240sx being pimped on MTV's "pimp my ride"

[KDashy]

Looks like the car has done great things for you, good stuff.

Your car is definitely pimp!

[scruffy63]

...............not be so damn crazy like his life in endanger cuz the car is like that. Act responsibly, i would expect this kinda attitude from honda owners, but not nissan owners....[/QUOTE]

I think he meant get a gun to keep people away from his car not to protect his life.I myself don't like what they did to the car either, but everybody has their own opinions. just because most don't like it doesn't mean we are acting like honda owners.

[drifts14x]

I haven't seen any pictures of the car, can somebody post em

[Dookie]

He brokeas, did they fix your HUD?

[PantherRacer]

This is like "Conform or die beeyotch!" one guy steps out of line and does something unique and wonderful to his car and you all try to get him "back in line" I'm tired of this. that's why the other thread got locked.

You all are making Nissan owners looking like a bunch of narrow-minded donkeys.

free your mind. Do honda owners bash each other when they get silvia or Bimmer lights? when they don't have neons or a four foot wing? when their car actually has no rice and makes 590 horsepower and has an intercooler the size of my torso?

do eclipse owners barf at the sight of the marble eclipse with S15 lights??but.anyways I happy

Thanks .

And Dookie, it's a long story bout my HUD and electrical problems (most of which I think I mentioned in my other thread). However, I know how to fix my own HUD (I only look like a total dumb *** on tv, i'm only half dumbass in real life - ).

[AZhitman]

LOL - good post, QV.

[driftczar]

Well its awesome that u like the car, and if you like it keep it, there is nothign wrong in that. Its what you think that matters and all the poeple saying crap about it dont know what they are talkin about, 8 out of 10 or them would have got their ride pimped and owuld have kept the car because of the diference in the way it was from before, its awesome man and i would take your place if i could in getting my ride pimped. take care and have fun with your new 240sx.

[innesheavyindustries]

Comedy "OLOL ITZ TEH RICE!" option here.

Get working on that KA-T!

Also, apply for Hot Import Nights. Hell, you got pimped by WCC, you might as well. You've got definite bling potential with the X-Factor and the three Xboxes. Take that, 1st gen Integra S15 conversion!

Although, honestly, I'd repaint it along the way. 350z orange would look schweet.

But, tweechisown.

[yelnatsch517]

O... just in case some of you may have mistaken my position in this little piece here, I am UNBIASED. If you happened to have read only a couple of my posts they may have easily been mistaken to mean differently from what I intended. I give arguments for both sides and missing posts from one side may make me look judgmental.

Here is actually a summary of my position:

LOL. O man that was funny *** ish. I just watched it and man was it hilarious. His reactions were freakin ROFL. Dude I suggest any of you doubters to watch it. His before car was pure crap compared to the end product, trust me. The individual parts they installed on the car alone I guarantee retail for more than the over inflated prices 240's sell for nowadays. 6 monitors, that is easily $6,000 at least. I guarantee you his car could not be sold for that much before it got "pimped." I say, dang man you got some crazy luck. O yea, he got like 20 free xbox games. Even if you hate everything else about his car, you can't see no to free games.

Whooooooooooooo wheeee. That episode was funny. O yea, if you ever need some "friends" to come over to fill as one of those 12 slots hit me up. For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about... in the show, when they said he could have up to 12 friends play at the same time, he said "but I don't even have 12 friends." ROFL Man brokeass, that is hilarious.

from Pimp my Ride thread in General NicoThat was before I read his post here.

I totally support him and am man enough to I'm pretty envious. He got in on a major deal. The only part I disagree with about his car is the color. I myself and a dark person. I said that in one of my posts somewhere (can't remember where). I would much rather have my car look like this:But if you like the green, whooohooo to you for getting it in the color you wanted.

PS. Seriously if you have time, maybe we can organize a SoCal meet so all the NICO SUPPORTERS can come check out your car. I would love to see it in person as I'm sure pictures and vids just don't do it justice.

O yea, that is one hell of a Christmas present if you ask me. Its even got the holiday colors.

[onosqv]

Hahaha, yelnatsch. I guess if some of the other members really want to see my car (whether to bash it or not), I don't see the harm in attending one of the SoCal meets. I haven't been able to make the ones during summer because of school and work, but I'll be available sometime in January or after. Just hit me up on email. I'll also check out the meet sections later on in the month and maybe I'll make a special appearance.

Seriously, I'd think members here would be more interested in seeing all the turboed KA's, SR's, RB's, and CA's.

But anyway, thanks for everyone's comments, positive or not - it's all interesting to know where everyone stands.

And, innesheavyindustries, I think your car is the BLING KING! Love that sig. I'd hate to drive behind you, hahaha.

[PantherRacer]

Now that is interesting...not everyday u see a foil S14... you ARE the bling King....well as long as that foil lasted...how long would something like that last?

lol...another stupid thought : true aluminum foil Silvia, the ultimate light car, yet that wouldn't stay....unless you compress it on cardboard!!!!!! HA lol

[Digital 9INE]

Sup,

I know this has probably been beaten too death. I've sat through countless posts on countless forums reading the props, and the really idiotic bashings so to speak. IMO, take what any of the haters out there have to say with a grain of salt. They can claim everything in the world of ALL GO NO SHOW, yet im sure at one point, theyve had a pair of snake eyes, some neon, or any other item we now consider -rice-. FK 'em in my opinion.

1. You got your car pimped by MTV. You got to meet and chill with the WCC Crew, and you had a blast doing it.

2. While it may not be to your liking, how can you ever get over the basic word of -free-. Im sure its growing on you, as it probably would me.

3. Trust, had any of the participants in this thread badgering, hating, or just plaing talking $hit,... got their car done, theyd be flaunting it just like you with good reason.

Once again, and not to be considered one of the flamers of Nico... but Fk 'em.

Hell, i envy you for just being at the new shop. As much as the last guy said of "xzibit being a no talent punk", think before you speak dip$hit. You dont just get shows, sponsors, commercials, hosting jobs, and platinum CD's because youre a no talent jerkoff. Maybe he doesn't know **** about cars ? WCC does. They have reputable mechanics, and just because they dont fit into your ideal world of "Imports", doesnt mean the resta the world gives a ****. They have quite a few Mechanics on spot, not to mention they deal directly with more companies then your local oh holy mechanic. Maybe im letting this get out of context, its just really fkin sad, when one of our own gets something bad *** in his life put down for him... and some of you decide to tear it apart.

QV, broke240... keep on ridin' chief.. and definitely dont sell it.

[Neejay]

Hey QV, I just saw the re-run of PMR @ 9:30pm EST. Thats gotta win multiple awards at ANY car show. Hell, you cant beat "free"...especially when it comes down to modding cars.

Of course not everyone will like it...thats just life/human nature. Honestly, its not bad at all (at least not how I thought it was from looking at some pics someone else took, not your original post with the quality pics). Not that it matters, but the only things I didnt really like was the spoiler and hood...both of which can easily be replaced (if you saw fit to remove/replace them). That interior and sound/entertainment system is nice as hell. Nice car.

Have you driven it around much?

GO AUTOS!

[240SXer]

I'm just curious about that part where X says "I'm gonna drift"... Where did they come up with that?

I think the car looks fine. I've seen much worse. Maybe not the best colors (in my opinion) but at least it's all done nicely. I've seen much worse stuff... Give the guy a break. You guys sound jealous because he got pimped.

If I drove next to him and there were some chicks out, they'd be all up on him, even though I've got 400hp .

The car looks nice, and his paint and interior is probably nicer than any other S13 in here (I know it's better than my S13s).

[onosqv]

I'm just curious about that part where X says "I'm gonna drift"... Where did they come up with that?

Hehe, thanks for the nice comments. Anyway, as you probably well know, A LOT of things were cut from the final show - (5-6 days of filming just me, 1 month of WCC) - so a lot of the things said may be taken out of context (i.e. "I'm gonna drift" and "I don't have 12 friends").

Another MTV staff member (w/ a 2.2L JDM Engine WRX and I were explaining to X on the theory and execution of drifting during a break - there was also a whole interview on my car and how ppl like to drift it, the D1 event, and the upcoming JGTC event - all of which was cut out).

He may have actually drifted my car for fun and it just didn't make it to the final cut - the mtv producers were telling me what I'm "not suppose" to talk about because of marketability, legality, etc.

In other words, he was just having fun w/ my "bucket," hahahaha.

P.S. And very well said Digital 9INE. . Thanks.

[Thrwnsprkz]

Again I missed the episode twice and caught the last 10 min after my buddy told me it was on. but Ill watch the whole thing eventually.You deffinatly need to get that car out to meets and stuff. I know the odds of me gettin out to CA netme are slim to none, but I know Id wanna see it. I also heard your getting sponsors for your car allready? Fusion Tire? neothers? b/c thats an awsome bonus, Congrats QV

[Neejay]

"5-6 days of filming just me, 1 month of WCC" I never knew that. Thats pretty cool that it only took 1 month for them to get your car to that level.

[accel junky]

Saw the pics. Not my style, but I think its great that you like it, especially since it was free and you got some TV fame!

[hannibal]

Me and 2bn_s13 saw the rerun last night.Dude, congrats on your new pimped ride. I'm sure you woulda preferred a SR to 3 Xboxes, but it was free and that's some NICE gear. But why 6 TVs in the trunk? How often do you have a bunch of friends hanging out in your parking space?Honestly, I think it looked better before even with the raggedy body kit. But you got to meet Xzibit and the WCC guys, plus be on MTV and get $1000s worth of free parts. How can you lose???

[DaPCWiz]

Me and 2bn_s13 saw the rerun last night.How often do you have a bunch of friends hanging out in your parking space?

that happens at car meets around here like every other week.

[PantherRacer]

yinno...I never stopped to think about what X does with the cars when he takes them to WCC....He could be out there burning the tires into oblivion and we'd never know!

[usdm_180sx]

They've finished taping.

My car still has... "electrical problems" with the billion lbs of electronics and other anti-hp goodness.

No offense, but for $20k I would have got a decent paint job, done a ka-t or sr swap, lsd, wheels and coilovers. As far as style goes, you are the only person I know who speaks decent English yet still manages to floss like a straight FOB and ricer. Well, if you enjoy your car more power to you...

Yes, for $20k I would have done a lot of things different too (half of which would not have gone into paying back some of my student loans).

I hope I speak decent English, considering I was born and raised in Southern California and was one of the best English students in my High School (college is a diff story :P).

Yea, I look like a FOB on TV - you try saying every line 10 times, 8 hours a day, on an empty stomach, not knowing how to act, and being all excited that you just go $20K for free.

[jEzTeR]

I finally got to see the show last night.

Pretty cool if you ask me!

The 240 looks just like the one from the game they were going off of.

[HashiriyaS14]

BrokeAs: How'd the paint job come out? I know we all saw it on TV, but while WCC may not be known for performance mods, I bet they do a helluva paint job. Did they get all into the doorjams, behind fuel door, all that jazz?

Congrats on the car man

[evotech240sx]

does n-e body know where to get the pics of this car??? everybody i know has been asking me about this and i dont get cable (too cheap to get it) =P

[Kr0n1k]

Just saw the new pimp my ride a few days ago, you should call WCC back and get that tooshay guy's friend to put some flames on! That guy did a sick job on the 4runner. And get'em in orange. Then the wing and rims would match the flames... oh, and RB26DETT after you win some prize money.

[Altiman94]

my personal fav is the bmw'd escort. I thought it was pretty cool lookin

[Florida240sx]

The show just came on. It's on commercial break at this moment. For those who have missed it in the past.
