Unhappy Showed but didn't shine! The Day after HIN!!!

For all the mitsubishi lovers out there, i am just like one of ur guys. I love my Mitsu's even i got no trophy or reward, i still love them!

The show is ended, i was there waiting for a trophy, yeah! Years of hard earned money and lots of work, all i want just a plastic Trophy, sounds silly? i mean i think my evo worth one, but .....
U either join some big name team or u get sponsed, otherwise, don't even try! NCCA judge really don't think much about local enthusiast i guess. they can give 20 trophys to a big team, 5 trophys to one people. but they don't even care if nobody know u! those guys got enough trophy in their garage, what's the point??they win at boston, they win at next show too, they always win wherever they go!!! i know ur cars r awesome, but at least give someone else a chance!
I feel so bad.... i almost cried, 6 years of building the 92 3000GT but i can't even get in the show room cuz some ******* took my spot(HIN promised to save for me). Max out all my credit card to rush build a evo9 but not even a plastic trophy......well guess i am not good enough!!! or maybe is HIN!

Let me show my babys here, and hopefully, they will shine a little bit!

your cars are sick. Who cares whateveryone else thinks? thats why different comapnys make different parts becasue everyone has theor own opinion. If your trying to impress someone go spend all your money on a ferarri and have no self gratatude and respect for what youve accomplished. Modding your car should make you feel good not trying to make the judges feel good. People that spend all their money, time, and effort just to impress a judge(some of the parts they might not even like..but it wins points) is retarded. Mod if how you like...and if it doesnt meet someone elses standards...OH WELL>. Keep modding to make yourelf happy. HIN comes down to ONE THING- WHO CAN SPEND THE MOST MONEY. trust me.

i like the 3000gt more than the evo. just to many stickers on the side.

the rims, eyelids and the canards on the evo don't mix well on the style. and it needs to be dropped.

love the JDM lights, skirts and most of all the rear diffuser! black is sexy!

Nice rides. I can tell you have put a ton of work (and money) into those cars. Looks like you chose some high quality parts too. Two suggestions on the Evo though.... Clean up the wiring in the engine bay and lower the car if you haven't already. Most show cars are totally slammed. Beautiful cars though. Kudos.

evo looks lightly modded so no surprise there

why max out your credit cards for a stupid trophy

the reality is, is doesn't matter what anyone but you thinks of the car

and until you realize that you are just wasting your time

Is that really a boost gauge in the 3000gt? Because if so can you please point out to me where the turbo is at in that thing? Just put a AEM Truboost in my buddies and two weeks before that a profec b both in VR4s and umm the turbos are small but not to small to see.

Cars look good by the way since looks are the route your going, but the boost gauge with no actual boost kills me. Ultimate ricer mod in my book.

Your cars are way too clean and good looking to win at a show.

You need some candy paint, fiberglass dash, tv's in the headrests, fishtanks, basically pimp my ride sh*t.

Fast, clean looking cars dont win trophies. Slow, riced out cars do. You should be glad you didn't win.

*edit*

Unless you do infact have a boost gauge and no boost. In that case I wouldn't vote for you either.

Yeah your Evo definitely needs more bling before it wins any trophies. Compared to typical show cars, it looks kinda blah, but I'm willing to bet that your 3000GT would have taken trophies though. That thing is hawt.

Import car shows are gay. Take your cars to the race track where it matters. Use your cars for what they are made for. Is your 3000gt a VR4? I can't tell.
