Well, I have two hondas. I have a v6 accord with a completely after market suspension, exhaust and lightened pullies for going on trips, and taking my gf out.
I also have a 1988 crx with a jdm b16a, spoon ecu, 3" intake, 4-2-1 headers, exhuast, and complete suspension. Neither of these cars are great drag cars, although my crx has taken out 2 mustang GT's (stock ones) and a E36 M3 street racing from lights, but the crx should be good for auto-x as soon as I learn how to drive it well enough. Honestly, I have only had the swap for a couple months, and the car's capabilities on an auto-x track are beyond mine for now.

how do you figure a supra to be rice? just a bpu supra will break into the twelves so when your get your a$$ handed to you dont be suprised a 600+hp supra isnt a rarety
my question is you should had hit it at the light make him chase you down with the turbo @40 mph punch he was lickie his chops.....for now just throw on a 200 shot using a progessive set up and go get'em
or you can borrow my lil ole red wagon which has a lil ole s/c running 15 pounds

yea, most of you in this thread sound like idiots.
just because it is an import does not make it a "ricer". A ricer is someone who does cosmetic modifications ONLY and then claims that his car is faster because of it. www.ricecop.com

99drop, "rice" is a relative word, people can use rice any way they want, b/c its slang... a person can use rice any way he/she wants, theres no set defination for rice, to me imports are rice, beefed up imports are muscle rice

couldnt disagree more jeep...they arent made for the purpose that you seem to think every car should live up to.. which is being a earth shattering street machine. Some cars are made for the people who aren't concerned with that, and want a car that is fuel efficient, and easily maintainble.

droptop its not a negative connotation when it is RELATIVE, it can be used for anything... hence the defination for our "rice" is not defined therefore it is slang, which can be used any way... its simply our slang for imports, RICE

ya thats cool, but every1s different, i used to just view rice as parkbenches, fart cans, and R badges, clear tail's, with some riduculous body kit, and some stupid worthless decals, but now im used to just calling imports rice
