Damn ricer cars

I hate the people that think they can spend a couple hundred dollars on a freaking Honda civic and suddenly qualify as being a badass.
Some guy just drove by at 1:30 freaking AM, doing at least 80. He was in a civic with some cheap fiberglass body mods, lights under the car, and one hell of a noisy engine "brrrrrr *HISS* brrrrrr *HISS* brrrrrr".
It sounded like a lawnmower engine that someone had set up a gear shift for.
He thinks he's hot shit because he can drive around his noisy, ubiquitous asian car and use it to wake people up in the middle of the night.
I suppose the joke is on him, though. With his cheap components, a man could easily cause several hundred dollars worth of damage to his car with only his bare hands.
"How much did those body mods cost?" "about 2 hundr... WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!" "hrm, pretty flimsy... just broke right off in my hand"

hrm... perhaps his car is more expensive than I thought.
His engine sounded like utter shit though. Our college's 1-cylinder glass engine sounded better than that when it was running on fucking vodka.

I think mine qualifies as a ricer I mean it's a 4cyl, however I put as much sound dampening on it as possible. It sounds okay... None of that "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..........EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE............eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee............." shit

fo shizzle!
and the funky sounds is probably a mixture of a charger as the other guy said, and also some custom exaust to make it faster? and louder (like they do with the harleys right?)
either way, they are pretty fast, but the body mods normally mean that he has removed the safety stuff... also those strong hoods which dont bend and are supposed to be lighter, ya know, if it doesnt bend, when you crash that hood is coming though your windshiend and cutting off your head...

hondas... fast... 
some of them might have enough aftermarket parts to move a little quick, but theyre all still econoboxes. and they're front wheel drive. you can only do so much to those cars, and they sound like a wet fart.
v8 muscle and rear wheel drive for me... more bang for the buck and more performance possibilities.
and yes, i know there are fast hondas out there, you can make anything fast. it just takes stupid amounts of money.

Heh, don't let the posers fool you. A well-tuned Honda Civic/Integra can be brutally fast. There are the kiddies who drive around the neighborhood with Autozone bolt-on mufflers and body kits, and then there are those who do it right. Unfortunately, the former ruin it for people who do it the right way.
Central Florida Turbo has Civics/Integras that will beat a a Dodge Viper or Toyota Supra from a rolling start--nothing "ricer" about that.

Why not just take that $20,000-$30,000 you need to truly make a honda fast and buy a REAL fast car. After buying a car then ricing it out you can get up to a total cost of around $50k. I've heard of people getting up to total costs of $70k... for a civic/accord/integra.
Let me guess: "it's self expression and it shows you know what you're doing."
I'd take that 40k-50k you spent ricing out your car and buy a car that can already kick a riced out civic's ass coming out of the dealership. But that's just me

Hey I souped up my last car, which was a 92 honda accord. I put an intake, exhaust, body kit, which i added mods to the front. I added fog lights, built them in and fog lights as turn signals up front built into the body kit. I molded everything with fiberglass and bondo. Got rid of the original turn signals up front and put metal underneath then bondod the whole thing. Took a lot of work and it looked really really good, but I got into an accident before I got it painted. Totalled it too. Lost my license as well.
Plan on buying a 94 honda accord when I get the money, around 5 thousand dollars.

it is more than likely the blowoff valve on a turbo, as how he puts it makes the hiss between gears.
also, i have yet to find a honda that can beat my mkIII supra turbo, even ones that are all modded and souped up.....most of those people just put a 90 dollar muffler on their car and call it a racer...LMAO

Sadly, with all the money he probably dropped on that car the dude could've bought a real sports car. My dad was just telling me the other day how he enjoys racing the Honda ricers in his Porsche, and how they think they're all hot shit, until they're left in the dust.

fucking honda's that are all riced out suck ass.. it looks really gay to put a fucking coffee can on the end of a 1" exhaust pipe. and doing all those mods kinda defeats the purpose of having a 4 cylinder (gas economy) and they will never make as much power as a well built American V-8

It might look allright after a paintjob.
I have to say that a civic can look cool if it's fixed up right... I just think it's a waste of money to dump a bunch of performance upgrades into it. And beyond that, it's really stupid when the owner thinks they're hot shit after they put some money into it. Like the guy who went driving around waking people up with the loudener on his exhaust pipe (those are illegal here, anyways... and for good reason, they fucking wake people up in the middle of the night).

My toyota tundra (v8) is also really loud when the turbo charger kicks in. It has one of those k&n cold air intakes too, that doesn't help. I almost never rev it up that high just because it's so damn fucking loud!
It really pisses me off to see dumb ass kids with hemis barrelling away and making it so I can't even hear the radio. But if it was a civic I would almost be tempted to ram them into a telephone pole or something.

the bottom line is that japanese cars serve their purpose, but none of them will ever have anything to do with coolness or style, or anything that will imporve your quantity/quality of poon.  they've no real class to them, they're just "convenient."
you want a real car, get something made in america from between 1960-1974. 1970 pontiac GTO, 69 mustang mach 1, 67 mercury cougar, 68 olds.. 442, 71 cuda, 71 dodge challenger, 62 thunderbird, etc. (note that's not to say that other countries didn't make good cars during that time period, just not as good.)  my friend has a 94 or so honda prelude, and with the right engine work etc it can do pretty well for itself, but it's a boring car. it has no soul to it. no real style. no sense of history behind it. and of course it sounds like a baby crying, as opposed the cars listed above, which sound something like if a bear and a tiger had sex and had offspring, and their offspring had sex with a tyrannosaurus. there's no "growl" in cars today. maybe a truck here or there, but it's generally boring and unimpressive.

The sound after the exaust note is not a supercharger, but a blow-off-valve from a turbocharged system. The exhaust sound followed by a loud hish is the charged system letting off pressure from the turbo.

Used 4cyl coupe - 3000-5000
turbo/SC kit+install - 5000
rims+tires - 1500
Paint + effects - $2500
exhaust + chips - $850
Nice stereo system - $2000
About $17,000 and you have a pretty sweet car that is rather fuel efficient and is pretty fast. This is why younger people like them.

That hiss is more than likely a turbo. It would continually hiss if it was supercharged.
Nothing beats this though

My 2000 zx3 cost about $4500, I love the engine of that year, 2.0 4cyl dohc VCT, After 2001 they put a shit engine in there. 
I've spent, let us see...
$4000 for 12psi intercooled SC + free install $1500 stereo $1500 rims+tires $800 exhaust + custom chip $7800, the car isn't like porche fast but it is certainly fun, it's rather fuel effecient and it's pretty enough that it gets lookers. 
I want to move up to a 350z some time soon, but for now at 24 years old this car is fine.

(oh and don't worry it's not loud as hell it has a cool rumble hehe)
