Default you get rice burners, and you get RICEBURNERS

The term rice burner or rice car can mean different things, based on the context of its use: * Most of the time it refers to automobiles (usually low-cost factory standard) that have the appearance of a customized / high performance car, but possibly with little or no functional modifications, such as improved engine, suspension or brakes. This is the most common use of the phrase and is the one the rest of this article deals with.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_burner

sorry for low quality, was taken with the mobile

It would sound like they've eaten 30 cans of baked beans and 2 dozen fried eggs.

Maybe with a nice exhaust, but definately not with cannons. There's an WRX just down the road from me that is riced to the max. It sounds awful due to the cannon exhaust and the fully-sik blowoff valve.

As far as i'm concerned a "rice burner" is any asian car that some young kid is driving, usually with mods, functional or not and wanting to race you.

It does not include corollas etc.

Alot of jap cars are suited to body kits and big exshausts it's only when the apperance of speed of the car isn't any where near close to it's actual performance of it.

I love the WRX numberplate. Sure enough you have a boxer engine.

Perhaps an ex rexy owner than needed more room?

[QUOTE=ea_silver_ghia]It would sound like they've eaten 30 cans of baked beans and 2 dozen fried eggs.

Baked beans don't make me fart.

Eggs, IF you fart, make them stink.

I recommend eating broccoli, as well as Stagg Chilli. That stuff gives you power-packed reekers for a long time.

A bit off topic. Sorry about that. py:

yuk...

I've seen in Broadmeadows (suprised??) A white mercedes Vito van... Riced...

Cannon exhaust, plastic looking chrome wheels, superdark tints, dumped, shoping list down the side.... and to top it all off, a big friggen spoiler on top of the thing...

Maybe one day when i stop spending money on my car and buy a camera phone, i'll get some pics of the crap crusing around my area...
