![]() Ricers = bad. You're going to the penatly box #4. None of this simpathy for their kind crap.
Two things about your night. 1. Integra Type R's were available in yellow. Graphite wheel, and a fairly tall spoiler. This was the second run of the factory type R. 2. These guys were not 'ricers'. Sure they are confused about what is cool, but people who actually know about cars and quote real times are not rice. They are misguided souls. I used to be one of them with my 944 and 240z. They will eventually come around to the 'no substitute for cubic inches' idea. Sounds like a fun night.

![]() Deuce hit it right on the money. These guys you were talking to are not ricers just because they drive an import. These guys sound like they are very knowledgable in cars they just picked a different kind of car than us.
A turbo ITR is a very respectable car in my book by the way ![]() Later, Nick

![]() Yup I do agree, ricers are more the less people who sticker up there car. We were sitting around the cars debating who would win, weight, tourque and stuff, then he's like your car is brighter yellow and I replied but you got Type R badging and we all had a good laugh, it had no fart tipe. I'd say only like a 3 inch single exhaust that didn't look overkill, and another civic went by when he left and you could also hear the Turbo. There were alot of fast cars out on the road tonight.

![]() What I was gonna say has already been said, I wouldn't call those guys ricers. Heck, there was a guy on my old route that had a BMW with a spoiler that was taller than the hood line... I'd call that rice(even though its a german car).
Deuce, tell me.. do those 240s handle as well as I heard they do?? I rode in a 300zx and we took a 35mph on-ramp at 80!! I wouldn't try that in my car. |

![]() Oh, I was thinking about a 280 not a 240. I have read articles about small block transplants into those old 240s. Those cars are cool in my book.

![]() I drove a brand new 240 Z back in '71 (I think). It was a nice car when there weren't many being made. The Z wasn't really very fast but handled OK for the times. The one I drove was automatic though, so that sort of killed the "sports car" appeal. I'm pretty sure I could have stomped it in my '71 Fiat 124 Sports Coupe.

![]() "hood line", crap! I meant roof line.
I remember the XR4Ti, it had the exact same engine my 85 XR7 had. I think the XR7 looked better though. ![]() |
