My Friends Getting A Type Arrrrrgh

[Capt. Orygun]

lol this guy I used to work with at Pizza Hut is bying a 97 GSR which he keeps refurring to as a "Acura Integra VTEC". He keeps going on about how fast it is "OMG it's DOCH and VTEC, you think it's a type R?"

I haven't seen ricer on this level for many years, it's almost vintage...

 

[get_nick]

oh the memories. i would buy all the stock stuff he wants to sell. buy the stock tails when he gets altezzas, buy the wheels for dirt when he gets chrome, buy it all. then sell it back to him when he realizes he was a tool. hahahaha

 

[posol]

it ain't a real car if it ain't a type arrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[Capt. Orygun]

OMG someone link me to the rap! I need it now lol. I bet if I send it to him he'd bump it

 

[Vosty]

lmao @ vintage ricer comment... Sadly enough they still exist, most of them are the teenagers however...

If Chip Rutan drives a Type-R, that goes to say a lot about them.

That said, I was told that even when you see a sunroof / options deleted Type-R look alike, the gas tank straps always tell the tale.

so when I have some kid that is making the claim, I go along with it. Make him look as tall as possible in front of as many people as possible, then I point out the tank and watch him cringe.

never really was into tegs, but i've seen a few R look alikes here in my area, so whats up with the gas tank straps?

 

[Celerity]

Type Rs have "different" gas tank straps. I would have to remember that they are simply larger, or there are 3 of them.

 

[Cashizslick]

Lol vintage ricer.

He's not from springfield MA by any chance??


If so, he will fit right in with all his friends who already own 'honda civic vtecs'

 

[Capt. Orygun]

[Celerity]

"Eat my poo, I've got a subaru!"

If the guy is 30 years old, there might be a good reason why he is into imports at that age....

back in 1992 is when "imports" as we know it started coming around in their own right in terms of guys fixing them up.

I realize that this is not entirely new, because back in the 80's guys were fixing up their nissans as well...

But for arguement's sake let's pretend it started back in 1990, with the preludes and new body styles of the accord and the civics.

This guy woulda been in the same grade as I was back then, and before Juan and Jose started putting chrome rims and "powered by mexican" stickers on their beater hondas, guys were ordering shit straight from japan (i remember looking at some japanese catalogue my buddy had and ordering a $800 exhaust from japan for my brand new 1991 prelude.)

hardly anyone at my highschool in cali had an import that was "fixed up" and it was a relatively new thing.
so, it was cool.


so, this guy coulda been one of those highschool students who couldnt afford to own a new honda (read: mommy and daddy) and still liked the cars, and just decided to get one.

i used to have this kid down the street from me ask me if my CRX was one of them VTECs.. i simply laughed.. he called the Civic SI a Honda VTEC ...

 

[eg6sir]

[Capt. Orygun]
