I put a 350 in my 85 GT. Alot of people use the northstar because you can use the stock manual Fiero transmission but you have to have a custom clutch/flywheel made.

so my wife is a fan of this thread and she takes pleasure is supplying me photos that are appropriate. I apologize on her behalf that I do not have a photo but she just called me and told me a RX8 passed her and on the read DS quarter panel they covered up damage with a flame job (no flames anywhere else on the car mind you). Just thought that was worth sharing

Holy eff.

That tire looks like a Power Wheels plastic tire.

Absolutely ridiculous! I can't stand when I see a ricer RX8, I die a little bit inside.

And how do you know it's a ricer RX8? For all you know it could see the track every day.

EmperorBen

yeah, that one came up a few times, but it honestly doesn't even look that bad. If it were a pure street car it would be kinda ridiculous.

[quote=Blue_05;4297913]There's modding, and then there's ricing. Guess which this is.

^^^Ummm What??? RE Amemiya rear skirts, FEED(gen 1) Sides, and a GT sing, Im guessing from the bone stock looking 8 in your avatar you knot know quality parts when you see them jus sayin...

PlasticPi

They might be quality parts, but I'm still on the side of the fence saying this is not a race car. Nothing else about that car indicates that it needs a spoiler like that.

And how would you know that car is not tracked?

call me crazy but I also see a carbon roof on that pic. Could be vinyl ... but if he could afford the wing and other mods...

PlasticPi

Even if it is, it's still a street car, hence the license plate. You really think that much spoiler is really necessary for anything other than a purpose-built race car?

I'd call it rice. It's far too tall to be functional and if the car had the 200+whp more than stock to generate the speed for it to function, it would buckle the trunk. Look at the spacers between the risers and the deck lid.

Even if he tracks it twice a month it's necessary. Just because it's registered that doesn't mean ****. There are plenty of street driven "race cars".

Why don't you just say you hate the way it looks rather than calling it ricey or saying it is unnecessary? One could argue that any performance mod on the street is unecessary.


Anyway,

I took these two over the weekend

nice lift on the ferrari

I'll say it.

That wing looks ******* retarded.

Even if the car sees the track every day, it's not needed, and he'd get laughed at there too.

It's a Time Attack car yo'. You need mad downforce to do that ****.

Why are you guys bashing Plastic? I agree with him, it's rice. Who gives a **** how much parts cost. Expensive parts do not equal RACECAR.

It's only rice if it's not used. IF the car is tracked then it's functional and therefore not rice. I do agree that it looks like **** though.
