what is considered ricer?

[JasonC]

You put more than 325ishwhp in a FWD car you completely lose handling. Fwd cars will alsob never be anywhere close to a 50/50 ratio... There not made for road racing. There not made for drag racing. There made because its cheaper to do and most drivers on the road can't handle a a rwd car in the winter lol.. there's a reason a Honda isn't called the ultimate driving machine

Really with the FWD? In that case, someone better bring Shelby back from the dead and tell him he was doing it wrong in the 80's when he was putting out 300-400hp in little Omnis, Chargers, Daytonas, Lancers, and Shadows. Cause God knows he didn't know what he was doing nor does anyone else who has ever decided to wonder away from the thought that a FWD is only a point A to point B car... And yes i know the street versions of these cars was 175hp max.

LOL FWD.

FWD is like a legless zombie, they crawl around oozing shit and generally being a lifeless drain on society.

The world will end in a FWD car.

Front wheels should never be a driving force in a car unless it is a 4x4 or AWD.

Engines should always be placed front to back in cars, not sideways.

What about transverse mounted rear engines?

Chris Rado is a ricer

[Mylch]

oh.. so that's what I am doing wrong.

As long as they drive the rear wheels, it's alright....kinda.

Rice is a term only to be used regarding Asian vehicles. Eurotrash is the equivalent term for European vehicles and ghetto is the term for downgraded American cars. However, any car can be riced out by adding Asian parts to it.

So this is rice because it has "asian" parts?

"Riced out", not rice, itself.

[UNCL3AN1]

Rado is a ricer, but he's made one hell of a living out of it. I wish I were as ricer as he is, then I'd be racing cars and building cars all the time instead of sitting in my office, checking these dorky forums. :0)

Adding asian parts does not automatically constitute rice, I said that it is the only way rice can be applied to non Asian cars. But since you gave a specific example, yes, that M3 appears to be riced out assuming those are Asian produced modifications.

I am going to assume the both of you know that the Ericsson kit (including engine mods) is made by Power House Amuse, responsible for the S2000 GT1 and the Amuse Carbon R r34?

And an e30 wearing Japanese made BBS rims would also be "rice/riced up"?

No its the blue exhaust and that odd trunk lid.

Poor, irrelevant and irreverent assumption. And my BBS rims were made in West Germany.
