Nissan and Honda owners.

How many of you 240sx owners also have a Honda/Acura? If not what other cars do you guys have?

Post by **Doomed2Walk** » Mon Aug 23, 2004 8:54 pm

I have my 95 240sx and when needed my mommy's 02 maxima (hauls arse, would make a very NICE daily driver) and if I have to my dad's 00 durango (not fun, not comfortable, but can be useful).

IMHO I wouldn't mind having a honda/acura if it was the dc2 or eg6 because they are cheap to buy and buy parts for (relatively) because of the huge amounts of aftermarket support and the crazy interchangability. Later on I would like to get an ef or eg to turn into a track car.

i had an '89 Prelude SI, not that fun of a car, but a great daily driver, and VERY good on gas...had to sell it for 240 money so i could get something fun to drive

hmm..I drive my mom's 3.5 RL from time to time, usually when I'm injured and can't drive stick too well (lots of tennis and soccer.....tends to break things

) its got good acceleration but the suspension is very very squishy. I also drive our Pilot when I'm playing chauffer for the day.

i've driven a B18C1 powered EG with Hondata ECU, CAI and exhaust, and let me say they pull! not to mention the fuel milage. it's a nice low 14 second car as is, but some of you guys are probably wanting to push the 13's if not 12's.

Hondas are fun cars, and they have potential when turbo'd too, it just would cost alot out of the box compared to an upgraded turbo on a CA powered Silvia.

I have 95 civic DX with....some basic bolt ons which I sold to pay for stuff for the 240. My sister drives my civic now, unless I need it when i'm working on my 240. I'm kinda hopin she totals it, because the agreement between me and my mom is that i buy a thousand dollar car that I still own for her to drive (s13 anyone?) and then get the rest (roughly 2.5k = sr20det) so in the end i'm ahead :p

Hondas are fun. I've currently got a 97 Prelude SH that I mildly built the motor on. I can't wait to open it up. I've owned quite a few Hondas and the reliability and fuel economy is awesome. There is just something I love about rwd though.

My biggest thing is that I would have to spend so much money to get the Prelude ready for boost. In the end, the Prelude will go, and the Nissan will stay.

I have a 2000 civic ex. Not a bad car but by no means even remotely quick. Great on gas though. I'm probably gonna sell it here in about a month or so to help pay for my new pathfinder(nice luxury ride for an SUV even though my wife gets to drive it all the time).

wouldnt mind owning a 240 myself

neither a EP3 a DC5 or a S2K

Post by **BuudWeizErr** » Mon Aug 23, 2004 8:54 pm

i used to have a honda accord.

hated that car every second.it didn't get that great gas milage, and it always had problems, and still does to this day. my sister is driving it now. at 150k the engine threw the #1 rod out through both sides of the block. pile of crap. and i didn't treat it any differently than I do my 240, and my 240 has been running strong for approaching 2 years.

i have a 96 civic hatch with an h22 in it. some bolt ons here and there. it has 370cc injectors cause the stock ones crapped out. so why not get the biggest inejectors the ecu can handle? hehe.

but it looks pretty stock from the outside. i just like to pull on some people who get dumb on the freeway.

Got an 87 Integra to thrash around in the snow with because you can't drive an Azenis tired s14 in Colorado in the winter, and I am too cheap to buy snow tires.

Post by **eram** » Mon Aug 23, 2004 8:54 pm

Just sold my 2001 Prelude SH

I loved that car...*highly* recommended.

Post by **evotech240sx** » Mon Aug 23, 2004 8:54 pm

1997 honda civic hatchback gonna try to make a good touge car out of it

Post by **sirwarrior** » Mon Aug 23, 2004 8:54 pm

I got a 94 Civic hatch. I am the original owner of it, too.got a few mods. the basics.It ran great for 10yrs, but its jealous of the 240 that i got recently. As soon as I pulled out the blown KA out, I go and hydrolock the motor in the EG6

I had to choose between replacing motor in EG6 and S13. As it stands now, i got a nice 00DX motor, and the S13 is sitting engineless waiting for the SR20 that should be here ........soon enough, i hope.As much as I tuned the suspension on the EG6, I can't drive it to the max, because there just isn't enough power.

My last 3 cars were hondas.
