Why would you say that? I HATE silvia fronts. I love a slammed piggy with pop-ups and a stock lip

Pop-ups are a nice idea in theory, but they fail in practice.

I see the number 42 all the time. Ever since I read "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". And you can't really add when you see it on the clock of your computer, you are staring at the time any time you are on your computer, usually you just never notice it. Like the other guy said, when your subconscious sees it, it brings it up to your conscious mind.

You know when you go outside with an umbrella and it doesn't rain?
Then you don't take an umbrella, and it does rain?
What's up with that?

They get stuck up, they get stuck down, the relays fail, the motors fail, they're a pain to adjust, the idiot previous owner clipped the brown wire and screwed it up because he was a moron, shall I go on?

My silvia lamps just bolted on and worked. A 10mm socket was all i needed to adjust them. Wham, bam, done.

And after installing Cibies, they light up the road really well.

It's probably because you're such a huge fanboy for 240s and the number means so much to you that you notice it.

He is right. I also see those numbers all the time, and it's because I am a huge Nissan fanboy. I ADMIT IT!

SAW. SAW a number. SAW. Past participle needs infinitive. You HAVE SEEN or you SAW. You didn't SEEN s***. You SAW it. You SAW the number 240 pop up. SAW.

Of ALL the gramatical faux-pas in the world, "I seen" makes my skin crawl the most.

Yea your car must have sucked, I've never had an issue with mine, and they're pretty easy to adjust. :gapteeth:

You know whats weird? Around the same time every day since I was born, like literally every day, if I look at the clock, it says 2:40. What does it all mean????

I owned several S13s, so It can't be just coincidence. Many others have similar issues as well. Oh well, I guess you'll find out when you find out, no big deal.

But nothing says "extra, unneeded sh*t that will break on you" like motors on your lights.

I guess it depends on the P.O., I've had mine since I was 17 and when I got it, it was practically untouched :gapteeth: Although, they did stop coming up after an f150 smashed into them, but that was fixed.
