Ricer A term i heard back when when i was 10 to me then it was any Honda really with stickers big chrome rims fart can exhaust and some nasty color skim inside the car “white dash red vents”. But i have realized something not all people are mechanical adapt they do the best they can and as long as it look good to them and makes them happy so be it. I respect a ricer for the fact that he is trying to change his car with the best of his ability, better then doing nutting and bitching at people how there car sucks or trend. Yes a lot of times it may look stupid or have no point but its a car allowing people to voice there to expression. isn’t that why we all have cars?

oh and Solarian why you bashing people man? Vw have a style of there own i would know worked on them for many years, style does not need a reason just need to look good to people its all.

Hahahahaha, wrong thread man. But I’ll tell you anyway… because I WANT TO. And it doesn’t look good, it looks awful. I’ve seen wrecks on the 401 that look better.

As for rice, I think too many of you see it as a bad thing. Rice is cool too, in moderation, you can’t have fun without it. You may think I’m wrong, but show me your car and I’ll point out atleast one ricey thing about it. There’s two on my car right now, and when I’m done there’ll be 4 or 5. I think small rice is cool, but not gay shit like 4" muffler on stock exhaust, etc…

Hahaha, it’s true though! Most people just don’t see the rice on their own cars. On the Solara I changed my gauge cluster backlight to red (1), and I have aluminum valve stem caps (2)  
On the S13 I had aluminum Nismo door sills.  
I know a shitload of you have stuff like that, hell there was a thread about “drift charms”. If that shit ain’t rice, I dunno WHAT is lol.

Nah , thats not rice… just wack.

but seriously , rice

1. ricer 2141 up, 208 down

(Ricer: from the latin word Ricarius meaning to suck at everything you attempt)

A person who makes unecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term “rice”) to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are (but not limited to):

- Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder
- Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747
- Lots of after-market company stickers they don’t have parts from, but must be cool
- Expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself
- Bodykit to make the car appear lower, usually accented with chicken wire
- Clear tail lights and corner signals
- A “performace intake”- a tube that feeds cold air to their engine usually located in areas of excessive heat (behind or on top of the engine)
- Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols Mitsubishi Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that some Supras, Skylines, WRX’s and other higher performance imports are designed to go fast, and are therfore not always considered rice. It really depends on the severity of the case.

The “ricer” attempts to make their car “performance” by adding the modifications listed above. These ricers are not confined to any one ethnic group or color, however different ethnic groups are known for certain styles.

Honda Civics with big spoilers and 4" exhaust tips are considered to be ricers.

. Ricer 743 up, 202 down

Any oriental import car that has been modified for no real performance gain.

Ricer: An oriental car with no engine mods, a body kit, and possibly stickers. Made to look fast.  
Not a ricer: An oriental car with a fully built engine, drive train, and suspension reguardless of appearance

thats from urban dictionary :S

Defrauding members of this community, not paying Sasha for crashing into his trailer, and being in general a BELOW average player. Fuck off and go back to being banned.

[QUOTE=Solarian;250717]…QUOTE]

never.

give me one other name other than the one mentioned please.

we’ve never met but you have the biggest mouth when it comes to my name.

On top of that ,  
everyone that ive ever done business with has no money/selling/buyer issue with me. If anything I may just be a dick ,or they may just like me.

But i know like 75% of this board personally.  
do you?  
I talk to them all personally,  
do you?  
I give them below average pricing after they low ball my original offer.  
but I dont find the need to go onto the forum as bash them publically after they low balled me twenty bucks.  
cause that how life is.

I’ve met like at least 17 people from son this week alone. and guess what , they all know my name.  
They all gave me +1  
so get off me
