Now that everyone's been slapped back down to reality (yes the pimp hand is stong with this one) lets try & keep some semblance of peace. I'm the 1st to jack people around on here but Christ man if we're gonna get real nasty make it private

*looks around quickly-"do you see any mods around? Good."* (this is only for us, NOT FOR MODS)The Mods/Admins have been in here waaay too often here lately, for the love of everything that is good & holy under the Nissan God's eyes, take this sh*t to emails man. Lets see if we can keep the R50 section mod free for like a couple of mintues...

I took out the bottom part of my rear seats so that my cargo area is thaaat much bigger now. Since its only a 2 seater I don't plan on giving anyone but my wife & 2 dogs a ride when I go camping/wheeling... everyone else can find their own damned ride.

I rock no carpet (bedlined interior)
Ya I actually do that when I used to bring long pieces home, pop out the seat bottoms and the s*** folds right flat!! could make for a sweet bed

Do you have any pics of your interior? Kinda curious what it looks like

You got lucky, I started driving a '76 Cutass 4-door and a '79 Ford Courier (baby blue POS). No wonder I had no luck with the ladies in HS

The only pics I have are of the dismantled interior (note the Bubba Keg on the floor). I can't find my memory card for my camera & have no money to buy a new one but as soon as I get one I'll post up pics of the bedlined interior. Oh & yes my center console is crooked...

Yeah I've seen it, but its really slippery when wet (thats a nice little Bon Jovi refference) & extremely expensive (atleast for my broke as$) & the bedliner is cheap & easy. all I have to do now is pull out the seats (all of 8 bolts) spray, hose & wipe down. Like I said, easy.

If I ever get any extra money I'm gonna get some Corbeau Baja RS's (I'll have to make custom brackets but thats fine)

LoL



try to imagine a 6 ft tall Chinese guy walking around with this... that's me.

This is actually the 2nd/3rd keg I've bought for myself (I'm not counting others bought for family). 1st was left in SD. 2nd had the cap break when I forgot about it (just filled) on the roof of the PF during a turn. weight of filled keg plus speed and some air time equals busted cap. 3rd was broken by me, out of frustration. So I took the "body" of the 2nd and combined it with the lid and handle of the 3rd.

wow floor looks pretty good in that stuff, if they made it in like a gold/beige color it would go pretty good with the interior

They make this sh*t in different colors, but black is the easiest to take care of & the cheapest.

depends on what year you were 18.

When I was 18, I didn't have a car. At least not one I could consider mine, or even anything I drove consistently.

My brother taught me how to drive (blame him if my driving scares you) in his Pontiac 6000 STE. After I got my license ('94 at age 16) and for about a year, I drove a 1987 Ford Escort 2 door hatchback, which my other brother just recently bought (I have two brothers, both older). The radio was stolen very shortly after he bought it (or maybe he bought it without a radio, I forget), the heater barely worked and the driver's door lock was missing the part where to insert the key. That meant I had to open up the passenger side, reach over to unlock the driver side, THEN run back around to get in. It also meant I had to drive to school in relative silence and in bitter cold, seeing as I lived in Chicago. You ever try driving a stick, when you're numb from the cold? By the time the interior warmed up, I'd already be in class (as late as I usually was). Driving that car, gave my a lot of the experience and skill I use today.

The reason I only drove it a year, was because my brother sold it. The starter went bad. Actually, shortly before it was sold, the only way to start it, was to put the car in gear, and push it, of course this required two people. As one person pushes the car (usually me), the other sits inside with their foot on the clutch pedal while in 1st gear (usually my brother). Once you get a momentum going, you lift up on the clutch and hope the engine starts (just imagine the reverse of how power transfers from the engine to the road). If it doesn't start, try again! This happened over the summer, so I didn't deal with it when driving to school. Replacing the starter probably would've cost more than what he paid for the car itself. But, if they had asked me, I would've kept the car, shoot, I'd have offered to pay them back with my tiny allowance!

But you know what... I miss that car. I'd like to see a show of hand of how many of you guys have fit TEN people in YOUR PF/QX4s... granted, nine of us were Asians (10th was a little "white" chick), but it's still, in a 2 door hatchback!!!

After the hatchback, I ended up back on the good ol' mass transit, because there wasn't any "extra" car for me to drive. Senior year and no car...

edit: apparently it's actually counted as "3 door" hatchback.
