Nissan: Stock is best; tuned is beastly, and all in the instructions!

In the Nissan GT-R's owner's manual, this illustration shows what Nissan thinks of tuners modifying its GT-R...

You all have probably seen that Toyota Corolla that has a gigantic wing on its back and a roof/hood scoop, or that Cadillac Escalade with overchromed wheels that spin of their own accord, or even that Kia Sentra with a Ferrari emblem, right?! These three cars have been modified rather tastelessly to, in the eyes of their owners, "look hot".

These interesting cars, called rice burners, apparently made Nissan put the above picture in their ravishing, new GT-R's (next-gen Skyline GT-R) instruction manual! As you can see, the picture depicts an atrociously modified Nissan GT-R that has been X-ed out, with some Japanese on top. The Japanese translates to:

"Incorrect Modification"
"Illegal" (in Nissan's eyes) "Modification"

This is a humorous instruction manual illustration that has a good point! Finally, a reward for geeks like me who always read the instruction manual for our purchases before setting them up (as if reading the manual isn't reward enough, so you don't get stuck in the middle of setup!)!
