that's not rice, it's Pro Street. Except, unlike most Pro Streeters, it can actually do a quarter in under 16 seconds

AW MAN why did they have to go 3-rotor??? Yuck...

Man that would be a hardass fit a 20b in a first gen. Too bad the picture wasnt better so I could see how close that **** is to the front

But when you got go, you can have anything you want. Chrome mirrors, pink liscense plate, stupid fuzzy steering wheel covers ... LOL Awesome.

@peejay why did you say 'why it have to be a 20b?' at least it wasnt a nasty v8

EDIT: Damn holy **** , look how much they cut the firewall Thats a shitload of work

It's a lot better than the stupid stickers some people stick all over their cars.

Rice is those VTECH stickers that cover the lower half of the windsheild. YES! I said lower.

Rice is a body kit with stock exhaust.

Rice is looking faster than you actually are.

You are obviously very comfortable with were you stand in this discussion. Rock On!

when you move that fast, you can have your car look how ever you want. you could even paint it bright pink, or have it look all rusted out, and there is nothing that anyone could say.

btw, i think it looks awsome too.

I liked GASNGO more before it was airbrushed. it looked better when it was just yellow. on another note, i can't believe pacman did an 8.020 @ 174.1mph!!! it's unheard of! everyone is building S6 RX-7's to get into the 7 second bracket and here's Pac almost doing it in an early 70's brick!!! GO PAC!
