Rice is what people make of it man. ALl we mean is please don't put a 16 foot wide aluminum wing on it.

Don't put spinner's on it, or have visible neons attached to the headliner.

LOL

Every one of us has some rice in one form or another, but it can be done tastefully. I have Blue Cold Cathode tubes in my car, but they are all hidden and not overly bright.

I also tend to do mods to my car with class. Like my radiator hoses. They were nasty and discolored and needed replaced, so I bought blue Samco Sport hoses. Style and performance in one buy. It's like buying FAL slimline fans, and getting the blue ones. You get the performance, with a bit of extra styling in there.

OIC. I gotcha. Well... I don't intend on going full on ricer. I want my tiburon to be clean, you know? Also, I'm looking into the GT wing on Kspec.com. Just so you know.

Question >>> I was wondering if anybody else's 1st gear, 2nd gear, R gear stiff? I mean, Is it hard for anybody else to shift into any of these gears?

Ye, a common problem if you will on our cars. 1-2 shifts, anything back to 1, and getting into R are sometimes a lil testy.

Clearing the gearbox by going into 3rd solves major problems. If reverse is acting up on me, letting out of the clutch in 1st, going for an inch, then going into Reverse solves my problem.

^^^ I've Done just that (play with the clutch a little). It seems to have solved the issue (for the most part). However, One day my clutch was making a weird "squecky door hinge" sound and then it went away. Also, one of the belts have made a slight "wining" sound, but only when it's cold and wet. After a couple minutes its gone. This has only happened twice in the past month. I don't know a whole heck of a lot about cars in general; and, noises and sounds are probably one of my biggest weaknesses.
