oh yeah, saw it on friday at the Viceroy.... noticed a black s13 with mishimoto on the side.
what

[irritatedmax]

if this is a revamped version of the sema car, then glad to see it going in the right direction. got a matching kit. now, please lower it a few inches.

[Brian]

I am guessing they didn't want to slam it to the ground right before driving across the whole USA.

[landins13]

i like it, but im also a big fan of mishimoto products....

[DUFFM4N]

it was funny watching this guy trying to "drift/do donuts" at D1 on saturday, but i know your parts had nothing to do with his lack of driving skill :keke:

[Antihero983]

hells yeah for satin black!

too many fucking decals though...good lord is that overkill.

[DUFFM4N]

if you sponsored a car that was participating in a race that catches the attention of car enthusiasts and the media....you would want your company logo on that car as well

[slutz4]

how the hell is he gonna pop his hood when stickers go from fender to the hood.

[BustedS13]

that's dumb. gravel and roadkill should total the car. stop using "logic"

[ThatGuy]

He can't. Stickers are FOREVER! He'll have to get to the engine from underneath from now on. :bite:

[BustedS13]

my roommate bought some of those forever stickers off Jegs and now i can't get into my tool box. bunch of bullshit

[dat411kid]

That's gay, I was at least hoping to see the Gun Show print somewhere on the car..

[Xbroke_kidX]

wow.....that thing is really ugly.

[BustedS13]

wow.....that thing is really ugly.

your car is so cool :)

[ayuaddict]

one question, what is with you guys and those wheels?

i mean, not be to an ass, but im sure for the money, you could have got some stronger, better looking and lighter wheels.

[singlecamslam]

Must suck driving around America with a stripped car and probably no AC in the middle of lambos and masaratis that have AC....

[mrchomponthis]

so funny seeing this guy thinking he is the S''t at d1 burnout FAIL, drift FAIL, GUMBALL FAIR

[Z33dori]

prolly something to do with sponsorship.....

[kalypso123]

what aero is that... charge speed?

[clark]

lol i like the bumper stickers holding the hood shut.

yeah the satin black looks nice! cool car brosephs

[clark]

"not to be an ass, but i'm gonna make an assinine comment"

why do they need stronger better wheels?

my friend has MBs on his 350z. they have held up fine for 3 years....

it doesn't look like they're driving directly into curbs with that car and they don't appear to be trying to shave milliseconds of their trap times you turd monger.

[Z33dori]

doesn't matter those wheels ruin anything that car had going for it..

okay car + shitty looking wheels = shitty car

[kalypso123]

doesnt "need" stronger wheels,

but why would you pay more for sub par quality. and an ugly ass design.

[ayuaddict]

okay okay, my bad.

why do you put UGLY ASS wheels on your car when you could get wheels that are not as ugly for the same amount of money?

[derek_s13]

just thought that was funny




gumball looks fun

[YoungGun]

Why is there a S13 in the gumball?

[hailandkill]

Why is there a S13 in the gumball?

exactly what i was thinking. i hope it has at least a tt ls1 or 12 liter cummins deisel or something equally retarded.

[arkive43]

:rofl: this thread is full of win...

i think its cool theres an s13 in the rally.

[opponheimer]

I think the car is hideous because of the decals, sorry..

[marveluz]

I like the stickers better on the hummer.

Looks like im buying bumper stickers instead of hood latches for my hood. Anyone know which type of sticker holds best?

[karl wasabi]

I couldn't imagine driving that thing for 3000 miles. lol. Must be super uncomfortable.

[BustedS13]

you guys are all pussies with your desire for comfort and air conditioning. i would kill a non-blue zilvia member for the opportunity.

[karl wasabi]

LOL. I'd kill to do the Gumball Rally just as much as the next guy. But I'd take a second thought at doing it in a coilover'ed vehicle. haha.

My choice would have been that Crown Vic aka Swine Flu Response Team. hahahaha.

[Antihero983]

bah do it in a lifted beetle.

lifted torsion suspension means every crack feels like a fucking canyon of a pothole, and I still daily mine.

[steve shadows]

hells yeah for satin black!

too many fucking decals though...good lord is that overkill.

I remembered when I used to get so much flack for satin black or semi-flat paint jobs on my race cars...now it's EVERYWHERE...

It's hard being a trend setter sigh :keke:

Doesnt a Gumball car have to be able to keep up with exotics? though?

Is this a 5-600 hp car/

I don't think there is any rule to what car you can have in the rally. The very last car in the parade at D1 was a prius. LOL.

Actually anyone who runs anything but One Piece High Magnesium content wheels is asking for suicide over 130-140 mph...not sure if this thing goes up that high anyways though

Just went through Dallas. Mishimoto s13 at 2:34.

YouTube - Gumball 3000 Dallas 2009 [HD] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56smH57fBHw)

[mishimoto]

^Good find, thanks!

[Brian]

It's not necessarily a race.

Just drive across the country and have fun.

[mishimoto]

[blitzsti22]

do you know what motor the s13 is using??

[YoungGun]

I think they put those stickers/duct tape there because it doesn't have hood pins lol.

[allntrlundrgrnd]

if you sponsored a car that was participating in a race that catches the attention of car enthusiasts and the media....you would want your company logo on that car as well

weird i didnt know "NO FAT CHICKS" made performance parts :drool:

I apologize but i think that car looks like it has swine flu.

[landins13]

It's not necessarily a race.

Just drive across the country and have fun.
seriously its all about fun, its kinda a race but realistically none of those supercars are gonna hit top speed anyways, if they do theyll be out of the race because theyll be in jail.

the stickers on the car are a little much seeing as how they have puma stickers and shit on there. but its whatever at least theyre doing the gumball most of the hagard ass rust buckets on here wouldnt last the 300o miles that or the people who spent 3k on not ugly wheels to be trendy wouldnt have the cash to afford the gas to do the rally.

you all need to let people do what they want to do and stop being god damn nazi's about everyone elses cars.

oh sheiza mein hitler you see vut veels dey put on zee s13 ve must kill zem. so many stickers mein hitler ve must neg rep and trash talk zem until zey can afford 4k works to go vith zer stock ka


be easy people and do you. if you like pink polkadots on your hood do it. just do you and stop worrying if someone 3000 miles away on a forum is gonna like your car.

[Brian]

haha, I've been following along with some of the guys on the net.

a bunch got arrested already as well as having cars impounded.

I think 2 of the Bugattis got impounded already.

There was word that one of them got busted for 230. lol

A lot of them seem to get busted doing 170 or so.

But, I guess it doesn't really matter.

[landins13]

my next door neighbor does the gumball every year in either his gt3-rs or his ford gt and he said every year he gets at least 1k in tickets for driving like a jackass

[Brian]

Does he have the red GT? white stripes on it I think...

[landins13]

no his is one of the lime green ones with black stripe. i dont know if hes doing it this year if he is hes probly driving one of these:

black carrera gt
midnight blue ferrari challenge stradali
red 67 corvette with a c6 zo6 ls7 in it
or his maserati spyder

he owns a local supercar dealership so on any given day hes driving something different. i just know that his personal cars are the red vette, the black gt3 the green gt3 and the ferrari, but he could be in anything.

[JVD]

This thing... ugh the wheels.

[handinpants]

its not their car, the car used to belong to a guy named ray, and yo from rogue status bought it. its rhd too, redtop sr
rogue staus are good people,

[dori_sil8t]

lol i was waiting for the nissan s13 1500 dollars...

[MadScientist]

Gumball 3000 passed through New Orleans on Wed. night... 120 cars... parking was downtown in Hard Rock Parking lot and at the Royal Sonesta hotel.
Entry fee for this Run was $40k... funny as hell seeing 2 Scions and a S13 made it into this very exclusive Rally.

2 Bugatti Veyrons... one a super rare Pur Sang (gold/carbon)... so funny because the driver had a Jack-a-Lope and a babydoll in the passenger seat!!

They didn't open the Parking lot or garage to spectators... however they did at every other stop!!

This was one hell of a night... I found out this was going down at 5pm on Wed. Called some peeps and descided to hunt for the parking area... everything was hear-say at the time. Found the parking lot... talked to some of the drivers and their riders. Got about a total of 15 min. of random footage over the entire night... most of it was cars... best part is running into the Cuban Brothers and Lemy after we snuck into the Royal Sonesta... hung out at the bar... then the Cuban Brothers told me to roll footage. I should put this on You Tube.... anyway... after that we got VIP status everywhere... however the camera was not allowed in. Its not every night you get to party with Dennis Rodman and Twitch!!

[Rapier46]

too many gay stickers.

[Bushido]

saw that r34 get pulled over on the florida turnpike by fhp...

[QuickSpoolSR]

does he have stickers holding the hood shut lol

[slothonaleash]

Guh

Driving all day through 110 degrees fahrenheit, black car, no ac, gutted interior.

Maybe I'm just a pussy, but driving downtown in the heat in a black, semi-gutted, no ac s13 makes me want to rip my skin off.
