I always liked show cars since I was into the lowrider scene when I was a youngin...living in So Cal, lowriders were the shit back in 94. Then I started to get into imports and when I finally got a car I realized that show cars are a waste of money. All that is done just to impress the judges, its all cookie cutter..need 13 tvs in your car and neon everywhere or your car sucks. I never did anything cause someone told me to, so I strayed away from the show scene and decided just to fix my mazda up the way I wanted to...clean yet custom. But thats kinda the joy out of anything...have other people impressed at your work. I'm not saying you should paint your car easter egg yellow cause hot import nights says its cool...but we all mod our cars to impress eachother whether you admit it or not....doing a clean slide or smoking a supra with that RB... we all do it so someone will say "damn hes smooth"..haha.. but seriously, does anyone really need $2,500 volk rims?? It's just so you can say yup those ARE volks! Now im not saying people ONLY mod there cars to impress others...I like the feeling of going 130 mph and I'm sure drifting probably gives you a rush too, but theres nothing better then getting compliments. You worked your ass off to get those volks or swap in that SR20 and you should be damn proud. And like I said earlier If you do got those volks, someone says damn I wish I had those...which is jealousy. And back to what I was saying...I'm into clean yet custom. I wanted the full jdm kouki aero but I've seen 4 different koukis with it in person, randomly so that takes the custom away from my goals, and I dont like bodykits cause that takes away from the clean. So now I'm just stuck basically. Dont get me wrong if you love drifting and drift every weekend..that makes total sense, but the way I look at my car in the custom sense..it just doesnt make sense to me anymore and its just not worth it. Should I import a RHD dash just so I'm up on those other 4 S14's I saw?? And the kid in this thread was (2 years ago haha) in the same mindset I'm in...cars cars cars cars...how can I make my car unique....what can i take from another car and blah blah...its just a waste. I'm just happy im starting to think like this when im 18. Just like grant said....I just realized my life revolves around cars....as soon as I hear an exhaust I'm like a hawk looking to see what kind of car it is... spotting mods... checking driver...How fucking retarded is that? Cause its a competition...you hear exhaust then you hear pshhhh...BOV...damn I need a BOv..I need a bigger turbo I need blah blah so I can beat THAT guy. Woop tee doo...I know someone is reading this and saying hey I do the same thing!...but yeah I dunno..
