Also, you have a house payment, car insurance, utilities, tuition to pay for? Welcome to the club.

Plus he likes to do things the right way, prime example of what can be accomplished when you take your time and do things right. You wouldn't know, since you're the only one with bills and a set budget of course though. Please, just stop it's just making you look more stupid to complain about things EVERYONE has to deal with.
Obviously you don't read well 'chief'. My point isn't that I'm on a budget, I wasn't complaining about my bills, my point is he probably has a higher income to debet ratio than I do seeing as he can afford high dollar wheels, a GTR and the like. Last I heard GTR's run about 70 grand, plus the dealer mark up of 20 grand or so. I don't see why you guys have to try and belittle us for the wheels we put on our cars, you say it doesn't affect you but you sure have a lot to say about our choice. Enjoy your wheels and say nothing if that is the case.

no problem, I would take all the time in this world if it benefited the jdm aftermarket. It's a hobby that I partake in and I don't appreciate you supporting fake/knockoff/imitation/counterfeit parts. That is all. It brings down the whole scene. Have fun replacing your Rota D2 when you run over a slightly large pebble.

PS: nice triple edit

Do you even know the difference between the R32 and other GTRS? Last I heard, you can get one for the same price as a used 8 in california, so you obviously aren't doing enough research which I already stated. I'm not trying to belittle you whatsoever. I'm just saying, if you want to put garbage on your 8 be my guest, just know it's laughable to a real enthusiast. Noone that respects their car or the legitimate companies that create the original designs will ever put Rotas their car, period. Stop now, you are seriously just making yourself look worse post by post, so just end it.

so your saying just cause i have rotas on my car my car is not done right????some of us just have to be practicle and get what we can afford. just cause you have $3k dollar wheels doesnt mean your car looks better than mine or it doesnt mean that im automatically going to win a race or a car show.
look this guy got a center fold on a mag he has the rota boost.


heres my car with rotas



now lets see your car with your $3k+ wheels... PDM BABY!!!!
you are ****** hilarious. you are making your arguments based on magazine cars? Meanwhile, you put nothing but second rate knock off parts on your car? Then you go on to complain about bills while you have 3 cars that you have and modify? Is this a joke? I would go into serious detail as to why you need to just not comment but I'm going to spare if you if you are willing to end it here. This is the last warning before I make you look like the cheap knock-off loving fool that you are.

All I'm going to say is show me where he mentioned he's buying an R32, when most say GTR nowadays they mean the R35, that's a HUGE difference between Skyline's, the have the most issuse of all the Skyline's. And you can import them from Japan for cheaper than a used 8, you'd just have to add all the emissions crap to make it street legal.

With that said. I'm done bringing down the board with this negative ****, trying to reason with you is about as productive as smashing my head into a wall.

Quit bring mags up, to support your argument that doesn't mean anything. Plus I think rota sponsors D-Sport.

Ummm, not trying to take sides but it says right in his sig that he owns an R32.

I stand corrected...I'll be honest I don't read most the sig's; my bad I'm not trying to start a war because a few people don't like my wheel choice. I never said my wheels are better or even as quality I don't see why they have to jump all over me for it. So like I said I'm done, I've made a big enough *** of myself as it is. No hard feelings everyone, enjoy.

LOL you are a TOOL. I didn't think anyone could know so little about anything. BTW, rota boosts are copies of the Advan RG2, not the RG1. And the wheels didn't tuck, the tires did. If you knew anything about what was required to fit those RG1's, you wouldn't be talking. They aren't your standard s2000 offsets. And for the record, I have never purchased any VIS products.

Leeches like you are what bring RX8Club down. It's people like you who give RX-8 owners a bad reputation. Wise up or GTFO.

Bose, I have no hard feelings. Just a heated argument is all this is. We are both obviously passionate about our POVs. It's cool, what fun would it be if everyone agreed on everything all the time?

definatley would be nice if everyone saw eye to eye. I'm sure once you experience the higher quality you have a better scope of what's good and not. I've only been into cars for a little over 16 months so haven't had a lot of time to play around with different set ups. My point is they are a means to an end, I just didn't want to look stock anymore. I want the high dollar stuff it's dope, I'm saving and searching right now for some advan super racing ver. 2's in blue. Those are pure sex IMO.
