well I wasn't saying that it is/is not functional but the general consensus was that tureks wisefab frs was doing it wrong, and FD cars were doing it wrong because of ride height, even though they are obviously functional. (not saying I think his car looks good either)

Just saying that it looks bad to me, and probably anybody else who isn't into stance. I think this forum just has a large amount of stance people.

I'm not into stance, but that car just looks like it was well crafted. minus the zip tie looking things sticking up it looks like someone took pride in their work and executed perfectly. That frs was a claimed "street car" with like 5" of poke... and people just miss the fact that drifting used to be about style, both driving and the actual car. Now it's just who can get from point A to point B the fastest while making the most smoke... there used to be a better balance of function and form. Not all show cars are race cars, but all race cars should be show cars.

It has flat pieces of rusty metal welded on the front fenders for "flares". Sorry, just because it's in Japan doesn't mean it gets a free pass!

Yeah, lets just run some wire right by a fuel source that could be a leak source...



Why is there a flex pipe...on just one side...I am so confused.



In hindsight...the heatwrap actually makes it look better.

If they weren't rusty it'd be nice, but you're right... I didn't even notice they weren't paint matched.

I think those are those parking light things? I could be wrong though.


If ever you guys think owning a 240 is bad you should just hop on some other forums like Bimmerforums, or ClubLexus. This is the type of stuff you will find:

No, that thing is fine. Probably not to everyone's taste... but fine.

THIS on the other hand, is the doing it wrong equivalent:

Trailer wheels, garden trim, spray paint, the hoodrich wannabe works. If i'm not mistaken its much more retarded now. Was probably still salvageable at this point but not no more.

Now LockOn!

You know the guy is doing it wrong...lol

The fact that he took our shitty ass style, created a high quality shitbox imitation of that red s14...

He is doing it wrong...because it's sooo right.








See...this car is doing is so damn right, that it's sooo fucking wrong.
It's too clean, It's too polish, it's too detailed the fender wells cut is too symmetrical, the dirt/fade on the SR20 valve cover is too proportioned and calculated, the Bride seat is legit (it MUST be a rep for it to qualify for the Florida/Hoonigan/#AINTCARE style), the Florida license plate is not bent, the paintjob is has too much quality involved, the fender flares and body parts are too fitted and too precise, No ISIS, Megan etc parts...

This man crafted a spectacular, perfected, high quality shitbox imitation. In my eyes, he doing it VERY wrong...lol

But nonetheless, I would like to give a sincere thank you the international, world-renown, condemned to breed more fuck ups in the American import/drift scene than any other region of the U.S...The great state of Florida.

Now you infected the brothers/sisters overseas...but there is one exception to this, they still prevail in high quality craftsmanship...even if it's a high quality shitbox imitation. In my opinion, regarding above...JPN always gets a pass.

Sure, lets just set up the v-mount the complete opposite way it should go. This way we know the air just brushes over the surface instead of passing through the fins like it is supposed to.
