So my deal is, I'm looking into what my next car is gunna be, and I was thinking of getting out of the Honda game and moving into RWD and I've always loved the S13.
I'm looking to drift, not publicly obviously (im one of those rare honda drivers that only raced and drove like a a$$ in vacent lots and tracks), and I am not too sure where to start.
After the summer I'm gunna make enough to have about $8-12,000 I wanna spend on a car/slight build, and I'm not certain where I wanna start. So far all I know is I want a
-S13
-Engine swap --was thinking SR20DET is the obvious answer, but is a RB26DET too impractical and put me too far over my head
-Suspension/brakes/wheels/rims
-Slight interior build (set of sparcos, shift knob, nothing that intense)
-and maybe a JDM silvia front end conversion
can anybody give me some insight on this and/or point me in the right direction? What would be some good ideas for each of those categories? Thanks alot

be wary of drift taxors.
just like there are people who, put hatch tax on the ek9's and eg6's.

And ya I plan on doing engine last. The way I figure it I want my car to feel the way I want it to then I give it the power I want now that its set up to handle it. Thats why I didnt do a swap into my civic yet.
I know swap wise that I dont want to stick with the KA. the fact that its a single cam and it puts out about 140 ( i think that was the number) reminds me too much of my civics D16Y8. From what I understand the SR20 is the most realistic swap for a s13 right?

I think you are severely overestimating the D16...
PS Don't you mean Y7? You stated that its not swapped.
if i am not mistaken, the 99 civic (non Si, correct?) came with a d16y7.

glad you came to your senses
as for swaps... an sr20 will be the easiest swap, thats why its so common. it depends on YOU though. if your big into track running and stuff and you have the cash time and know how then go rb26 if you want, but if its just a DD and common track star an sr will do fine, thats if you want to swap, since ka-t was mentioned earlier.
like i said, welcome! stick around and have fun

especially when you dont even have a 240 yet.
but hey, do what you want. read up on stuff. listen to what people say, but dont get an attitude when someone says something you dont want to hear.
with that being said, honda sucks, and ka(t) rules.

In other words, you knew your car couldn't beat anything on the road with it's paltry 90FWHP (if that!) So instead you hung out in parking lots using zip ties and colored hose covers to make your wiring harness look pretty, while a couple of buddies with their own slow cars spent time changing ultra white Ebay light bulbs every 5,000 miles. HON DUUUUUH!!!

Dude, for even only 8K, if you do most of the work yourself you can have a car making 400 flywheel horsepower and looking good. In fact, for about 5-6K you can have a car that's sr-swapped already.
| Quote, originally posted by TannerDanger » |

If you're worried about money, BUILD THE KA. For the money you'll spend on even a cheapter SR20 build, you could have a built block KA putting 350HP (and around 320 TQ!!) to the wheels, which is quite a bit in that 2600 lb car. That's C5 z06 territory. KA-T.org has a guy putting 500+ to the ground in an unbuilt block KA24DE-T. The SR20 is a great platform, but now that the aftermarket has warmed up to the KA's potential, it's really the way to go, especially for drifting! BTW, stay away from the RB26 swap -- you're too poor. Remember, you're talking about a great deal more than an element filter and glass-pack muffler on your VROOM VROOM Honda. You're now talking about REAL cars with REAL maintenance. an RB26 will cost you a ton of money even after the swap is done. Besides, once the swap is done, KAT and SR20 owners will be smoking you left and right. Dollar for dollar, the RB26 is not a good deal. Go that route once you've got 30+ in the bank and can afford to build it, otherwise you'll have an expensive and complicated effin project car that only makes about 420 to the wheels. RB25 and RB20 are pointless swaps now that the KA (almost same displacement as RB25) is well supported now. Trust me -- CAR=2500, motor/tranny build=3000, T3/T4 hybrid turbo and a 3 inch intercooler=600.

Why? so it can look like and old Honda wannabe? Maybe you should use some red electrical tape and make a wicked cool racing stripe or two also. How about a Supra-style spoiler on your hatch?
Seriously though, why would you want to make an old car look even older? Why not spend that few hundred bucks on a PAINT JOB, or some dyno time?

Apples to oranges, man... You're talking about a car that's grossly underpowered vs a car that's just underpowered. The old KA24E rattletrap made 135HP and 160 TQ. HP-wise, it's similar numbers to a D16 with intake, headers, and exhaust. the TQ numbers, however, destroy the weak econobox D16 -- it's about 50 ft/lbs more. Wanna boost the iron block? GO AHEAD.. wanna boost that D16 block? Take it out, clean it, sleeve it, and then boost it. Then laugh maniacly when you hear "WHEEEEEE, BLUB BLUB BLUB BLUB CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP chirppp WHEEEEE!!" every time you upshift... just as that bolt-on 240 with less horsepower lets off the gas after walking you....

Let's see, aside from the lack of a good 15:1 LB:HP ratio, considered by many to be a nice ratio for an entry-level sports car, these cars are well-balanced, rear-wheel drive, with good steering feel, supportive seats, low center of gravity, decent suspension design and in many cases a pre-existing LSD. What exactly else does a "real sports car" need? And you must be blind, because a stock Honda civic looks anything BUT sporty...

It's doable bro...
From my G35 coupe:
19x8 + 19x9 staggered rims/tires new from Wheelguys=$2000 shipped.
Tokico shocks/struts with Eibach springs = $740 together
(forgot brand) drilled/slotted rotors, surfaced $200
Ceramic heat-dissipating pads = $175
I installed everything myself and didn't have to pay labor except my time... although as you can see above, it's definitely doable!

of course i made a point, your attempts at t3h funnay were not amusing. its not really cheaper to build a kat over swapping an sr, and without elaborating on how built you want teh ka-t, you cant determine which one costs more. theyre both good engines and in most cases theyre both cost effective. |
A KA motor built with rods, rings, pistons, connecting rods, valves, retainers, springs, cams, and a valve job will run you about 3 grand, which is only a little bit more than a red top swap. This build would pretty much ensure you don't grenade your motor, and should be safe for 500+HP on a good tune.

GOOD POINT!! Awesome sports cars, at that. They totally eat up BMW and Porsches on the track. I should change my verbiage to describe Civics, not Hondas, in general, because the S2000 and NSX are other great examples of Honda's tuning prowess.

Been in the game since 1993...
1987 Mitsubishi Starion (Chrysler Conquest)
1986,1989 300ZX's
1989 RX7-turbo2
1990 (1989?) MK3 Supra turbo
2005 350Z
2003 G35
2001 S600
1995 240SX
All were modified except the S600 and one of the 300ZX's. My 240 made 380/362 @ 18PSI. I could make more but I'm using an old Starion intercooler and it doesn't seem to be working as well as I had hoped, because the graph isn't very smooth from about 4500 up. Will boost more once I get a better intercooler. I'm also going to try relocating the element filter to the wheel well and wrap my exhaust pipes to eliminate some heat.
The first time I felt real power in a 240 was 2000 when my buddy duncan351 took me out in his newly-turbo'ed 240... and we smoked a Trans-Am, a few days before it blew up. This is the same infamous 240 he has now that makes 500+ HP. Too bad he was too busy with his biz to build my 240, otherwise I'd have a 450HP beast of a KA-T already.

But ya I wasn't planning on doing the build right away. Im kinda just tryin to do some research.
But I'm not too worried about price...I plan on making about 30-40k or more from my summer job.... 8-12k is just how much I'm budgeting myself because I don't wanna over do it. Ill probably add alot more after next summer.

No. The 99 Civic EX came with the Y8, which is the best of the D series engines, especially to boost,
but I've been itching to swap ever since I got my civic and that carries over to the 240 im gunna get.

A Corolla motor can handle 400ish HP. For all of a few minutes. A stock block red top is usually only good for around 300HP TOPS, after you've done some BPUs. Don't ask me; ask anyone that actually does this stuff regularly. And.. I take it you're talking about a $2000 motor/tranny? MAYBE you can find a decent S13 red top for that, but usually they're closer to $2500. Swapping it in will cost you another grand or so - unless you do it yourself.

You're absolutely right -- Although for cars that cost $2000 and are 20 years old... the 240sx is about all the sports car you're going to get. Besides, what are you exactly comparing them to? Look it doesn't matter very much. I say "sports car", you say "sporty car." Who cares? It's kind of like saying a 250cc sport bike isn't a sport bike just because it doesn't make you lay on your face and accelerate to 60 in 3 seconds. Put a turbo on it - is it a sport bike now?

dont think that applies, you can def cheap out and get stuff like that but i was thinking FULL suspension including coilovers and new rods/braces, a decent set of wheels and tires geared for using the suspension to its max potential and a brake upgrade instead of OE replacement rotors and uprated pads to illustrate the difference between "toonerz modz" and actually building a decent setup.

Everything I've ever seen or heard points to a 280-300 HP limitation on the stock SR internals. I think we may be confusing "block" and "internals" My bad, the block maybe able to take the abuse, but you'll need to replace most of the internal parts or else they go KABOOM! 1950 shipped is a great deal.. I assume he got a 90-93 redtop that makes about 200HP. I wonder how much it will cost to get the swap done? How much will he need on top of that to build it to make 350 RWHP? If he does it himself maybe he can keep it around $2600 or $2700... although that's just the swap and wiring. Then if he wants more than 220 or 230 at the wheels, he'll need to dump some money to build it. Guess that'll put him around the $5000 range by the time he's done with it. With 5000 I'd have a KA-T putting 500 to the ground, with 450 or so torque for to make those freeway runs less fair

I assume he got a 90-93 redtop that makes about 200HP. I wonder how much it will cost to get the swap done? How much will he need on top of that to build it to make 350 RWHP? If he does it himself maybe he can keep it around $2600 or $2700... although that's just the swap and wiring. Then if he wants more than 220 or 230 at the wheels, he'll need to dump some money to build it. Guess that'll put him around the $5000 range by the time he's done with it. With 5000 I'd have a KA-T putting 500 to the ground, with 450 or so torque for to make those freeway runs less fair |

You know how it is man - any car with a lot of power breaks things regularly. I was just mentioning that SR20s are a little more difficult to get fixed because they're more rare than the KA motors. Of course, I could be wrong on this one because I don't have an SR motor. But I would imagine going to the local junk yard for a new alternator or AC compressor would be a pain!

you need to read, the sr's been swapped in for awhile. i think he spent like $500ish on other parts besides the 1950 but its not like it takes a lot more to get 350 hp. you can get 400hp out of the sr of stock block and internals. hell, you can hit 300-350hp out of a gtir turbo and s14 housing. my friend dynoed at 277hp on his sr with stock turbo and internals. i think u need to study up a little |
That's a great deal that his stock SR only cost 2500 to get in. He must have done the work himself I assume. BTW, 277 is a long way off from 350. Hey if he's making it happen then that's awesome. I can't say first hand about SR. I only know what tuner shops and info scattered around the web all point to. They all say around 280-300HP on the stock motor is the max. But hey I guess it's all in the tune

LOL The fastest car I've ever worked on was a 1992 Honda Civic VX. It had a B18B that we blew up, then put a B18C and blew it up (Ran low 13's though!), put in an H22 which it still has in it. Fastest ET 11.89@108mph. Every car can be fast and look badass too. No hate for Honda here my man. It was all in good fun and hey look at all the attention the thread got HEHEHE. Seriously I'm laughing so hard right now.

Yah I meant that you can't just go somewhere and pick up what you need -- you typically have to order and wait for it. BTW, it's not just SR motors. Anything with high power typically doesn't last as long as a stock vehicle, WITH some obvious exceptions (supra and anything with the LS/LT motors)
How much power are you putting down with your SR - just curious.

| dont think that applies, you can def cheap out and get stuff like that but i was thinking FULL suspension including coilovers and new rods/braces, a decent set of wheels and tires geared for using the suspension to its max potential and a brake upgrade instead of OE replacement rotors and uprated pads to illustrate the difference between "toonerz modz" and actually building a decent setup. |
You're right about that though! There's so much that can be done to a suspension. Typically people do shocks/springs (or coilovers), strut bar, and camber kit. And yah, some huge Willwoods are definitely a lot different than a standard 4 pot G35 setup. But the cooling of the rotors and good force from the ceramics (with some steel lines) seems pretty good for a DD don't you think? I don't think this guys likely to do a full suspension build any time soon. He's buying an S13 for a reason. Not everyone's a baller like you *grin*

funny every part for my CA can be picked up at autozone.... short of the snail, a new intake mani, and exhaust manifold. Which also is something KA-T gets to order.
your theory is that KA-T parts are everywhere? stock components arent going to do you any good when you are building high HP.
seriously your an idiot and seem to have something to prove...... other wise you would have shut your trap long ago.

Never too deeply like that into the SR -- My buddy got me addicted to the KA long before I bought one. Maybe you're making 240-ish? I guess you're dusting most stangs and a few chevy's too ha? How much do you have in your engine setup?

This is way too much fun to quit. BTW, I have heard the CA is a 4 cylinder version of an RB. Is that the case? I'm amazed you can get all your parts at Autozone. Never known anyone that has that motor, but I see people saying they are hard to find parts for. I guess that's not the case?

hear say makes you look foolish. Yes it does bare a striking resemblence to the RB series and was used in the R30-R32 skyline in a NA setup...... it isnt an RB.
it was used state side in an NA FWD layout in the pulsar it was also used in a RWD SOHC turbo lay out in the S12

You sure know a lot about your CA CA motor lol Yah it's always like that. People jump to conclusions and get way off sometimes. I think you should let what's-his-face know what you think since I believe the CA18 is even cheaper to source than the SR20. Maybe it's just what the doctor ordered!

SR20
-Cheap swap ($2500ish if done yourself)
-Instant 205hp(170whp)
-Easy to obtain 250hp from minor bolt-ons and boost(an extra grand or so)
-Parts are as readily available as the KA nowadays(not like back in the 90's)
-Rev a little higher and when built right can handle loads of power
-Easy swap compared to an RB or LS1(other common swaps)
-Can handle 350whp"ISH" on stock internals if tuned right(tuning is the most important aspect of any power increase...MOST IMPORTANT!!!!!)
-JDM (LoL I guess)
KA24ET/DET
-No swap
-Parts easily obtainable
-Easier to find junkyard parts than imported engines
-Can handle 350whp on stock internals also(WITH PROPER TUNE LIKE MENTIONED BEFORE)
-Cheaper to build for boosting stock internals(1000-3000 for boost gets you 200-300whp range)
-Easier than swapping an engine....just bolt on and tune...
-Better torque production than sr
-Iron block(no need to sleeve for most applications)...slightly heavier but iron is stronger than aluminum.
CA
-Cheap swap
-Easy swap compared to RB or LS1
-More power than stock KA
-Higher revving
-Parts are fairly easy to find
-Bolt ons can also bring you to over 200whp for relatively cheap
-Better gas mileage lol
-Can't handle as much power on stock internals or block
-When built properly and tuned good, can still put out very competitive power to sr and ka
-JDM, but a bit more rare
RB26
-Motor screams badass
-Stong block and internals
-Can handle loads of power and is reliable with it
-Parts harder to find
-Parts more expensive
-Harder swap
-More expensive swap
-More power and torque than most other swaps
-Bolt ons give you great power
RB25
-Less expensive than the RB26
-More expensive than the the other swaps
-Good power output
-Strong internals
-Parts somewhat harder to to find
-Harder than the SR or CA swap
-More displacement than SR, CA, RB20 and KA
-Bolt-ons produce great power output
RB20
-Smaller displacement than the other skyline motors
-Cheapest skyline swap
-Not as much power as the other skyline swaps
-More expensive than CA and SR
-More power than CA, SR, and KA
-Can handle good amounts of power on stock internals and block
-Still a little harder to find parts than a KA
-Parts a little more expensive than KA
-Bolt ons produce 13 sec 240's
LS motor(commonly found in camaro, firebird, vettes)
-Loads of torque
-Can pick one up for 3-4 grand with tranny and low mileage
-LS7 is can be found for only 8 grand with tranny and no miles(505hp
)
-Good reliability in stock and bolt-on form
-Easy as hell to get parts
-Harder swap than most
-Sounds down right nasty!
-Bolt-ons give great, cheap power
-Lighter than KA

I know -- this is the most ridiculous thread I've ever seen. Essentially, I intended to tease the poster, and some people took it personally the wrong way. They talk crap to me, I feed on it and send it back. Seriously, there's only like 5 posts in this thing that are worth anything LOL.
BTW, to the guy that made some comment about Myspace or my owning several cars. 1) I fly all around the country for my work. She's attending Harvard Medical, which is why she's in Boston. I live in Dallas, because the DFW hub is there, and the corporate offices where I work are located in Dallas. 2) I forgot to mention the cars that I've owned that didn't need to be mentioned: Dodge Diplomat, Chevy pickup, and a Nissan Frontier. Yes I've owned all of those cars -- the most recent was the S600, which I sold last December, since I got tired of paying for it to sit in the garage while I was away on biz trips. Once I move to Boston in the next couple of months, I'm getting a 740, and the 240 will be sold. (hooked up sports car + Boston traffic/weather/crime=rarely driven rust bucket on blocks)
I made the comment backhanding her, because she jumped in and started with me. I like to return double the insults given w00t!
BTW: GET OFF MY NUTS for a bit and let's all take a moment to pray for the possible 100,000 sad death cases in Mynamar cyclone disaster. It's a horrible tragedy.

Someone calls me a douche or any other expletive... I retort!

But if you mess with me, I'm going to mess with you back. Just like you demonstrating your passive nature with this ridiculous comment. Where have I been proven wrong that would require a personal attack as a defense? When I'm wrong, I admit it. White Comment proved me wrong earlier and my reply was basically, "my bad, good numbers." I have no issues admitting I'm wrong. There's two things going on here, little boy (girl!?). 1) We're going back and forth about different motor abilities, and 2) Personal attacks are flying flames. Learn to separate the two conversations and you'll see how silly your comment above... IS.

Exactly mang! You will notice that I only gave crap where crap was due. It's defensive in nature, which is why I didn't give you any personal !#@$. Our conversation was a [fun] heated debate over motors. You didn't make it personal.... hence neither did I!!

| idk, i reread what she wrote, i dont think she was really insulting you. and even if she was, i dont think she deserved that in return |
It sure was insulting. You'll find that until she made the rude comments, I actually applauded her for her knowledge on the CA motor, and asked for more information on it... including the statement of surprise and that I didn't really know anything about the CA. Once she made personal insults part of her post, however... the gloves came off! I don't battle half way... as it should be.
NEVERTHELESS -- If I mistook her brash comments as too personal then I'm at fault and SORRY GABBY, I WITHDRAW MY @$$ HOLE REMARK. As stated in a previous post, I actually have no doubt that you're a cool as hell chick. *hug* There, all better?

BTW, to the guy that made some comment about Myspace or my owning several cars. 1) I fly all around the country for my work. She's attending Harvard Medical, which is why she's in Boston. I live in Dallas, because the DFW hub is there, and the corporate offices where I work are located in Dallas. 2) I forgot to mention the cars that I've owned that didn't need to be mentioned: Dodge Diplomat, Chevy pickup, and a Nissan Frontier. Yes I've owned all of those cars -- the most recent was the S600, which I sold last December, since I got tired of paying for it to sit in the garage while I was away on biz trips. Once I move to Boston in the next couple of months, I'm getting a 740, and the 240 will be sold. (hooked up sports car + Boston traffic/weather/crime=rarely driven rust bucket on blocks) |
Okay look, I'll back off for now but I just want you to realize that the first post you made wasn't constructive at all. You started out by insinuating you might be joking but then barfed about 2 pages of just nonsense into the thread. It's okay to correct the countless number of people that come on here and say "I'm going to buy a 240 and swap the sr20dettttttttt, know where I can get one cheap? etc" But really, you took it too far. Also the whole "slanty eyes" comment... really dude? This is Nico not the KKK. That shiz really annoys me and I'm a cracker (ritz?) myself. Whatever, it's done now. Let this thread die.

a heated debate and disagreement between 2 or more ppl and personal attacks are two totally differnet things and each person in the debate needs to understand that and stay on one side of the road so to speak... anyone who wants to cross not understanding the rules shal be punished.

A KA motor built with rods, rings, pistons, connecting rods, valves, retainers, springs, cams, and a valve job will run you about 3 grand, which is only a little bit more than a red top swap. This build would pretty much ensure you don't grenade your motor, and should be safe for 500+HP on a good tune. |
Like i said....rambling on about things he knows nothing about.

Okay you poor arse little twat -- tell me exactly why I should spend $1,400 a month on a car that sits in a garage most of the time? Someone as poor as you should know the value of a dollar. I guess with you having been an uncultured, untraveled, stay-at-home little pubic speck... you wouldn't know that a popped collar and spikey hair is the current trend. Do you think a helmet haircut or a mullet is better? Judging by your choice of automobiles, I'm guessing you got the pickup truck and have been tooling around in that. Then since you wanted to be cool, you bought a 240, and are trying to save all your Arby's paycheques so you can buy your holy grail turbo kit. Right?
Please point out where I "[rambled] on about things know nothing of..." I was driving boosted and modified cars before you even knew how to drive. Back in the day, when cut springs, tristar rims, and Brospeed 3inch exhaust tips were the THINGS TO HAVE. But I guess you wouldn't know anything about that, eh little pup?
I changed the text color and bold for fun, just to see if my forum reader was able to do that here in the NICO forums. I wasn't aware it was wrong to use the forum's features... isn't it the same thing as using a smiley? Sit back down; your little "look at me, I'm here, too!" comments are easily dispatched.

That's absolutely why I say you're poor. You're trying to look smart by saving 50 bucks a month driving a 16 year old beater pickup that gets 25 MPG. Let's just use a little math to show how that piss-poor cop out is NOT a way to prove that you're not poor as dirt. Typical MPG for a 4 banger truck is around 21MPG, meaning you're saving 4 MPG by driving that old piece of junk. Additionally, everyone knows that older vehicles rarely get the same gas mileage as they did when they were new, meaning you are probably only getting 2-3 more MPG. In a vehicle that holds a standard 15 gallon tank, you're talking about 60 miles more per tank MAYBE. That being said, you would be saving approximately 2.5 gallons of fuel per fill up. Your truck has 350,000 miles on it, so assuming you've had the truck since new (surely impossible as you couldn't afford it), over 16 years, you're looking at an average usage of 456 miles per week driven. That means You fill up 1.2 times per week, at a cost of $3 per gallon, equaling 4.8 times per month, or a savings of 4.8*4*3=$57.60 saved per month, or about 2 bucks per day (and I'm being GENEROUS). Yah, it's not a very strong argument that you're "saving money" by driving an old beater piece of crap. Just admit the truth and embrace it drunkNun -- or should I call you JOE DIRT?

Unlike you, I spend my time in the circle of people who can afford to keep up with the latest trends. Dart bars and McDonalds are not places where you'll find people who dress like this. Top of the hubs, Hiltons, dance clubs, and expensive restaurants are the places to be if you want to see how far outdated you really are... but be forewarned, you'd have to sell your $1000 car or $150 pickup to get in! Incidentally, you may want to have a look at this list of people who have sported the 'popped collar' look.
Tiger Woods, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, The Fonz ("heeeey.." LOL), Prince Charles, Antonio Banderas, Lenny Dykstra... on and on...
How many of them are metrosexual? None... although they all do have something in common. They're all RICH. Maybe that explains why it's so difficult for you to grasp the concept of fashion... because you've never been rich. Keep driving that pickup and saving your 50 bucks a month though... you might get there (if you live to be a couple hundred thousand years old).

WOW you're in Lake Mary, FL. I was just on a business trip there a month or so ago. While I was there, I raced a red 240sx with an SR20. I was driving one of the new Chevy Malibus. First Malibu in history to actually be nice. I smoked him with the AC on and my MP3s playing through the nice stereo system. Too bad I didn't see you there, I'd have smoked you in my rental too HAHA jk

| I was looking at your cardomain page. LOL@15inch whiteboy racer rims, but the motor setup looks great. Is that web site that "sponsors" you the ones that did all the work? WOW you're in Lake Mary, FL. I was just on a business trip there a month or so ago. While I was there, I raced a red 240sx with an SR20. I was driving one of the new Chevy Malibus. First Malibu in history to actually be nice. I smoked him with the AC on and my MP3s playing through the nice stereo system. Too bad I didn't see you there, I'd have smoked you in my rental too HAHA jk |
those would be 15in wheels to thrash..... when you actually drive a car..... it tends to be rough so why buy something expensive? I got those for 50 bucks at a swap me and wraped them in $500 tires.
Those sponsors, the did help me out with the cost of the motor and stop tech rotors and since grandpa has a lift, host, and anything else I could possibly need..... why would I possibly let any other person touch my car? only people with no brain power(people like you) would let others work on something they are willing risk their life in.
you =TOTAL FAIL
so are you saying SR20 powered cars are now slower than malibus....... wow I dont even have to keep going I hope your stay was nice here.
ps this malibu

I never thought I'd see someone put that in actual context. Yes it's a fact that the more electronics you have on, the harder your alternator actually works, thus creating more parasitic drag on the engine. But were only talking about a loss of something like .1 hp here...possibly less. That's like putting "I turn all non-essential components off" on you mod list. This thread makes me LoL and also puke just a little in my mouth every time I see another post. All the work I did typing up something actually trying to help the guy just getting lost in some retarded ego trip.
HOW IS THIS NOT LOCKED YET??? 
Oh yeah and how have we come this far without seeing the dancing ban man

So you mean that you drive on your rims? How is it that you think you'll damage your wheels by driving hard? Are you offroading or jumping your car? wheels are suspended in mid air by the upper part of the tire. It's not like you're riding on them. Anyway, whatever...

Well, stock Malibu is like 250HP and Stock SR20 makes 205 so...... Yah, I think a Malibu can smoke a SR-powered car stock for stock. Although I don't know if he was running stock boost or what. The car sure looked nice though -- no body kit, spoiler or etc. Just a clean S14 with some nice rim tuck and a big IC in the front. Yah, Lake Mary was nice! Except for the heavy day time traffic, It was a nice place to stay. I was at the Hilton Embassy Suites on Shorecrest Drive. Do you know where that is? Up the road is a little Chinese restaurant that was SO good I ate there 3 times during my stay. I also went to some pool hall while I was there, but I forget the name of it. I just remember it was a little difficult to find.

You've got it all wrong, buddy. I hang out with all sorts: rich, poor, fat, skinny, ugly, good-looking. It doesn't matter to me. My making fun of your lack of fashion and funds was nothing more than a personal attack and not an accurate representation of how I really feel. Nevertheless, it seems to have had the desired effect! Sorry, I have a few cars. I don't keep nice cars any more because I'm rarely at home to enjoy them. Sure I'd buy your truck. I'm pretty sure I could buy it right now. Oops I only have $136 in my wallet right now. I had stopped by Jack in the Box for breakfast this morning. Get this though, in the time I've been posting this email, I've made another 30 bucks or so. Wash that b***h, I'm coming to COLLECT! lol jk I don't want it. 1st, if you don't like people checking out your ride, why post a link? I check out any rides. Isn't that the point of this forum; chatting and sharing car culture with each other? Oddly enough, I had guessed what the background of your car was BEFORE I clicked the link. I LOL'ed like a mofo when I saw that indeed I was spot on with my assertion that you were a Joe Dirt that just wanted to be cool so you bought yourself a bargain basement beater 240. :roflmao |

Keep talkin on that **** man...the pile is starting to get taller than you. Its obvious that you still have no idea what your talking about. If you still think a 1990 240 thats still all stock with low miles on the odometer is worth 1000 then your still just showing off your ignorance. Not to mention it's even got BOTH window stickers that were on it when it was on the lot. |
Well in that case if you found yourself a 19 year old 240sx that's got less than 100K on the odometer then I can say that's seriously awesome and you have mad skills in vehicle searching. If you think that 99% of the 1990 bone stock 240sx's available these days are worth more than 1000-2000 then YOU are the one that is deluding himself.

What excuses are you talking about? Dude, In the past 3 years I've had a 350z, G35, and an S600. I sold the S600 this past December because I was spending more in payments/insurance than your assumed monthly salary. Once I find a new job in Boston and move up there, I'll be sporting a 740. If I wasn't planning to move I'd have another car already. By the way, my income tax return for 2007 is $6401. Take that number and figure out how much I made last year, smart a*s. EDIT* forgot to mention, I witheld some earnings and have most of my savings in tax shelters.

With that said, she is not a Myspace girlfriend. We met on an airplane during one of my business trips a year ago. We see each other about 3 times per month. This month it'll be 5 times. Racking up the miles!! S**t gets expensive though, that's for sure! PEACE!

Wow, that was from a long time ago. Thanks for reminding me about it. For a while, I was selling the service of polishing vehicle parts on EBay. Since we owned a jewelry store and had a polishing machine, this was a fun additional source of income. I didn't make any real money doing it though, just about $6K or so. I could have made more, but I was kind of lazy to pick up the packages from the post office and mail them back. Hence, I kind of let it die. It was a fun hobby for a while!

If you were making as much money as you're making it out to sound. I think you'd be owing a lot in taxes, not getting a fat return. Unless you're the extremely charitable type of person that you don't make yourself out to be. Or writing everything off as an exemption. Anyways, it doesn't even matter how fat your bank account is you're still in a Nissan forum pretending to know what you're talking about.

this is about the most idiotic thing you have said to date. HP means everything right?
what part you= fail wasnt correct? p/w, traction, driver skills, and most of all the other person knowing you are racing is kind of important. No automatic malible would even have to down shift from a roll before it would attempt to pull on anything. from a dig the traction issue is going to be a ***** as all season tires on a rental is fantastic right.
btw if you are such big ballin....... why are you in the 240 land? why do you have a malibue rental? you couldnt even get a full size or v6 mustang?

While on my way to work, an Impala SS(looks like a rental car) began doing the whole speed up, slow down thing next to me. I got annoyed and didn't even downshift as I made my attempt to pass this annoying guy. He kept up with me all of a second until I hit full boost and I easily passed him. Also it was a good thing I only have 270 whp. Because according to our "SR expert", if I were to have another 10 hp on my daily driver, my engine's bound to be doomed. |
Wow, what a coincidence. I did race someone in WA in an Impala SS recently. What city did you race this Impala SS in, and I will tell you if it was me or not. Either way, with 270WHP you should be able to dust an Impala SS. You running high 12's right? Pretty quick car - good job!
Also, if you really think your motor is good for more power, why did you stop at 270? You stopped there because you thought making more power on your current setup might break things. Who do you think you're fooling, smart aleck?

| Got a question Chemao.. How do I get into owning restruants and natural gas rigs and all that stuff by the time I am 29? Cause I would LOVE to get in on that!!! I know you had to put some money out of pocket for that stuff. |
I have been working and saving money since I was 14 years old, that's how! I worked in several restaurants for a few years. My first restaurant was a very small Chinese buffet restaurant in the Fort Worth hospital district. We worked our butts off and didn't make jack. Later, I went in with two friends to open a hamburger restaurant in west Fort Worth. We ran it for almost 2 years until Fuddruckers opened up the street from us. We couldn't compete with the massive restaurant so we sold the store. A natural gas well requires no money to fund - in fact they paid me $10,000 cash to give them the lease. I could have gotten more, but I negotiated the royalties at 17% instead. The only initial cost is the land, which you needed 20 acres at that time. Now you need a minimum of 40 acres for each well. You will also need the mineral rights on the land, which is hard to find these days. You might have some luck finding a pooled well, which means you own part of the land and not the entire plot. That also means [unfortunately] that you don't get the entire royalty. My well generages about 3-4 million cubic feet of natural gas per day, which translates to about 100 bucks per million cubic feet. If you're ever in the Dallas/Ft Worth area, I'll take you to my well and show you around how it's set up and stuff. Once all the work is done you just have a pipeline leading to a fenced off set of pipes. A couple of times per day, a water truck comes to drain the water off... but that's about it. They will build a water storage tank by the well too (read: tank=pond)

Well, it's possible that he used his friend's name to purchase the house and he put in equity or work flipping it. Although you're right that it's hard to believe, but it's certainly NOT impossible. Incidentally, I have a buddy that does credit repair on the side (and he's very good at it). He charges very reasonable prices. If your bro-in-law is interested, email me his name and number and I'll put them together.

| what do you mean by drift tax and hatch tax and all that? Ive never even heard of that? And ya I plan on doing engine last. The way I figure it I want my car to feel the way I want it to then I give it the power I want now that its set up to handle it. Thats why I didnt do a swap into my civic yet. I know swap wise that I dont want to stick with the KA. the fact that its a single cam and it puts out about 140 ( i think that was the number) reminds me too much of my civics D16Y8. From what I understand the SR20 is the most realistic swap for a s13 right? |
People will try to over charge you for 240s because you can drift it, its a car people want so they will throw "drift tax" on it.
Same goes for EK9s just cuz its a hatch, and everyone wants the hatch peope will over charge for them, I saw a ek9 that was a shell for 2k, and was beat up.
Beaware of da tax

Very true. Also take into consideration that it's a front wheel drive. 500 hp would be insane in a street 240. Imagine 500 hp in a Civic with street tires. Highway runs might be fun, but from a dig you might as well have 80 hp in that Honda.

I asked him! We were at a stop light and then I asked if he wanted to run. I was going to video him with my cell phone. I got a video but it was so jerky you couldn't see anything. It would have been better if someone were in the car with me.

| Come to think of it, I might've raced our highly "successful at life" member before. While on my way to work, an Impala SS(looks like a rental car) began doing the whole speed up, slow down thing next to me. I got annoyed and didn't even downshift as I made my attempt to pass this annoying guy. He kept up with me all of a second until I hit full boost and I easily passed him. Also it was a good thing I only have 270 whp. Because according to our "SR expert", if I were to have another 10 hp on my daily driver, my engine's bound to be doomed. |
Hey I just saw your signature (I don't see any forum pictures when I'm at work - they're blocked). That's definitely not the car I raced in WA. If I saw a car as beautiful as that, I'd definitely remember it!

chemao, you do realize you are on a forum where the majority of other members are younger guys/girls or people that wrench for a living. Stating how rich you to this kind of crowd does not create respect, it makes you seem like a stuck up @sshole. If you're looking for a 'wow you're so awesome I wanna be like you' response, you might want to consider finding another forum. Possibly "www.bros.com".
What it seems like you really need is someone to beat the cat piss out of you, in a reality-check sort of way. And my poor, pickup truck driving self would be the first one to hand your face over on a platter to your orange skinned fake tittied girlfriend.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but BELIEVE IT! A cursory glance at stats shows that a redtop 240 just eeks the Malibu out by 2-3 tenths of a second in quarter mile times. I guess there's a chance that it's true 
I'm sure you would -- your car isn't stock. Maybe I can grab one of the HEMI 300C to race with, though. I raced one of the 333hp M3s in it before and he just BARELY beat me. It was fun though!

I merely stated facts in reply to other's insults. Unfortunately for them, it turned out that they underestimated who they were talking to. The "you don't have jack" turd got backhanded with, "I make more than your family combined." and the "You're a rich kid that had stuff handed to you." Got backhanded with, "I made everything I have by myself and here's how I did it."

Here's your backhand wussy man:
My address is 4341 Horizon North Pkwy Plano, TX. Bring it on.
BTW, she's Asian and the wedding lights were orange. No, they're not fake. Natural C cups on a 5'2 Viet girl with an amazing figure and the sweetest most loving personality. She'll be here next weekend. Why don't you swing by then so she can watch us go at it. Let's sweeten the deal.

2) She's in school to become a nurse practitioner (read: 100K/year)
3) I wish my girl was doing nails; I'd open a nail shop. Our friend in Atlanta [who we went to see this past weekend] made $800 on Saturday.

Although I don't think it matters what color dress you wear when you get married, she did not get married. She was one of the bride's maids.
I never said I'm rich. People assumed I was rich. I'm not going from Honda to Nissan. I'm going from a Mercedes S600 to a BMW 7-series.

The amount of bull**** and misinformation in this thread is mind boggling.
The guy who said that SR stock internals are only good for 280-300rwhp obviously hasn't done enough research. SR internals can easily run happy at 300-400 rwhp, conservatively. Of course, the tuning is what makes or breaks any motor, and we can safely say that even the KA has been able to safely run north of the 400 mark on stock internals.
That being said. This thread is full of **** and should be locked to hinder the spread of misinformation, as I seem to be allergic to stupidity.

Great, she graduated for what, nursing? If she is making anything less than 60K then she sold herself short. You should have her visit salary.com to get a better idea what she should be charging for her abilities.

Because, had you paid attention, you would see that HE is the one that said he wanted to come to me and fight. I gave him an opportunity and called his bluff. I even offered to pay for his trip.
