Why is it called ricing?
>>
Cause azns started decking out their tokyo drift cars with a bunch of unnecessary shit, and americans being the racist bigots that they are started referring to anything that's been decked out and brings bo usefulness with it 'ricing' cause Asians are associated with rice in western society.

I always thought of it as a skewing of the word "racing" in reference to the racing stripes making your car go faster meme.

Asians actually stereotype us as eating lots of bread more than anything.
Bread is to us for them as rice is to them for us.

And I mean, they're not wrong.

Asian import cars were cheap and popular with young people. Young people bought them. They were called rice burners or rice rockets because Asia = rice. Young people being the tasteless dumbasses they are started adding cosmetic alterations, spoilers, bodykits, go-faster stripes to their rice burners. This was called ricing and a backronym "race inspired car enhancements" was made up. Now the word is used, by analogy, in a computer context to refer to cosmetic modifications of the UI.

Comes from many aftermarket modifications done to Asian cars in the US. Being that those cars have a large stock of generic compatible parts and easy to modify the cars, they became known in the scene as ricing. As >>53208012 said to a degree, its more of a racial stereotype due to not because of fast/furious movie, but rather due to the abundance of cheap Japanese cars being modded. The term became popularized in the computer scene when "gaming rigs" were being introduced with retarded amounts of led lights and customizations to the case that serves no practical purpose.This is also applicable to the OS side of things when retards customize their OS with no functionality.

Because weeabos try to look asian by eating rice.

By the way, love rice it's real tasty.

Its no the origin. Its a later redefinition of the word. Everyone already knows where the origin lies, its plainly obvious. The term comes from the auto scene from the 70s when the Japanese imports were overtaking the American brands in quality/performance/price

Ok, I'll set everyone straight. Master mechanic of 10yrs here.

It originated with first Gen 4 cylinders coming on the market. American and asian would have bad carbon buildup on the intake valves causing rough running and misfiring due to the low placement other throttle body's and intake design. Oil would pool in the intake from the shit pcv systems then get sucked in to the cylinder. Causing the carbon buildup. America's solution was to use walnut shells to blast off the carbon, but still be soft enough to not damage the valves like sandblasting would. Japan had a similar fix but used rice. When you riceblast or walnut blast intake valves some reminisce will still be on the valves. Upon startup it will get burned up and smell like burnt walnuts or burnt rice "rice burner". Walnut burner sounds stupid, and rice burner sounds funny because it is slightly racist. So it caught on, and now is associated with asian vehicles. The acronyms came after, and poor people have always modified their vehicles.

Asian vehicles were cheep at the time, so poor people had them.

Oh and it transferred to computers, because of the flashy lights and stickers and modifications. Buying a shit pc then dumping all your money into it on upgrades to make it preform a little better. It is the same shit people do with Honda civics.

kek, that's not true at all.

Americans have been calling Japanese bikes and "sporty" cars "rice rockets" for decades, and that's where "ricer" comes from.

>>53223571
Yeah no shit dipshit. I said where it originated from you cuck. Late 60's early 70's from the first generation of 4 cylinders.

>>
>>53223639
Yeah but you said it comes from rice blasting the heads, which is total bullshit "let's fuck with the new guy at the shop" lore at best. The "rice" in the name just comes from general Asian stereotypes.

I'm an automotive journalist who's been in the business since the early '00s, by the way.
>>
>>53223708

Yes it did come from rice blasting the "intake valves". Then was quickly adopted because it was so funny that the Asians chose rice instead of walnut shells. IE: Americans making fun of Asians because they think "ha ha ha ching chong stupid Americans rice is better ".

>automotive journalist

Dude you have a blog. I advise you don't say that shit on /o/. If you're so knowledgeable tell me why without google, walnut blasting intake valves has made a comeback.
>>
>>53223862
Nah, I actually worked for several car magazines before the crash, now I freelance and do a lot of PR writing in the industry as well, mostly for race shops and classic car resto places.

I honestly don't deal with nitty gritty engine stuff that much, but my shot in the dark guesses would be that walnut blasting is back because of ethanol in fuel causing deposits, because of something to do with direct injection combustion chambers, because it's not as hard on aluminum heads as other media blasting, or because of some kind of environmental shit.
>>
>>53224020
OK I'll let you off the hook. But I wouldn't bring up journalism since it is so dead, and kinda sad for good writers. I just watched spotlight and it brought me back on how important it used to be.

Actually you were close, it is direct injection and poor pcv systems. Some aftermarket companies introduce a sump in line with the pcv system to try and catch most of the oil.

With direct injection the fuel is no longer being sprayed on the valves and directly into the cylinder. That little fuel clean off is no longer there allowing carbon to build up. Not as fast as the first Gen 4 cylinders but you can see problems around 60 to 100 miles. Depending on the vehicle owner.
