Hin

[onelatin8ball]

So is any one going to HIN this year? If so are you going to enter your car or just look?

:dunno:

[VWcabiCHIK]

gaaaay

[GDM Z28]

im going dawg i got my mad tyte sparkle body kit and my fake bov and the spinner muffler lip.

[V6 SSTANG]

Ill probably be going, not entering the car this year though.

[ssp_lancer]

there actually screener the cars they let in this year...should be alot better now...

[Yani]

if you have no rice your not allowed in.... should be a great show.

[M.A.R.C.]

It will be different

[BONH]

maybe if i get my super troop 2 club bodykit before then, maybe.

[OfourTHREEfive]

ill be going despite the rice it was fun last year..

[Antonio]

its november 25, show is december 12. im sure its WAY too late to enter a car.

[imp0rt_tunerz]

ehh despite all you rice haters.... i think some of the shit you see at hin is great works of art.

it takes time/money and 2363621 hours of effort to make there cars so flasshhy and unique.

but id never do that shit to my kaaa,,, hahahah

we need a 'jdm car show' =]

[aSiAnRiCk]

funny how some of you who's bitchin will still go to the show

and to those who won't, who the fuck cares? just don't go! they still gonna make their $ without you or not.

[Antonio]

hahaahaha nicely put. but yeah and then there's the people who are like.. if its not free i wont go, i usually get in free, i aint paying for that shit!!

hey some people dont like it some dont. ive entered cars there when i worked for certain companies and working the booths was great.. taking pics of hawt girls and shit..:D havent worked the show in 2 years tho. so if i go ill have to pay this year again :(

[Robi]

I went once, payed my way in as well.

Lesson learned.

Never ever again, not even for free. My eyes seriously hurt after I left.

I dunno, its just NOT healthy.

[imp0rt_tunerz]

any car show is fun imo

[low97accord]

yea car shows are fun...i might go if i get te hook up

[onelatin8ball]

its november 25, show is december 12. im sure its WAY too late to enter a car.

It is a little late to enter the show. I was just wondering if any one had pre-register. Some times the day of the show they let in a few that didn't pre-reg.

Come on now HIN is a all JDM show after all JDM is the new RICE

[TypeRKoncepts]

ill only go again if i enter a car... its worth it more that way. but paying 25 just to get in is gay. i see more interesting cars at towers.

[M.A.R.C.]

it's $25 to get in!?!?!?!??!?! wtf!!! wow. for the car show... yeah it's not worth $25... sorry. i usually get in free some way or another and it's fun to kick it with friends that are there or entered. but if i had to pay i doubt i'd go. hell doubt i'm going this year.

[RENN112K]

ill be there... my car is on display at the Euroteck Motorsports booth!!! Oh btw, theres probably a lot of rice on the JDM side but there should be some hawt ass Euros there this year!!! This year, there was a screening process be4 they allowed cars to register... it should be better!!!

[DIENOW]

IMO...HIN is a fun car show. Theres alot of cool JDM shit to look at...the sweet drifting cars that u see in the mags...The models...free stuff....and then u have some crazy ricer shit to balance it all out..lol.

BUT paying $25 to get in though is murder,..i agree
wth that (although i dont pay jizack! :run: )

[Trspeed3]

thanks in advance

[RENN112K]

[RENN112K]

you need to email them pics of your car and get an approval before they let u register... they are enforcing a tough screening process this year.... THANK GOD!!

[Mikey]

i betcha the show will still suck

[RENN112K]

i betcha the show will still suck

if theyre not giving away blow jobs, its more like a few hours of agony.



unless you really like hearing whatever the girl has to say. but in my experience, the pretty ones are more bearable when they dont talk.......

youve been hanging out with teh wrong pretty ones... my experience with pretty girls has been very flirty and usually ends with a nice "conversation"

[FBP EM1]

i wasnt going to go, but i received a call from the firm that does the advertising for HIN and answered a couple of questions and qualified for a free "vip" pass, so once I get that then I'll the other ticket to take the lady

[JDM Isuzu]

I'll be there showing. You all need to stop cutting this show down. Rice will always be there, they need it to attract new and un educated people. Everyone has thier own taste. The cars will be really clean and well done this year, and BTW the SHOW cars that are only SHOW cars aren't rice, they are SHOW CARS, only for SHOW.

i saw your car there yesterday...looks and sounds MEAN!!!


Anywho.... I'll be out there today. From what I saw yesterday at roll in, this should be the best HIN that Miami has ever seen yet. I encourage everyone who can learn to appreciate car shows and boobies to come out and check it out.

[Trspeed3]

I left my car there yesterday...theres maybe about two hondas there...the new honda of the year is the srt4........Theres a couple silvias and is, and gs...and i cant forget the german cars......its gonna be off the chain tonight....hope to see some of you there........

Hmmm spend 30 bucks on a ticket plus parking or wait till tomm for everyone to post pics?


Survey says?

Survey says Asian hood ornaments with implants that you would rather see in person..

Though i don't feel like going either.. I'll wait for pics.

[Yotabendiga]

it'll basically be the same thing like every other car show but each person is there own ull either enjoy it or not ill just wait for the pics

[RENN112K]

nice to see you all knock on HIN based on past shows... i can see hte frustration!! I dont think i saw any civics and such with wacky hood ornaments and cottom jizzing out of the APC mufflers... this was a really different show...Anyways, if you are an Import or Euro fan, you have seriously got to kick yourself in the ass if you missed HIN this year. Bimmers outnumbered hondas... quality of the vehicles were way above par. I must say that this is by far THE BEST Hot Import Nights that Miami has ever seen. All due to several factors...they finally got judges who have done their homework and know what to look for, they had a screening process for cars pre-registration, and they used a larger part of the facility. I was extremely impressed... this could have been my last year at HIN if it was going to be like last years, but since they finally got it right, I'll be there for following years to come.

Well, if someone could point me in the direction of how to post pics, I have a few pics worth sharing on the digi cam.

Overall, I had a pretty good time. There were a couple of cars that didn't need to be there IMHO, but overall the quality of the cars there was great.

And wow, the amount of M3's there was amazing. They took up like a quarter of the floor!

I remember walking by your spec a couple of times. There were a couple of guys there, so I asked them if the spec was one of theirs, and they said you'd be right back.

I guess I shoulda went back over there, I have a spec too. Same color.....mines an '02. Is yours an 02 or 03?

not trying to ruin the mood, but this was my first HIN and might be my last, at least as a spectator. yeah the cars were cool an all, but i was expecting more. guess i hyped it up to be more than it was. in my opinion its another tower shops just with some fine asian chicks and a bikini contest

dont be discouraged...when u enter a show like this there is always going to be someone bigger and 10000x's better...

you should go for the fun of it, because tthe prize $ is a joke.. 1500 to best of show wtf is that? jay laub's rx-7 has over 100K in mods too it..what is 1500 bucks to him ya know?

Does anyone know if the EFR car club/models had pictures or posters?

[+Rav3n+]

i think they were just giving out pens + tshirts

[slowhatch]

This was my first HIN and my last,there was just one car I really liked the EG with a K20 on boost,also my car got towed and had to pay $175:mad:

[+Rav3n+]

Since when did they combine like huge sections into one huge one. they used to have like best civic and shit. y'd they clump all hondas together all nissans together and so on?


maybe at other shows u go to but its never been that way at HIN for the 3 years ive been going...

[+Rav3n+]

no..they dont do that either...

wtf shows do u go to..

lol

I got robbed for a paint job and a Gucci interior and a stereo with a wiring mess.

[RENN112K]

you bitch enough and you get better more knowledgable judges... they had a single judge for all the VIP cars and he was very knowledgable.. in fact he works for Dupont Registry.

I was one of the judges there and I would def. agree that your truck should have won but the way that shows score a car gives him more points because he has more things done to it. your car is clean and has awsome motor work but when has a clean car won? thats just the way shows are. Why do you think that crazy eclipse with the s15 taillights wins HIN so dam much. The car looks like doo doo as a whole but since it has so much dam stuff done to it, it wins because of points. :jerkit:
If I had my way the Silver DC2 with the ITR conversion would have won best honda.

sad but true but bling=win 99% of the time:(

[onelatin8ball]

Not always at HIN is more who sponsors you

[DIENOW]

Somone should start a car show up that is dedicated to "clean loooking" cars only,..with bad ass engine work...i would pay $20 to go to that. And some Good looking models...not no trashy big titty looking hoes.

[SpdRcrChk]

omg people it's not hard to understand.

IN YOUR CLASS...whomever has the most points wins.

On a judging sheet you have a possibility of a certain total amount of points. THose points are given from exterior, to interior, to wheels, to stereo, to undercarriage, etc.

The more points you can score in each category, the more points you will have in the end. It doesn't matter if you're sponsored...if you can't score the points you're not gonna win.

CLEANLINESS of the sections in question is another big part. If you leave your doors closed because you don't have gucci interior, you're skippin' out on points that could be assessed for cleanliness. By the same token...if both you and your buddy have custom paint jobs, but you have orange peel and his is smoother than a baby's butt, then guess who's gonna score more points?

What class your in....you have to take a look at the competition and make sure that you're classified in a category that you should be classified in. If there's conservative, moderate or mild categories that you feel you should be in...then bitch about it. If you take a look around you'll notice that sometimes the people that score the points score them for a reason. Someone sportin' HRE's isn't gonna get the same amount of points as someone sportin' Rota's.

[SpdRcrChk]

i do. but i aint tellin you.

[SpdRcrChk]

Interior, Exterior, Wheels, Undercarriage, I.C.E., Engine.

It's based on a likert scale. I don't remember the exact amount of points. But figure, each one of those sections is worth between 25-30 points or so.

i asked angel to explain it to me the other day cause i always wondered what they judged it on. if i was a judge id give all those ricey ass cars 0 across the board.

[SpdRcrChk]

that's the thing, u really can't. because the more stuff that's done, and if it's done right....u gotta give points. for example....if i have a sick ass M3 on HRE's....but it has no exterior mods..all i can do is give him max points on wheels and exterior CLEANLINESS....but i can't give him points for exterior mods. So if there's an M3 w/some stupid ricer kit, but its well painted, and nice and clean too....guess who's gonna get more points.

[GDM Z28]

thats gay......car shows are wack lol

if it werent for the VIP class, I wouldnt even compete!!! The beauty of competingin teh VIP class is that the judge was an accredited judge from Dupont Registry and knows exactly what to look for when it comes to VIP (euros and luxury) tuning. VIP was very well organized and with no complaints. Ive been doing carshows for 3 years, and this was by far the absolute best organized one. The versitility of VIP class is just awesome. Now you dont have to be rice to win... take an example, you can mod with good looking point winning mods that dont compromise performance. My vision when I bought my C32 was to build a car that can take home a HIN/VIP trophy and still be able to kick ass and take names out on the road in a daily driver. Best thing about VIP class, stupid LV interiors, and way overdone ICE actually hurts scroring in certain classes.

[SpdRcrChk]

keep in mind also that within each category is subcategories too. like for Exterior....you body kits or w/e u have lets say for example 0-10 pts. then under that same category u have cleanliness. and under that same category you have paint, etc. etc. so it's kinda tough. that's why ricey shit wins in certain classes. they've got more stuff to be judged on.

yes but that's a class that only certain cars enter. most people are classified in other categories and they don't realize what they're up against.

[RENN112K]

i kno exactly what you mean and i absolutely agree ... which is why i'd only compete if i was doing VIP. :smile: There are really 2 types of cars, show cars and clean street cars... VIP combines the elements of both, though unfortunately (or fortunately to some), you have to have a BMW/Mercedes/Lexus/Volvo/Audi/etc....... to enter in that class...but thats 1 thing i love about it...it was made for us true Euro-tuning heads out there. This is where Europrojektz, Eurotek, TWC, etc.. take honors.

[SpdRcrChk]

u're lucky to have that category, i'm sure alot of people wish there was somethin' similar to that. But most street racers could give a damn about car shows, they've realized how it works. Sure some people go just for the hell of it to have fun or w/e. But for those people that are wondering, it's not very easy to win, you really have to go all out, or be in a category where the competition is not much in order to win. That's why it's important to make sure you're classified in the right category. :)

[RENN112K]

and thats the secret to success when it comes to car shows... mod per catagory!!! :smile:

Then how did I get 2nd place at DUB last year without what I have now? It's called good judges who know thier shit, I was up against truck with massive wheels paint and the works. Even at Nopi I got Best Truck and I was up against some very well done trucks. Oh and how the fucked did I even place 3rd at Tuner Bash in the Other Import Class againsn't a shit load of WRXs and Tibruons??? Because the Judges know thier shit and aren't bling king wanna be's.

I was one of the judges there and I would def. agree that your truck should have won but the way that shows score a car gives him more points because he has more things done to it. your car is clean and has awsome motor work but when has a clean car won? thats just the way shows are. Why do you think that crazy eclipse with the s15 taillights wins HIN so dam much. The car looks like doo doo as a whole but since it has so much dam stuff done to it, it wins because of points. :jerkit:
If I had my way the Silver DC2 with the ITR conversion would have won best honda.

But here's the thing, he only had a paint job(not body mods like kits or moldings) just paint, a set of spinners and a Gucci(proablly fake) interior o and the ghetto rigged stereo with teh wires everywhere.

I for one have a paint job, aero kit, hood scoop, roll pan all welded in an nicley molded, and some body lines were shaved and kept clean. He had no engine work what so ever, I am fully "decked" out and everything that is alummium is polished to a mirror finsih, my interior had rarer parts than his Fucci interior that is just GAY. My stereo is actually clean and you can't even tell there are wires, and my wheels and suspension and brake parts should count for something right? Common you all know that it was total BS what happend.

OK then, explain how a paint job and interior gets more points than, engine work, body work and paint, intereior, stereo, suspension and brakes and wheels?
I did have my doors open, my WHOLE truck is spotless, you all know that, even though it's a daily I keep that shit cleaner than a fuckin operation room at John Hopkins. That Chevy was dirty in the wheel wells, door jams and didn't have anything done to the engine, suspension, brakes, and to top his off his "stereo" wasn't even hooked up, I looked that truck up and down, it was dirty and a mess.

I am just speaking the truth, I got ripped off and everyone knows it. How the fuck does a stupid POS Chevy Avalnche win an god damn IMPORT show. That doesn't make sense. They need to get qualified judged out there, not ghetto wanna bes and freakin people who think they know there shit. I wish Angel would have judged my truck, he knows his shit, not that ghetto kid who looked high. I just don't understand why an AMerican truck won an IMport show where there was a Japanese truck there that was cleaner and that had more people looking at it.

End, HIN sucks, NCCA need to step up and start to hire qaulified judges and stop letting American cars/trucks into import shows, they have thier own shows.

Judges who judge by NCCA standards HAVE to give points according to the mods, cleanliness etc. I don't know how well the other cars looked, how well their mods were executed etc. So maybe that might be a reason.

You're not fully decked out, your dad is. And like i said, if they're judging by NCCA standards, then the more "bling" mods are gonna score more points. You have stock paint, guess what...if someone's got some crazy color scheme they're gonna get more points. Period. But anyway...in car shows....and i've seen this happen alot...there are many times when, when the people that tally up the point sit down and discuss winners.....sometimes points don't even count. I've heard this happen before.....they'll just pick whomever they think is more worthy. From the looks of your dad's car.....it should have been in a conservative class.

If his total points for paint scored more than your total points for all the other stuff, that's how he wins. simple. Exterior mods and paint might be worth more in TOTAL than your brakes or other crap. For example, there may be a possible total of 30 pts for paint and exterior, while there may only be 10 total pts possible for other sh*t. U get it?

truth...there are some judges that know their shit and there are some who don't. The downfall of the judging comes in the likert scale. Not everyone assess points in the same exact fashion. And of course I agree there WERE some people judging that didn't know their sh*t. If they hadn't offered me more cash to help out at a booth, I would have been judging as well.

You do realize that if you have any objections to the results that you can ask to see your score sheet, and compare it to others.

Shit happens. Your dad's truck shouldn't be a show truck anyway.

[SpdRcrChk]

keep in mind people that engine mods, if they're things you can't see (i.e. pistons, rods, sleeving, clutch, etc. etc.), you can't get points for it.

[JDM Isuzu]

Judges who judge by NCCA standards HAVE to give points according to the mods, cleanliness etc. I don't know how well the other cars looked, how well their mods were executed etc. So maybe that might be a reason.

BTW it's OURS #1, and #2 why shouldn't it be at a show? We already have 8 Trophies, we had nothing else to do so we decied to go to HIN and check it out. So then why is it that at other shows we are always in Mild, conservative it s truck with bags and wheels, no body mods or anything. If you would have read you could see that we have actual body mods and BTW the paint isn't stock -_- and yes I get the points system, but if it's a total of 100 lets say, how does 30 get more than 70 or so? I think these shows r rigged.

[SpdRcrChk]

because shows are for ricers (for the most part). take it as a compliment. It's not hard to see why sometimes the ugliest most retarded and overdone stuff wins. for someone who has nice clean taste...and doesn't have the luxury of being able to enter the "VIP" class...most of the time, it's a waste of $$. Not to mention the majority of these shows are extremely disorganized......it's just a way for someone to make money.

Really? how or when can i do that? cause i have an objection about something too...

[SpdRcrChk]

You're supposed to contact them. A few posts ago i posted a link to the NCCA website. You might be able to get some help through there. BUT...for the most part....if you're gonna ask to see your score sheet...then you should do it right after the trophies are handed out. Otherwise, those score sheets, by now, might have been tossed out.

I asked for them and thuer said I would have to contact NCCA for it because the guys didn't have them that night...what is that?

[EFRiNa]

... i asked the judges when they were calling out for trophies for the score sheets... they told me to contact ncca and to have them e-mailed to me... so asking at the show would've been a waste.

[SpdRcrChk]

i think that's b.s.

laziness on their behalf in my opinion.

but go ahead and contact them via their website and see what happens.

i happened to also go and personalyl speaking, i really did think your truck shouldve won just on the simple fact that its something different. we see hooked up escalades with gucci this and spinner that everyday on MTV and what not. i dont know about the shows being rigged, as i know for a fact they follow some credentials. like everyone else has stated, more bling=more points. anyways, i took 2 pics of ur car while i was there. here they are in case u want them.

That show is fixed! HIN knows who is going to win before the people come in to see the show. If you go to the show the only 2 thing you came hope to come out with is your picture take and come out in a magazine or get one of the half naked girls to take a picture on you car

[SpdRcrChk]

it keeps the ricers comin'!
