    Just by lookin' at the exhaust I can tell that the previous owner was a ricer.
    Added a TT front bumper on a NA model - CHECK
    Removed the spolier(Guessing it had one at one point if not then fuck it) - CHECK
    Put on a piece of shit lookin' exhaust system - CHECK
    Is a slow piece of shit - CHECK

    Yup, totally a fucking ricer.

    Congrats on moving up though. From a front wheel drive to a rear wheel. Instead of wasting your money on a vg30dett swap I'd just focus on making it look nice. You will end up spending a ton of money on a swap that will bring you nothing but problems. Good luck and congrats once again.

    ETA: I hope you don't get butthurt by my post. You shouldn't. Be man and accept criticism no matter how harsh it is.

    Sorry to rain on your parade but the N/As never had spoilers, and that exhaust, although ricey looking, is the highest flowing exhaust they made for the 30ZX. I hate the way it looks too, but It's angled to reduce the ammount of bends, and although the HKS "potato shooters" (as they're called by the Z enthusiasts) look funny, they're 100% function and quite pricey (they also sound good). The TT bumper isn't so bad so give the guy a rest, that Z is far from rice and the previous owner wasn't really a ricer.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    Rain on my parade?

    Dude, don't think too highly of yourself. I don't care about what's rice or what's not. To me that exhaust looks riced the fuck out. If the NAs never had a spoiler than kewl. That's why I added to that. Didn't you noticed the "(blah blah if not then fuck it)?"

    And as for the "potato shooters" being 100% functional, that's fucking great! Does this guy have side mounts to put them to use? No he doesn't. They're being put to great use, right?! Pfft. If you don't like what I have to say about the car then just ignore my post. I have never given a guy "a rest" and don't plan to anytime soon.

    If they or you don't like it then you have no other choice but to deal with it.

    I'll deal with it, I was just pointing out those little things. We can agree to disagree, it's cool. I don't think highly of myself, so don't worry, but you need not get over defensive about your opinion either. We're all enthusiasts here.
