1. Rice car - An automobile, generally of import classification, that is souped up and characterized by use of stickers and decals that do not match any manufacturer of the car, spoilers that look like airplane landing gear, and hideous paintjobs and fart cans.rocket.

2. RICE - stands for Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement.

Originally, for me, either Cobalts or Neons are not rice cars. But if someone do the above things to ANY cars, then it become a rice car.

Take a look at need for speed underground.. You'll soon see that the dodge neon was a very fast car... And for some reason drift really good too

Ahh underground.... The main reason I've always wanted a skyline.

Do you think actually being fast means something is not a ricer? That would mean a 400hp Silvia is not a ricer. I disagree.

The main reason I think Cobalts and Neons are ricers...

Bit of a grey area, But i'd happily label them as riced when they all 'tricked' out

WTF are you talkin' bout, Willis?

Rice comes from Rice, as in the stuff that Jap cars run on. A rice mobile is a Japanese built vehicle that's covered in shit. It's not an acronym.

By the very definition a Cobalt or Neon can't actually be a Ricer as they are not built in Japan however I think the term has broadened to capture any vehicle which you typically see which is as slow as a wet week and tarted up like a slurry getting ready for a night under the red light.

What are you talking about? :wacko:

That's exactly what I said. :blink:

So first you are saying only Japanese cars can be riced up, and then said any vehicles can be riced up?? FAIL. :down:

i'm pretty sure that the "race inspired cosmetic enhancement" acronym was invented well after rice was a common term.

imho, rice is rice, whether the car is US, EU, JP or UK etc etc

Nice comprehension.

You said RICE is some shitty acronym. It's not. The term Rice came from the early 90's and it was a derogatory term to describe JAPANESE built cars which were slow and covered in wings and stickers and shit. They were called Rice cause they were Japanese built and "ran on rice" which is also taking the piss.

Technically a US built car can't be "rice" as it was not built in Japan (where cars run on rice) however the vernacular has now expanded to include all cars which look like a harlot after a night on the Breezers. So I'd say in this day and age the Cobalt and Neons can be considered Rice.

Yes, I agree with you. It could have been.

Sorry my bad, I forgot to mention that "RICE - stands for Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement" is something I picked up on the internet, not something I made up.

Yes.

But they have to be slow (Not that slow) and covered in wings and stickers and shit. Not stock. Stock cars are not "riced", are they? :P

Correctamundo.

I assumed to OP was referring to these cars, should they have had stupid looking shit stuck all over them.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
