Stock cars look absolutely perfect 100% of the time but these “tuners” or “jdm fans” or whatever you want to call them absolutely destroy them every single time without fail. There is zero modded car that looks better than stock
Did you just find this out
I agree with you. I've driven only "golden era" tuner cars (and two manual wranglers) in the 20-some years I've been driving.I kept em all stock appearancewise except for debadges and exhausts. I will continue to do so. I have no intentions of doing more than sway bars and an intake to the 99 I just got.I have been disgusted by what tuners did to these cars, but it only makes my cars look better. Most of my cars have sold for the price I bought them for.

>>28956456jesus christ shut up retard
>>28956417Yep. I legimately think drifters should be executed for what they did to the S13. Stock S13's are basically extinct thanks to especially them ruining them with mods and crashing them. I remember how back in 2018 you could still get an Automatic stock S13 200SX for 3k euros. Now it's 12K at least if not more. All because of fucking modders and drifters hunting stock S13's to exitinction.
>>28956457Meant for >>28956417
>>28956462>I remember how back in 2018 you could still get an Automatic stock S13 200SX for 3k euros. Now it's 12K at least if not moreHow does this compare with other sports cars of the era?
>>28956468Well many of them are up quite a lot. I didn't follow too many other cars than 200SX at the time. But I remember in Japan you could get an automatic NA 300ZX for 1500 euros (off course add shipping plus taxes it would be 4k or something at the very least if not more)I did follow the MR2 and while it has gone up not nearly as much. I would say MR2 is right now about 1.5 times to 1.75 times more expensive than back in 2016-2019 when I followed the prices. 200SX is 4 times more expensive.
>>28956417Is this what you've noticed after years of staring through the bus windows?
>>28956471Though I would say worst one is the MK4 Supra. I remember back in mid 2010s you could get an RHD NA Automatic MK4 Supra for 5-6K euros with minimal mods. (like only mods would be exhaust, wheels and different stereo) That's probably nowadays at least 4 times more expensive.
Tastefully modded > untouched time capsule You gotta have cuck-mind if you don't like adding miles or don't want to do anything to your car
>>28956417Are you a communist? People can do whatever they wish with their private property you red tranny nigger faggot.
>>28956417I don't know anybody that's hacking up their JDM cars in 2026, everyone is just swapping better motors in or doing turbo setups to catch up with modern traffic and calling it a day. I think the consensus is that the ricer body kit era was a hallucination and everyone just wants to leave it in the past.
>>28956480I mean nobody is doing that anymore since the value of the cars has soared so much. But back when the cars were cheaper people did hack up these cars and that caused good examples to go almost extinct, which is why the cars now cost so much money.I think something similar did happen with the 60s and 70s muscle cars. They were cheap as hell kids modded them and crashed them. Good examples ended up being hard to find and that is how muscle cars became expensive.
>>28956478for real this is the answer.
>>28956482>he doesn't have a soft spot for sex-specI don't care, it was sovl, the women were skinnier, and the music was better. I'm an unc I know.
>>28956482You aren't wrong, the cars became more expensive from years of neglect in their cheap shitbox years. I just don't think anybody is going out of their way to cosmetically change JDM cars anymore, the examples you see on the road are more than likely cause they were bought like that after going through 15 owners and the current owner just cannot find a clean OEM bumper or hood to save their life so they use what they got. I know the pain, I have a Del Sol with a fucked up front end and 8 years later it's still a work in progress finding clean replacement fenders that aren't being price gouged.
>>28956478I’m a nazbol
mods that can be reversed and don't lead to damage of the car (i.e. suspension, wheels, exhaust) are not badif you had two of those cars side by side, bone stock vs properly lowered/modded, you'd feel the improvement the mods provide, especially on a track or twisty road
>>28956497Doesn't Nazi stand for "national socialist?"
>>28956471>>28956474It's almost as if performance cars just naturally get more expensive as they age.Are modders and drifters the reason boomer tier Muscle Cars are no longer cheap too?Are modders and drifters the reason Ford Escorts are no longer cheap?Are modders and drifters the reason air cooled 911s are no longer cheap?
>>28956478
>>28956524ok but you didn't explain how they're wrong lmao
>>28956500Nazis aren't socialist
Being a street tuner only works if you are autistic enough.
>>28956467shut up retard
>>28956435I wish. Even a ricer raped 200SX goes for at least €15k now. Haven't seen a stock one for sale for almost a decade now.
>>28956480>swapping better motors in or doing turbo setups to catch up with modern trafficNigger what? Even measly 140 HP is more than enough to keep up with traffic in a relatively light 90s nip mobile. What kind of fucking cope is this?
>>28956417I'm glad I have an undesirable car so the car and its parts' prices didn't baloon into the stratosphere. Although they are slowly creeping up and availability is very low because it wasn't that popular to begin with.
>>28956594Getting gapped by a Kia feels bad, noticing the driver in the Kia isn't even doing it intentionally and they're just looking at their phone while driving means I need to add 300 more hp to my car.
>>28956417>but these “tuners” or “jdm fans” or whatever you want to call them absolutely destroy them>incel complaining that Japan car enthusiasts are modifying their Japan car>with Japan industry parts and upgradesyou sound like a whiny little broke bitch. Its the same with firearms- why not use a modern AR15 variant? Are we just supposed to stick with the Vietnam-era M16? What a boring mindset. If the Nissan "S platform" have amazing new engineering parts like adjustable suspension arms, spherical bushings, locking differentials, adjustable coilovers, cooler-looking aero, why wouldn't you use those? Not everyone just want their car like original. Some people actually drive their car, not just stare at it kek
>>28956612You jest but I guess this makes sense for all these retarded justifications how broccoli haired faggots need 500 HP at least. I forget how easy it is hurt zoomer feelings.>Not everyone just want their car like original. Some people actually drive their car>NOOOOOOOOO YOU CANT DRIVE AN OLD CAR UNMODIFIED>IT NEEDS MODS OTHERWISE IT NEEDS TO STAY PARKEDPost hair.
>>28956617Nobody cares
>>28956619Woops, forgot to link the zoomer post>>28956617
>>28956619>>28956623>REEEEEEEE>youre not allowed to modify the car you own!>youre supposed to only keep it original like how I delusionally want! >:this is how you faggots are looking like. Meanwhile everyone else with a cool S-chassis car are happy with customizing and personalizing theirs. Despite your brokie opinions
>>28956630Not reading that. Nobody cares.
>>28956632>Not reading that.obviously enough to be butthurt enough to make this thread faggot.>Noooooooo you cant modify these cars!fucking cucks. Probably never touch your girl so you can save her for Tyrone type shit. /o/ full of whiny cornballs. I thought you guys were edgy and cool.
>>28956630>riced out s13s are coolAlright, settle down there Juan.
>>28956664You don't fuck your girl just to keep her tight for the next
>>28956617>Not everyone just want their car like original.Engineer and build your own then, bitch.Stop adulterating the finite Pool of such rare cars.
>>28956668>cuck fantasies>first thing on its mind is resalePeak ricer.
>>28956594I can't hold a 3rd gear drift with 140hp.....not with modern tyres anyway
>>28956566Neither has any other regime in human history been. Everything that has ever called itself socialist or communist is actually a far right totalitarian oligarchical state that calls itself socialist to placate the people, like the national-socialist nazis did.
>>28956630You should not be allowed to modify the car you own. We need the state to step in put laws in place keeping tuners from ruining cars.
>>28956699You've really got to try something new, man. There's nothing more ricer than complaining that someone hasn't dropped their car. I'm xxx429, you know me, I'll crank up the boost and go catless, but I'm not drilling in spoilers or spraypainting the interior.
>>28956713>Rather just MODIFY something to be BetterThat may be your INTENT.Now show me some success stories...You must admit that my point is valid.How many EG Civics have been wrecked by such desires..They will never be built again.
>>28956715Stop replying to it
>>28956719>What does any of that shit have to do with LOWERING a car to make it Better?Personally, I know that suspensions are complicated. I'm an engines and materials science guy, suspension angles are voodoo to me. They probably are to you, whether you'll admit it or not. You mess with one thing, you fuck up another. If I can do everything I want with my car, why would I fuck with it for aesthetics? I do sway bars, tires, and OE replacement for the rest.Don't BMWs have multilink often? That would fuck so many angles.
>>28956674Nobody said anything about reselling you stupid bitch. If you had a brain you'd know mods don't inheritly increase value. The analogy was used to demonstrate how delulu you are boo
>>28956683What’s going on with the back wheel hubcap thing
>>28956728An alignment can only fix so much. Obviously it can, theoretically, be better but it's not my thing. If I can do everything I want with the car (powerslides on the street), then what would I gain from dropping it? Imaginary "clout?" Lap times, when I only care about the street (I have tracked plenty though, have a wheel and tire setup for tracks in the barn)?In my fair opinion, obsessing about ride height is maximum ricer.
>>28956753>Putting on a better suspension isn’t ruining it lol1 - You're advocating for mods, specifically lowering, on street cars. You are a ricer.2 - It was designed as it is. The beanboys may have factored into it, but in the end the car was designed around stock. 3 - Suspensions are more complicated than you think.4 - My driveway is gravel for a half a mile.What benefit did you get from lowering your car? Did it let you use the throttle to vector the car better? Be specific.
I agree. Especially people that lower their cars.0.5" is fine sometimes. Anymore, youre a dumb brown.
>>28956753>Putting on a better suspension isn’t ruining it lolit does ruin it, it isn't better and modifying cars for street use is 90 IQ behaviour
>>28956769You know I'm just fucking with you, right? Since I woke last I've had a full 12 pk of 9.2%s (halfway through the last one, I need more!), an entire bottle of champagne, and 800mg of gummies with some of it being THC-P.You wanna lower a car, fucking go for it, I don't care. They do look better that way and should have been designed around it. But, if I can do powerslides without dying, I'm not going to fuck with mine.
>>28956783Yes, but they design it around the height they go with.If my car does exactly what I want, as if it were an extention of my body, why would I fuck with it? I love fucking with stuff, but I also like drifting on the street without hitting even a curb. If my car and I can do that, I'm leaving it alone.
>>28956795>No, they DESIGNED it aggressively LOWER, then raised it to the height they go withI highly doubt that.>Yes, this commuter car, with the laws and regulations we know.... we're going to design it specifically for being 2 inches lower.You're delusional, man.What is "satisfying?" I want to be able to do reckless shit and live. Where you live, you have to go out of your way to find places to do that. You're the ricer obsessing about wheel gaps and bullshit.
>>28956462How long until they can just 3d print an entire car the way it was built in the past, where are my Star Trek replicators
>>28956725>n-no thats not what i meantRetarded ricer
>>28956807>How long until they can just 3d print an entire car the way it was built in the past, where are my Star Trek replicatorsLearn materials science. When we make pistons or cylinders, we concern ourselves heavily with the crystalline structure of the metal.When the 3D printer lays another layer on, there's an obvious defect point between each layer.
>>28956417If we're talking purely looks, 90% of cars only need a good set of wheels and tires
>>28956474>scarcity raises pricesYeah, no shit
waht if your s13 came modded stock?
>>28956462I thought the dice were a decal of picrel
>>28956922kek I see it
>>28956462you're about 15 years too late. of course stock looks great in hindsight. the day of good $2500 cars is long gone. silvias were nothing special, nor was the ae86, rx7, supra, skyline or any other car. the whole allure was that you could get a good platform for modifying for cheap. none of these cars were ever on the level of a porsche, lotus, or anything like that. they were pretty mediocre.... but they were rwd and relatively light and neutrally balanced. a beginner could drive them somewhat hard with little risk.> t. owned 3 silvias.
>>28956524This is why we need fascism unironically. The era of good faith is over and the peons need to be told what to do, how to do it, how much to do it, and the exact tune to whistle while doing it.
>>28957011Yeah but the top one is relatively salvagable. The bottom one is completely ruined.
>>28956480>think the consensus is that the ricer body kit era was a hallucination and everyone just wants to leave it in the past.the rice comes stock now and now its all about led interior mood lighting. now that i think about it i think youre a ricer too.
>>28956417This is very true. It turns out experienced automotive engineers and designers have a better grasp of design language than the average wannabe retard.

>>28956683I think the right are libertarians, like Javier Milei.
i don't really gaf if someone mods their car but why has it always got to be the tackiest most embarassing shit on the planet? and they always spend a ton of cash on mods then neglect basic maintenance so the car falls aparts chassis cars are just embarassing to be associated with now because of these retards
>>28957508>I think the right are libertarians, like Javier Milei.The modern right are authoritarians pretending to be libertarian. Here in Alabama, the reddest of red: porn is illegal, card games are illegal, and any cannabinoids are a felony. One weed plant, minimum-mandatory 10-to-life. You can concealed carry or open carry a semi auto, but knives over 2.5" are illegal.They claim to be libertarian but want to enforce their vision of reality on you.
>>28957497Based.I helped my mate install one of those rancid pandem/rocket bunny widebody kits on his S13 180SX and frankly the thing looks pretty damn good.I wouldn't mind hooning about with it one bit.
>>28957678>One weed plant, minimum-mandatory 10-to-lifeI cannot stress this enough. You see those true crime vids where people rape, torture, or murder people - they don't get 10 years a lot of the time. In my state the judge legally cannot give you a sentence less than 10 years if you grew one weed plant. Doesn't seem very "freedoms" to me.

>>28956417I agree OP. When I wanted to buy an unmolested last gen Prelude a few years ago, I was having a hard time finding something stock.
