Wow. First of all how do you consider it rice when he is going to put tons of money/hours into it. That means he is going to do it correctly and make sure it functions, unlike the idiots who take 5 minutes to build a wing or install an exhaust so fast and it just hangs off the car. Next, you think rice is considered when you add somthing that gives no performance? You have an alpine head unit from what i've seen in your user profile, that makes you a ricer aswell. What was wrong witht he stock headunit, why'd you upgrade? You stupid ricer. I guess everyone with rims, JDM tails, or body kits are all ricers. Consider me a ricer for my powdercoated wheels and my JDM tails. Moron

Read the part in bold very very carefully. I'm not hating, I'm giving my opinion, and even stating if it makes him happy that's all that matters. Reading comprehension?

Maybe because it's a pointless conversion?

Stock head unit doesn't have jacks for an amp, and yes, the performance and quality of my music drastically improved. I fail to see the relation.

Yeah, I think people that swap the 17x8 rims for something tall and skinnier are pretty ricey. The JDM tails are great, because the altezzas that come stock look too flashey for some people. My buddy doesn't even have the evo wing on his car anymore.

Moron.
Your retort was weak like ukraine~

Pointless conversion in who's mind? Why did you need an amp? More money that doesn't enhance performance, ricer. Also 17x8 wheels are not taller or skinnier than the stock size, so if you have stock wheels you are a ricer. Basically making anyone who owns an evolution a ricer.

Did I say that you swapped the wheels? Maybe if you'd passed the third grade and learned to read you could understand my statement. I made the comment due to the fact that I see people swap rims, and have found that many of the rims that are swapped (or atleast the used ones being sold on these forums) are 17x7.5.

Why did I need an amp? Well I like the sound of a single 12 with a small 200 watt amp. It's a small box, but whatever, you must be right, I'm a ricer!!

I'll continue being a ricer, you continue being illiterate.

Oh btw, the amp/sub enhances the performance of my stereo, just an FYI.

I didn't say I swapped wheels either idiot so I have no idea where you got that idea from You need to learn to read, i'm just fine. You never said 17x7.5 before you said 17x8. The RHD conversion might enchance his driving experience therefore it wouldn't be rice for him, as for an amp/sub enhances the performance of your stereo.

Let me spell it out for you window licker, and if you don't understand it this time, I might have to write it on your helmet with a sharpie marker.

I never refered to a particular person. It was a blanket statement, can you stop drooling on your care taker long enough to understand that Corkey?
