forgot to add this

theres a form of modding a import that is 10x worse then riceing it up, and that is the so called DRIFT PIG i know of ppl who have had nice cars but decided to turn there cars into drift cops even tho they dont drift but are just after a drifter image crazy,,, i rekon

see now, it comes down to what u define as rice, these are the 2 main ones ive heard: very asian inspired eccentric styling, and modification which is made to make the car look like it is faster than it is or using a performance part for cosmetic reasons. and i gotta say, that 2nd definition applies to pretty much everyone on this site. so really there is a bit of rice in everyone. i do agree with you though, people look for that thrashed out look to make it look like there car gets thrashed, when in fact it doesnt. imo its that mentality which is everything wrong with the import scene these days.

Who cares what style people define your car as... if you like it, that's all that matters, and if you like it, chances are someone else is going to like it too.

We all drive ricer cars, given that this is a Skyline forum and the term rice refers to the Japanese car scene... but who cares? Not me.

no mate its not about how much money they've spent on their car

its about cars that are highly modded and showing the viewers the mods in detail

im sure if you had a tough car you wouldn't say no to a magazine or DVD cover/feature

personally i always wanted me car to be on the cover of a mag and it was a massive achievement for me and great exposure for my business

Why are you defending yourself to a fu*kstick who only has 5 posts and is obviously here to start a shit fight?

Outlaw, you need to make some usefull posts before you start bitching about 'ricers'.

Bad day today, sorry :rofl:

not sure what you want to define it as but LED tail lights on r32's or any skyline is rice, shit, gay whatever you want to call it

Even worse on 180's....the ghey round ones that bug out look so damn ugly.

Notice how they all go for a round tail light......everyone wants a skyline...LoL

HAHAHA would make a good sig.

You're fuggin joking right? You think the old style tail lights in the 1st pic look better than the updated Type X style lights? The older style look absolutely terrible compared to Type X lights!

I'm steering towards the the older style but topped off with a Origin / Vertex Bodykit and no spoiler.

Type X, at 1st I thought it was an aftermarket thing but found out its a factory (updated as you said) Guess I don't mind.

AS LONG as its not on a S15. If you have a S15 stick to the factory rear lights. I saw one this morning and made the car look cheap and tacky IMO.

IMO the stocko yellow indicator section is ugly as and the crystal versions (that keep the red part red, and simply make the indicator clear) are a massive improvement

Yeah I seen that before, gives it an updated look but I guess I just prefer the the orange indicator.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
