I figured I'd make this thread for fun. When u see a tuner drive by or in a lot, pics. what are some things that annoy about the builds?
example: I cant stand all black rims, makes the car look dirty. And I hate the sound of an exhaust without a CAT This post has been edited by Lil-Joe101: Apr 2, 2012 - 11:57 AM -------------------- From Japan to Texas my st202 follows me.

Exhaust is my biggest annoyance. Every Civic/Eclipse/Neon etc... with straight pipe 4" exhaust makes me die inside. If they want to sound like a bumblebee, guess that's their business. Primered body kits. Not so bad at first, I understand not everyone has the money to paint it right away, but once it's been over a year... Eh, that's about it for now I suppose. Unless you can count the punk ass kids that think they're in the "Fast and the Furious".

And I have the sound of an exhaust without a CAT I assume you typo'ed and you mean you hate the sound of an exhaust without a cat. I don't know how someone can hear a difference. A catalytic converter only burns up any left over emissions. It's not a muffler or a resonator or anything like that. It makes no change in sound. It makes a change in smell... and I like my car stinky.

People that think having anything from japan on their car is the coolest most "JDM" thing in the world...
Overusage of the word JDM in reference to their "JDM tyte" car... This post has been edited by 3WayStunna: Apr 2, 2012 - 12:26 PM -------------------- (\__/)

Ah yes chrome, and big spoilers on fwd. Forgot about that. Chrome belongs on cars from the 60's and earlier. That and adding a giant spoiler to give down-force to the un-powered wheels, genius.

I had a guy asking me about a motor swap and AWD conversion on a Mitsubishi 3000GT a while back... My biggest pet peeve is virtually what Tiga said- people who put an exhaust on the car then immediately become so cocky that they think their stock Cavvy will kill a Vette ZR-1. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
