Whoa whoa whoa. Stop RIGHT there. I started reading over this thread and it's was going out of control. And yes, this is a picture thread, not a hate thread. I suppose I'll post more pictures to get back on topic. But as I was going to say, I highly doubt that he would intend the use of the oil cooler to pass as an intercooler. How could you say this when you don't know anything about the owner, the purpose of the car, and why the car was built this way.

To be honest, I don't think I've seen any intercooler that small. So why pass it off as such? Rick built his car for a purpose, and he chose the ARC oil cooler to continue to and achieve that purpose. I've loved his car from the start. Clean, fresh, different. There is no way he would seriously try and pass that as an intercooler.




Back back on topic, hope everyone is enjoying the pictures. I still need to learn how to shoot better. So C&C welcome. It was great seeing the Z's and meeting everyone.

Nice pics guys! Definitely an all-star lineup there

Doug...you may have not intended it to come off as an insult but you definitely came out that way by calling something "rice" which most people know is usually used as an insult or some form of hating. Point is, you could've easily said it differently so everyone wouldn't be calling you a hater. I agree, everyone is entitled to voice their own opinion since everyone has different tastes but you have to do so in a respectful matter. Thank you for your understanding...

Now can we all please get back on topic? +1 on more pics...

point taken.. i guess everyone's description of the word rice is different..

everyone thinks that rice means big fart cans... stickers everywhere.. all show no go... IMO rice brings a broader spectrum... kinda like the Front Mount CAI.. and thats the first thing i thought of when i saw the oil cooler... thats why i suggested he get an intercooler..

again.. everyone here are like sheep.. they just go along with the crowd... a hater is someone who says bad things about someone else because they afford it themselves... like i said before.. why on God's earth would i have to hate on RickDogg's Car... certainly its not because i can't afford it... and to all the other things on his car.. why would i just pick the ARC oil cooler.. show his car on a domestic board and thats the last thing they are going after..

again.. as i said in my first post.. the car looks hot.. but the ARC Oil cooler is giving the impression of something thats not there.. and THE TECH's explanation of why the Front Mount CAI is different doesn't make any sense..

All in all.. RickDogg has hit me with two personal attacks.. amazing the amount of moderators and admin's in this thread that have posted.. no one has noted that.. but everyone feels i am a hater hater for what???

again someone please answer this question.. why do i have to hate on rickdogg?

perhaps there are different variations of what people deem to be rice but its NEVER been a form of flattery. rice is an insult anyway you slice it.

thats just your opinion man and its obvious you're the only one that thinks that way....but we're all sheep.....yeaahhhhhhh bud thats it you keep passing off your opinion as FACT which is why everyone here has disagreed with you. you basically said Rick was a "poser" by insuating that he has the oil cooler on there to pass off as an intercooler.


and please quit playing the victim here, it got old pages and pages ago.
