    Ricers are much different then true import enthusiasts. Ricers make poor Honda/acura cars look like total crap

    so the car doesnt look like you grabbed parts out of a bargain bin of used parts from random cars and slapped em together?


    having a carbon fiber un painted hood, on a white car, is like putting an amd cpu in an intel board.

    How is it like that? The hood adds no functionality. A Vapochill does.

    A Carbon fiber hood is not to a car as a vapochill is to a computer.

    Its like putting a green side panel on a red computer. :p

    I Own an Mitsubishi Lancer from ´97 with 75PS, nothing special


    But here we go
    I´ve got one Problem, the engine is too big






    Wheels for 30 bucks







    How you see, ich have to rebuild the chassis









    Its a Kawasaki GPX 750 r engine with 106PS, its from ´88 and should go nearly 160mph, but i won´t drive that fast, this would be a suicide ride for real


    PS: Sorry for my bad english, i can´t really write it, but i can read and understand it , so long......

    a CF hood is lighter and areodynamicly correct unlike having no hood(wind resistance) coef. drag ever heard of it? so it helps the car perform better the same way a vapo does with a cpu. they are both tools. so yes they are the same. how it looks and how it functions are 2 totaly different arguments.

    ok you are just a moron. its not like putting amd in an intel board because u can put a CF hood on a white car yes it is possible we have all seen pictures and it works very well.(still functions)you cant make an intel board function with an amd chip. i dont even think you can paint CF because you would have to sand it and that would ruin the top protective coating. so now you have just shown your ignorance on cars and computers.
