You guy seem to forget that the stock 240 gets its assed wiped without some kind of turbo, or turbo swap. I swear its so pathetic. And what's with all this "Honda's are ricers..." Have you taken a look at the cars out there?? There are just as many riced out nissans as there are hondas... I think its pretty ignorant to assume that because some honda drivers are ricers, that all honda drivers are ricers. When I had my SI, my only mods were Apex'i N1, AEM CAI, DC Headers, JDM Type R lights and a CF Hood. Essentially the same mods that more than half the nissan camp do to there cars... To be honest I would sell my 240 in a heartbeat, if I couldn't swap in my RB. You guys need to think before you speak

:oface YAWN! This has all been stated before. The bottom line is everyone with a stock/near stock 240 knows they stink for power...but thanks for the heads up:rolleyes . And just so you know, there are not as many riced out Nissans as Hondas. Nissans production numbers are far lower. Plus on any given day I see a much larger ratio of Hondas to Nissans (whether its riced, JDM'd, modified, or stock). Where did you get that statement from?

As for your mods...who cares. JDM stinks whether its Honda, Nissan, Toyota, whatever...It's another fad. Engines are a different story, but Type R headlights? Who cares? I'd bash a 240 just as quickly as a Civic, or give props.

And to be honest...I want you to sell your 240. You are obviously the one who needs to think before they speak.

On top of everything else, the only person who you could say was "mocking" the SIs was I30T, and his car can beat a stock one fairly easily, so he can say what he wants.

Repo says he beats and SI, and you say he's bashing...so what now no kill stories that involve Hondas, cause ex-SI owners get their feelings hurt?:rant

Like I said before, I may have jumped the gun here, but its only because I have a lot of respect for this forum compared to a lot of other forums... The last thing I want is for this place to turn into another bi*tch fest like other places... No doubt the guy in the SI, was an idiot if he thought he could take the V8, but that shouldn't make the car he drives any less respected...

Oh and nate I don't know where your from but I see just as many APCed out nissans with 20" chrome hubcaps, as a I do hondas. So maybe it all depends on where you live

Man you should search and just look at some of the flame threads we have. Some are very funny. We are in no way a perfect society, but then again who is.

I dont live in that INSANE place known as Cali, here in Texas we are normal, we have gunracks darnit! I swear I'm putting one in the 240...

Seriously though, I have seen maybe 5 riced out 240's EVER in Dallas the vast majority are totally stock.
