just read some of your last couple of threads, you're going to start some controversy i can tell (i'm new, so i'm not sure if you don't so already). I agree with you with the rice factor though, but what do you consider rice? I'm going to do some small mods: stubby, tint, new shifter, audio upgrade. that isn't rice though is it? don't worry, i won't put any mazdaspeed stickers on my car unless i get some mazdaspeed products.

i dont think the stuff you listed above is rice. to me, rice is a wanna-be fast car, AKA massive nonfunctional downforce, massive lights/leds, fart cans, or overdone bodykits. there are more but thats just basic

haha, fart cans. never heard about that. what about an exhaust tip for appearance reasons? i've thought about it, but not sure...

what about this?

stay away from the tip huh? but it won't be anything that's over the top. just something subtle that may be a tad bigger. just for looks.

Rice:

Displaying things your car is not equipped with. I.E. fake rear disc brakes, VTEC sticker with no VTEC, fake intercooler, etc.

Nonfunctional mods: Huge aftermarket spoiler designed for a RWD car placed on a FWD car, Hood scoop for no reason, etc.

Trying to make your car look like something else: Z3 fenders, etc.

Pointless 'performance' mods: Loud muffler on a otherwise stock car, etc.

mine? lol look at yours!lol I was'nt talking about you, mine is not that huge. Anyway want to buy my ractive shift boot it will make my sig smaller and once I get those mods on my car I will remove the part that says (on the way) and it will just be the animation and I might consider getting rid of it but it looks too kick ass.

haha, that's not my sig. that's the uber popular icy hot stuntaz.

your mazda3 already has a muffler tip that looks nice enough, mainly i think rice is the wasted of money on a upgrade that did nothing. i mean simply things like a msp body or some interior stuff is fine, but LIGHTS! i just HATE the leds being everywhere, they look like a goddamn christmas tree at nightstay away from the tip huh? but it won't be anything that's over the top. just something subtle that may be a tad bigger. just for looks.

dannyboy
04-28-2004, 07:54 PM
i won't get stickers, don't worry. i do like the stock tip, but figured maybe it would look a bit better if it was a tad bigger. not huge or anything, just a tad. as for the wheels, i love them. i'm coming off of a 2001 accord and these wheels look amazing (break dust aside). the pedals piss me off because they're close together, but other than that, i love this car and offically addicted to this message board.

Just remember - clean, subtle. 3's have a European inspired look anyway, so why fuck with the classiness?

If we happen to glance at their ugly asses, ricers think we're noticing how nice their rides are when really we're just laughing at them - - stupid bitches.

jersey emt has the true meaning of the word rice, now adays kids use it to just basically mean anything they dont like. and if thats the case no matter what u do your car will be rice becsause there will always be someone out there who doesnt like what you do.

my suggestion. build the car the way you like it and don't worry about anyone else.

what i'm saying if you picked 20 people and told them to wright down on paper what they think is rice....chances are the 1st list is what majority would come to agrement on. people are into making the car look faster over it actually being faster in todays society....people spent enough money on bodykits and wings and systems and 20 tv's in a 5 seater to have dropped the actual Type R engine that they have badges for on the side of the car and then turbo it...$250,000,000 is a tally spent on aftermarket parts to fix cars up...most is rims and kits then systems then engine parts...all I say is balance it out...The list of items I mentioned in the lower half of my other post are basic thinks that will keep you off "most" peoples rice radar if done right. Rice is a age group or society standard set buy what a group of people assume is not tastefull. so depending on where you live having a car with XYZ mods is rice but another community it's the shit...he true text book term for rice is not set in stone so people loooosely throw it out for anything they personally don't like. My only petpieve is doing half a mod and....never finnishing it. don't botherputting type R decals on if you havn't even botered to remove the DX emblem!!!! People sit down and see fast and the furious collections and thing every part made 10 hp from green neons to lowering....all I ask is look before you leap cause some things just don't make scense at all...

aww how cute a thread with my name in it

putting stuff that looks out of place on a car isnt exactly rie btu it just looks stupid

its pretty much having something on your car so people think its something else
like cutting your springs and just slapping on a filter and putting chrome rims ( that are heavy as fuck) on a car with onyl 160hp and putting mazdaspeed stickers on it, it defeats the whole purpose

its acting liek you have something when you really dont, i dont give a fuck if its temp. or not

This whole topic is retarded. Telling someone not to put 20 inch chrome rims on a car because its Rice and its gonnna make the car heavier is stupid. Its just like telling some one not to get a turbo because it will void the warranty. People do what they do dont put them down just cus you chose a difrent path (notcool)

Yes it is diffrent but its the same principle. to some people it seems stupid to buy a turbo and forfeit 5 years of warranty. not to me thas for sure i want that turbo as soon as its out. to some people it sounds stupid to put 20 inch chrome wheels on a car just to make it look good when you sacrifice performance by adding weight. See the way i see it just let people do what there gonna do without critizing.. performance and looks is the way to go fow show

calling somebody rice is lame... you drive a japanese car, thats rice in a lot of people's book... if people want to spend money on a 12" muffler or a couple of stickers, tell them its looks fucking lame, not that they're "rice." That word is for teenies... (sorry if youre a teenie)

P.S. Dub Sprewells are the shit... they dont help performance, but looks matter... if you think its dumb to put goodlooking stuff on your car, then youre a fuckin hypocrite... go buy an old vw rabbit, drop a new engine and some turbos, and go spank some mazdas. i bought my car b/c i like the way it looks, and there isnt anything wrong with liking bling bling rims. So you lost a few horsies, I dont give a shit...
