Our group is a little different than most. Of course there’s riced out 240’s out there, but how many riced out 240’s are in our group? > > Now take any other group, Hondas, Toyotas, Mitsubishi/DSM. If any of you scout their forums, there’s more ricers that stick out than the number of ricers we have. > > I’ve seen and am friends with a few people with riced out cars. But honestly, them and their ricer friends, I did notice a similar trend with them. Yes, they think their cars are hot shit, and yes they think their car was a de-tuned race car from the factory. But what I did notice was that deep down, they do know that they are ricers, they’re just sometimes unable or feel shamed to admit it. I have a friend with a riced to the max Civic. And don’t put me on this, its not my choice he has the most popular ricer car in the world, I’m just telling you what he says. He’s got a ton of shit done to his car. AEM fuel rail, NGK this, AEM cold air intake that, 2.5" exhaust, VTEC head swap, whatever, I can’t remember them all. > > Him knowing my car, he still admits that I might have it. I highly doubt it, since its a feather-weight bubble hatch, and I’m not one to brag about my car, but with only a 3" torque-losing catback and a short-ram intake, thats not bad. He can admit that with the amount of money he’s dumped into his car, my near-stock car might still have a chance. Deep down they know that money could’ve been spent better elsewhere… > > PS. What’ve you got against my auto seatbelts? I haven’t gotten anything but compliments from them. The only reason why there isint alot of riced out 240’s would be that the kids who “rice-ify” them can’t afford to fix the rust on their S13’s or have the know how skills to get it running after they buy it for 200$. And because of this, there are very few if not no items out there that support rice for S-chassis, compared to say… honda. Basically… from a teen’s point of view. A 240sx is for people who like to kick it sideways, with a kouki front bumper and an orgin body kit with some baller ass wheels and a maad drop (look at most of the cars on Zilvia). Not much room for error when it comes to drift-style, and not much room for rice burners either. A banged up hatch with zipties is +1 in the driftin world.
