You'll find that living in Australia, many Aussies call any Japanese car a "rice burner". Doesn't matter if it is stickered up or turbo'd, the fact that it was produced in Japan is enough to warrant it being called a "rice burner". This isn't a new thing, they were even doing it when my dad was at Uni.

"Rice" is generally considered to be anything that alludes to the car being quick, when it clearly is not. Ie. phat exhausts on a N/A car, fake intercoolers etc etc

Wow, is that truely your first encounter of being labled under the "ricey" banner???

get use to it!!! lol

I work 4 Holden - U can imagine the sh*t that I cop. I've got alot of friends with some very fast good ol' V8's - we always dissin' each others cars - all in good fun. theres soooooooooooo many comebacks for both groups of cars.

The rivalry has been there for years - & will always be there. makes things interesting

yeah Rice can be labelled as uneccssary mods that dont help performance ...... just look at uneekwahns car *stir, stir* :D

or Rice burner just a jap import car.

I called my friends Sigma rice once (he was trying to do it up) and he came back with "If mine Rice then you have an Industrial Sized Rice Burner" .... he made a good point i shut up LOL or you could have Holden parents like mine who go "Whats the jap crap doing under our driveway"

i liked it when i got my car, couple of mates go 'ahhh rice boy'

i was like - whats rice about my GTR

the GTR wheels?

the GTR body kit?

the GTR badges?

its pretty much stock - so it can't be rice, that shut them up

I think Jimih has hit the nail on the head here. Ive read many threads in the past about rice and i would say that was the best explaination ive heard yet.

    • I downloaded the apps (for windows) and Consult 1 doesn't have this function on it for the Consult 1 plug which I'm pretty sure all Skylines have. You would think someone would have a workaround after 30 years for all Skylines which have ABS.
    • Also, I don't know the actual ABS system on the skylines, but a sneaky thing could be a piece of electronic equipment that makes the ABS think you're moving, and then same piece can send a signal for a locked up tyre... Activate ABS without slamming brakes...
    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.
