i wish i could agree with that, but any of you SoCal members remember Hot Import Nights? Stock integra with CF hood and racing seats and wheels. S2000 with 20s and CF wing. Mercedes Benz E430 with just 20s and Toyo tires. that's just an example of all the shitty cars that were at HIN that really pissed me off. My suspension has more work put into it than that POS integra.

if an Integra with wheels and racing seats and a CF hood (under $2000 of work) can be at the entrance to Hot Import Nights, you don't have that much work in front of you.

In most shows, it's not always what mods you have completed...it's usually about how clean the car is as a whole. Attention to detail is a must.

Cheap or free mods are always good but keep in mind using the best products for the upgrades is ultra important. Fleckstone painted dash won't get you huge points. A color matched dash painted with real automotive paint will always gather more points. Keep it clean, keep it tight and make it differant.

Most judges will look at 40 or 50 cars at a single show. Make yours stand out.

I've entered dozens of shows and delt with tons of judges. Don't be afraid to ask them what they would like to see as an improvment. Most judges will give you a few tips.

Be sure to be with the car during judging. Point out the things that make your car differant.

yeah, the thing with stock looking cars winning, is becasue its the stock cars that look the cleanest, haha. i took first place at a show and all i had was air ride, rims, and a system. but when i went to Indy, with nitrous, graphics, ya know, my purple graphics stage, i didn't even place. cuz once you get all crazy into paint and body work ect ect, you get cracked bondo on shaved area, paint runs, horrible looking kits, mis matched paint, hundreds of stickers ect ect. so stock looking cars win cuz they are clean. if you can accomplish the clean and mint look of stock, with the aftermarket work, you set.

that was just stupid....stock cars don't win big shows (HIN)...not sure what shows you go to....and if you get your work done right you don't get cracks, mismatched paint, etc....you have to be different, like someone said you need to stick out from everyone else

ok, first of all Mr 6 posts, you better watch who you come onto these boards callin stupid. secondly, if you would get your head out of your ass and learn how to read, you would see that i said "if you can accomplish the clean and mint look OF stock, with the aftermarket work, your set." i'm not saying modified cars DON'T win. i'm saying that if you are going to attack your car with 50 lbs of bondo to relocate and shave everything and its not done right.......just because you have it, doesn't mean your gonna win. i said that cars with hundreds of stickers, CRACKED bondo, and MISMATCHED paint don't win, so sometimes its not the person with the most, but the person with the cleanest, and that car may be more stock than the shitty but modified one. so next time, you need to read....then think......then post. oh yeah, and i think he was talkin to "the best of the best" so maybe you should go back into the "Got Jokes" threads until someone needs the help of a 6 poster.

awww did i hit a soft spot on ya??? hey, do you even own a galant anymore????? and the best of the best huh??? https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif ya ok.........you always think you know so much....i know we have been thru this before....
this is Leicoolya by the way https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif
i went to the last HIN in chicago, and every car that won had a TON of mods.....None of them looked stock...NONE!!!!!
so not sure what shows you go to, but now adays you have to stick out to win....can't win with air ride, rims and a system at a big show :!:

08-16-2004, 05:51 PM
yeah, no other galant owner is chicago could be so dumb, so i expected that much. ok, the cars that won.....weren't stock, of course....but, they were clean right? no big bondo cracks, paint matched....right? you need to listen. oh, and you need to stand out huh? ok.....erebuni kit....silver.....same ole wing. your car looked like mine, and every other silver G with a kit, so everyone take lessons from this guy about "sticking out." and uh, wheres your trophy?

08-16-2004, 06:13 PM
i know not to have a totaly stock car not even i am that dumb but honestly I have seen some shity ass jobs i was agreeing with him on that lik i said earlier its meant to be clean but not stock lik if the factory were 2 go with tunners thoughts 4 once cuz honstly if i could pay 2 hav the factory do a 1 of a kind job on a car i would buy it how i wanted and not change a thing but not 4 warrenty but because the car is how i want it stands out not like 1 of the 1992 accords rolling around wit a ugly green kit and black body its not working honestly :!: if from factory i could get a galant with 19s ride on 4 valve airbags nice leather interior with i dont know gucci headrest visors and door panels some tvs a ps2 or xbox a 4g63t or maybe even the vr4 tt with a manual tranny crome headers dual pipes and a jdm kit lik on the legunums a nice system not all chopy on the low note and all the little extras like carbon fiber interior trim sun roof carbon fiber evo hood bunch of little things that would make u want that on ur car ie : rear sunvisor i wouldnt need 2 plus it would b cleaner than any other car u fixed up at the tunner shop down the street

ps plz dont fight of the word stupid cuz if u really get carryied away both of u r stupid

wow talk about hating...your just mad casue i always did something that you could never do...Turbo the 6g72.....you need to grow up bro...so why are you still on this board, i mean you did sale the car, right???
or is it casue you think you know it all when really you don't know a thing...only from what the guys at the shop tell you...ha ha...poor guy :cry:
ya your right your silver kitted, cf hood, plus Ugly purple vinyl graphics was WAY cool :roll: Need some more RICE for that thing..oh wait you got the aluminum wing your set https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif

whoever said anything about a sleeper???
i sure as hell wasn't going for that look https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif

i don't know where you got the idea that "you did something i could never do, and thats why i'm mad" from. putting a turbo on a car is nothing special, i see it day in and day out. why do you think your such hot shit cuz you can bolt on a turbo kit? i don't understand it. i am friends with other galant owners that have forced induction, so that makes no sense at all considering i wasn't even sure i was going to turbo or SC. and i haven't had graphics on the car since 2002 man, almost 3 years ago, you need to get over that. and i'm still on these boards cuz i know a hell of a lot more than a lot of people. if people who have never had galants can be here, i sure as hell can be too. you need to find better selling points son, you look silly doing this.

datdude305...I'm no show expert at all but I've been in 2 shows total and I just nailed 3rd place at a decent size Slap show in MD. I was in the 4 door import class and there was some pretty nice rides there. If you hit my www link below you'll see what mods I have bro.

if you don't wanna read it titan, look up and to the right.....theres a fucking X, click it. i said i was done, but no, Mr. HIN needs to keep it goin. i gave my opinion on the actual topic. it was him who needed to go talkin shit. and this wasn't an old beef, cuz originally, i didn't know it was him. so, you can thank Mr. HIN for the drama war. i was just defending myseld and clarifying all the false statements.

if you want to win a show you need to have a COMPLETE package (exterior, engine, interior, etc.) ORIGINALITY IS KEY.

so far, i've only managed 2nd place at D1 but hopefully i'll get that 1st one day when i finish EVERYTHING.
