Dumbass Ricers

[92 mtechnic cabrio]

all the damn ricers around here have super fucking fast cars

not even my mommy's SLK350 can keep up

but I can compare many of your guys's stories to the pile of shit falling apart cars owned by people of spanish descent ;)

there is a huge import/ricer scene in my city. theres this one kid whos always talking this loud smack " i gots a vtec swap" "i aint racing that guy its a waste of my time" etc. etc. so me and my lowly eta roll up on him in his eg hatch, slammed on cut springs, fart cannon, some stupid hole drill out kit thing for his rear bumper("gotta save that weight yo"), and *put your ricer mod here because hes got it*. he gives me the nod and starts to rev his engine. so i play along, and beat his ass..... in an ETA!!! next light he dosent even look my way as i laugh my balls off at his dumb ass car. he is now rumored to be "coming back" with a k20 swap. cant wait to see that mess.
same kid backed down after talking smack "ill race anyone here for cash." kid with a mr2(nicely modded, supra rims, no kit) starts wipping out hundreds. ive never seen anyone turtle like he did.

and anyone of brazillian heritage has it in their blood to rice out whatever they are driving. ive seen everything from the usual civic with all the autozone stick ons to 1992 escort wagons with 18's and underbody neons (green on the sides, blue in front and yellow in back)

My shop shares a parking lot with "Dunks Performance". These guys build 800 RWHP Dodge diesel pickups...in a grand redneck style. 4 or 5 of them will get all high on Coors Light and go do donuts in our parking lot. Let me tell you, the sight of a 7,000 pound 4 door pickup on 49" tires, all 4 corners belching huge clouds of smoke is just amazing. The truly amazing part is that they go up to Woodburn dragstrip and click off 12 second runs in these same damn trucks, MANUALLY shifting, losing traction all that way!

My little car is more like a little POS yapping dog than a racecar. Lots of goFast noises, but no damn motor to back it up. Oddly enough, I do not race these guys, ever.

eh ive grown up with a friend who has 2 mustangs and 3 dirt bikes, and a quad.

he is restoring a matchin numbers 64 mustang with a PERFECT, i mean PERFECT body and he has power hard top, is doing a 5 speed conversion, disc brake and it looks beautiful, ill post up pics when i can, ive been helping him grind down the paint and stuff here and there.

ive been a ricer most of my life, in love with the mr2's, miatas, and rx7s...

and then recently i got into bmws, and for a four door thats as old as me... it flies like a bat out of hell!

there is always the "ricer" in any type of car market...

for isntance when idiots put yenko stripes on every car they own, or when they put cobra badging on a stock mustang, and then body kit the said mustang and badge it a gt-r and paint it orange.

or we get the pontiac sunfires with double decker spoilers, 4 doors, and the chrome spinning hubcaps with blue lip painted and painted drum brakes.

same goes for when i see an rsx with red honda emblems and then integra type r badges all over it, or s15 silvia style emblems covering an 89 240sx...

there will always be an idiot for every type of car.

there is a guy that wants to put a fucking evo wing on a yellow 2007 nissan spec v!

it just all depends on when and if you run into them, and have the joy of laughing at them.

Oh I agree completely. ANY car can be rice. Look at all the riced out Neons. Neons are and American car, remember? Same with Saturns as I posted in my original post.

And you aren't necessarily a ricer if you drive a Japanese car. It all depends on how you act and what you do to the car.

I used to live in the Akron/Canton area of Ohio. That is the land of John Sheppard and Dave Buscher. Honestly, I think I was the one with the slowest car around.

Completely agree. Fact is there are a handful of riced out e30 on this forum, mine included...haha.

Socal is the worst. In ontario some ass pulls up in a lime green, white gauge having, riced out, fartcan, civic and starts revving. Having the radio up I kinda laugh and watch as he pulls away on the green thinking he beat me. Next light is a red and this time as I pull up I decide to rip him a new one. On the green I was out, getting almost a length before hitting second. By third I was fiddling with my ipod as he grew smaller and smaller in the rearview mirror. I will say that for every dumb ass slow ricer, that there's a dumb ass fast ricer. I have seen some shit...

[bergie_318is]

haha good stories

i had the guy at my school about 2 years ago when we were in grade 12. the second car he got was a proton satria two door hatchback thingy which was front wheel drive
(when he got it i said why would you do that? protons are shit, and he always said that it was a mitsubishi motor), first being a ford TX3, anyway, what he did to it was put a evo front bar on it, a huge cannon and extractors, and a CAI. given, his car did sound quite nice and it did have a little bit of up and go because it was light, but when he came to school he always insisted that he "drifted" around the corner. i constantly told him "your not drifting, your sliding!!! drifting is linking powerslides together, and your not doing that!!!"

he always bragged that he was drifting here, drifting there, its not surpirse he lost his licence for speeding, and dangerous driving haha.

Yeah my buddy Ricer Rob, he had (still owns but doesnt run) eg hatch like 1.6l with a t3/t4 turbo and whatnot. He was putting down about 250 wheel. This car ripped. Extremely scary with stock brakes and drums in the back. That thing had more brake fade than owen wilson.
If anybody on this forum almost would pull up to him they'ed get walked by ricer roberto.

He now drives a sr20black top 240, with equal length turbo mani and a welded diff. That cars pretty damn fast too.

Its so easy to make power from a Honda its stupid. As long as you start out with a DOHC variety motor, its all good from there. Hondata is the way to go.

b16 + t3/t4 = instant 12's in a crx.

do some tuning and you got 11s.

my bosses dad wants me to help him build up an old honda just as a beat around car that can fuck with people lol.

but the thing is... when you go to take a corner in somethin like that, and you cheaped out on an lsd... go to turn the wheel and your gonna smash into something.

that happened to my friend ramsey, totalled like 2 cars cause of his torque steer.

From the somewhat opposite end of the spectrum...

Yesterday I was out doing this and that during the day, and at one point, this GOD AWFUL red 2nd-gen Integra pulled up next to me at a light. Horrible front body kit, clear lights all around, one of those huge double-decker swooping around plastic wings, and a shit-ton of horrible vinyl graphics. He rolled down his window, turned his thumping stereo down, leaned out the window, and said "Damn man, that's a fucking SICK car.", gave me that kind of wink/head bob gesture of approval, and drove off.
