edit: th eone in the pic is a subaru of course, but i would like to have it on a evo
EDIT!!!

i must agree with most of you guys, the hks carbon ti exhaust looks kinda ricey.

look at this WRX, look: rice

but i could keep that idea, so i searched for evo 8 with the exhast, and i found them!!!, and IMO in the evo 8 looks fine and totally cool, but hey thats me, imo doesnt look rice in the 8

2004 WRX

that's still not enough. If you simply want it for sound effect then yes, it's rice. If you want it for functionality, then no

right, but for the looks id say the sound is rice, u can find better ones

well i dont like it alot, and if ur changing the exaust and u dont eanna b rice its because u want performance and if u want performencce then there is better, and personally i dont like those huge exausts that u can se all the pipes from bhind

noosee 08-09-2004 02:06 AM

No it's not :D If it ads hp then it can't be.
Those stickers & spoilers don't add anything and they are rice :D

blah 08-09-2004 02:09 AM

Thats not a Evo thats a STi you can tell by the tail lights, or WRX. But why the hell would you want a carbon fiber exhaust?

T-Bird 08-09-2004 02:13 AM

um he stated that it was a Subaru and it's for looks and weight :roll:

Well I had two cars so far and on both of them, the first thing was to change the muffler to have a better sound... I don't think it is rice because to have a better sounding car (still into the limits dictated by the law) is not that terrible :D a 6 way muffler is rice because useless, but something like that one is cool in my book! and if it adds a couple of HP, even better.

JiggaStyles09 08-09-2004 01:13 PM

i dont really have a problem with it......on the STi or evo. on a civic, yes its rice but one one of those cars no. even though the sound is associated with rice, i still think its fine.

corvette97 08-09-2004 02:28 PM

i will add the modifications wanted later today.

i have heard a yoshimura carbon exhaust on a suzuki gsr600 and it sounded really nice, plus like t-bird said, weight :wink:

RAMAN 08-09-2004 03:12 PM

Definately not rice if it's on an Evo 8...I used to have the exact catback on my Subaru and it sounded soooo good. Not ricey at all.

slightly off topic but someone put a 'rice cop' ticket on my mate's black Integra Type R the other day because of the rear spolier. The car is stock for f**ks sake!!

wow that means it was a dipshit who doesn't know shit about cars if he gave it to a car with the factory wing on it. what a dipshit.
