Nah, i see plenty of stock r34 gtrs driving around here in Tokyo. And about a million fd rx7s.

Somewhere in north america is the rarest Japanese car ever, an unmolested kouki s14.

I realized the other day that I had no idea what a stock R32 GT-R muffler looked like, every single car I've looked at (mostly japanese auction pictures) had something like this:



I suspect the nissan museum contains the only GT-Rs in the world with stock mufflers:

I've seen a lot of this sort of horrible abortion on the internet, but never in person.
It's located right near the 3-way intersection by the entrance to Stafford Motor Speedway if anyone wants to go gaze upon its horror in person.

First impression: What the hell is that? A new Challenger in primer maybe...?


Oh dear. No, that would be way cooler. We've got some high grade fuckery going on here.


The gently caress???


Good god it looks so loving ugly

who the gently caress actually does this. Seriously. Go buy a PT Cruiser and tape 900 pounds of pepboys chrome bullshit to it or something.

I can only assume some abhorrent person thought this was a great idea, or someone got sandwiched in a crash (and therefore it has a salvage title they aren't mentioning) and they decided to act out their horrible dreams instead of paying a bodyshop to just put it back how it was.

good god I clicked this thread hoping for a lot of new material and only found goons being insufferable about stupid bullshit.

Here, have something else to make an awful derail out of. Grabbed these out of my imgur account, I've probably already posted them at some point.

Yeah they put some real work into that one. If the wheels weren't incredibly gaudy and stupid I'd be mostly alright with it.

The funniest part about the car that got assaulted with pink spraypaint was that I saw those pics being posted on a facebook group not unlike this thread. Then the owner got wind of it (it was a group dedicated to terrible cars in a certain US state), joined the group, and threw an amazing shitfit about how no one should disrespect ~HER BUILD~. When everyone told her it was awful, that spraypainting random things pink is not a "build", and she was an idiot she immediately ragequit the group, of course.

I was fairly convinced Chinese scooter man was dead after not seeing it for a few days. :ohdear:

He's back! :toot:



He's left the hub spun around the wrong way and just gently caress-it "welded" his way to success!

Bonus image in case you missed it in the original post: He remounted the spring on the swing arm and this angle just shows how amazing this whole package is.
