Why is that rice again? It's not like he just put a bunch of stickers on the car or bought altezzas for it. Saw that car in the british Max Power. Built up turbocharged engine, NSX seats, all kinds of custom bodywork including the headlight and taillight conversion as well as the NSX sidevents. It's a show car that seems to be pretty fast. To me, it's a whole lot better than GTR badges or Altezzas on a Maxima.

sure its not a GTR but the work on the car looks tastefully done.

To me, well put together rice is still rice. I think I wouldnt have a problem with it if they took the GTR badge off the front. No matter what you do to it, it will never be a GTR.

You could mod an Integra or an Accord until it was, for all intents and purposes, a Type R. But, an Integra could never become a GTR.

That gets to me the most. Overall, yeah, it's a really nicely done conversion.

nice?

sorry that car is ugly as hell. Maybe after the shows he enters, he returns his wing to the park with rest of the park benches. I think that skyline conversion would be really hot on a 240sx however.

Totally agree with you! Honda can never become a Nissan. Put aside the conversion. Converting a Ferrari to Honda seems wrong also. If that Integra had a NSX badge on it, it would be nice, otherwise, its not a GT-R.

Its different....

nothing too extreme like that white 300zx that was posted on offtopic earlier this week. as for the GTR badge, thats plain corny on a Honda no matter how many body conversions you make! but its not like any of us are quick enough to catch up to him and tell him that if they saw him on the highway!!

The car looks like it was made with Lego. Whassup with the 72' Hemi look? The back is all high and what not. I guess its for added downforce.

Can you not see the jack on the back of it?
I think it is done very well, havn't seen a Maxima with a good conversion like that but would love to, I like the 240 SX idea, just slap a turbo on it though, but whoever did that did a great job it looks really good but it should have been put on a Nissan not a f*cking honda

I think they are the Volk Racing FZero Challenge rims...and they look to me like they could be 18" or 19"...I like them too. I saw an article in a magazine with a Supra that had these, but I heard they are very expensive!

Actually that car looks really nice. It looks like a really good conversion, very clean.

DAMN!!! That Integra has Turbo & NOS! I'm pretty sure it's just a show car and they will do whatever it takes to win trophies.

as much as I hate the idea of a an acura trying to be a skyline... I must say that car looks SWEET! i love the sides and think that everything was so cleanly done that it is very hard to hate it.
