Whoops, that should be "> 10 beers". Theres a six pack left in the carton plus a coulple in the fridge. My friends are soft, so I didn't get a chance to drink the rest ;)

Ah, is this in no way directed at you. We already made peace in the last thread ;)

This is more a problem with IMACUL8 and moderators that won't let me end with a decent argument (yeah, thats you Boostzor ;) ).

Again, R33_Cam, this poll is not directly aimed at you. And in the face of popular belief, I believe that every individual is free to do what they want to their car. What I'm looking out for is the Skyline community as a whole.

i was just makin sure thats all, no offence intended ;) im gonna say that i dont rekon i am complete ricey, only a few stickers and 2 neons, not as bad as F&F graphics, and fluffy toys, and it comes down to how far someone has to go to start getting called "riceboy", for instance, i know a few commondore owners that would call any skyline owner "riceboy", regardless of stickers etc etc, i think the word is used to loosely, and depending on who u are and what your into depends on how you use it.......

thats my thoughts on the subject, this thread will probably get a few people a bit hot under the collar, but it should be a good laugh to see what kinda comments come out, and who takes it to heart.

theres my 2c worth :shake:

:fight!: :uzi: :(

What the hell is an ostrich?:confused: is that like an emu?

IMHO any additions that do not enhance the performance or basic operation of the car and/or driving experience is rice eg anything that takes time and effort an does nothing but make the car "look" different (does not include restoring of stock appearance)

Man u guys have no sense of humour!

But seriously........since this is such a serious thread,

A true riceboy i think has all the looks of a fast and stylish car but no go in it at all..

Stickers and neons are "ricey" but not too bad i guess...

The stickers on the side of yr car are originally telling people that u have such brands uder the hood or interior! Putting them on because they are stickers is VERY RICEY! And i dont want to advertise my car to theives that it may not be standard.

Boost gauge in an NA car. Ricey

5 inch tip with 2inch system is ricey!

Anyone who does up an excel or a MR Lancer Must eat rice 3 times a day

:(

An ostrich is like an emu dude. Never seen Hey Hey it's saturday ?

I DO so have a sense of humour, anyone that's seen dude where's my car would know what Im talking about when I say "dude, ostrich" .. "no dude, Llama!" heheh

Riceboy ?

I installed an RSM (it does nothing for the car) Im gettin tint, plates. etc. all do nothing for performance..

the term is used WAY too loosely, or maybe im just a ricer at heart :(

Need i say more eh Gradenko?

Yeh those stickers really suck. It used to be a badge of honor in the early days but then all the ricers started goin at it so whats the point anymore? It the same IMHO as writing 'my car is fast' on the side door and driving a stock excel, what tools.:lol:

I think macka meant Lancer GLi. :) In the early models, the MR was the only 2 door to get the "big" (1.8) engine. Besides, that car wasn't riced - no evo kits or big ass wings there.

What is a lemma... I just stepped out of a Theoretical CS exam yesterday, hence I have theorems, corollaries and lemmas coming out of my ears.

    • Good tips, will get on those tomorrow. When doing the maintenance I did move a few of those connectors around, and things that are old tend to not like moving around. (Like me).
    • Don't try it. It will be shit. Better chance of damaging the engine than gaining any knowledge about the old one. Maybe, but unlikely, especially if the O2 sensor is working. You can use NissDataScan to look at the stock ECU.   Cleaning the AFM is seldom necessary and seldom helps. The R35 coil & loom conversion should eliminate dud coils or plugs. But as you still have misses - look to the plug where the coil loom connects to the engine loom, and the CAS plug. Need quality connections there. Also look to injector plugs. And the AFM plug while you're at it. Also look to whether your injectors are clean and flowing evenly. Get them out and onto a testbench.
    • Good to know, I feel like I am in for a rollercoaster ride that looks like a sine wave. 
    • You'll fit right in. Acceptance is the first step.
    • Hey folks. I've been lurking and browsing the forum for a while, since I got into my head that I wanted a skyline. Having purchased an overpriced completely stock GTT, (only "mods" it has is HKS pod filter and catback) now that it became legal in the US, it was all glorious and sututu noises here and there. But then I wanted to do things right and went to do basic maintenance. After all the fluids, filters done, I did the spark plugs, that's when the problems started.. First the car started spluttering at around 4.5k RPM. Which I gapped down the new plugs and that solved the sputter there, but the car now always misfires at idle with pops when lifting off and shifting 2nd to 3rd. Similar to the issues in this recent thread. I've been banging my head against the wall, reading the threads here and trying suggestions for a couple months now, so decided to start this one to explain exactly what I tried and what is going on. The symptoms of the issue: Idle and low revs misfiring intermittently. You can hear the exhaust tone change and the shakes on the shifter knob. It happens frequently, but doesn't seem to have a rhythm to it. Pops when backing off throttle. It pops and or burbles almost feels like it spits fire when it pops. (Happens mostly in 3rd gear at around 2k RPM). When under load and after 6k RPM, it also pops when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. There's a ticking noise at around 2k RPM in 2nd gear going downhill, seems unrelated though but I am out of educated and downright dumb guesses. Not noticeable lack of power when putting the car into load. The attempted diagnosis and solutions: Unplugging coils when the car is running This did nothing to change the idling and tone shift for every cylinder. Checking the exhaust headers with thermometer They all are within what I'd say it is margin of error of the laser thermometer New spark plugs Tossed two new sets, copper, iridium and using the old ones, still misfiring, even re gapped to 0.8mm, still same thing. MAF cleaned with the "specific" spray cleaner No changes in the issues what so ever. Brand new loom and r35 coil conversion (was going to add the r35 coils anyway) car runs arguably better, still misfires, but seems like does less frequently. Placebo? Code 21 now being thrown, thanks nissan gods. Removed the CAS to check the shaft for play or anything. CAS seems all fine, nothing that indicates any issue, visually speaking. Things to attempted next: Ordered a new MAF (chinesium from Amazon, to be able to return regardless of result). Fuel with proper gas, maybe it is this California water that they sell as gas that is to blame? Plugin the link ECU and check the info using the built in base map. Go back to BMW and eat my rob bearing breakfast without milky oil mixture.   Do any of you have experienced anything like this or have any suggestion?
