i might get flamed, because idk, but why do they say "200sx" when its clearly and 240sx?

To the OP, like the car man its pretty clean, definately invest in the BOV, i understand that any surge is bad.

s13's + s14's were called 200sx's in Europe.

where did you get the mounting pod on the steering column for the gauge? or did you just bolted it down.

And Australia, because they came with the SR20, not the KA24.That wonderful truck engine dropped into a sports car was reserved for the US only....

Actually THIS is the baddeest CA18 in the world....outside of Japan...

Including Japan, I THINK Garage Paddy has it. I can't find the vid, but it was a CA with a T66 on it IIRC...

If it had been dry and i could get traction i would have taken it somewhere that would have permitted higher rates of speed

Edit* I actually raced that guy with the sti once on the interstate up to about 6500rpm in 5th gear. (not sure how fast that is seeing as my speedo only reads 110mph) He had me by no more than a fender the whole time. I was suprised my little CA could keep up.
I dont see how it would "piss off" that sti owner...

In what way is a 240 in any way superior to an STI? It has more grip stock than you could ever hope to make even with 2 $ dollars in suspension mods. plus i bet it puts down more power.

...id also work on actually getting your 180's right ..lol..yeah...your stock CA18 240sx pissing off an STI owner....id be real pissed alright, More pissed at the fact someone is being an idiot with a decent car in my neighborhood trying to impress me with failed 180's and compressor surge.

Its no diff than the hondas that try to "piss us off" with their incessent revving and e-brake pullings
