Good call on the gunmetal spinners, I DO mean business.

I"m thinkin CRAZY tint, that green slime looking stuff with a metallic sheen.

You guys prolly think I'm crazy but I'm pretty well known in the import tuner scene. I am a mastermind of mods. Here's a pic of my last car:

You wouldn't believe how many heads I turned with this thing!!! :wink:

C'mon am I the only one who caught this... your turbo scoop is on the wrong side! Noone is ever going to fall for that. And just for extra stance turn it around. All that air in your engine bay will get sucked out with all the forces that your car will be facing at the extreme speeds your going to be doing with that "pimpmobile".

I believe the intake in that car is smack dab in the middle. But that is the belt side of the motor. So... if you're building a sweet car like that, its probably a supercharger, because those are super.

I have since then sold the car to some kid lookin for a really sweet ride. That was my LuminaR.

I'm thinking that you guys should be part of my "Type R & D" team. Imagine rollin with at least TEN of these babies.

You should also take note the decal underneath the passenger side mirror that points in the direction of travel, always. This kind of bod y work you can't teach.... so I've been told :)

i understand that you guys just hate the Honda boys ... but do remember , the Type-R idea was from MAZDA ...
1994 MAZDA Lantis Type-R ... look it up :)
just one more thing to hate Honda ... they steal Type-R, 4WS ... i mean come on, even the Vtec system is a mechanical VRIS ... and since it's mchanical, it feels a lot more cool ... jsus

It's not the actual technology that I'm making fun of... it is mainly the "type-R" poseurs (or the "all show and no go" rides). Even more specific, the people that will buy cheap stick ons, or huge guages, decals, or just-for-looks parts and seem to think that because their car looks fast, that it actually is. True mechanics and those who do their own craftsmanship wouldn't be offended by this. I mention this because I have the stock K8 that I rebuilt and I know its not fast, but I also don't pretend it is by putting ridiculous decals and such.

MOST importantly, this is only a joke :D :lol: As you can see from the responses, people are laughing. You're MX-3 looks very nice by the way OutlaW! Awesome job!

Why don't people build cars to the nads AND make them look like rice? so.. fast rice. Its either sleepers, or nice fast, or ugly slow. No ugly fast.

I'd rather have a sleeper :) Don't touch the engine bay, hide the turbo(s) out back. Make your IC look like a rad... sleeper even with hood popped :) Maybe some subtle outside things, but not a kit. I really like that idea....

^LOL. Make sure you get a quite exhaust too. I would def. jazz up the interior though, because it seriously needs it. You should do the sleeper on a 4banger people would REALLY be confused! Mazda power FTW. Nah man my car was this fast stock.
