[kimona]

Sorry to start this new thread, but I don't understand what you guys are talking about when you say looks "rice" or looks "too rice" or "rice on, rice off"... What's it all about?

And, what does "lol" mean?

OMFG, Yaris Revenge! My eyes, my eyes! Make the rice stop!!! :barf:

[Nigal]

I love how they have the hood mounted tach facing forward, away from the driver! LOL!

[Yaris Revenge]

Take comfort in the fact that they did this as a joke. A real ricer wouldn't name his car the "Poser-Mobile" like that... he'd think it was really and truly the shiznit. :biggrin:

wikipedia.....not.

i lived in japan for several years. here is the truth. in the early 1980's, a maker of cosmetic enhancements for automobiles started a large ad campaign throughout japan. the billboards displayed cars with all types of cosmetic enhancements, and underneath the car was the caption.........."Got Rice?" in smaller letters in parenthesis under that was the following..(Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements)

soon, many cars owned by japanese youth were displaying all type of these cosmetic enhancements and it was not long after this phenomenon they began to be referred to as ricers. my fiancee's brother claims to have been one of the first known ricers.

id rather have a Yaris Vtec edition

[thatboyjer]

every once in awhile i goto the Ricekillers car meet. Some sort of car club and what not dedicated to performance/style and against rice. Seeing things w/ more than a rice cooker under the hood keeps me from slipping whenever i want to slap 30 billion stickers on my car.

[PETERPOOP]

that's a nice car if it didn't have tape holding up the bumper

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Despite the Silvia being overly used in the drift scene, I still like it. My favorite is the S14 (Kouki).

Oh, for some reason, that Silvia in that pic looks more like an RPS13 to me.

RICER: "Rye'sir"; noun

Term applied to those in the import tuning scene, often derisively, due to ongoing biases against FWD drivetrains and poorly modified import vehicles.

Used extensively by individuals who are under the impression that Mustang GTs ship with a factory supercharger (only the SVT Cobra does, and only since 2003) or that twin-turbo Supras ship with a supercharger.

any person who adds downforce to the rear end of a front wheel drive car in order to achive quicker acceleration
Anyone (usually under 25) who drives a fwd 4 cylinder and thinks that stickers add horsepower.
Person who has little to no respect for muscle cars but can respect imports that can't even break the tires loose.
A person, usually in their teens, who takes imports, usually from Asia, and puts all kinds of "modifications" on it. In actuallity, they are just making it look faster.

Most often seen on early dirt bikes with two-cycle engines. The hoser would modify the expansion chamber for more noise wrecking the torque curve and pissing off the neighbors with the ultrasonic hash noise.

[pinoypizzaboy]

here is a perfectly good example:

VTEC= Very Tall Engine Coolant. 280 HP from a different coolant? Hook Me Up!!! My car could kill a jet with that. And then he went and said that the stamp was his name and the VTEC guys name, and it was super valuable and added 40 HP and made the whole car lighter... I'm gonna stop now.

Hey look! It's winking LOL:laugh:

IMO ricers are immature. They only want their cars to look cool. It's just a popularity contest.

If they really wanna push the limits on what their cars can do, they would be better off just building a sleeper followed by a dyno run and a few hot laps around the track
