    Default Is a defect something to be proud of?

    I've seen on car forums all too many times that people seem to be proud of their defects. What's the deal? Do they think the masses look up to them? Is the inconvenience of having a car off the road really with worth the cool factor? You can modify a car within state guide lines and still make it look good.

    Yea man, I can't see out my windows at night but 5% tint is awesome.
    No, it isn't awesome.. you are a flogger. What is going to happen when you run a cyclist off the road because you didn't see them? I dare say the cops will 1.56 seconds to work out why you didn't see them.

    Sacked bro, that's how I roll. Chop the springs and it handles like a go-kart.
    I doubt it. It would handle like a billy-kart with lawn mower wheels. Hopefully you hit a bump and your spring falls out and you crash. Get you death mobile off the road while ANYONE is around.

    I gutted my cats so it's hectic loud, the chicks love it.
    The chicks think you drive with your hand on your penis and your car sounds like a wet fart. Say hello to the EPA when they catch you.

    It drifts heaps sicker with bald stockies
    Do I need to say anything? Tool...


    Honestly, some people need a good hard look at themselves. Stop thinking that you are king shit because your 'full massive ride' looks 'dope as' but is really a rolling coffin. If I was ever defected I would be ashamed as hell because I let my car turn into a piece of shit.

    Lol - I did get a defect once because my horn wasn't loud enough. It was louder than the police car but not loud enough. That was only coz he didn't have the evidence to charge me with anything else and I was a real smart arse at the time (19 years of mature glory)

    Some people just really enjoy being 6 years old and try really hard to carry that persona on through their adult life, no need to hold it against them

    Speak english please.

    The real question here is 'who is the bigger tool?'
    The one who wears the defect as a badge and is proud of it or the one who bitches about it saying the whole world is against them?

    I have a mate, well ex-mate now because of his ********ed-ness, has a stock non turbo silvia, and he drives it like its a dedicated track drift machine. Hes always banging on about his latest fine, or his "sick mad 90 degree angle i got coming outta the carpark bro".

    One of them typical ricer boys who hate cops. Sad really

    But seriously, anyone who does stupid shit like that should go and speak with the family of a victim due to a road accident where a stupid driver is at fault. you can't imagine how hard it would be for a family if they lost their 19 year old daughter or 25 year old son becuase some d*ck decieded to street race with bald tyres and no springs. Not have their car taken away for a rediculious 48hours, anyone could live without a car for 2 days, it hould be more like a month, ofcourse it depends on what the offense was but street racing in suburban streets should be more like a month not two days. Anyways sorry if i got off topic and end of my rant to

    Troy what you said right there was beautiful. Lock the thread now before someone ruins it.

    Also, while you're at it, get garth to sticky it.

    i dont do shit too my car to impress women, its the last thing i would have mention/brag about because women dont like cars. i fail to see the women-car link

    as for gutted cat meh, straight piece of pipe works better, and doesnt ruin a perfectly good cat

    as for being proud of a defect...not sure never had one.

    Couldn't agree more. And if you do get one, cop it on the chin. One thing that shits me the most is people saying "Oh f**kn copper dogs defected me for my 25" rims, and my 2% tint, coz my car only scraped on the ground when there was a passenger in it, f**k i hate the pigs, f**k the AFP!!"
    Really grinds my gears.

    there should be a ...
    "What Grinds Your Gears" thread ....
    on second thought.. that could end badly hahaha.

    i know wat u guys mean. and notice the majority are P platers? drives me nuts. gives the rest of us a bad name.

    although i do want dark tint. but if your not retarded, you should be able to drive around at night and not kill people.... well thats my opinion. i know ppl with 5% and they dont have any victims or cop trouble.. yet!

    You dont have to be retarded, you can be the safest driver in the world.. with 5% tint.. your asking for accident to happen.. its far to dark to make quick decision's at night time..
    chances are you wont see what's going on till it's ontop of you...

    Some people sacrafice ALOT just for looks.. it's up setting.
