Are you sure it's not a Datsun? ;0

[anjroo11688]

that reminded me of a weezer song. (elscorcho)

[Kanism]

those are some ugly ass tires...get some nice rims for it :D

[Brycelink]

well, before i bought it, the guy had nice rims for it, but after i paid for it and brought it home they where gone! oh well. But, my back windsheild got broken! I slammed dunked for the first time and when i landed i threw the ball and wam! spiderwebbed.

[Kanism]

so, it's winding up costing you more than 500 bucks...

[xboxfever.com]

ah, bling bling rims... any ricer boy's excuse for not having reached puberty yet...

[Brycelink]

u know, i trashed a guys car for calling mine a rice burner. but being as i don't even know you no need to start making threats.....he he he....:D im just playing, no need to take your jealousy as an insult.

[xboxfever.com]

if you drive a Jap car souped up with a coke can and a bunch of stickers, then you are a ricer. No need to deny yourself who you are. Just face the fact, your life will be happier.

As for trashing my car, you'd have to catch up with it first :D

true any car can become a ricemobile regardless of it's origin but lets not lie to ourselves, the majority of ricers are DEFINETLY Japanese cars. What is the first car that comes to your mind when you hear the term "ricer?" For me it's the Honda Civic, next it's the Acura Integra, then the Eclipse, then the CRX, then the Del Sol. The only riced out domestics I ever see commonly are neons, cavaliers and occasionally a V6 mustang.

I've seen a few v-8 fbodies riced up as well, any car can be rice. The japanese guys just are better at it ;)

If I never see a car with transparent plastic back lights, I won't be upset ;)

[Kanism]

the saddest part of "ricers"???? the majority of the owners aren't even the stereotyped "Asian males"...blech...Oriental dammit..."Asian" is too damn broad a term....FUCKERS!!!!...but, I digress...where was I?!?!?

oh yeah...if done properly, these modified cars can be great eye candy...but, what xbox is trying to say (I think) is that too many pubeless kids are putting stickers and chicken wire on their shitty '84 Civics and claiming that it's the shit...as beaterz.com says, funny stickers and ugly paint DOES NOT add any horsepower to your damn car.

that first datsun was pretty cool, but someone around my location is selling a red,2000, ferrari 360 modena for 28,000 because he hates it and doesnt want much for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

someone lend me $28,000 plus insurance fees!!!

[xboxfever.com]

insurance fees are *another* 28K :D

if u search the web there are a few Datsun groups that restore these cars. U can contact them and they could give u advice. also there are a lot of companies that sell EVERYTHING u need to restore that car.

you need new tires
new engine
