Isn't it ironic?

While many of us are here spending cash converting our US spec 240's to Silvias or Sileighties, our counterparts oversees are spending money in hopes of having a Onevia.(Our coupe) There should really be some kind of parts foreign exchange program or something.

Hmm... hahaha.... Thats a good idea. Maybe a site, where you pay $10 to post an ad on for a striaght up trade with someone in JAPAN or something.. haha..

Their coupe has stationary headlights. Ours has 180SX style popups.

I actually prefer the pop up style front end on the coupes more than the fixed headlights of the silvia, I'm glad we have them (not glad we got the KA though) but thats just my opinion :pface

i think the pop-ups look tight when they are down...but when they are up (at night) they are kind of gay. But who can see them at night really anyways?? im a big fan of the S13 actually

Post by **Blackstar** » Sun Sep 07, 2003 6:35 am

yea, I love everything about the S13s. If I were to get an s14, I would only get the 97-98 because of the angry eyes

haha, the grass is always greener on the other side of the pond. I can just see a bunch of Japanese kids over there bragging to each other about their USDM parts lol.

LOL. I guess thats the reason that Yashio factory did the pink S13.

I read somewhere about the japanese kids taking the usdm frontier front clip and putting it on their tucks. This was a couple years ago though.

Ok no offense, and I don't mean to single you out...

All of you seriously think they are importing USDM front ends to Japan to put on their coupes? That is the lamest thing I have ever heard. How dumb are all of you?

For example...

Take a guy with a 180sx in Japan and he wants to make a sileighty,Take another guy with a silvia and he wants to make a onevia.

What do they do kids? Just swap front ends IN JAPAN. What? Huh? Where do you get 180 front ends in Japan? Oh, it couldn't be the same junkyards our SR's come from could it? AH HELLZ NAWZ D00D TEHY IMPROT IT ALL FORM TEH UINTED STAETS!!~

the japanese want our KA to turbo like we want their SR.

^ Stupid street strikes again!

Post by **deftdrummer** » Sun Sep 07, 2003 6:35 am

cause the 2.4 has more potential than the sr20 does in the long run (if done right of course) and i would assume these jap kids are doing it the right way.

Deftdrummer, I saw the pic of your S14, Tight.What size are your rims?:poke

Swift_drift: Putting down misinformation in style.

Umm...and I doubt they would want our KA when the SR and RB has already been established so well over there...:rolleyes

Oh oh and the CA...did I mention the CA

Say it with me now. J-O-K-E. Also known as situational irony? Or maybe we're not the dumb ones.:rolleyes

Post by **drifter_for_life06** » Sun Sep 07, 2003 6:35 am

I never looked at it that way, there should be a parts program to swap parts with someone, maybe even like a pen-pal type thing, you trade with a certain person to get parts you/they need from ours/their country. : /
