skyline GTR technically not a ricer because it has the grunt and the handling to go with the styling.
ricer is someone who mods a stock car with no performance increase (just big exhaust, stickers and wing)
skyline GTR allready tuned as stock.

monster belair what type of shell are you looking for?

To tell you the truth, the word "ricer" kinda offends me. Its almost discrimination, but it doesn't matter. But yea, the skyline is not a "ricer". The supra is not a "ricer" either. According to shell shocked's definition, none of the painted bodys here are "ricers" unless someone puts a huge mock pipe on the body, and other items for looks only and not for performance.

Hey calvin, I think you exceeded your bandwith on those pics... switch to some other image hosting site with no limit bandwith.

for those in the UK Kamtec sell dodge charger shells that fit road cars just fine. I got mine through today. It's ABS, not Lexan, but still looks really good (much better than in the picture they use to advertise).

just thought I'd mention it..

I lengthened my Maximum ST's chassis and put on a 69 Charger body like the one above, but without the blower. Metallic black with tinted windows and a white R/T stripe. To do the Charger body justice I also dropped in a hpi .21 big block + a 2 speed trans to relieve the old .12 powerplant.

WHAT !!! a ricer is ANY car from the orient, (this is normal sized road cars)
putting body styling and big exhausts on cars with little engines is what KIDS do cause they can't afford the insurance on a big fast cars, as with all things its a matter of personal taste
