# Crazy Eighty Eight : I'm I the only one that knows that rice is actually derogatory and subjective and not based on how a car looks as the term "rice" refers to Asian exported cars in America in relation to Asias biggest export "rice" ?

But I digress bring us a blast from the past make it as crazy and as offensive as possible all hail the "rice rocket".
I know that the term also refers to that, but the term "Rice" has evolved from it's previous meaning to what it is now. The car scene got more judging and having to build your car to what other people believe to be cool has lost the true essence of modifying your own car. It's why I love this era. People wanted to modify everything they could.
So blast from the past is coming.

Whether people like it or not I don't know but at the end of the day, it's my project.

Livery time.

So it's time for the "big reveal" kinda post.
Me and Lagano have been working on my 180 to get it finished and running properly.
So now is the final reveal.




I've been making this livery for a while now and got it printed at Art of Wheel with out in-house printer.
It's bright and stands out a lot but it's exactly what I was aiming for



The engine bay also got re-painted with a purple floral design-pattern thing. I love it so muucch.
oh yeah, the 1JZ is working fine too. The power is mental and the sound is to die for.

Impulse Purchases.

So yeah....
I bought a EJ2 Civic.
It has a SOHC D16 in ok condition and....
windows?
uhhm
I kinda want to aim it towards 2001 styling, like fast and furious, but I would probably get stabbed if I did sooo..idk





It cost V$1,450 which isn't bad I suppose.
No real problems, no rust either which is really good.

But that's it for now anyway, bah felicia
