[Jezek]

Pretty nice bro...OEM lip kit pwns > all

 

[deftone]

looks pretty nice... itll look a lot better once its lowered

 

[aaren99]

sweet ride ! I like everything you've done so far...those side mirrors are hott

 

[Eran]

Ok, before I go into my rant, I want to say that your car looks really good, and even tho I hate your mirrors, your car actually pulls them off.

Now, for the rant:

It really bothers me how people for the most part drool over all the UK/Euro members because of what they've "done" to their cars. Not that the cars do not look nice, but the fact is, that your cars are so hot to us because the stuff you take for granted (your stock body styling) are things we pay out the ass to get and put onto our cars. Take your car for example. You roll an EK3, and thus you have the thin moulding, the front/rear bumper moulding, and the low-slope duckbill. These are all parts I want for my car, but I have to pay quite a bit for parts, shipping, and painting. So it really kinda irks me when people just absolutely cream themselves and give euro members such props for having a hot, clean ride, when in actuality, they haven't done as much as a lot of other people who don't get as much respect for their cars.

[chow]

nice car, quit crying Eran.

 

[quicksilver1689]

Eran your a b***h

 

[mienboiracer209]

not bad, and you're rocking 17's...

 

[J32a2OwnsU]

nice ride bro........

get a GSR swap instead....

 

[Eran]

how did I know I was gonna catch s**t for this, and nobody was gonna understand?

I already stated, I have no problem with his ride, it's really really nice, and I hope my car can have the same body stylings some day.

 

[potatobiker8]

i understand eran....it sucks cuz they buy the car like that...we buy the car without anything and have to pay double the actual cost plus shipping to get there stock quality

 

[JaPpEr]

HUH!!! No way man,.. UK/euro EK are totally not hot. We only get s**t-ass engines!! only 1.4 and 1.5 VTEC-E. A original dutch B16 is hard to get and here you have to pay about 13.000 USD for it (second hand). A lot of guys here buy imported engines and swap them. Also many of the guys buy Type-R or Duckbill spoilers because the stock ones suck!!
And about parts, your so wrong... You think you pay alot for it. the price you have to pay for it is half of what we pay because we have to pay a lot of taxes and import rights. For us it's cheaper to buy parts in the USA or Japan and ship it out here. For example for a buddyclub 2 kit we pay around 1600USD and we have to wait at least 4 months until we have it.
One last things you don't want to know what's we pay for 1 liter of gas (1.7 USD for a liter!!!)

Ojeah, almost forgot... I wish my car looks more like your cars. I'm trying to make it look like a "US/JDM" car with a little euro influence of course. For me your cars are a dream and I wish I could get the parts you guys have!!

Thanks for all the reply's!!!!!

See, that's exactly my point. You guys try to make your cars look like ours, and we try to make ours look like yours

 

[JaPpEr]

looks like we live in the wrong parts of the world!

 

[Mask0rz]

Best thing to do:

find someone on this board in the US/Europe with the same colour of you car. Send the bumpers/lips/wings(or trade with performance products) to each other, and both of you will be a happy man!

Let me start: who wants to trade r-81 hatch stuff.... kinda difficult, there aint no oem r-81 hatch in the US

 

[JaPpEr]

I dont't want to get rid of my lip kit, only my duckbill. so if anyone is interrested let me know.
