get a fucking life. it's a goddamn paint job and it looks like what it's supposed to replicate. so fucking what if it doesn't have an uber awesome high comp B series under the bonnet with ITB's and piles of unobtanium parts?
A moderator can delete this thread because nobody understands what I'm saying. Thanks.
Maybe you're doing a poor job at communicating it.
its actually rather nice minus the d-series. b is better but still a well done car
BAHAHAHAHAHAH!! +1!
Actually, being in the import tuning scene for as long as I have, I can argue both sides of this successfully.
What the n00b is saying (albeit in the wrong fashion) is that if you are going to go THAT far and spend THAT much on replicating a race car, why not go the full monty? Spoon has never had a boosted vehicle, and barely even makes D Series anything, so what on this car is actually Spoon besides the paint job? Does it have the Spoon Socks or something?
Actually, me being the old school elitest prick I am I do understand where the n00b is coming from and kinda agree with him in a way.
On the other hand, at least it doesn't have a big mooserack wing, Invader Spyder Super Deluxe version 21389 body kit, and neons everywhere. It could be a lot worse. It was tastefully done, but what actual Spoon parts does it have on it? An oil cap?

A car with F&F styling WOULD be worse, but thank you for not being an asshole and being the only one that responded who understands what I'm saying. All those stupid e-threats and harsh words were useless, this is just the internet. I wasn't talking smack about anyone here in a personal way, but everyone had to turn that around. I now know how most people here are, so I'm probably not gonna post anything here again.BAHAHAHAHAHAH!! +1!

It's sad that you people tell someone to kill themselves and call them "fucktards" just for submitting an opinion.

That's how you communicate your idea, that I understand. On a side note, I haven't seen you post a pic of your ride to show us what a real car should look like.BAHAHAHAHAHAH!! +1!

Then you haven't been looking hard enough. All three of my vehicles are posted on here in one place or another. Why does that matter? I wasn't talking shit about the "Spoon" car...just playing devil's advocate. It's their car, not mine.

it's not a hard concept, but if you don't understand it relax
i don't think the car is anything bad enough to flip shits over

i lost brain cells reading this post..
Maybe you should read what the poster (me) has said about the car, not only in the initial post, but through the whole thread. The thread isn't solely about how the car looks. But you wouldn't have known, because you probably didn't read what all I've said either, hmm?
i could give 2 shits what is under the hoodMaybe you should read what the poster (me) has said about the car, not only in the initial post, but through the whole thread.

and i was talking to ran kizama, not you, so back up a bit and take a breather

I instantly knew that you didn't care about what this thread was about just by looking at that pic of your car. You probably don't know shit about the car you drive.

how bout i just talk shit bout the car past 12 on IA

First of all there is love here for anyone who is intrested in import tuning !! But isnt building original japanese sports cars and using genuine parts what this passion and hobbie is all about? Its like in high school when Tommy Hilfiger was the "cool" thing to sport and do. But since you couldnt afford or even care for the real deal, you bought knock offs and what not. You become a person wearing fake goods, and just end up on a band wagon. Using fake parts, and building replicas is no different. If you dont get that warm fuzzy feeling from owning geniune performance parts from japan, and knowing your car truely is one of kind, then you truly are that nasty word. A trend rider lol. Just part of a fad that will die out. The overkilled, overplayed label: "JDM". That word has been thrown around like a worn out hooker. I feel its just down right dirty to see that "spoon CTR." on autotrader. The truth hurts. I guess to judge a car, as aweful as it sounds, just simply look at it and see if it says these words that sum up exactly japan's aftermarket tuners intnetions:FUNCTIONALITY and LEAN. The japansese style that people find so attractive doesnt even exist, when approaching motorsports, STYLE is not in the vocab. The style is a result of function. Looking past the FAKE wheels and stock intact interior leads to to beLIEve there is no way in hell this baby is rocking true spoon or even Type R blood running thru its chassis. IMO I would not even think twice about recreating someone else's masterpiece, well maybe if they gave permission and it was an EXACT replica. Now an exact replica of Spoons CTR, that would be cool. The owner should look into that. Maybe japanese tuners should somehow introduce copyright infringements on their property.<br> Ps. How the crap did that guy find a person/vinyl to replicate the exterior of the spoon ctr hahaha
camoismyfavc dude you know whats up
thats all spacelion has been trying to say this whole thread and everyone has been missing what he is saying
he hasn't said that it's a stupid rice paint job or anything like that
it's purely just about japanese motorsports and being true to the game
so lets take this thread down a notch
(and he is 20 years old not 17)
Hahahah yeah I hope SpaceLion does put dubs on his tricycle, knowing him personally they will most likely be Original Work Miester S1 (1 pieces with low offset none the less!!). And I assure you any japanese tuner will favor and appricaite that tricycle over any odd craetion of a automobile you could ever produce ooooooooooooo suck it!!:idb::idb::idb::idb::idb::idb::idb::idb:
yeah thanks, it was so hard to put into words how i feel , that after i typed that, i nearly calasped like will ferrel in OldSchool after he makes that speech lol. I say you, spacelion, me, and anyone else who breathes japanese motorsports get together and have option video,BMI,Hotversion nights or cruise sometime. The love of driving is what its all about.
COUNT IT!!!!!! To do the sc four hundred justice on a low budget all you need is 18-19" work equip(the vip style model, not 03s duhhhh), 5zigen border exhuast(4.0 V8 never soundt so gouddddd), and JIC VIP cilovers. And its not easier said then done, well within grasp.
ya dude that would be tight
last time i cruised with spacelion we found these beautiful roads out in like gainsville or something, it was dope as hell, and i havent gone with anyone but myself in a while.
OFF TOPIC BUT IVE SEEN TURBOED AND SUPERCHARGED TYPE R'S....Well there is a Type-R sticker on the sides, which is just as bad as GT-R + neons since this car is boosted.
Oh yeah there's a GT-R Sentra that I see often. I bet it has a inline 6 twinturbo stuffed away in the bay
FUCK B&D COMMUNICATIONS!
I just poured out an oz. of my 40 in memory of a car that would have had such great potential. Give it up for all the japanese cars deprived of their racing spirit, and take a moment of silence................................now after this being said, I am taking donations to start a business that will recycle japanese cars that owners had wronged over. Any denomanations will help.
What a waste of incredible engineering.
I agree. Why would you do that to a high strung fantastically engineered N/A engine? Do that shit to an LS or GSR. Not a Type R.
