Everyone's most UNIQUE mod...

[tkrPerformance]

sorry I dont a any pics but any way I got a set of jdm tails and fender blinkers for my car from a team mate in japan also the awd swap I did to the same spyder

 

[boostin94]

I don't have any pictures of my mod either, but I have my boost gauge mounted inside the overhang of the stock gauge cluster. I can't see my mph between 90-110, but I figure that going that fast will either get me a ticket or a better ET anyways

[GSX98Eclipz]

Hmmm most unique mod right now would be my ETE53 Turbo, but later on after I figure out what else I can do to the interior I probably will have something different to say

To tell the truth, it's kinda ghetto'ed in there right now. It's got plumber's tape holding it in there right now. My g/f's dad does some beautiful fiberglass work, so I'm thinking about asking him to help me make a pod for it to give it a more complete look. That's why I've never taken a picture of it. As soon as I get a picture of it, I'll post it

Edit: I was able to dig up a crappy photo of where the gauge is.

You can get a carbon fiber single gauge pod to mount that in there. They sell them here: http://www.machv.com/gaugmounsol.html
I'm going to put my boost gauge in one of those and bolt it to the steering column, a little to the left, so that it'll only block the stock boost gauge and maybe a few idiot lights.

Dude what are you talking about? The angel eyes are great. Wish i knew how to do that

 

[97GSXAT]

I personally think those angel eyes look sick. Only thing I would put on my car that could be considered that "R" word, even though I think they are far from it. That is custom work that took a long long time to do, when is the last time you saw someone try and make altezza lights themself I don't think you have. At least he did something that I honestly have never ever seen on one of these cars, you have to give credit to a pioneer of anything when it comes to the cookie-cutter import world.

 

[burstofspeed]

My mods include the carbon fiber spark plug cover

And a carbon fiber steering wheel cover along with various CF parts in the car, i have yet to see any CF steering wheel covers.

I think it looks great, and as of now I havn't seen any other car besides a BMW that has "angel eyes"

As far as it being rice, when you put hyperwhite or HID lights in your car does that make you rice too? because all you are doing is "ripping off" higher end cars that come with HID stock.

Here is mine, i just made it....my heat shield!

. I DO have HID in my car not rip off lights, check out my pics in my gallery. Those are real 4300K HID lights, but thanks for comin out. You can get HID lights on just about any car now friggin GMC Jimmy's come with them. Besides that there is an actual performance beneift of having more lighting, what beneift is there from having blue rings in your headlights? I can get you some blue washer nozzles to go along with those if you would like. I don't know about you but I don't drive my car daily and it's used a lot of the time at night on the streets so I need better lighting when going fast at night. There is no compareson between regular lights and HID for night driving. Nevermind the fact that no particular company invented HID lights. They are used for parking lots and construction workers at night, skating rinks etc etc. HID are hardly new or manufacturer specific like Angle eyes or Alteeza lights.

And angle eyes are a term coined by BMW for the lights that is why the aftermaret calls them Halo or whatever. THey are available for every little rice boy car out there..

Just because its new makes it rice?

Oh and HID was very manufacturer specific, back in 91 when our friends at BMW were the first to introduced HID lighting to consumers in their BMW 750iL, they were the only company to do so for a couple years then everyone else copied them.

:laugh: How much HP do those HID's give you? 10-15 hp to the wheels? They are as much as a "performance benefit" as air bags.

My main point is as of now they aren't rice because no body else has them, whether or not this will be the case in 6 month has yet to be seen. And no they are not performance oriented they are just eye candy. Kind of like adding a stereo is not performance but rather ear candy.

 

[DSMJim]

No because your ripping off another company's vehicle specific idea makes it rice. Kind of like everybody with a bubble back civic driving around with the VW whip antenna when it was only VW that had those. I had one on my GTi VR6 because it came with a whip antenna I hated seeing riceboys with a VW antenna on their car, espically half the time they were ractive non-working look a likes. Yeah it's rice dude.

Oh and HID was very manufacturer specific, back in 91 when our friends at BMW were the first to introduced HID lighting to consumers in their BMW 750iL, they were the only company to do so for a couple years then everyone else copied them.

BMW was not the first manufacturer to introduce HID lighting, but thanks. It was employed on many cars on the race track. Ever head of the 24hours of lemans or Pikes Peak? All those big ass lights on the front of the cars were add on HID lights. They were used in aftermarket lighting systems and manufacturer made racing specific lighting systems LONG before BMW ever decided to put them on their cars.

:laugh: How much HP do those HID's give you? 10-15 hp to the wheels? They are as much as a "performance benefit" as air bags.

I really hope your joking asking if there is HP increase? You have a very narrow view of what "PERFORMANCE" means. Performance is not just measured in terms of HP, if that is what you think then need to check the dictonary because I'm sure it doesn't mention horsepower anywhere. Let me explain it in laymens terms since you don't seem to be grasping the concept of performance when applied to anything else other than HP. HID when compared to a stock bulb puts out over 2.5 times the light while using half the wattage. That would make the "performance" (there is that word) of the HID bulb higher than a standard bulb therefore making it a performance or higher performing lighting system than a stock one is. To use your own example, air bags are a higher performance or performing safety system compared to just a seatbelt. If you need more information I suggest you talk to your mommy or daddy, and have them revoke your computer privilages too.

My main point is as of now they aren't rice because no body else has them, whether or not this will be the case in 6 month has yet to be seen. And no they are not performance oriented they are just eye candy. Kind of like adding a stereo is not performance but rather ear candy.

Nobody else has them? Your joking right? They are available from APC for every model Honda out there. Every little riceboy in my town is running around with them, probablly yours too your just not getting out there very much. Check NOPI online E-CAT and you will see they are available for just about every car that products are mass produced for, ie Honda Civic 92-95. Just wait until this summer they will be on every car just like alteeza lights.

sorry for making something that offends you. i didn't know this site was a communists run board. should we all kneel down to you and worship you like castro? what people do is what people do. i started doing all this #@%#@%#@%#@% to my car when i was 16, now i'm 20, going into the air force and being sent to europe. my car now is just a like a model. something to do and admire. besides, i got my bike, that's my real rice rocket. more of a rush than car and all. so what you say about people is your expression. what other people say is theirs. so why go and ruin it? does it turn you on or something?

Bro I was a victim of DSMJIM's wrath and I believe due to my rebuttal I wasn’t getting enough sex according to him. Ignore the guy he obviously likes to rip and rant on people. It seems that he gets off to it. If you like it that's all that matters. I think it looks hot and you are a first with the blue halo effect.

 

[burstofspeed]

I find it ironic that you are throwing a hissy fit about performance on the Non-Performance Mods (Interior/Exterior) fourms.

As far as a lighting system being "performance" I think your definition of performance is too broad. Generally speeking when you are on the subject of cars "performance"(theres that word agian) applies to the mechanics of the car (i.e.-suspention, engine, tires). I think you are confusing "performance" with quality, HID is higher quality compared to stock lighting systems. Hey I just put in windshield washer fluid with a lower freezing temp. and technically it "performs" better, but would I consider that a performance benefit, or go put that on my mods list? I think not.

And i wasnt joking nobody by me has "angel eyes", I guess its a Canuck thing.

 

[DSMJim]

As to not hijack this thread anymore and to keep this from becomming a pissing match im just going to end it here. Maybe it's because I work on honda's with ricy crap on them all day long that I'm hyper-sensetive to anything that is remotely close to that in my opinion.

Sorry to have turned it into a pissing contest i'll try and tone down the anti-rice setimante built up inside and finsih that damn b18 in the morning. barf... My Bad
