getting trolled, someone coming in just to start trouble, not knowing what the heck they are talking about. or just to get people worked up in a bother.

I think a lot of people on here who refer to "ricer" are just referring to any smaller car with a butt trumpet and various cosmetic things like wing spoilers, decals, and fake scoops ect. to get the illusion that the car is fast.

Japanese cars may be for some but most definitely not for me. You want to talk about reliability? How about my 45 year old 442 that’s been a daily driver half its life and has never had to have anything done to it other than a carb. rebuild?

Please go troll somewhere else, and if you think that a car with a little over 100HP is something that’s a race car just because you saw it racing in a movie, makes you a delusional idiot.

Before this gets shut down, I would like to say that is one clean 442!

I hate to break it to the haters but Japanese cars are the most reliable. I LOVE people on this site any questions I had I got answers for, for the most part people are really helpful on here and I thank you. On the other hand there are some posts on here that seem to have a racist tone to them, you know like "ricers, ricers, ricers!" Some jack a$$ posted "I rather ride on a pogo stick than drive an Asian car" on one of the forums I read. Well for all the people bashing "ricers" my question is how do feel about Sang yup Lee, you know the Korean dude, eats rice and designed the 5th generation Camaro....?? Considered by most Camaro fans as the man that brought the camaro back to life!

I worked at a gas station with a repair shop in it all through high school.I saw just as many if not more import cars in for repair.To say that imports are more reliable than american cars is just plain false.

LOL at all the posts! No I'm not trolling, first and foremost I am AMERICAN first! My ethnic background is Chinese/Japanese (father) and Puerto Rican (mother) so "rice" is what we eat most, whether its steamed white rice or rice and beans. Maybe I'm taking things out of context and maybe i really don't know what a "ricer" really is but see it from my point of view...

You associate Japanese cars with "ricer, rice hops, rice etc..." that's what I eat k.
So correct me if I'm wrong but isn't that like associating blacks with oh say "cornbread and fried chicken?" no? What about "mayo" and trailers for whites? Like my thread says "some Camaro owners" are so anti-asian when it comes to cars but ironically an asian person designed it. Why would this thread be deleted again? I don't understand .

It has nothing to do with what people eat GOD, I am as american as you can get (hindz 57 a MUTT) & I eat alot of rice, I love rice. & if you think about it Hispanics eat alot of rice as well so get off the what people eat kick.

YES at first it was the young Asian men that started the "RICED OUT" car kick, Just like Hispanic started the HOOPTY bit with the big wheels & lifted crap on their cars. I know guys who do it think its great & they are not either Asian or hispanic they are WHITE or black or what ever.


as for this thread to be deleted is because you are stating that we are RACIST & we are not. I hate that statement, What race are we trying to win??? I am not in a race I am just trying to live. I have a Niece that is Hispanic, Indian & white. Heck My best friend is what ever.

GET OVER IT

WHO CARES its not what we like. (or some of us like)

"My opinion is priest you are a simple minded moron. In all honesty the car you drive looks and drives like s#$%. I don't wanna be mean but "a v6camaro is not a camaro?"....You have little brain don't you"

so yaaa whatever man. TROOOOOOOLIN!!

What's wrong with you guy? Don't assume by my post, I've PM plenty of people on here for help and questions.

Lol, your alti didn't have the qr25de engine, did it? Back in my spec-v days, thevboard was full of people complaining about issues with those cars. Some of the major ones:

1. Precat failure, resulting in pieces of the cat being sucked into the engine, scoring the walls, and causing consumption of oil. Lots of engines were blown when the owner burned all his oil up. Others were told by dealers that a quart every thousand miles was normal!

2. The butterfly valves on the intake would shed their screws which would get sucked into the engine. Some were lucky and they were passed through without incident, others not so much.

3. Head gasket failures from the material being too thin. About once a week we'd see a post about mayonaise under the oil fill cap.

4. MAF sensors gone bad galore!

5. Fuel pump pressure issues on startup, causing hard starts.

And for non engine related:

1. foam snakes in the hvac that liked to find there way into the vents and clog them up.

2. Paint you could scratch with you fingernail (I tried this one on the lower fender just to see, and it was true)

3. My drivers side door leaked a bit in the rain.


That car was a blast, don't get me wrong, I loved it. And I'm not saying American cars are any better, just saying just because it's asian doesn't mean it's better.

And, I've known plenty of people that say they'd never drive an American car, that attitude is basically a fanboi attitude on either side.
