Post by **SHIFT_Lock** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

rb20s13

Post by **Nameless EJ6** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

Well if I had one............. . . .

Maybe I would call it "Allmightypowerfull240sxRB25DETkillerWatchOut"

No actually probably something like RB250SX...

250sx..

Post by **93RPS13** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

while i going to call mine Sky80

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

Yeah 250SX.

Post by **spec-v5150** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

a 240:D

I dont get into the whole naming thing. i have a personal name for her, but she is still a 240. Not a (eventual) 240 meets skyline mix or anything

That doesn't seem to make much sense considering the 180sx name was based off the CA18DET engine.

Post by **Joe** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

its still a 240sx.

you dont call a honda with a type r engine a type r.

Post by **chachi longshot** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

A lot of people do though

Post by **Siddhartha** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

Unfortunately, most of the rich ricers think the type r was all about the engine, therefore, if they have the engine they drive a 'type r'. Type r hondas are more about the fact that they can drive circles around most other cars in their classes....

Yes, and we all laugh at them

Post by **Siddhartha** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

indeed, we do, silly ricers, type rs are for drivers . . .

Post by **93semax** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

s14 with 2.5 liter engine =250(sx)Makes sense too me.

300zx, 3ltrsq45, 4.5ltrs350z, 3.5 ltrs

It goes with the NA nissan naming tradition. (of course nissan has a few odd balls)

Post by **Nameless EJ6** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

Actually I think 2500SX would be better..

Post by **toki** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

i think i would call mine "stfu" because no matter what anyone said about it, i would know i had a 500whp car that i built, so i could just say STFU when they ask me what kind of car I drive, to avoid any further questions like "OMG DO YOU DRIFTO IN YOUR SIL240 NOS?!"

Post by **Big Manne** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

if i ever get a rb25det motor in my 240 i am going to get a tag that says "RB25DET" just to let them know and if they dont know and ask what my tag means i am going to say i dont know3 they just gave me that tag for my car

Post by **[Zero-S]** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

riiiight. Nameless, thats the pulsars route of naming...ewww SX2500.

and they are on the same level as the riceboys with body kits and altezzas saying they have a type r.

just because you have the engine, dosent mean its now on the same level.

i have driven integras with R motors, and ITR's. completley diffrent cars.

Post by **Nathan** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

I call mine bitc&, the car is a pain the ***. Getting this engine is a pain in the ***, pretty much...this thing is turning into one giant pain the ***.

Post by **gibbo80** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

if i got one i would keep it a 240 for sleeper purposes. But if i was to name it, it would be 250rb

Post by **hashiriya13** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

I had been thinking the 250sx for some time and it appears some of you thuoght that way also. Oh about the plates I was supposed to get RB PWR and ended up with RV PWR still have not put them on I have untill the 17th. (go ahead laugh)

Post by **op.tic** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am

I had been watching this board for awhile now, since I got my rb25 into my s13 now, I decided to jump in with you guys.Well...about namimg 240 with the rb, I would call it 250-SKYRIDER.

Post by **93RPS13** » Thu Jul 10, 2003 7:36 am
