for example

"It has Brambo Disks" --> Brembo?

"5 Zeigen rims" -->Zigen?


THATS ONE INSANE PRICE...not worth it at all
:!:

[fast_typeR]

the owner should face the sad reality,

when you mod your car, you sell the car with the mods for free.

that's kinda dumb for the car owner to sell the car as is. Alot of people strip the car down and make it stock again before they sell it, and sell their aftermarket parts seperately. but obviously the car has too many custom and bondo work to it its hard to do so.

[MameXP]

I think its a joke. I've seen that alot lately on ebay. THere are lots of jokes auction going on.

[lumlum1013]

LOL
brambo brakes?
5 Zeigen rims?

replica? knock offs?

[konfusion666]

it's obviously a LEGO version with camera tricks employed to make it look like a real car... :D

[nx2k]

i can build that car with $20k and that includes the price of the car

[ProfessorChaos]

wow that is probably the ugliest riced civic i've ever seen...

let's see...buy that used pos civic or....buy a new BMW M5...hmmm hard decision....

[fast_typeR]

i can build that car with $20k and that includes the price of the car

that's a ridiculous claim

sure, 90K is way too much of an asking price but take a look at the custom work that is done to the car. most of the stuff done are molded work, custom bumpers, custom interiors, lambourgini doors, widebody kit. Mind you, the body kit costs upwards of 2000-3000, and labour to install it including painting is 5000 cad. With all the custom work and equipment, I wouldn't be surprised that it cost him twice the amount of the cost of his car (about $30-40k) to get everything installed for the cosmetics and interior work.

The engine is an imported swap with JDM Civic SiR, and to produce 600 hp from that engine he probably installed a turbo kit on that. Engine's about $2000-3000 and even more for an imported one. THe turbo kit ranges anywhere from $2000 upwards depending on what stage turbo it is. I'm thinking he probably has a cold air induction system, upgraded fuel lines, grounding system, upgraded intakes and catback exhaust system, so his upgrades on engine should prob be somewhere around $10-20k. Then there's the brakes and suspension upgrades, by the looks of the drop that looks like a full coilover kit system to me (and since its a show car no one uses springs), upgraded rotors and brakes.

So by just pure estimation, he has around at least $60k worth of stuff in his car (including his car).

[ch1zo]

yeah but then look at it haha
its looks like a big bag of rice!!
for $60,000 why didnt he just buy a new car, instead of wasting it on this piece of crap??
either way if anyone buys this car, they need to go see a doctor :cheesygri

[fast_typeR]

well, i know show cars in sports compact scene are competed against each other in their uniqueness, with different models being divided into different categories. So the custom work was necessary to get that uniqueness factor.

yea, 60k can definitely get you a good car, I believe the 350Z runs at around that price and for 60K you would have a Supra Twin Turbo (when it still existed) with cash left over.

I do suspect there are some equipment that are sponsored, such as the audio, tires, maybe rims etc. But the engine work and probably body work is paid probably by his own money.

[fast_typeR]

to all fairness to the owner,
besides all the rice he does have some beef in the engine bay. that's a B14A swap, with turbo kit and with other engine goodies. he didn't post any pics of the engine bay but if what he says its true under the hood, this car can beat alot of higher end sports coupe or sedan like the 350Z, RX8, IS350, G35 etc. But only those cars in their stock form

[rabbitman]

Don't worry someone will buy it. We see those things all the time on TSR. I'm sticking with my rabbits, just so there'll be something other than riced out civics at the dragstrip.

What a goof. Why didn't he just buy a BMW sports car or an Infiniti G35 with the money and not make something that looks stupid?

[hyperion]

I wouldn't pay $10000 for that POS.

What? what? what?

Dude stop talking slacks.... The bodykits as such are no where near $2000-$3000, and $5000 for paint and install? PLEASE. Look at the car closely, the paint is cheap( mind you white paint and black paint are the cheapest).

The guy said the car is for show, and he make the car that looks totally ********. The i see plenty of those kind of body kit on the road (even Neon and Cavy have such back end look) So its not unique. The lambo door on this body design is even more ********.

Bodykit made of fireglass---- $500
Paint and install - $2000 (thats a whole car and interior lol )


Here is an example of a custom body kit that actually looks good and unique:

Dude, his body kit is mostly custom. Not just one that you buy off e-bay. There is no way he only paid even close to only $2500 for that unless he made his bodykit himself and took it to Maaco.

EWW he butchered a beautiful RSX >:( It looks unique for sure... but not good. It looks like he's trying to get it to look like a freakin Ford Focus or something. And why the hell change the NAME of the car... especially in an ugly font and not even raised letters. F'in nasty car. He ruined my favourite car. You lost all credibility with saying you like the butchered RSX.

Hi, sure i like it so what? Have you seen concept TypeR? Well the design comes very similar to that. And i like it, it makes it look out of the box not rice not civic-alike like stock design.

Ugly and expensive. I'd laugh if some idiot actually bought it though :lol:

Sorry I just hate wide-body kits. Makes it look like shyte. I've seen other nice kits for a RSX. Also the name on the back looks like a cheap decal. I'm sure your Mugen kit will be nicer than this.

LOL

first of all, there's no such thing as fireglass, more like fibre glass.

Second thing, there's NOTHING custom about the RSX you have posted here. That's the OEM Acura RSX A-SPEC Concept BODY KIT straight from Acura!! LOL just look at those rims, they have the Acura badge on it which proves what I said. The rims used with the Civic are real JDM Zigen rims and cost a hell lot more (and weight a hell lot less) than OEM rims.

Thirdly, the kits on both RSXs are snap on kit, which is evident by the gaps between the widebody kit in your friend's RSX and the RSX you posted on photo. Your friend's RSX is a Prodrive CR-1 body kit that is readily avaliable to buy on the web for around $1200 USD. The Civic in those pictures is a completely customized and molded body kit onto the exterior, there's no gap with the exception of the customized bumpers and side skirts. Even the spoiler is molded on. Here's a pic of a seamless molded kit

http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/12/web/624000-624999/624485_3_full.jpg

Be my guess and find any place the molds, installs and paints all these parts for $2000 including interior.... you know you might even be able to do it for roughly the same cost if you do it yourself with a heatgun blowing on the kit hoping it melts into the metal and use Macco to repaint the car :lol:

Fourthly, you try finding something some body kit similar to the ones in the pic. In all my time looking at aftermarket parts no a single kit has anything that look like that as a body kit for a Civic. I am by all means not a body kit expert but I have not been able to find the same style in aftermarket parts dealers across the country. The side skirts look like Spider Style to me, but they're still a bit different. But for the rear, try posting something here to confirm your claim. Good for you if you can actually find one like that. Same with the interior, try finding me a car that has an interior that looks like that. In other words, all custom. Custom = $$$

LOL what a joke, calling me dishing slack out when you clearly don't know what you're talking about.

BTW, I don't know how you can tell if the paint is cheap by looking at a JPEG file, unless you have some other sensing ability that is unknown to mankind. But there's no way you can tell unless you go and see it in person and feel the paint.

this is the front of the car btw
There's nothing I can find that resembles this front bumper either. The closest being the G Style front bumper but there's still quite a bit of difference between them.

[MameXP]

Hey fast _typeR (lol at your name and your avatar)

White and black is the cheapest paint, didnt you know? I guess you're too riced to care. The paint is not "custom" paint so no $5000 means you're stupid and get ripped.

About the kit of my friend, its designed right, flow with the car not ****** looks (doesnt matter if its custom, ****** looks matters). So if you want "custom", go to HomeDepot buy some fibre glass (hahahha it was a typo you jackass, pick something thats so little show your personality), and mold those **** on your hood, bumpers. Doesnt matter if it looks good, as long as its "custom" you can claim whatever the value of the car right? :rolleyes: . You have been riced too much son, most of the kids (ricers) i have talked to sounds exactly the same. They pull the same "custom, unique" argument. Sadly they devaluate their car so bad its not even funny.

The looks of that civic is nothing special, custom my ass it looks like ****. There is a custom body shop in 'sauga that usually rip off those ricers. The guys there even enjoy making ****. I was at the shop and i heard those guys trying to "design" a kid's car telling him this will make him enter Importfest and ****. Hhahaha Usually terms they use are "lambo orange paint", "lambo doors", "Angel eyes with hid", "custom interior"(mostly prefer painting those cheap plastic and give a shiny ricey look).



Lastly, enough of this rice conversation already, the thread is to show how stupid those ricers are by creating such auction.

ps... there are quite a few civic and cavy with the same back-end here in waterloo. The same "azte tailight", molded spoiler on the trunk and a FART can lol

[MameXP]

Also dont get into the engine argument, if you know half about engine modding with the mods he posted nowhere he can run 30lb of boost and 600WHP. For god's sake, its B16A you will have to bore the **** out of it.

you know man, your paragraphs would be easier to understand if you didn't fill out 20% of your post with expletives, lol and don't give me the son thing, by the way you posted that reply you sound like some 12 year old kid ranting back.

$5000 for a paint, install and molding a entire widebody kit is common. You truly underestimate the cost of molding and bondo work. For an entire car to be molded its $2000 upwards. Then there's the cost of repainting the whole car. You keep on saying how your friend is a car tuner (which I even doubt if you know him). Well just to let you know, my friend is one of the award winning tuners of VW cars and participate in SEMA and SC in Canada and he got a deal at $4000 to install, paint and mold his bodykit. That $5000 figure is already a pretty shallow estimate.

also nice of you to accuse me of being a kid ricer, lol. i have a member in my car club that is a 50 year old modifying an NSX, and I have seen many in their 40s modifying Acura TLs. But I'm sure they will be flattered when you call them kid ricers as well :). If I remembered correctly you were commenting on how your friend's tuned RSX looks good and you're accusing me of being a fan of ricing. And it's also pretty funny how you fictionalize the "uniqueness, custom" factor because that is what the sports compact scene is about, which further tells just how much you know about cars.

There's one point I agree with you that modifying devalues your car because its hard to sell the car modified and how mods are quickly devalued when the owner decides to sell the car. I commented on that in the 2nd post to this topic.

nice try man, but using that Waterloo trick doesn't work on me because I have been in waterloo for over 3 years and i havn't seen anything of that kind you mentioned. The clostest well modified car I have seen in that area is an atomic orange Acura Integra. There's a few Civics around there modified but NONE of them have the body kit of the Civic shown in the pics. There's also one RSX modified around there as well, a black one if I remembered correctly.

BTW, really fashinonable of you to make fun of my avatar. I guess it couldn't get any nerdier than yours, Windows...err MameXP.

[fast_typeR]

Also dont get into the engine argument, if you know half about engine modding with the mods he posted nowhere he can run 30lb of boost and 600WHP. For god's sake, its B16A you will have to bore the **** out of it.

did I ever say that I believe the car produces 600hp??? I said in order to get it you have to put a turbo system in, and I said that because I am talking about the cost.

600whp might be a little high but anywhere from 450-500 is believable. You can get about 500hp from a K20A engine with 30psi boost. Add in a good CAI, upgraded intake and exhaust, better grounding system you can add anywhere from 20-30 hp on top of that. This is not surprising because with some chip reprogramming, intake change, a non turbo charge B16A engine can produce close to 200WHP
http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1201433

and if you use very high octane gas then the rating will go up even higher. Plus, he might have nitruous, which furthur ups the hp rating.

Lastly, enough of this rice conversation already, the thread is to show how stupid those ricers are by creating such auction.


It was until you said that ur friend's rice is better than this guys. The Prodrive kit on the rice-o-meter is "Newbie Rice". At least the civic has "L33T Rice". I mean, if you're going to rice, rice with style. Don't just buy some cheap-skate body kit and slap it on.

[nx2k]

fast typeR, let me rephrase my statement
i can build a better looking car for $20k
and no that body kit doesn't cost $5k, it looks more like $500 made out of some fibreglass and some maaco.
a C-West kit painted would cost about $3k, if someone is paying $5k to have their car look like that, then they are in need of a serious reality check.
As well, i've read in multiple posts of yours praising CAI's, if u think a CAI is god's gift to cars, you truly are a ricer.
As well if you think chipped ECU's are all the craze, then u are an idiot. Those are the ricers who are spending $300 on these chipped ECUs when the chip itself costs $10 to do. It'd be much more beneficial if they were to run a piggyback AFC, yo'd be spending money on something that will help instead of hurt. So what if you can rev to 8k rpm, it doesn't help if your powerband doesn't go to 8k, why would you rev higher if your power is falling off.
as well there are so many typo's in his post, i've personally never heard of GE pistons, unless general electric came out with some new innovation. JE i've heard of but not GE.

i'd really like to see a dyno chart of that thing claiming 600whp at 30psi.
Cuz honestly, i'd like to know how many axles he has snapped with that type of power

i have nothing personal against you but you really do sound like you've been watching a little too much of fast and the furious

:rolleyes:

you can believe whatever you want.
just don't go car tuners or enthuasists alike and call their cars cheap fibre glass and made of macco.

I have not made any mention of me liking CAIs, I just said they can be used to add power. Neither did I mention about any ECU craze. To tell you the truth, Hondas are pretty well tuned at the start, so its hard to tune the engine anymore than it already is. To get power, nothing replaces displacement or using forced induction.

And no, I am not a fast and furious fan, although I am a car enthausist with some COMMON sense about car parts. If you're calling me a fast and furious ricer, then you're pretty much calling the rest of car enthausist population that as well.

In SC, we all respect each other's ride and if calling me a 'ricer' is your best comeback and you'll need to do better than that

[wong8egg]

It doesn't matter how many hps it has, but who would spend $90,000US on a riced Civic than a brand new Porsche 911 S. :lol:

I woudln't care if the inside was coated in Mink and Fox fur and the engine was plated in gold. I wouldn't pay anything for that piece of crap. Infact, I wouldn't even drive it if I was given it for free. It looks rediculous.

[fast_typeR]

couldn't agree more

[JohnB]

For $90,000 USD buy a Porsche, M3, M5, Sti, Jaguar coupe with the s/c, something nice. Maybe a Mercedes coupe, Audi A8, the new Corvette, etc, etc...

But a little Honda Civic loaded with all the junky stuff the guy could find ? No thanks.

[ainsane]

Hah... just noticed this: with typo's on moded parts I don't care about spelling here... just ironic that's all :)


Edit: If you're looking for a rediculous car, but can't afford $90,000...

FYI: Golden Eagle...they make quite a bit of engine components actually...proven stuff too. You can find them here http://www.goldeneaglemfg.com/building.html

600whp is fesible....hes running 30lbs and a shot of NOS...tuning nightmare, but regardless it can be done. I can only guess what the dyno chart looks like, probably a massive spike lol ...its pretty much a trailer queen.

+1 for an authentic polyurathane C-West, i would say it's the cleanest kit available along with Mugen/Spoon. I also doubt he paid for all that himself...for that calibre of modding, people usually have sponsorships.

[MameXP]

fast_typeR, you dont understand my name MameXP stand for the simulation arcade gaming. Search Owns you, son ( wait ... dog is ok? ) LOL

Its funny how you claim earlier that civic would kill other top end cars due to 600hp now you contradict yourself saying you never said you believe the 600hp claim. Thats hilarious, .....son

Moreover, you claim your car club has some old guy modding NSX so that would give you the credit of not being ricers? Tuning import scence huh? Let me guess... "you live a quarter mile of a time, nothing that matters ... not the mortage none of that bull **** as long as you're in 10s or less you're free ?" too. Your name should be fast-N-furious_typeR,.....son

FYI, tunning import scence is NOT about bs customed wacked out kit. Ppl like you has given all of us all bad names. I dont care if your friend win in show cars. I found most show cars are about audio and interior ricer bs. Again it gives you none of the credits whatsoever (lol). I'm personally tunning for Honda engine as hobby. I have a small group sharing experience in ECU tunning and all NA motors. I personally drive a STi and a RSX-s, so i dont care if you have the weirdest ugliest civic, at the end of the day you only have complements from HS kids.

Mind you i have been living in Waterloo probably longer than you've been on earth. So no i dont try anything. In those 3 yrs that you claim, you aint seen enough,... son. I grown up here and graduate from UW with SE degree. Dont you think i know this town better?

Oh btw all the "son" part was for fun I'm not black not street kids. In fact if you see me in person you will see how nerdy i am. I'm all around computers for all of my life.

The point i was making is that body kit is infact FUGLY. If someone pay $5000(which i highly doubt) then she/he needs a brain check maybe running too lean lol.... The paint looks cheap, (its white paint for the last time) The kit is made from fibreglass, not stunning CF bling bling. Molding can be done with few guys with no brain (thus they work as dogs). And there you go a "custom, one of a kind body" civic, claiming a cost that invisible/virtual to anyone ( i dont know if you understang invisible/virtual but in economy that means non-existing cost in marketplace)

Too much for ya bro, enjoy your...."fast" typeR lol

seriously, i've had enough of stupid car newbs like you who know nothing about cars (I'm not saying I know either) and crap in a post for the sake of arguing.

I said the car IF the car claims that it has the horsepower that it does it will BEAT alot of the top cars. Use your eyes to read, or if you don't get your eyes checked or maybe get your glasses changed.

Talk about flipflopping. First you were arguing badly about how there's no way about the body kit cost $5000 and now you're switching gears saying you meant its ugly. That shows nothing but how little backbone you have.

Who the hell gives if you live in Waterloo longer than anyone.
The thing is there's NO Civics with the same body kit as the Civic, and NO other cars with the same kit. And for someone who graduated with Systems Engineering as you claim, you sound nothing like it, justified by your unsophiscated posts and random explicit wording. And BTW, I'm a EE from Waterloo, so don't give me a crap about how you're so much better in SE and use that coy to make me sound like a "street kid" lol.

You know its really fashionable how you make fun of other people's avatar or login names. That proves you're so lame that you have to use other people's login names and avatars to come back at them.

You've proven yourself not only as a jackass but also a dumb one as well. Think before what you say, and by the time you actually get some sense into you then come back and say something constructive that is actually beneficial to other people. Making fun of people's login names and avatars?using expletives in a post? Keep on calling other names? What are you in, Kinegarden?

And I repeat you dumbass, I am not a fast and furious fan, and neither have I seen any of the movies. Someone being a car enthausist does not make them a 'ricer' or a 'fast and furious' person.

I agree with that engine swap and if it does at least put 300HP to the wheels it will beat many cars on the road today. Even if it has at least 200HP at the wheels, it can also beat lots of cars today. The Civic is light.

But I have a hard time he could be running 30 pounds of boost. I havent seen this in a long time.

[nx2k]

axles and transmissions dont' hold up to 600whp, atleast not on civics they don't
now they can be modified but the ebay ad seems more like a ricer listing what he saw in a magazine rather than it being legit

WOW! Cool down, you lost it bro. LOL you just gave me a good laugh. :D

The entire post above was nothing but bashing and calling names. So what makes you then?

I dont give a crap if i have this degree or not, my point was you said you've been here for 3 yrs that makes you think and claim that there is no civics or riced out cars that looks alike to the one in the auction. Gee man you need reading comprehensive class. I dont know how you got EE lol, no offend but its funny cause you cant figure out my point and all "the slang words" i used was purely for fun. ( yeah really where did i say "yo i got SE so i'm so much better that makes you a street kid " -hhahhhaa you got played)

Btw, you're right, i have quite lots of mistake in English but i dont type this to my boss. Ppl can read and understand so i wont spend extra time to make sure a single grammar/spelling. English is not my major and i generally dont really care. Got it?

You're showing your age now atleast.

[fast_typeR]

Hey fast _typeR (lol at your name and your avatar)

White and black is the cheapest paint, didnt you know? I guess you're too riced to care. The paint is not "custom" paint so no $5000 means you're stupid and get ripped.

About the kit of my friend, its designed right, flow with the car not ****** looks (doesnt matter if its custom, ****** looks matters). So if you want "custom", go to HomeDepot buy some fibre glass (hahahha it was a typo you jackass, pick something thats so little show your personality), and mold those **** on your hood, bumpers. Doesnt matter if it looks good, as long as its "custom" you can claim whatever the value of the car right? . You have been riced too much son, most of the kids (ricers) i have talked to sounds exactly the same. They pull the same "custom, unique" argument. Sadly they devaluate their car so bad its not even funny.

The looks of that civic is nothing special, custom my ass it looks like ****. There is a custom body shop in 'sauga that usually rip off those ricers. The guys there even enjoy making ****. I was at the shop and i heard those guys trying to "design" a kid's car telling him this will make him enter Importfest and ****. Hhahaha Usually terms they use are "lambo orange paint", "lambo doors", "Angel eyes with hid", "custom interior"(mostly prefer painting those cheap plastic and give a shiny ricey look).

:cheesygri

[ainsane]

Hey fast_typeR. I know how frustrating it is to get into arguments with people like MameXP on the internet. This guy is all over the place.

MameXP... this bottom line is this:

You initially said that all that bodywork, paint, and interior would only cost $2000. That is dead wrong. That might be a small deposit for the work. And white/black paint isn't the cheapest. All regular colours are generally the same. The colouring pigment added to the basecoat of a regular paintjob is basically nothing compared to the overall cost. The more involved paints like metallic and perl is where the extra costs start to add up. If you say that a red paint job will always cost more than a white/black job... you're out of your mind.

Paint jobs also vary HUGELY on the kind of quality that you want. You can go to Maaco and get a $800 paint job... but that will be complete garbage. They will paint right over your old paint. But what this guy most likely had done was get all the parts removed like headlights and doors, get everything sanded down to metal so the bondo work can be done properly, and have everything primed, painted, cleared, and probably wetsanded and cleared a couple more times if he wanted the best possible shine. Also cheaper jobs will just have the headlights, windows, trim, etc, just taped off. But if you look inside the seams, you will see the original colour. This isn't any good for a show car so they have to remove everything and get into every seam. I can't imagine how much he paid for all the custom exterior and interior work and the paint job.

The bottom line is that you are wrong about the cost of the custom work. It doesn't matter if you think the custom work looks like *****, it's still WORK and people get paid to do work. Especially if it's specialized work such as this. It doesn't matter if I take my xbox into a car shop and ask them to put a spoiler, bondo, and an amazing paint job. It will look like crap and look rediculous... but it still costs money to do. And if you think that by calling people "son" that it somehow makes you appear superior... it doesn't. It just sounds stupid, especially when you don't really seem to know what you're talking about. And adding 'son' at the end of every sentence just to piss off fast_typeR is just pathetic.

You should really stop this rediculous argument/discussion. Learn to cut your losses and admit when you're wrong. I have a feeling you will just continue though, and call me "son" a half-dozen times just to try and be funny.

Anyway... think I've said enough here.

[fast_typeR]

don't think anyone else could've said it any better :)

[Gordon]

O gawd talk about RICER! That car is trash for 90 grand I can bulid a R34 Skyline with a R32! Garbage I hate Hondas!

You should see my friends Skyline R32. Owns any car out there. Im telling you that for a fact. He only spent about 35 grand on it. It has 400HP 15 pounds of boost.

ainsane,
You're quite funny yourself so i wont call you "son" :D. Do you really care?

Right from the first post of F-T i already see hes a ricer so i start amusing talks when he tried to prove me wrong, thus the son part. THe guy got played tho lol....

Your bottom line is well said but you missed the point. White and black are in fact the cheapest paint unless its custom white or black. Other colour does have different rate of mixing such as "red" they wont know what kind of "red" you want thus cost will varies greatly ie. milano red vs red spice.

Like you said paint job cost can vary alot due to quality but like i said that painting was not worth $5000. I said $2000 is max, so you think i'm wrong eh? Well can you prove it? About the body work, it cost ya but why would you think thats the market price if you want to have it done? You can work your ass off all day for nothing because your outcome doesnt sell itself. So yes that body work is worth $500 to a car enthusiastic and $5000 to a ricer like F-T.

I guess you dont see my point, but i will admit i'm wrong when you can prove it. LOL

LOL. from the first post you can tell I'm a ricer. Like I said, you're basically calling everyone else a ricer then, since everyone else seems to know more car about you.

i think this guy deserves to be on RFD's unnoticed list (in true Stephen Colbert fashion). this guy has no sense of shame :D

I guess you dont see my point, but i will admit i'm wrong when you can prove it. LOL

I'm not going to get into a long argument here with you. I'm not in the mood to call up auto body shops and get quotes for high quality paint jobs. Even if I were stupid enough to do that, you would just say the quote is too high. And you said $2000 is max for the custom exterior work, paint, and interior work. Not just the paint. Go to any real car modification website like a hot-rod site, and you'll see how much paint jobs can go for.

As for the body work being worth $500 to a car "enthusiastic" and $5000 to a ricer. That's not what I'm arguing here. That's not the point at all. It's not what different people feel that it's worth... it's what it actually costs to get it done properly. If I had a civic, I would't pay $100 to get some of the things I've seen done... but that doesn't make it only worth $100. It still costs whatever the average body shop will charge for it. Read my xbox example again.

Anyway, MameXP. If you could tell me a bodyshop that will do a high-quality paint job sanded down to the metal, exterior work, and interior work for $2,000. PLEASE tell me. I want to get my '95 Mazda painted black. I will seriously go ASAP and get it done. Not joking here.

Velocity in Markam can repaint the whole car for under $2000. As long as its black like you said. My friend got repaint the whole Nighthawk Pearl Black for only $16xx. They did amazing job.

I dont know but if you're serious about repainting. Maybe you try to argue and make fun on me :lol:.

I dont know :rolleyes:. Maybe he doesnt like anyone to disagree with him. The cost estimated by him was way overpriced. Hes the only one appreciate that pos thus i called him a ricer lol.


Btw, Fast-TypeR are you sure i dont know much about cars as you do? 'Cause apparently you made few mistakes in other threads that i correct you. You seems to get offended with everything man. I was not even half serious. Chillax

[waitin4BOOST]

This debate is stupid.....reason being, it's like a north vs south civil war.

The bottom line is....there are 2 types of enthusiasts:

Mechanical vs Apperance
Funtionality vs Cosmetics
Ricer vs JDM

A car is like a ****ing cake...you dress it up how you like it and eat it...some like more filling...some like more icing.....at the end of the day if it doesn't give you the runs...bravo! whatever gets you off.

Also, prices will vary...labour/raw material. I think everyone will agree that 90k is freakin ridculous for that POS....but picking individual cost like paint is a weak arguement....when the turbo alone in that car costs more than the paint job.

yes, i made ONE little mistake of recalling the engine wrong, and now you're jumping on it like the end of the world. you don't see me gloating about your track record about how much you said wrong.

No I don't want to pay around $2000 just for paint. I want body work done, high quality paint (sanded down to the metal, and wet sanded a few times when the clear is on), and interior work done for $2,000. In that $2,000 I want a completely custom low-profile rear fender like a real Mazda one. And I they have to take off all the parts like the lights and everything to make sure all the seams are fully painted. Also I want the interior fabric replaced, the dash painted just black, and custom speaker mounts on the doors.

I'm not trying to make fun of you. You're price of $2,000 initially seems way too low for all this work. I would never guess it could be done for $2,000 like you initially said. If it can, I want it done for sure. I'm not willing to pay $2,000 just for paint though. I know a cheaper paint job that looks ok can be done for that. I want all the custom exterior and interior work done too like you said initially.

Oh and I didn't sell the mazda, no one wanted it for the price.

[MameXP]

Yeah i can see noone would buy it lol..... :lol:

So you want a full custom exterior and interior huh? LOL put $500 more man, its $2500 that i said initially. Ok? Call Velocity and tell them Jacky with the white Mugen DC5 sent you. You want to have fibre glass custom exterior and all that. They will give you a deal for $2500.

They normally dont like ricers but in this case they would cook you some rice if you said i sent you. :p

You love the term ricer eh! You throw it around too much though. I don't see how a regular black paint job, replaced fabric on the interior, and a small factory style spoiler is even the least bit ricey... but whatever. I think your friend's snap-on widebody kit for the RSX is way more riced up than what I described! I actually consider any cosmetic modifications without equal or greater performance modifications rice.

Anyway I don't plan on getting anything done, I just wanted to see what place you would say. I still know its not possible to get quality work done for that price. If you think its quality, that's great. I know its not possible to get what I consider quality for that kind of price.

By the way, I still think this $90,000 is WAY overpriced. I'm not arguing that at all. And it's ugly as hell. I wouldn't pay anything for that thing. I wouldn't drive any car that has had any major exterior modifications. Just like your friends RSX. I don't see how you can call everyone a ricer, and then praise your friends butchered RSX. He has a freakin sticker on the back with a different name! It's just as bad as the civic.

Anyway, it's been fun!


Edit: LMAO check out this review of Velocity Autobody I found on c7performance.com:

They were the ones who did the body work for my car after I removed the wingwest kit. I went back 3 times, and personally I will never ever go back again.

Body work they did:
Paint brand new front/rear bumpers
Paint both quarter panels
Fixed the holes on the seams near the wheel well on
Fixed the hole near the door near door sill

Problems occured:
1) When I first picked up my car, there are scratched on 2 places on my bumper, but they said BC auto were the ones to put on the bumpers they just paint. So I paid them extra to repaint my bumper, but when I got it back the big scratch is gone, but the small one on the right side of the bumper is still there implies they never repainted the whole bumper and I paid for it.

2) When I picked up my car after the bumper repaint, my RHS quarter panel has been scratched. What's funny is they painted my quarter panel.

3) The RHS quarter panel, the clearcoat near the window seal is also chipping, I don't know what kind of cheap **** they used but I'm not happy.

4) My front bumper was painted by them, and the edges of the front lip paint is chipping off .

5) The seam near the wheel well, they fixed the holes from WW kit and it looked like ASS. The paint is all wrinkly.

Overall I'm not very happy, but I was told this painter at velocity was like the #1 painter that used to work at Tekniq. This shop is his own shop, and the job is so sloppy and crappy. Now have to ditch out more money out of my own pocket just to fix all this. Also he's not cheap, he charges as much as Tekniq, but I think he probably uses cheap paint since it's newly started, and he's doing things really fast trying to get more customers?

[bambam]

I am not an anti civic person but that car is hideous! Waste of time and money.

Yeah for sure. I've still seen worse though! If forced at gunpoint to either drive this civic, or a completely riced up Cavalier or Neon... I'de choose this civic in a heartbeat ;)

I've seen some pretty pathetic Cavaliers out there.

[Bordello]

That piece of crap deserves to be on the front page of laughatrice.com. God I love that site.

[fast_typeR]

even tho this is alot of show or as some ppl like to call it 'rice',
i keep on saying over and over, we respect each others ride and not ridicule it. the guy has put alot of effort into the car shown by all his custom mods and i think he deserves better than being ridiculed.

LOL no he doesn't! What a ricer *points and laughs* HAHAHA! Me dislike tuners =P unless the car is stock on the outside and only souped up engine :D. I hate all that extra body kit that all those ricers get.

[MameXP]

ainsane, you're even seriously thinking i'm hooking you up with Velocity? Velocity has bad rep everywhere, thats why i tried to hook you up with them.

Heck they dont even know me, i really hoped you call them and tell i sent you tho :D

THis is a great thread! :D

[MameXP]

LOL no he doesn't! What a ricer *points and laughs* HAHAHA! Me dislike tuners =P unless the car is stock on the outside and only souped up engine :D. I hate all that extra body kit that all those ricers get.

Yeah true, but one can have JDM conversion tho. Like fully TypeR body, or Spoon, or Mugen, and support that are engine mods (JDM mods). That would deserve some respects

[fast_typeR]

the definition of a ricer is someone who makes unnecessary modifications to make their car look far. Yes, there's a bit of excessive bodywork to the car. But the fact he has a tuned b16a engine swap with turbo system to go along with the custom body kit, your point being....?

and btw what you mentioned is called a sleeper. that is a form of tuning. the term 'souping' up an engine, basically means ricing up the engine, to add components to the engine that makes it look fast. so i suggest if you're going to prove a point use another term.

[ch1zo]

Sorry I just hate wide-body kits. Makes it look like shyte. I've seen other nice kits for a RSX. Also the name on the back looks like a cheap decal. I'm sure your Mugen kit will be nicer than this.

the only wide body i like are the euro cars...hands down they look so wicked with the deep dish rims too!!

[fast_typeR]

Yeah true, but one can have JDM conversion tho. Like fully TypeR body, or Spoon, or Mugen, and support that are engine mods (JDM mods). That would deserve some respects

that's hilarious
how are any of the proposed modifications you mentioned any different from the civic in the pic? body kits, engine mods? and on top of that the civic has a JDM engine swap?

i think you need to re-educate on what 'ricer' means before you start accusing anyone of ricing

[waitin4BOOST]

What is a "JDM" engine mod?

are you refering components? ie. zeal coilovers? spoon calipers? mugen headers? endless..project u? that ****?
or are you refering to JDM stock parts? CTR cams, pistons, springs/retainers, LSD, ash tray...

My buddy had a JDM DC2...right down to the bronze tint glass, JDM parking pass incl. that weighed xx lbs lighter than USDM and the stupid trunk cuz the "JDM" doesn't have the rear wiper motor, stripped interior with 2 black JDM recaro's up front...along with all the other cosmetics crap...with a B20 overbored to 2.2 CRVTEC frankie running 13.1 compression on pump gas, mated to a Spoon tranny that ran 11 on street trim....in the end he had to part it out to get the 40k he wanted....it was a very clean teg, looked like any other one unless you knew your parts.

[Ziggy007]

I really hope that is a joke sell.

Anyone who had $90K to blow in a car wouldn't be interested in a riced up car like that.

Hell, for less than that I could be driving a fantastic Lexus...

[hightech]

bad way to sell a "showcar"...with typo's on moded parts :cheesygri

I'd rather get a Lexus for that $$....

Hahhaha you're so smart !!!!! I'm loss of word, i guess you got me Hahhahaha :lol:

I never said Riced out bodykit, dummy. I said JDM conversion thus Spoon, Mugen, or TypeR. US model never comes with the same body and certainly dont have Spoon or Mugen as optional package. (All they have is "A-spec" package bs)

You're really dumb you know that? You cant distiguish between Rice and JDM. : Only some dumb rice guy would do this.....

So you think that civic and a TypeR converted civic is the same? You have been riced too much kid

[fast_typeR]

:rolleyes:

if i don't know what JDM is, then I wouldn't have said the B16A is a JDM engine. remember my advice? think/read before you say something????

which btw after rereading your post, good one on the JDM engine mods. While you're at it, I would love to install JDM oil filter, JDM air filters, and possibly a JDM tissue box too.

[fast_typeR]

oh btw, all this time you have been accusing me of ricer....

so i guess it would suck for you to actually let you know that I drive a fully stock 325i as my daily car.

but i guess you're too busy calling that rice too. ;)

[ainsane]

LMAO this thread is getting funny. And no MameXP... I wouldn't be stupid enough to call Velocity. Cause I know how much that kind of work costs and know you're full of it!

Also ricer is really used too much. Ricer generally means that if they do more appearance mods than performance mods... it's a ricer. Or giving the appearance of power when there really is nothing inside to back it up. This Civic, while ugly as hell, still has some balls, so it's really hard to call it a ricer. Regardless if it has balls or not... he can't be charging someone for all the fun he had choosing all the parts and getting everything done. That's the main reason someone does something like that to a civic. Everyone knows it does nothing to increase the stock value.

On the other hand, MameXP... your "friend's" RSX, which you probably lied about anyway, is a pure ricer. He modified the outside without touching anything on the inside. And it looks very cheap wtih the snap-on wide body kit... and even changed the name! Here's a definition of rice from wikipedia.org, including a part on name-changing.


The term rice burner or rice car most often refers to automobiles (usually economy cars) that have the appearance of a customized or high performance car, but often little or no functional modifications, such as an improved engine, suspension, or brakes. This practice is in contrast to the "stealth" or "sleeper" style of automotive modification where a vehicle may have major internal modifications for greater performance, but the appearance remains similar to that of a stock model.

Some people will call any Asian made vehicle a "rice car", frequently derogating it in favor of US-produced vehicles. There is also some confusion with the term "rice rocket," meaning a fast car, sports car, or sport motorcycle from Japan. Alternatively, the term "rice burner" is also used derogatively by American bikers to refer to foreign-make motorcycles.

Identity crisis
An identity crisis can occur when an individual adds decals, badges or other identifiers from one type of vehicle onto another vehicle of the wrong type, or to a vehicle that does not contain the modifications or special attributes indicated by the accessory; examples could include an Impreza WRX sporting a VTEC sticker, or a Honda CR-X with a TRD (Toyota Racing Development) badge (by eliminating "ota" it would produce Toy Racing Development, a graphic modification done by some Toyota Truck enthusiasts). Honda vehicles, as an example, can often be observed with examples of identity crisis between different versions of the same models, with Type R badges on sedan Civics (the Civic Type R is only available in hatchback form) and older Civics made before the Type R was available.

AinSane, (are you insane? )
Nice!!! :D I really hoped you call them, it would be even funnier because they can actually do all that for $2500 to your mazda, making it looks so pimp you dont want to drive it no more

His name is Chris in Cali, friend of my cousin. His kit is the first Prodrive kit in US, they used his car for show thus the sticker just as an incentive. He got it almost for free. And no its not cheap, lol....


Now , Fast-N-Furious_TypeR good that you drive Beamer. Too bad you cant put JDM sticker on it can you?

You're so dumb that you cant see my point. JDM engine conversion is to upgrade all the necessary parts that match the JDM model of that car.

Thus RSX-S to SpoonRSX, or RSX-S to JDM ITR (NOT AU ITR i know you dont even know the diff between the 2)

Thats what i mean by JDM body with JDM engine mods.

Here is another point for you. A USDM Civic SiR with HSK Turbo, blah blah puting down over 200WHP, painted WHITE with......TypeR sticker all over.

Is it rice? Yes. It doesnt matter if you have power but you try to be something that you're not is also ricer (the owner wants his car looks like TypeR for attention). Unless the civic was fully TypeR converted and turboed

Ricer is also difined as ainsane quoted, any mods that makes the car looks fast also means rice.

Yo, typeR here is a slogan for you to put in sig. " If it aint TypeR, it aint a tight car ....yo"

Maybe you should have said you drive a Foxbody GN,

its pretty funny how you change your stance every single time. first you were calling me a ricer, which you got schooled, and then now you're telling me to slap JDM stickers on an European car, which is clearly a form of ricer. Then you say how this Civic is ricing, theny you tell people to not rice you slap on JDM body kits and JDM engine mods, which makes no sense first and second, which is still rice. So what are you going to say next? From where you're going, I wouldn't be surprised that you say waxing your car is a form of ricing because it adds 'bling', which is an appearence enhancement and therefore rice.

If I remembered correctly, someoen was commenting on how much he likes his friend's RSX snap-on widebody kit, how that OEM A-SPEC RSX looks awesome (LOL that was a joke, make sure you look at the logos before boasting about it), but i guess you're too shameless to recall that.

Just to let you know, your 'ricer' posts are not helping you, but they are quickly ricing up your reputation :)

[ainsane]

lmao this thread is awesome!

I wonder if this is considered a ricer:

WTF? Are you really that ******? Since when i told you to put JDM stickers on your car? You dont even understand i was making fun on you? Jesus christ....

JDM model conversion is rice you said? WTF in your head? No wonder you're a ricer because a ricer dont see the line. They're already in Rice zone.

I'm done with you, you're the most ******** person i've ever known. Gosh Read my post again,.... i wonder that degree exactly did you get? EE? from UW? Whos your dean then?lol

[fast_typeR]

its pretty obvious your pretty lame attempts kinda put the joke back at you, because last time i checked...... people were laughing at you :lol:

and btw, there's no dean of electrical engineering. sedra's the dean of 'engineering', our chair is catherine rosenburg
