I'm 'ricing' my car slowly...

[mztykal]

...but it's getting there. It's going to be all show, no go. Until I get my B16a. But for now here's a list of mods I've done in the past week or plan on doing in the next week...

- '98 Civic seats (swapped into my CRX)
- full sound system (pushing only 600-watts though)
- coilovers (next week)
- front bumper (from a wingswest RS kit)
- new tires

There should be more done in the next month or two and I'll have it fully 'riced' out. *L*

BRING ON THE FLAMES!

Got pics?

 

[prodigy]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :Q

Put some Yellow decals on your ride to make your car go even faster.

 

[geno]

Nice - get some pics up soon, I like Rex's

 

[mztykal]

Elemental007 - Nah, not yet. I gotta get my front bumper mounted. I took it to get sprayed like a couple days ago. Should be on my car before the end of next week. I'll take pics after my car is dropped. I think it'll look much better that way. When I do take pics I'll post em up for EVERYONE to see!

 

[mztykal]

John - Don't worry, no stickers though. So I guess I'm stuck at my stock Hp. I don't like stickers, they look fvcking ugly.

I put a S2000 antenna on my Celica GTS. Got rid of that stock CB whip..

 

[mztykal]

prodigy69 - There's never such a thing as too much rice. Rice is always good!

 

[mztykal]

Chris A - I'm gonna shave off all the side molding on my car and the antenna. I might throw S2000 tail lights if I have enough cash. But that's just a big "IF". I plan on getting one-piece Accord lights for the front. That's gonna happen soon, I hope!

 

[geno]

Yeah - definitly go for the headlight swap, I like the look of the front end of the CRX, and it looks even better with a pair of Accord/Integra (prev. gerneration's that look like the Type R's).

 

[snut]

now all u need is the big decals that says type R that ppl put on no matter what band their car is

 

How bout the engine?
Thats probably the most important part.
This summer will be the Rice burning summer in my gti vr6.

 

[Ladies Man]

don't forget the big VTEC sticker

 

[Imported]

Forget the B16A. Drop in a Integra GS-R engine if you can. Or an LS block with a Type-R head. Nothing beats hybrids..

 

[geno]

/me is laughing at all the "put stickers on" posts...


[/sarcasm]

 

Have you ever bought 10 dollar imitation sun glasses at the mall?

 

[Chris A]

<< This summer will be the Rice burning summer in my gti vr6. >>

Rice Celica guages

 

[geno]

ChrisA, what's so rice about them?

 

[divinemartyr]

<< Put some Yellow decals on your ride to make your car go even faster. >>



Type R stickers and VTEC stickers add between 5 and 15hp each, don't forget those!

Well the car was riced. I was refering to the speed though.

 

[StageLeft]

Is that pic legit?

Myztykal...oh God, I dunno what to say. Yeah I do - don't try and take on SammySon at the lights

Aren't you the one who bought the car with a salvage title? If not, ignore me completely. If you are, though..... Forget EVERYTHING everyone says about rice. From a PURELY FINANCIAL point of view, you are making a GRAVE mistake. No matter what you do to that car, it will always have a SALVAGE TITLE. What does that mean? Lemon: Stay away. Not to mention the fact that all these &quot;mods&quot; make the car less valuable. By putting money into this car, you are not only throwing it COMPLETELY away, you are also building negative equity as quickly as you possibly can. &quot;Ricing up&quot; a salvage vehicle...... I really can't think of a worse thing to do with money. I hope you have a lot, and it doesn't matter to you. If you ever try to sell it, all the &quot;But I have $15,000.00 worth of enhancements into this car&quot; isn't gonna help you when all you get are offers around HALF its blue book value.

Sorry.

Chris a, wow you have a pic of your car at 150mph.
I have a 4 banger mistu that does that, and its not even a racing engine.
I say, bring your celica to the line against a gti vr6.
Id even do it with a heavier jetta body.
Many cars are even in the long run, almost all new cars (unless governed) can make 150mph. It really depends on how quickly you make it to that 150mph.

 

[Delusion2001]

ricers are crap!
