Neon Lights "Under Body" - Page 3

Let people do as they please its their car. If I need down force on my truck I put my tractor in the bed. Thats good for 2000 pounds of down force. Stops the hideous wheel spin. If I want to go fast and need more down force I can put the loader bucket up and adjust the angle just right.

Thats good because I'm looking for an asian chick. No really I just think it will add to the style. Maybe for you old timers its a worthless mod, but the sky is just a 4 cylinder. I hate to say it but it is, even though I have some extra boost from my turbo, its definate rice material. Dont tell me that fast and furious rides are not bad ass. This is probably coming from someone who would never think of drifting their car. Only to look at it in the garage and drive it on the weekends. Poor Car.....

I agree 100%.
Next you'll be putting a big gay spoiler on it.

Maybe, A big Gay Spoiler would be nice. Maybe I'll just air brush that on there, "Big Gay Spoiler" what do you think about that? Maybe even some Hydraulics, underbody lights and a Big Gay Spoiler.

Ha Ha.
Nice one.

Brilliant
You fit it & i'll provide the lettering.

Hydraulics isn't a bad idea though, make those speed bumps a bit easier.

Cheers Mate.

Of course I am not going to put a big gay spoiler. Hydros would be fun though. I can see it now, pulling up to a light, reving the engine thowing the rear up in the air like you were ready to pounce and then keeping the rpms up high. Am I weird or does that sound fun?

So you are hating on your own car even with a turbo... right.

You could trade yours in for a Z06 I'm sure and get into a V8 pushrod monster - zoooooooooooooooooooooom!

Also as cfjara noted you know you can get 15 more HP just from putting 3 or 4 stickers on each side of the vehicle right? There are dyno #s everywhere on the internet to support this fact.

No I'm not Hating on my car, I Love My Car. Its just in my mind what defines a ricer is 4cly. Whats wrong with a Ricer? As long as its not one of those Super Ricer Posers, with single loud ass pipe with no motor to back it. I wouldnt trade my Car for anything, will have a hard time even giveing it away in my will. Just bury me in it, wire tie my hands to the wheel and shifter, put my shades on. I would have to have the top up though.

You have no idea do you? 4 bangers arn't what they used to be, so you saying that a Lotus isn't a race car? Big blocks are good for drag and such but for something like autox I feel 4 bangers excel. I know a guy in portland who has a 1000+hp four banger that would smoke the crud out of any market V8.
I built and owned a modified Evo 8, so if you think that it just sat in the garage you'd be sadly mistaken bro. Drifting is a new concept to me, something I might work on but not to impress my homies in the parking lot of walmart at 2am with underglows goin.
My defination of rice is anything thats imported and looks like it came out of a hotwheels extreme box, has a crappy body kit with unpainted panels, something that sounds like my weed wacker, etc. Something true enthusists will point at and laugh, sure you'll look good to the teens but us "old folk" just know better. Wisdom comes with age.
I will admit, my motorcycle is my sit in the garage while the weather is cold and ride the weekends type deal.

I'm more of a big engine guy, but I can't get a car with good gas mileage with a big engine, so I will be driving the Sky with the 4cyl, and then in 5 years after the warrenty is up, probably moving up to stage 4 turbo, or a v8

LOL, get a clue. How many drift events have you entered? Any videos?

Either way drifting is the figure skating of racing.

I like some V8's to, don't get me wrong. I almost bought a 1960's mustang frame but 10 minutes before I got there it was already sold. Sky is a nice car, beautiful stock, I wouldn't want to change the looks in any way, but its not the looks that sold me on it, its the way it feels on the road, how it handles and how comfortable I was. Thus why I didn't pick the lotus.
I'll probably wait till they bring back the road runner or the duster before I buy a V8.

Back onto the whole underglow. Its your car, you do what you want. I personally don't like it but my option really shouldn't matter in the end as long as you're personally satisfied. Girls, I think anything looks good on your car cause you're girls

uranium-238 · 10-17-2008, 01:20 PM

I have one thing to say about the underglow lights.

Rice.

shifty · 10-19-2008, 05:02 PM

I guess you guys arnt asian... dont you know asians love rice...

Wow!! Who came out with a stock 4 banger cranking over 1000 horse? Or are we comparing apples to oranges again? How would the 4 banger stand up against a Nascar Engine built for Daytona?
