Who's got the most UNBEARABLE street car??

[crzycav86]

I thought this would make for an interesting thread...

Lets hear it guys: Whether you have a back-breaking stiff-*** suspension, gutted interior with no music, or whether you sweat like a pig in the summer days with no AC, I want to know what kind of **** you have to go through when you drive your car. Also, let us know if you think it's worth removing all your pleasant accomodations for the sake of performance!

[whiterps13]

i think riding around with no carpet and no radio is retarded. you cant honestly tell me you noticed a differance with the removal of >25 pounds. if weight is so important, go on a diet or cut off your arms. hey, who really needs arms anway?

[D1SR240]

how you gonna shift and steer with no arms? lol

~swave

[thes14project]

teeth man all teeth. doesn't chris reeves do something like that?

[thes14project]

Although I did see on Maury one time a chick who drove around who had been cut in half. Pretty sweet. Besides legs weigh more than arms anyways.

[Silent Drifter]

i had it all i had in my car was the driver seat. Literally, no dash no gauges no nothing not a damn thing but bare metal. An i loved every minute of it.

[ride4lame]

-no AC-no heat-no rear seat/carpet-loud exhaust-no radio antenna

the list goes on...just give me the trophy

[MainEvent212]

no heat? what happened?

heh, i got the ultimate road noise machine...i really need to stick the rear seats back in and figure out who can give me some door panelsl ol

[Toahk]

I have a base model Dark Gray 89 fb with s14 black leather seats and no ac, and the weather in norcal gets above 100+ a lot in summer, not too comfortable.

[Cyberkreig]

Hatchback, Tien HE's with no rubber junk installed between the coils and the mounts so they make tons of noise, apexi N1duals, no rear seats, no plastic or carpet of any kind behind the rear strut towers. Ac compressor was making noise so i stole the belt to use on my ps pump

[PhaneSoul]

i cant drive mine right now, i think thats the most unbearable... I WIN!

[driftaholic]

i have have 3 working cylinders so i have vibrations and 75% of my power. doesn't get more unbearable than that

[Onizuka]

i cant drive mine right now, i think thats the most unbearable... I WIN!

If you think thats unbearable:I havent driven my car since may 10th last year, and it just sites in the garage looking uber sexy with an awsome motor in it, and im stuck at school 180 miles away from it, I WIN

[AZhitman]

Hmmmm....

Sometimes my 10-disc Bose audio system skips, or the heated leather seats don't quite heat up fast enough. My power tilt/telescoping steering wheel moves a little slower than I'd like, and eight-way power seats are SO 1990's - I need 10-way adjustments! The damn cashmere headliner shows dust, and every once in a while, I can hear the faintest hint of road noise. Have to keep adjusting the A/C setting higher so my fingers don't freeze, and the humongous sunroof lets in WAY too much sunshine...

Just hand over the trophy - Anything for enduring this horrible suffering.

[Mr1der]

Au contraire!! I do believe I have you beat seeing as my car has been down almost as long as yours, but I have NEVER driven it, or any other 240! My first driving experience with a 240 will be a boosted experience I also have no radio and no backseat, and I'm about to loose all my rear carpeting. The radio's place was taken over by gauges.

[RagingPanda]

NO A/Cno powersteering...I hate the parkin lot so much...especially with Kaaz 2way kicking in..clunk clunk clunk clunk...no other car out there can massage the driver/passenger like mine....btw...isn't it true that you can't just start stripping thing out? It will ruin 50/50 weight distribution. :thinker

[PROJECTRB240SX]

WHY CAN'T YOU? MY CAR IS STRIPPED OUT AND WE TOOK OUT ALMOST 200LBS (WE STOPPED WEIGHING AT LIKE 175).... THERE IS STILL MORE THAT NEEDS TO COME OUT ONCE I GET MY CAGE IN THERE (I.E. SEAT BELT TRACKS, MOTORS, SEATBELT TIMER, POWER TO MANUAL DOOR SWAP, ETC.)

[crzycav86]

Wow... that's pretty hardcore. and this is in a street machine..?

I like my fully loaded car. The only time it was annoying to drive was when I was carrying a vlsd, and it flipped over when I took a turn, and some of the oil oozed out of that air release pipe(whatever it's called). It made the car smell like 10 year old motor oil.. But it bothered my passengers more than it did me.

And after my brake pads went out, I resorted to downshifting when I wanted to brake so I didn't hear that annoying screech.

..and the power steering leak is no good either..

...but I must say the most difficult thing I've had to endure with my car was listening to music with the stock(staticy) speakers. It was hell!

[PROJECTRB240SX]

YES THIS CAR IS A STREET DRIVEN SOON-TO-BE TRACK MONSTER. YEAH, I DOWNSHIFT ALL THE TIME ANYWAY ITS JUST NOW THE REAR BRAKES ARE DEMOLISHED AND LOCKED UP.

OHH AND MY FRIENDS HEAD HIT THE INTERIOR DOME LIGHT WHEN I FLOORED IT AND DESTROYED IT.

[marshun]

dang. mine is full stripped on the interior. im gonna go get some insulation for the heat that comes from the floor. i hate that. but ill have that, the carpet, two front seats. and thats it. hks hipermax II's turned all the way up. no lsd yet . and umm........ yeah. das it.

[bcar240]

Oh, I would have to say the smell of the oil that leaked over the entire bay burning off. Everytime I try to enjoy a warm day with the windows open I have to resist the urge to vomit as the stench fills the car (but I get used to it after a while.) Also, the crank-powered driver's window, has a tendency to jam and get stuck half way down. Kind of a problem when you are at a drive through window.

[marshun]

damn man. some of you guys seriously need to get to work on your cars. lol.

[PhaneSoul]

lol, yea
