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!

Show us what these 'updated type x lights' look like.

But yeh so far if i had a 180 id have those lights in the 1st pic,maybe tint them a little.

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.

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
