They raise them up like that on purpose... I saw an article on rx7club years ago about how it'd most likely cut your head off if you were in a front-end collision.

Natural selection.

 

Like Llama said its done on purpose.

Its teh madd tite JDM hood prop!!! y0. :| But really I guess its to give it a "cowl induction" type of thing. Looks retarded. imo.

 

Its to allow for extra cooling.

 

I guess thats why they do it, and not you.

 

Haha you are idiots. It's my car and yes it's an antique civic lol. I like it. I wasn't showing it. I just payed 5 bucks to park over there. I realize it's not show worthy. I shimmed my hood not just for cooling issues,but because my wastegate was putting a dent in my hood. I recently got a 90 bend so it would mount off to the side. Thanks for the compliments though!!!!

P.S. Lv2 Turn. Are you the one that drives around in the del sol? If so, It looks good.

And big byrd, what's your name? I kept looking over because I thought I knew you.

 

As a bio guy I can appreciate that statement

Cooling for a motor thats not even putting out much?...wtf

I mean neat concept, but not so cool to actually do it.... It just makes the car look that much more 'beat' up and salvaged like.

 

I knew it!!!

 

gaush jus luv dem men u gaut me

... i know you've been on my trail, I could take your hints..

 

That truly creeps me out because you're almost too good at actually typing it out like that.

 

What can I say, I pride myself in my impersonation skills.
