Yes I do, they'll be posted after the show airs (I'll probably do it Sunday night if I'm feeling frisky, and Monday otherwise). I'm not allowed to post pictures until after the show has already aired. I'm probably not even suppose to tell you about certain things in the show (like how I reacted, how everything works, bla bla, but whatever).

So patience people. Whether you want to flame the car, think it's great or the worst thing in the world, or to congratulate me for getting on TV w/o robbing a bank or something, you'll see pictures soon enough.

Have a good week guys and girls

I wanna know if X disses your car man lolol

They're pimping a 240! lol it has ta be good man, I really don't have much to say on this man!

yeah that VW bus was pimp. they replayed it too much though lol. can't wait to see the outcome! It'll be the invasion of the Ricers!

it's not the civic owners you have to worry about, it's the lil kids who don't have cars yet (and don't know how to drive at all) who believe they can drift like tak who go otu and wreck a bunch of 240's.

but the 240 is like at the lower end of the spectrum anyway (not a diss) I mean it's Silvia-> 200SX -> 240SX

If you decide to sell any of the parts contact me. Got a couple of rich friends who might buy them. Actually, my older bro has a couple of rich friends who might buy them. Same thing though.

So do they "pimp" your ride how you want it? If so, I'd GLADLY donate my car as long as they follow my general blueprint.

I don't even think I would let them follow any blueprint. Just buy me parts and I will install myself. I would be happier if I got free parts than finding out somebody else installed them on my car. On the other hand if its free go right ahead.

Hey that part is actually somewhat public knowledge. I was reading some male interest magazine and they said how people get selected for the show and crap.

yah u find me a REAL RHD #x of 400 sileighty for under 300 bux and ill personally lick yer shoes....ive NEVER seen a real sileighty go for anything under 30 grand EVER (im not talking slaped a silvia face on a 180...im talkin straight from the factory REAL DEAL sileighty...only 400 of em made)

ne ways...i think u guys should chill on this guys car...big deal if they rice it out...if he likes it...thats what matters....who cares if you dont agree with 4000 lbs of stereo and lights in the car...its HIS car...and honestly...i dont see S chassis blowin up in this country like hondas ne time soon...sure theyve gotten a bit more popular...but its gonna take YEARS for shops and US aftermarket companies to make up for the time they spent on those boring little drag hondas...its not like were gonna see TONS and TONS of USDM S chassis parts just poppin up over night...however it would be REALLY nice to see these "cheepy rims" companies copying some nice deep dish JDM wheels and sellin em for 300-500 bux for all 4 wheels...especially in 4 lug (in japan you find 4 lug deeps all day long for that much...usually in 15 to 16 inch too...and in AWESOME shape....check out yahoo auctions japan)

but ne ways yah...the whole point of my post is that...WHO GIVES A RATS *** IF HIS CAR IS RICED OUT WITH 9 GAJILLION LBS OF SPEAKERS...CHROME...AND GENERAL RICE APPERAL....ITS HIS CAR...LET HIM ENJOY IT

if you guys wanna set an example so bad of how a "real car" looks...go out...bust yer hump...spend TONS of money like i have on my car....bust yer *** gettin good at some form of racing...get sponsored...then get in magazines...maybe an option video if yer good enough when theyre here....but dont whine about how S chassis "should look" or what is "rice" on them...its all in personal taste and maybe hell like his car after WCC gets done with it

(im not trying to enduce arguements thru my post...just simply stating my opinion)

that was rather rambling and incoherant. You typed a lot and yet said very little. And what you did seemed mostly misinformed at or at least misguided.

that thing has beeeen gone...I was gonna pimp my bicycle but I can't get the damned broken pedals off! fixin cars is easier then that thing.

Please Mtv...PIMP MY BICYCLE!those guys'd prolly turn that moutain bike into a lowrider and give it a 250cc motorcycle engine and hydraulics just for kicks.....that'd be off da chain

Nice!Did you mention NICO on MTV?

I saw the commercial and it looked like they were going to make it like a 240sx off of NFS.

It's pretty cool IMO that you got your ride pimped. While what they do for the most part I wouldn't do to my car, it's an improvement to what they start with.

Good Luck with your new Pimped 240 and be sure an post lots of pics in this thread after the show is on!

brokeAs240sx,

Just heard about your fortunate turn of luck. Good deal. I am always glad to hear when a Nico member gets a turn of luck that isnt bad.

Should have talked them into an RB swap. Talk about pimp!

Anyway, congrats!!
