PSA: Enough with the rocket bunny/LB BS

[turboshoebox]

RB produed a cool enough kit when it was just a front sides and rear and not too crazy of wide body almost oem looking with a twist.

http://tailoutsx.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/s13f3.jpg


Now their ugly ass flares are put on every car out there. It's ugly, unoriginal, played out and whatever you wanna call it. It was NEVER cool. Even their s13 aplication has always been ugly. Please fucking stop it. Thank YOU!

OP seems traumatized. Did they get your car too??? It is best to let us know so we can help you.

[burnsauto]

just be patient, things like this naturally run their course. Just concentrate on what you like and why you build your car the way you do, and everything will be okay, lol.

Look! A new thread! Maybe it has some interesting information in it! Nope just turdshoebox making another dumb thread about nothing.

[zwzweston]

Wow. I saw this thread and knew instantly that it was the same guy who posted all the other bullshit threads. Good work, you're making a name for yourself...

[simmode1]

Whoa. No pics of the Z33 kit? It's easily the ugliest one out there.

Edit: just saw the S30 one from SEMA. A Challenger has appeared!

Agreed, Kei Muira could make a kit based on a turd he shit the night before and people would still run it.

Agreed, Kei Muira could make a kit based on a turd he shit the night before and people would still run it.

which is a shame because he's done such better work than this, just under different companies. hopefully this isn't the only thing that he will get huge acclaim for in his lifetime.. He's very talented and creative, so we'll see how things go once this trend cools down.

I was always a fan of the Silvia back in the day, one of those unobtainable kits we only saw on the web and in magazines, but I guess some of the luster has worn off after seeing what's happened over the last couple of years.

I love the front bumper and the v1 rear bumper with front and rear overs of your choice... I just hate the huge over fender arches they just look turrible

[burnsauto]

look it's easy to start bitching about the guy bitching, but I think this topic deserves some attention, and there's nothing wrong with someone stating their opinion. ...and honestly, there have been thousands of threads with less to say than this one that have much more popularity (doing it wrong, anyone?).

Seeing these cars has me question if anyone is actually doing this in a real world scenario? You'll always have the guys who do it for show cars, and I get it..time, money, wanting to stand out, etc etc... but that's the setting I've always seen these kinds of builds. Sure, a lot of attention is brought with that, but that doesn't come close to where are scene really is. Makes me understand the frustration that someone could feel when that's what their bombarded with, the fat that boils off and floats to the top.

How are any of the threads he has made lame? Seems like everyone goes in and chimes in on these "lame" threads (including you). If its so "uncool" why not just stay out of the thread completely?

A thread about aero parts on an automotive forum, and its even posted in the General Section/Chat. So I am assuming thats that what he wants to do... is chat. If YOU do not, then whats so hard about staying out? Hes not going in on sale threads bashing people like I see so many other members do, nor is he going in on OTHER peoples thread and saying that its "lame".
No one is arguing, its alright to have a discussion with other people on a discussion forum.

WTF. Isn't this grounds for a ban anymore? There's some other fuckboy with a whole page of homosexual bashing and no one has been pink'd. I slipped once back when I first joined and I got my fucking timeout. Why not pink these guys and stop these fucking threads from being posted? All this fucking guy does is post bullshit threads to gain 'Zilvia rep' and then he ignores people trying to call him out. It's always the same, already-been-talked-about shit, too. He never posts anything work a damn.

burnsauto - It does need to be talked about and we already are talking about it in the DIW thread. The SEMA thread I started even turned into a talk about it. The problem is this kid trying to gain 'mad street cred, y0.'

Well maybe hes trying to be considerate by making a dedicated thread for the RB stuff instead of cluttering your SEMA thread with it.

Hell I dont know, maybe he is a kid just trying to get his post count up. But it says hes 30 something, so I imagined him as just some guy wanting to talk and interact with other members here. Who knows.

yes, but its still nothing compared to the OSGiken TC24-B1 in that s30 z.
if the greddy car wasn't owned by someone famous, I don't think it would have half the attention it does.

the rumor is, OSGiken offered him the twin cam engine to use in his car, but their only caveat was that he couldn't run the Wocket Banny kit. Guess which route he went. I would have sold both my left feet for a TC24. that thing is PRICELESS

Agreed the legendary the TC24 head on top of a L series 3.1 would of been off the wall, and way more attractive. Maybe a IMSA style kit on a S30 would of been way better off, i would love to see this setup on a Hakosuka. The Fuguz in my opinion isn't what its all cracked up to be. The front does not flow well with those overs, it's just not what a Z should look like, to me, it's a bad interpretation of modern day Bosozoku at it's finest.
