what does RICE mean? [continued]

[Starex_Gold]

Show car kasi.

Anyway, yung mga may sticker ng Speedlab, Autoplus, K&N, etc. Tapos stock naman, yun isa pang ultimate rice

[[archie]]

starex gold, so ano gusto mo palabasin? maging lalaki ka tumira pare!

kung gusto supportahan yung mga shop nila... ano gagawin mo?

[jave]

You can be a show car without the over-pretentious graphics. But I guess some people have different tastes.

Besides, the only type of show cars that look good with flashy flaming designs for me are classic hotrods.

Iba ang "you put a sticker to support the shop" and "Pinagyayabang ko na modded ng mga shops na ito ang kotse ko! (Pero drop-in lang. Secret to ah?"

I think that's what SG is aiming for.

Yep. Kanya kanyang taste. Tsaka si Tito Art may sinusunod. hehehe

Lahat ng Juggernaut niya may flames sa hood at ultimate ICE.

Agreed. An example of this is Felix' older-gen white Mazda6. Very clean, dropped, 18 inch gunmetal rims, cosworth headers and other internal modifications. If I remember, naging show car na ito ng Speedlabs eh. I also like yun isang Honda City (current-generation) ng Speedlabs.. yun grill parang Kia Optima, normally I'd scoff at it, but the overall appearance and execution was very nice! Wala ako masabi

Relax lang, its only his opinion and hindi ikaw ang pinapatamaan nya... He hasn't even seen your car right? Its in general is what he is saying...

[olidotcom]

Just for your info. Tuner shops like speedlab also do general services like oil change, mechanical repairs, etc. Some people would like to promote the shop by putting a sticker of that shop's name on their car. There is nothing wrong with that.

The same with why some cars have stickers of shops like speedyfix or big bert's or other shops around.

I dont find it "ricey".

My Lancer EX had a speedlab sticker on it but it looked generally stock from the outside, I guess YOU would call it ricey without a second thought if you didn't know I owned that particular car.

I guess my ASX is also ricey because it's got a speedlab badge on it while still looking totally stock.

ahhh... ok. i get it. now i know how to classify a "rice" car. you have to consult the "masters" here first if they knew the owners of these rides. also, you have to agree with all their opinions or else they will gang up on you. nice!

[alwayz_yummy]

rice--any body parts that are non-functional and executed wrongly or out of place or order.... anything na di tama, rice un....

kaya ako, sleeper setup parin.... mas makaksindak un than having those multi-exhaust pipes, sampayan spoilers and ground-scraping body kits!

As "always yummy" above mentioned, most mods that are non-functional are would be considered "ricey". I would also consider body decals (like stripes, etc) on otherwise stock cars also ricey. Thrown into the mix would be stuff like out of place bodykits... example would be bodykits for the corolla used on the sentra.

Well, putting in a sticker or two from the shops you've been to is acceptable.

Pero pag tinadtad mo ng sticker yung kotse mo without actually having the parts installed on that, iba na rin yun dating. *That* is garlic rice.

It's probably these people that ruined the rep of those who have the innards to show that the stickers aren't just for show.

+100, and a sleeper car will almost always run circles around rice cars!

Amen to that sir.....sarap talaga mag basa at matuto dito.

Sometimes people forget (or gets carried away with the "flow") that "humility" in one's knowledge is just as important as anything else.

kaya nga ang kasabihan ng iba eh kung wala naman mawawala sa iyo eh pabayaan mo nalang sila kasi nag eenjoy sila sa kanilang mga ginagawa while kapag sila naman ang inapusta eh sobrang galit na galit :D

ika nga nila if you cannot afford to buy an expensive race car at bumili ka lang ng medyo ok na kotse at inayos mo eh rice na kaagad yun dahil hindi kayang tapatan ang takbo ng mga expensive sports cars nila :P

as if you can speed up more than 100kph here in metro manila.

good luck :P

Basta I classify a " rice car " by looking at it personally, if somethings too odd for me then I`d classify it as something rice. Brands may not vary, I can even classify a bimmer as a ricer if he has a humongous wing & an oversized kit while on the other hand I can classify an econobox as a good-looking car if it's neatly dressed.

Regarding the stickers it will depend. For example, a car with a TEIN badge but is rocking a 4x4 stance IS rice while a car that's sporting a speedlab badge isn't rice AS LONG AS the sticker isn't FAKE. If it is, then your guess is as good as mine.

Just remember, everything too much is bad. Moderation is the key. Doesn't mean that you've been to speedlab, meguiars, bb, speedyfix or what not, you'll place their free stickers at your backglass. Choose what looks best. Probably five to six stickers lined up in one pile is acceptable. But more that ten ? I`d think about it ...

I didn't know Speedlabs does general service din pala! Akala ko 100% tuning lang sila O_O
