Where is this creativity you speak of from the Honda boys? I see LHD drive cars that look like they drove off the showroom in a dealership in Japan...
i see some ugly lookin 240's in my area.
I voted for Honda just because I think most Honda's are kinda pointless to mod or put any money into. Can put new shoes on it, but a 15 year old Civic is still a 15 year old Civic...
I also dislike all the stupid faddish stickers people are putting on their cars (mostly I see 240's) that just make them look cheap. Not really the ones advertising mods they have, ones with dumb phrases that are so omg funny :rolleyes:
I love how you bash my E30 when it gets so many compliments your car never gets. :lmfao: My car is clean, purpose built, and looks good. Your car is shit, shit, and not even built for shit.Quote:

I thinking about welding my VLSD soon, or just getting an open diff then weld... I'm sick and tired of its, "semi-diff" type ways... Before i even think of welding my diff, i wonder how bad it would effect it as in daily driving?Quote:

It's a 240, they suck for drifting honestly.
then your gonna love the one i saw this weekend in MarylandQuote:

not not when you start comparing it to formula d cars no. yes i only realy care for the motor. ive never cared to much for looks. thats always last. performace first. my sr20 with 400hp welded diff and coilovers feel pretty damn good to me and impress everyone that it comes in contact with. i rather drift this car than any other one. maybe a z or g25 but realy the 240 has good steering angle and well balanced car and running 12.3 spining with terrible 60ft like 2.0 on street tires is shitty? trapping at 117 is not shit? bump it up to 20lbs keeping up with 600cc bikes is not worth shit. damn your car must be the fucking shit then. like i said before these are perfect drift cars. thats why they didnt use them in japan or formula d?Quote:

Hell i could give you a list of my "handling" faults, but that doesn't it make me love it any less. Sure you have a few problems, but some people like to work from the bottom up, its not like we are starting on a platform with a horrible weight distribution. The car has lots of potentiality, kinda like a civic/crx with a B-swap...:rolleyes: STOCK(crx/civics) they are slow as balls, but some work and then you learn how to appreciate it.
Drag racing is gay, lol, impress me, bring it to a road course, then you will see it's not shit.Quote:

The stupid camber trend is just that...
edit:dunno if it was already said...but there..lol
I got a nasty looking 240 with an sr. They are the worlds best drift car and you expect people not to drift them. They are cheap to maintain and make fast. Just like mustangs.Quote:

By "what's been done to them", I was referring to how they seem to be "disposable" to some people...who said anything about drifting...ok some people bashed drifting, but not me...I think it's kinda cool when done right...
Just another "trend" to follow til something else comes around...I call these the "fallout kids"...kids who only got into cars in general because of a particular movie series...
again...didn't wanna offend, but if you/your car fall into this category, then...:gay:
cool to know my opinion matters...lol
Stock 240's arent shit, you are right, but hell a stock e30(M3 doesn't count) is just as bad or worse. E30's are cheap and yes, when built right they can be good. That is why E30's like 240's are a popular entry level car to build for racing. And also when people say 240's handle like shit they should specify which generation b/c I think the 14 handled significantly better.Quote:

Couldn't vote. There wasn't an all the above option.
u sir just made the smartest post yet. lol
i think i would have to say, Honda & Nissan, every car looks the same, the only thing different is the owner.. same swaps, same wheels, same everything, they have nothing new, or new ideas for there own cars, and they smir shit on there cars and call themselves different, when in fact they just copied someone else.
If you think 240sx are gayness you need to shoot yourself with the shotgun NAO!
I hate the "dumped" fad with the honda kids! It looks so dumb to me when it looks like they took the shocks and springs out of the car!
I'm exempt from this "stupid" look, lolol. Later, QD.Quote:

they're all fags.
one thing that kills me on 240sx is sexy pants shit on the side... yes it has a meaning but most others put it on not to support it. but to make a fuckin joke out of it hoping others will laugh imo any thing like that (breast can.) or any type of life threating thing like that shouldnt be a fad in hopes others think you are coool fuckin faggots.
Yours I would called lowered I am fine with a lowered car i have had a few in my day. I am fine with lowered as long as it still rides decent and can clear a small speed bump! I just cant stand how its become a limbo contest with honda kids! It looks so stupid to me watching one drive and bounce all over the highway that looks like a bagged mini truck trying to lay frame!Quote:
