If I were to try to pull something like this off I would have used

-Msport wide Fenders

-Wide rear Fenders things

-wide low offset wheels

-used diffrent side skirts and rear bumper

that would even it out much more

Apparently, Nite likes the "skateboard" look.

I think it looks great. I like the paint, LOVE the interior (except for those dorky gauges) and the wheels are functional (and the right size).

I'd prefer more rubber on the ground, but it ain't my ride.

5 guages on a N/A car with a pretty much stock motor, and the exaust is Meineki style (down and inwords, instead of strait or up and out like it should be)

I like the way it looks from the front.. and that's about all I like about it.

THe guages are dumb.. S/He spent a lot of money on the front end and I guess didnt' have money left over ot do the rest of the car nicely...what a shame.. it has potential to be great.

look at my sig, does it look like I care about the way a car looks?

bone crushing performance should ALWAYS come before eye bleeding looks...

otherwise you are just a poser, ricer, fagtard, etc...

No excuses, take yer bichin elsewhere

(btw, this is not directed to anyone, it is just my opinion)

lol, I wouldn't describe it as wonderful. It has dents in it that you could house a family of rabid squirrels in and the paint looks like it was soaked in yellow gatorade for all of it's 13 years...

not to mention the bumper color is slightly off on my car... :)

But thanks for the compliment :D

Isnt that a 240 posing as a R33? To my knowledge thats called RICE. the body work isnt too bad though. And I dont like the fart can he has. There are better exhausts than that type out there.

I don't really see a problem with the R33 front end being on his 240. I would've chose different side skirts and rear bumper to mold in. Body kits are ok if they are clean and match the body lines, Not the big Shogun,Blitz open mouths,fangs snow shovel look,etc. The wheels are nice,the graphics are gay. Also how can you guys determine if he has any work done to the motor or not by that photo? The Exh. to me only looks inward because of the angle on the rear bumper. Just be glad that R33 front end is actually on a Nissan and there is no big aluminum wing. How about the Skylines from Top Secret or any other aftermarket companies with Skylines that look ricey but have more than enough back it up? Its always stupid kids on the street "ricers" that mock these cars in the most ugly disrespecting way and can't back it up.

Just My 50 cents

Top Secret cars are not ricey at all. They do decent work on their exterior. But they dont put put badges from other cars onto different vehicles. That was the only thing that really gave me probs with that 240. BTW, you wouldnt happen to be the guy who sold me the turbo Z would you?

All i see in the engine bay is a painter valve cover, blue hose covers, a injen intake, and Injen stickers on the strut towers.

That exaust is rice, i have never seen a prefabicated exaust that points inward and its just a stock bumper with the body kit on the sides.

Im not certain about other engine mods, i was just putting one and one together, Lots of nice body work, but lots of rice and lack of performance

at least thats how i look at it :D

Yeah just the typical bolt ons for a 240SX. Really what other mods for a 240 would you be able to see besides a turbo kit and nitrous by just looking in the engine bay? Even though I don't agree on the exhaust style, but what other type of exh systems are there really for any import other then being a chrome coffee canister sticking out the back unless you go sleeper setup and get a aluminum finished muffler. Yes you might say an Apexi N1 style but wouldn't that also be just a more stylish "fart can" exhaust?? :coffee:

the owner of the car made a nice effort on his car and I like it.

It's a shame, some people just have to go out of their way to bad mouth other people's hard work.
