The KP61 toyota starlet has to be mine. Weighs in under 2000lbs and is rwd. Nothing looks better then a car doing what it does best.

I guess all those Ricers never learned the K.I.S.S. rule, KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID!. My electronics teacher always used to tell us that when ever we built circuits more complicated then they should have been.

The green Civic is in one of my old Super Street magazines(what happened there?). Its a nice example of JDM simplisity. He has a Type R block with a GSR head. Its supposed to push out 200 hp at the crank.

I couldn't agree more with that. If you have the equipment and know that it can kick ass, why advertise? It's more fun seeing the other driver's face after you have shelacked him. It would look something like :huh:

Let's hope you weren't the one taking the pic. Remember what they told you in driver's education class: Keep both hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road ahead of you. :lol

Everyone has their style. I like stickers and graphics, as long as it isn't tacky (read: ALL OVER THE FRIGGIN CAR). I have only a handful of stix on my car, but only on the rear quarter, all for parts I have. Either way, my viewpoint is 'To each their own'... it's your car, do what you like to it.

Those are nice rides, BTW :)

I don't like those civic hatchbacks, to me they look like alien cars.....but I must admit that last red one is tight as hell. sure there is probably no point to the hood, but it is original and that is one of the coolest things about it IMO.

I tend to agree with that statement. It doesn't fall into the K.I.S.S. catagory.

difinetly not K.I.S.S. more like S.K.I.S (Simple Keep It Stupid)

The front of that new "thing" reminds me of a dodge truck. I think we should dub that the "cram air" modle civic.

I agree, I don't like to advertise whats on my ride or under the hood, I know whats in my car and I don't want others to...I wish to let others guess as I pass them by in a streak of brown(color of my car).

That's why I like the term "sleeper."

I don't want to knock people who do that(put stickers on and stuff), but to each his/her own.

Speaking of Civics, and friend of mine who helped me with a motor swap this past weekend, has a silver civic with an H22 in it, wish I had pics, cuz you wouldn't know it cuz he doesn't advertise what in his ride, again I refer back to the term, "sleeper?"

one thing that you have to remember is that a lot of these guys get sponsored.... free tires if you put Yokohoma on a 6x18 inch decal on your door... or disocunted parts if you put a 3x8in decal of our suppy shop on your hood.... come on how do you think most of these guys get these high quality performance parts....? Sure a lot of them do it the old fasion way but would you rather have your dream car w/ decals or your normal car that's clean??? I guess it's to each his/her own.....

I guess if someone were to sponsor me, I probably would put decals on my car, but since that ain't happening, I ain't.
