my newly remodeled svx - Page 4

Did anyone else notice his rear bumper sagging from right to left (left side being much worse)...Id have the place look at that and fix it..if you spent a couple grand doing all this...id want the bumper on right, just some words of advice.

I like the color, def eye catching, if the tires were as black as the rims it would look better, the wing...i think a stainless wing would have been a wiser choice if you went that route...

Neon on a yellow car? Somehow that just doesn't sound right. If it was green or black or even red maybe, but not yellow.

Hey, if he is going to have a wing like that, might as well put in neons. Right?

>>>Finally i get to see an SVX with a nice shade of yellow. Beautiful paint man, one question, what did you pay for the paint job?<<<<
What ever it was it was too much!
Reminds me of a yellow cab. and the spoiler does just that......

Sorry, but it's just one man's opinion. Just like #ssholes, we all got one.

Dan,

What is that badge underneath the right taillight?

And, for me, it's not the height of the wing that ruins it - it's the way that it doesn't match up to the side of the car. Being mounted in the middle of the deck and inboard of the sides, it just looks out of place.

But that's just me.

Bwana · #52 03-27-2002, 05:15 PM

Dan, I didnt notice it the first time, but, did you paint the door handles black too? It may just be they were black to start, but if you did....they look good as well! They really look good contrasted against the brightness of the car. Now, if the roof was black, that would be even cooler! Bumped up my rating.

The paint costed about 4k. The badge on the car is a ricer badge. It says "Tenzo_R" . I got it with he the cold air intake I purchased and installed. The whole idea of the car was to make it more ricey. I know that is the thing that is hated here, but oh well, you ain't driving it and chances are you will never see it. I LIKE RICE.
I wanted a ricer and a muscle car. I painted the door handles to contrast the wheels, if the tires were cleaned well enough they would not have looked so faded. They are rather new toyo proxies. I just didn't clean them because I knew that my labor would not be appreciated. If you people want to jump someone about the spolier, go jump "sbkim", he started this spoiler insanity. I saw his and he said quote, "You either love it or you hate it." Well said sung bea kim! I also happened to come across that spolier very cheap so I decided to give it a go. well, that is enough from me. Please continue thrashing, I know you mus love it.

Danny,
I know this is not on topic (I'm trying to avoid it

) but, what ever happened to Amy and Jaylin? Are you still in touch? They just seemed to have disappeared. And I really do miss being called a Pr**k!

Dan,

I am hoping that you have deep pockets in your wallet or your daddy is really rich. If that is the case, share some wealth here dude.

Seriously, now that I know why you did it, I have to say it out. This is just my opinion and mine alone. If you want a rice car, why don't you just go get yourself a civic or a prelude. There are no hidden costs in tranny and parts are all over the place. Mod it all you want. If you don't want a CIVIC, get a Lancer. Put on EVO tags. WRX with STi tags are cool too. SVX with an "R" badge is just plain wrong! The damn car looks great the way it came out of Italdesign. FHI screwed up a bit. Now we have a wing on it. Seriousely, dude, I senese that things as more of a drag than advantage to the SVX. You want a car that goes fast -- right?

Also, can you seriously see what's infront with that huge letters on the bottom of your windshield? It's a good thing you painted it yellow -- now people can see you and brake way in advance.

Some people are into speed, some are into sound, I guess people are into their own things and you do what you want to your car. It's yours.

But unless you are trying to impress some high school rice boys, the image of SVX can be eternally ruined. Those rice boys can do their CIVICs in 12seconds easy. Muscle cars can do 10s and 11s. What is the SVX going to pull? 15s? That's a couple of car lengths dude. People will laugh at you. Please don't race the SVX. All show no go is ok with that much already done to the car. If you race the SVX and lose to a CIVIC, I'd start crying.

Just my thoughts.

Lwin the (_o_)

ps. I don't hate ricers or rice cars. Some are nice and others are just wrong. You rice a civic or eclipse. You don't rice a porche or a DB7. 3000GTs and Supras can be on boder line depending on what is done to the car.

What Professor Maung said.

Bwana · #57 03-28-2002, 06:34 AM

Uhm...Lwin, did you just say a riced Eclipse was cool? Hrm, next time we meet im gonna have you kick you....

ECLIPSES ARE NEVER COOL!!!

"If you want a rice car, why don't you just go get yourself a civic or a prelude."

First let me say that I have never had a father, so saying that money as far as family goes is just wrong. I happen to be well educated and make damn good money in the comm/comp industry. Also, I have had my svx for quite some time now, I kept it stock for the longest time and then got bored. I added an intake, a complete new exhaust and that Zex nitrous system so let's just say that as far as "no go" is concerned, well it doesn't apply here. I do not run this car at the track, it is simply my everyday driver. I am growing quite tired of yours and everyone elses negativity and constant opinions. One opinion is enough, a new one every other day is a little much. I knew that people would not like it AND I DO NOT CARE. (Read that last line again if you have any questions.) I do all these mods because simply put, my current financial situation allows me to. There I have said my part. And thanks for the info about the parking lights.

Secondly, I see Amy everyday, but I never talk to Jaylin. Amy has spoken to her once or twice. If you would like Randy, I could call you a prick although it probably wouldn't be the same now would it?

Adios,

Danny

Uh, sorry, Dan - but you asked for it. You came to model-specific car site where the majority of the members keep their cars pretty much stock, and asked:

"What do you think?"

You got what you asked for - opinions. If you don't WANT those opinions, don't ask.

As for 'one opinion is enough,' you don't get to make that determination. You can't come here, ask us our opinion, and then expect us to hold our tongues (or fingers) because, 'oh, his pre-set opinion limit has been reached.'

So buck up and deal, camper. Don't let the opinions you asked for ruin your day.

You asked for it, I gave it.

I will be there to help you out with the car in all aspects. If you don't want the opinion, you should not have asked for it. You can show it. There are some other SVXes in there network that we do not openly (like you say) trash in the message board. Why? Because the owners do not say "please continue trashing." Just a thought.
