Ricey or No?

Stumbled upon this on craigslist...

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/cto/982088377.html

Look at his domain page...
- Major upgrades is Motor Swap (It's a VQ30DE), JWT ECU, and Full Exhaust...
- 14.8 Quarter Mile @ 98 MPH seems about right...
- 290 HP??? Really???

Teenagers... Rice = Cool

Edit 01/07/09... The owner of the car Emailed me back and came onto the org to defend himself... Here is his Email response:

Oh yeah DUH! Stupid me! The engine swap (Though it's obviously and definitely a VQ30DE) must have been an RB26 Swap! Makes sense now! No wonder he ran a 14.8! Cause it's got Twin TearBO RB26 Powah!

What was he thinking when he painted his kit? And the blue accents on the interior complement them nicely. I seriously don't get what some people are thinking when they mod their cars...

Looks like he just rattle canned the grill and tails to match, or at least the tails. The grill is probably unpainted as well.

The whole motor is changed to a jdm model and the odometer stoped working due to this so roughly at about 50k miles its strong and very fast ... front blinglights.com LED fog lights
His odometer stopped working because he "changed the motor to a JDM model"

That car looks more like a box car,and for the quote from the (2fa2f)Hey guys where did you get the cars from,the bottom of the ceral box. Seriously, This Is a disgrace for all of us The parts should come off of the car because It looks very nasty,especially the front grill and the back tail lights.
