why do new 240 kids always

[deftdrummer]

Deftdrummer, STFU, let people do what they want to do. WHo cares what other people are doing. As long as it doesn't effect you. Don't get me wrong, I would hate to see a 240 end up like the civic in "Blown" civic thread.

vengence, i was only referring to people that get their 240 and the next day say "im gonna get the S15 front end conversion!" because they saw it in super street or something. That's entirely different than just mentioning the idea and going with it whenever you got the money. My problem is the people that claim to do it without having justifiable means/funds to back it up. Im not just talking about the internet either....ive met at least 3 people in real life that have these "plans" More power to the one who does though...

rest your sphinctor vengence

[Onizuka]

did you just call yourself his arsehole? :pface

[Phax]

yeah i'll race you Buud. if i win, you will never show your face in long beach. if you win, i will never show my face in apple valley (ha! like i would anyways) sucker!

If it goes down in Long Beach, HIT ME UP!!!!

Ever gone driving down around the port? Like off of Anaheim / 6th, around there? There are some pretty nice, wide open spaces that just scream drift. I went through a set of pads and a good couple thousand miles worth of tire rubber this weekend by just driving around there.

Ain't no straight line racing going down between Brian and me. I've got NAWWWWWWZZZZZ. And I took the respect.

[klorocks]

i would much rather the s14 kouki front end thatn the s15 in my opinion, SOOOOOOOOOOO SEXY

[TurDz]

Asking if you are a ricer makes you a ricer.

droptopsilvia, I would highly suggest going with a different setup. From my experience the WS's are horrible. There really isn't anything good about them. Plus APEXi's customer service sucks (from my experience). Also my screen name sucks.

Why aren't the WS coilovers very good? It seems like a great deal to me and seems better than just getting AGX & lowering springs.

I'm very curious since $850 is a nice price.

[S14 Wannabe]

Why do new 240 kids always spell Silvia... Sylvia also? I don't understand that either. And the first thing they want to do is change all the emblems, and ask if there are altezza's for the 240. O.K. maybe... not but I hope these new kids on the block are kept in check.

[droptopsilvia]

It was a joke, the ricer thing anyways. if you want to get technical as far as im concerned if you drive a rice-burner, you're a ricer.....if you decorate your car with stupid things like stickers and a giant wing, you just have bad taste......and if you put euro tailights on a car not from europe,you're just retarded!

[Cyberkreig]

I traded my integra GS-R for a beat up s-13 am I a ricer?actually i couldnt afford the 500$$ a month insurance so I needed a new platform and i wanted a RWD one

You have a thread about drunk driving with two people standing out of your open convertable.

[droptopsilvia]

yup, thats pretty retarded as well, but It was a good time and a good laugh, I figured a few would get a kick out of it as well.

but, you failed to mention the part about the fence! so I get a little nuts behind the wheel sometimes I'm just getting it out of my system before i get my s-15 front end and rb26dett in my car cause thats the cool thing to do.... j/k Im just gonna put a bunch of stickers on my car and call it a racecar!!!!

[APEXi240]

Actually, that is not a funny story at all. It scares me when people drive drunk. I used to, but it is definitly not worth it...from first hand experience and loss. You're story frightened and angered me. Not only did you put your life in danger, but also your friend's and other people's on the road...PLUS YOU WERE DRIFTING! (or attempting to). It's just a shame the cop didn't catch you.

WS's sucked for me because the dampers are not adjustable, and if you are gonna spend even 850, spend the extra for adjustability. The shocks in them stink, and you can't order replacement parts seperatly (such as just a shock, just a spring). The rear shocks blew out in 6 months, no drag strip, no track time, they just blew. The spring rates are too soft for a coilover. Finally Apexi's customer service is horrible.

This is all however, my sole experience with the product.

Please don't drink and drive anymore.

[240SXedUp]

I didnt read the thread at all but I know that I tell my friends im going to get an SR20 or go KA-T (most likely KA-T). I have nowhere near the money or knowledge to do either but I AM going to. Its not like im gonna go down to Autozone with $100 and ask for them to do it. I know its thousands of dollars and its gonna be a long process. I have a 2 1/2 year plan worked out to get all the stuff i want to be content done. I tell my friends and they tell me stuff like that to keep each other accountable and on track. So none of us see some engine dress up kits on sale for $20 and buy it.

[240SXedUp]

Oh BTW im 17

[WingsNThangs]

say "yeah im gonna get the S15 front end in like a month and then an SR20" as if it's that easy?? It takes at least $1000 in parts unpainted for the front end alone. Get a clue kids

Getting a driver's license is exciting enough, so getting your own car is that much more exciting. Project cars, the sport of drifting, speed, distinction is the car world...who wouldnt get excited. This kind of excitement is only compounded with observing reading about it in today's media--movies, magazines, events, forums. With that said, young people have imagination, which god forbid, is impractical, immature and unrealistic. And talking about it just feeds the imagination.

Little do they know, it requires crazy amounts of money little more return than inner satisfaction, turning heads, and oohs and aahs. Almost all cases, 99.99999999999999%, have no profit or financial gain because in the end it is personal property, not real property. Cars will always depreciate. Modding a car is like modding a computer; sure itll make it cooler, faster, whatever, but in the end it is a financial loss. Get a clue, kids.

Yeah, I used to be one as well. Took me a while to get my priorities straight.

[rco8786]

Oh BTW im 17

I'm 17 to...and when I got my 240(about 2 months ago) I had the 2k to buy a clip. But instead I went for suspension. Now im down to about 7-800 and all my income is going towards the clip. Unlike a friend of mine, who drives a beater w/ 177k miles, has no job, and less than 100 in the bank yet is convinced he will have 2k by xmas time and talks about all these cool mods he's going to do to his car.

[GEO]

LOL, I love people like that.

[Turb0wned]

yea i hear that soooo much i hate that

[Onizuka]

im 18 but i worked my a$$ off to get all the stuff i have and i im willing to take the time and money and drive to a track to get out all the "spirited driving". Its much safer and and you get to do it with a bunch of people interested in the same thing as you.

[Structure240sx]

im 18 too and work my *** off for everything. nothin ever costs as much as u think it will. but if u are patient and serious you will get there. i didnt go turbo until a full year after i "knew" i was

what kind of job do you have? you give me inspiration lol. Although, ive had my car a little over a year and spent $4500+ on it and i still dont have an engine :-(

[Structure240sx]

i was working at denny's serving for the past 2 years until june. now i serve at olive garden and making almost twice as much as denny's, which i keep on sunday mornings cuz i can screw around and there is only one other male server. about 80% of the girls that work there are really really cute too.

[Cyberkreig]

un-claimed tips are where its at.

[sixxdeuce]

I hope all new 240 owners try to drop a sr20 in as soon as they can. That means more cheap Ka's to go around for people who dont want to lose displacment on a swap and cant afford a rb. I hope they keep thinking the Ka is a terrible motor and has no potential for serious power

man, hella hot girls ALWAYS work at olive garden.

[JESTER]

This popularity of the 240 is a reason I am thinking about getting something else. I am thinking about around a 94 Impreza. Something not as popular with the retards that have decided they want nissan instead of honda.

[Structure240sx]

yea there are a couple nice ones at the olive garden. i guess olive garden has quality while denny's has quantity

[APEXi240]

Please don't put Olive Garden and quality in the same sentence.

[droptopsilvia]

sure itll make it cooler, faster, whatever, but in the end it is a financial loss. Get a clue, kids.

what if thats what gives you your inner satisfaction?would you still consider it a loss? nothing is better to me than getting my shiny new car parts and putting them on! except for maybe getting laid afterwards

yes, to some its a waste of $$$$to others an investment to thier persuit of happiness.... To each his own! CHEERS!

[Structure240sx]

true olive garden is like an italian denny's but i was talkin about some of the girls that work there

[APEXi240]

Yeah, I understand, I was just screwin around. I need to find a job with hot girls...well I just need to find a job.
