd like to buy for my car, so people better watch out. The Ferrari guy didn't want to race me, but I showed him anyway and floored it. I manually shifted my automatic transmission when the red light from the monster tach lit my whole face. I got him by 15 car lenghts. Count to think of it, I think he turned to another street but the distance he was from me still counts right? So here I am crusing along the street in first gear, in case I need to race again. My engine sounded so sweet revving at around 5k and my car going 15 MPH. All the ladies looked at me. I was so happy, if I wouldn't have painted my rear drums yellow I would have stopped to talk to them. I wanted my yellow paint on my drums to stay clean you know. Finally I creep up to a stupid American car at a red light. This guy was a joke. He had like these huge ass tires in the rear and it looked like he didn't even cut his springs, so I thought I had an advantage over him. His old car with "Rice Killer" on the rear window had a huge chrome hood ornament in the middle of the hood. It had 3 little holes on it and the whole thing moved left to right. I thought "dang, I wonder if Pep boys has something like that for me to bolt onto the hood too"? Heck I'd put it on the roof. His car had side exhaust that blew what smelt like un-burnt gas into my passenger window. I would have rolled up the window but it's hard to pretend you have electric windows with the passenger window. I can do it very good with my window. People can't even tell that I don't have electric windows. The open window let all the noises this car made. It sounded like real ****. The car was shaking left and right while the engine sounded like it was going to stall at any moment! I was sure I'd win if we'd race. So I revved and revved until my "V-tech" light came on (I wired the V-tech light to turn on instead of "Check Engine" (much cooler that way). The guy turned off his engine and got out of his car and ask me if I heard a loud bee? I was WTF bro? You smoking **** dude? I asked him if he wanted to race. The guy agreed and got back into his ugly car and started up the engine. When the light finally turned green, I got tunnel vision and floored it. All I saw was my monster tach and the road ahead of me. When I got a couple of miles away from where the race started, I pulled back and looked behind me to see how far back the car was? To my demise the guy was at a general store a little further UP the street. He had enough time to beat me in the race and get a pack of smokes before I could even catch up? I investigated his car once I arrived to the store a couple of minutes later. I was looking for two big bottles of NOS. The guy told me his car was blown. I pretended to understand because I've never heard that before on Fast and the Furious. Well that was bad luck. Luckily I made him understand that my car has better HP per liter. Again he started to laugh at himself. I’m starting to like the V8 owners since they seem so open minded and capable of laughing about themselves. I finally made it school and parked with my buddies. They have cool cars with ground effects and fake hood scoops. I told them about my drive to school that morning, which enticed them to watch Fast and the Furious again to see if they mention the term “blown”. We had a great day at school. I had my car towed back home because I forgot to turn off my powerful stereo system after lunch. I couldn’t just boost my car because I took off the alternator thing that just sucked up power from my engine. I went to bed and dreamed about how cool the next day would be.

jryerson-
You make me laugh. You are right. I am a riceboy. So are my friends. You may have heard some of them before, if you weren't stuck in Ferrari 328GTS land. One of them won the LeMans GTS category. Came in 2nd at Sebring. Not built by Ferrari- built by ProDrive. Is preparing for Sebring this year again, this time for the overall for both Sebring and LeMans. Couldn't do it in a Ferrari though. Not quick enough. Audi'll have to do. Or maybe I should talk about a family relative... he owns a lot of Ferraris. More than most "collectors." In fact, the most. I've seen part the collection- including the Steve McQueen Daytona NART iirc. He also has other marques too, but in Ferrari 328GTS land those don't count either. jfyerson, racing is what continues the Ferrari brand- selling cars is to fund the racing- not selling cars that actually race. Nothing more. You own, what amounts to, a partial payment on the Dark Ages of Ferrari F1 racing. But you wouldn't know that nor do you care. You sure do know a lot about riceboy culture though. Maybe that's what you're striving to be... Maybe it's some sort of pathetic attempt to show superiority. Maybe it's because you live in a really shallow town where your 328GTS gets laughed at whenever you go out. Real Ferrari drivers drive something more classy than a low rent 328GTS or a Mondial. edit- I have no problems with mucking up the pH levels in this pool if jryerson wants to continue. I came here peacefully, but I will defend myself if necessary. Last edited by GTRPower; 03-02-2004 at 03:08 PM.. |

jryerson, your hillarious man. I really hope your not serious, cause if you are than appearantly someone has no engineering blood in them and seems to only be concerned with image, rather than engineering marvels.
The GTR does so well on the "ring" because, well, it's just that, a GT car. As stated before, an ultra stable high speed cruiser. A comparible vehicle would be a modded 928S4 because the weight and power would be close and the handling feel as well. Of course none of these vehicles i can afford, so i'll stick to my ever so entertainingly light 911sc.

Nick, your link's all sorts of messed up. I got to the site, but the link's spelling etc. is faulty. 2 "http"s and a misplaced colon.
Nice car, by the way. Jryerson, is your jeep "rice" as well?

Jgordon-
Thanks... In the end it's just a car, just like all the other passenger cars in the world. I just happen to like it. I corrected the link. |

Yeah maybe your right, I should sell the Ferrari and buy 3 Nissan Skylines with the money, I'd probably have enough left over for a bunch of stickers for them also with the money I'll save in maintenance costs. |

I may be wrong, but you sound like some high school kid without a car or driving mom's mini van jerking off to his 328 and 930 posters.

A nice 328GTS can be had for mid $30K. You're price for a $50K+ 328 is laughable. I don't know a single soul who would buy a 328 for that sort of cash. I don't need to believe you. Those prices do not include DOT and EPA certification. Those prices also do not reflect real world pricing on good cars- just on cars. 328s can be had for far less than $30K too... how low do you want to go? Keep digging yourself deeper and continue showing us exactly how little you really know. Last edited by GTRPower; 03-02-2004 at 04:02 PM.. |

Its a damn shame to see THIS forum fall like it has. I frequent a number of forums and thought I could come HERE to escape all the "stoopid l33t" ***** you see on other forums.
Mods, for the love of God and all that is holy (not to mention this forum), can we get this to OT so we can go back to our regular scheduled program of "Air Cooled Madness"? Thanks, TT p.s. for what it is worth, i love ALL cars and the Skyline kicks a$$. It is a damn shame that some people on here think that P-cars (and early ones at that) are the absolute end-all be-all when it comes to 4 wheels transportation. YES, we all love our Porsches, but c'mon, isn't the world big enough for everybody?

Yawn.................
Reminds me of the guy who took a chrysler mini-van complete with fake wood paneling and built up the turbocharged 2.2 liter engine until it ran 11s in the quarter. based on this thread that mini-van is either bad ass or rice. Or the guy who built up his volvo turbo station wagon to run low 12s. Who cares? if you drive a skyline, good for you. If you don't like them, good for you too. How long is it going to take for someone to post that picture of the special olympics that refers to arguing on the internet?
