The act of purchasing and
installing aftermarket Japanese domestically produced racing products (tuning goods) for the sole purpose of
decoration on an import vehicle. One involved in Real.True.Tuning. is only concerned with projecting (see poseur) the image they use their modified car for what it was engineered for – Circuit racing, Time Attack, HPDE, etc. All the while maxing out credit cards in order to pay for low production, high cost, circuit oriented racing parts from various credited racing “boutiques” or companies (ex. ARC, Spoon Sports, Mugen, Volk Racing, etc) found in Japan.
Real. True. Tuning. can be seen at various static display type events but never at a racing circuit. Areas like a large
parking lot, convention center, or parking garage are ideal conditions for Real.True.Tuning.
"Wow I just went to the Nissei
car show and saw a sweet S2k covered with boutique tuning goods. It had Spoon fashion bars, CWest
appearance spoiler, ARC dress up engine plates, and
one of those awesome J's Racing sounds tubes. Thats some sick Real.True.Tuning."
