Funny things RICErs say (radically immature car enthusiasts)

MrMelancholy15
On big red '80s Fords? :lol: I'm hoping to avoid parts over 70 lb., that's roughly what I lift 3-4x a day currently.

Naturally, then, rallying, with its emphasis on 15" wheels and tires, and lightweight parts has even more added benefits to my spinal comfort. Karting was bad for that.


I could go on and on about what people said about my go-kart, to get back on topic. My favourite comment "how long 'til you get that turbo?"

Dude, it's a high-compression Honda lawnmower motor. It's also a grenade. Even without turbos, these motors are prone to explosive catastrophic failures. The compression ratio is extremely high.

:lol:

Most parts aren't too heavy but you'd be surprised how heavy a lot of the parts are.


On the topic of compression and gas, I know quite a few cars with 10:1+ compression that run 87.
 
MrMelancholy15
Bopop, you've been out of karting for too long. They switched to 91 Octane.

Actually, we were there when they switched to 91.

It's nothing to do with performance, it's just because the 91 gas is more consistent for the gas readers. The was problems with the 87 because depending on which day you bought it, it might not match up with the club sample.

Heck, bikes run over 13:1+ on 91.

And the motors don't grenade unless you rev it 400 rpm past where it's floating the valves, then it just breaks a keeper and drops the valve in.

Brandon H. Or Adrian, split a motor open. I forget who it was, but the whole block split right open. Turbo'ing it would be a bad idea.

The best manuals are proper manuals, they're dead because manufacturers don't advertise it as well; who found the "Manual" option on the Ferrari configuration website?

The engines are only designed to run up to about 4 grand.
People push them to over 6500, so they occasionally blow up. It is very rare though.
 
Sorry about the quality, I was fiddling with the exposure and gamma options on my phone. The car is actually red, but, that doesn't really matter.

On-topic: anyone else tired of people associating muffler size with speed? I actually remember seeing a Kia or a Hyundai, with a muffler big enough that I actaully went up, and put my shoe in it. Dude, it's tooooooo big!

I find it funny that people do so when in in reality it's not how late it is but how well it flows. For performance reasons anyways. Too big a muffler can actually cause problems.

That's the point. If you can fit a size 12 shoe (US size, yes) inside a muffler, the muffler's too flipping big. :scared:

That's size 11 and a half in the UK, folks.

And that muffler is waaaaaaaaaaaaay too big!
 
A guy tried to tell me his friend has an AE86 corolla that has 3 chips in it so it has 200 bhp. Strange how my practically standard AE86 was just as fast as it.
 
Oh man, the craziness and ownage of the ricers!!! Hahahaha! :lol: Love the stories guys, but I'm gonna quote some of them.

TDZdave
Its not something ricers say, this is more something ricers do, putting a NISMO sticker on a Toyota or Mitsibishi, A ralliart sticker slightly larger then the rear window, on the rear window of a Daewoo Lanos,

the most unusual ricer I came across had a 70's Rover, put celica badges on it, and said it was an AE86, He came to the scarp yard I worked at with scrap metals for recycling, and would totally BS us about his rover,
One particular day I decided to test his stupidity, He brought in some assorted parts, from washing machines or fridge motors, I picked up a random object that looked like a random engine part from the assortment of recycling materials, and said
"Wait a minute bloke, this is rare, get it reconditioned at this carburetor repair place and install it to your fuel injection kit, 500 horses easy, they are illegal!"
Needless to say he never came back whilst I finished my employment there,

You really did own this guy. I mean, who do he thinks he's fooling? And the difference between a Rover and a AE86 is so obvious, a caveman can tell. I loved it when you told him that a appliance piece will give him 500 horses :lol:. I cant believe people are that guliable and stupid to fall for it. That guy needs a brain transplant as soon as possible. :facepalm:

My neighbor is a fanboy ricer from redneck hell. Claimed his Cavalier could beat anything on our block, including my motorcycle. Well one day last week we egged him on to do an e-brake burnout (because it's FF obviously) and quite expectedly the car didn't have enough power to get it done. Also quite expected, he did a decent job roasting the clutch. Kinda hard to be the fastest car on the block now, isn't it... :mischievous:
Click to expand...

Reminds me of that video that Melanchoy's was talking about on some previous pages about that wrecked Civic and the guy did a burnout with a huge dent inside the car and the rear wheels all out of alignment, trying to do a burnout. That video cracks me up. :lol:

And it begins once again....with a crappy Chevy FF piece of junk....:lol:

MrMelancholy15
Well, I'm going to college to be a mechanic in a month. I'm hoping there are no ricers in my class, but, if there are... :mischievous:

Anyways, my favourite thing, I think, is when someone freaked out about a car having a rollcage and window nets. I don't remember where or what it was, just someone freaked out "ZOMG rollcage Hax0rzzzz!!!!111!!!"

Yes, most purpose built cars have rollcages. 👍 this is a big deal because...?
Click to expand...

You and me both! I'm going to school for the same major as well. I'm also thinking about Automotive Mechanical Engineering as well, maybe on the side along with multimedia. 💡

But ever since I was a kid, I always loved cars and tuning them on GT and FM with the performance and creating monsters. Even the old NFS and MC3 and MCLA with the designing custom artwork [My cars aren't ricey looking, they look real nice, maybe something wild, but it's not that stupid ricer style.]

I always wanted to work on or designing on/with cars, next to creating games. But I can't wait to start soon, but I'm saving up and my family is in a tight bind unfortunately so, soon...:indiff::(

On topic, I can't believe that people go wild over a roll cage installed inside a car :lol:.

They are not fashion pieces nor for power. They help reniforce the pillars of a car and make the body stronger for a OSM (Oh 🤬 Moment) when the car flips over on it's roof or adding more strength to the car's body in a collision. I wonder what a ricer would say if they saw a GT3 RS or a 302 Laguna Seca's roll cage/roll bars. Heck, I would laugh my butt off if they said "ZOmG, That Hondata gotZ more POWAR from the JDM as 🤬 roll cage homie biscuitz!" But the Integra's has it since it's for the track. :lol:

What're you saying about my feet? :P :lol:

Anyways, pretty much this. New rule in muffler sizing: It shall not be able to hold a size 12 shoe.
Click to expand...

I know what you mean... And I wear 12.5-13 size shoes too! :P

But I'll try to do this whenever I meet a ricer or see a stupid large muffler or fartcan again.

Wait, WHAT?!? This...I don't even....:facepalm:

I feel sorry for the AE being with a complete moron. What car has three ECUs in their engines? :lol:
 
^ Not when the mufflers were/are hot, though, right? Like, you know, not burning your foot, right?


Other than that, go ahead. ;)

Plenty of morons own them over here unfortunately, they think they are gods gift to driving because they can pull off an uncontrolled donut, swinging the ass of the car wildly in a car park.

They all copy each other and put the exact same wheels and exhaust on every one, I'm talking country wide here and it's so common I used to think they were the standard wheels when I was a kid. Many people here don't have much imagination when it comes to car styling and to make it worse they get Japanese imports and change all the parts to make them look like an Irish one.

But yeah this guy really thought you could just keep adding chips and it would keep increasing the power. Another guy with a WRX impreza thought it was 500 hp because he had an uprated exhaust, intercooler, dump valve and intake. Yes he thought the dump valve added about 50 hp.

I see what you did there. ;)

But noooo! Only when the muffler is cool or the car been off for a long time. I'm not burnin' anything. :lol:

Ummmm....ok?

That's one wild story right there dude. And I think this guy need to understand that a small upgrade docent net you 500hp in a second, to do that in a WRX you need to rebuild the boxer engine with stronger parts so it can take the power over 500, even though boxer engines are strong and can take the power in their stock form. And he's in a WRX, they have weaker transmissions..... Someone, please take that poor WRX from this retard ASAP!!!

You deserve the WRX eight6 by a long shot. 👍

Edit:

Watch this video.....:lol::facepalm:

Had my friend (he is a serious RICEr "If I get a C30, I'll get it black with white wheels and red badges. I'll also get carbon fibre wrap and ill slam it." "It's a Volvo. Leave it be.") say "If I was to have any car it'd be my mates 1000bhp FTO. It goes 0-60 in 2.3 seconds." When A). It's always on terrible tyres, so would just pop them B). It has a stock gearbox and C). Is front wheel drive.

It also apparently gets round the Ring in 7:31. When I ask who was driving, he was saying he was.

Hahaha were they drunk?

Here's a pic of some ae86 from Ireland, maybe it's not rice, but it is a bit stupid when nearly everyone puts the exact same wheels on a car.

Damn, he forgot to ask him if that came with the 2.9amp flux capacitor!
Seriously though, he should have his car impounded for flagrant stupity, and maybe be tried for treason, for goodness sake it's a mustang! How do you get that ignorant? Also huge kudos to the camera man for keeping a strait face!

"Nothing is funnier than hearing someone lie, when you know the truth."-someone-I-cant-remember-the-name-of-.
 
Well, this is a car I saw at a car show a year ago. This kia I think you guys will find a bit ricey.

KiaPretendingtobeaford_zps68945493.jpg


I should've took a picture of the back, it had all sorts of Ford related badges on it. Note the 5.0 badge on the side. There was an Interceptor and SVT badge on the back.
 
I was going to ask what was wrong with the Kia, but SVT badges? :lol:

I saw a Prelude that had a clean bodykit, but it looked a bit like an R33. It had those chrome tailights though. :rolleyes:
 
Lol at the Kia.

I was waiting for the gtr mustang camera man to mention vtec. That would top it off right there. But he did finish with a piston rotary haha.
