I do not know if this has been posted elsewhere but I just stumbled onto a video of an Amuse RS-Silent exhaust:

i'm okay with the look right now, it's not a 'buy' for me yet though...i'd like to see other offerings come out too before i really take a hard look at body kits like this.

where's top secret?!

If I could get that rear harness bar in steel tubing with carbon fiber wrap, I would buy that ****. I just want a GD harness bar for my Bride's. :) About to drill anchor bolts and eye hooks through the stock one.

I am still learning myself so forgive me of any horrible explanations.

The way that the Japanese language is setup, each symbol represents a consonant and a vowel, to form a full syllable.

For example, thank you is a-ri-ga-to-u ありがとう

Japanese enunciation requires a consonant and a vowel to be paired together. I still don't understand the full logic behind it, but basically, with a word that ends in a consonant, the Japanese cannot leave it as is. It is natural for them to end almost every single word in a vowel by just throwing one on at the end.

Again, sorry if this explanation isn't up to par. A few more visits and I should be more suited to answer your question :tup:

holy CRAP that new spoiler is SICK. i want it. how much? it just makes the Z so much more sexier, more porsche'esque in a way. that angle looked almost like the back gt's but any more picture from different angles?

kenchan 10-19-2009 09:41 PM

370ztune- thanks for the explanation... i guess a country that calls Bride (Burrito) and Impul (in peru) i suppose it's okay... :D

Just a quick note:

(Edit: you're right about Amuse! I read the wrong company (笑) )

About ending in a consonant. There's plenty that end with ん, or 'n'. 簡単 = かんたん = kantan = easy.

But it is true, the phonetic of thingsl ike BRIDE (ブリッド?) and Impul (インプル) are kinda weird in that they have vowels at the end. That's just the way they're pronounced. Dunno.

I don't want to write a doctorate thesis here on the Japanese language, but Hunter...you're close, but not QUITE yet, haha. もっと勉強しろ!(笑)
If you have some questions about Japanese, feel free to PM me (good practice for me too, I'm studying for JLPT Level 1 this year!) :)

でもアミウズってベスモ言ってはったで.

phelan 10-19-2009 10:53 PM

...
本当だ!ごめん、間違った。。。かな?

Wait, I might still be right on this one. The tuning shop in Japanese is called パワーハウス・アミューズ

Powerhouse Amuse. It's still not amiuzu, it's amyuuzu. http://www.webamuse.co.jp/

Bah @ Japanese. Back to studying for me :D
