Not all tuners are jerks - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #26613 16 posts Started by Redline_Racer
so recently I went up to michigan on a little vacation. I was about 30 miles away from my dads house when my rim throws 2 lugs and my tire shreds up get my self straightened(sp) out and I pull off. well after about 20mins of sitting on the side of the road trying to get reception on my phone ( &%*# you verizon) this guy in a fixed up eclipse pulls up behind my car and gets out and offers to help me out well he looks in his trunk but he has no spare, it prolly wouldn't have fit anyways. so he gives me a ride to the tow place and I get my car towed to my dads. I tryed to give him some money but he wouldn't take it. I guess not all people with fixed cars are assholes. Thank you Eclipse Guy.

I've got to say experiance has a little bit to do with it too. At least for me it does. It's no wonder so many people hate us.

Live Free, Be Happy
Personally ive been more inclined to help people after I started working on my car. Before I was rather apathetic. And it really isnt in my nature to help people
yea they are 5 lug.. maybe? not all of em are assholess.. i only hate the ones that act like there the best when there driving a 92 civic..
most of the tuners around here are full of themselves. Also there is VERY FEW people who have nice looking cars. Most are either bondo buckets or different colors. For the most part the nicest cars here are the suped up muscle cars.
Most "hooked up" cars are owned by teenagers who are more likely to be an ass. No offense to the teenagers but its just the way it is.

diff offset
celi - 5x100
eclipse - 5x114.5 or some weird shiz. tried to put my old rims on my g/f's eclipse
I think that people that fix up cars are more inclinded to help because we have probibly all been there (with a busted car on the side of the road) so we understand that chit happens, plus I think eclipse people are pretty nice in general I work with some people that are in that crowd and there pretty cool.

its the civic people that are a$$e$, jk. who knows everyone is diff.

probilby lucky that a cop did not pull up, I bet if a cop saw ya on the side of the road he would have though bad about ya and been a dick, but who knows, I like to think everyone has a good side.
I think its universally accepted that civic owners are a bane on humanity.
Sorry but Im not stopping for anyone-- im not about to get raped or something...


Ive stopped on a highway once for two younger guys. and sometimes if I see someone in a parking lot with trouble then ill stop but if its on a freeway I wont stop most likely.

Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City
