    my car has battle scars all over it. has the most redic stickers you could imagine on it. no crack dash, interior clean as fuck. no window crack. tach works. i can drift. i love doing it. i love my 240. makes great power for very little money. its a very well balanced car for drifting. it does have a welded diff but any of those that have seen me drift i do my thing. im real sick of people putting down other peoples cars. not everybody can afford a g35 to drift in or a svt cobra to race. or maybe they like the style. i think a lot of us have forgotten why we even build or fix up cars. because we simply love to do it. some are easier than others and thats all thats available to them.

    then again most that are into building cars don't hold the passion like others. That's something you can't hand out. You wont find many people that understand and know the true value of other cars then of their own, and appreicate others cars for it be a Ferrari to a Cube... That's why we have trends, because others are afraid to do something different.

    As, far as people hating 240's that drift, that is more of a ban-wagon, people jump on to feel the comfort of others agreeing with them.

    Most other 240's i've seen/talked too/ or that i know that drift, are ass-hats. EX:darren. (sp?) So that has started this "phase" everyone wants to be apart of.

    Oh, yeah and most others i've seen drift want to do it to go silly sideways but hold no true value with it. IMO i love know what my car can do in it stock form, and to learn all it. Others are soo into, OMG i have to build this car i just got, not knowing or understanding the car in stock form. Which to me is a problem, now i dont have a wielded diff, but a VLSD isn't anything to brag about. I might get an open diff and wield till i get a clutch type LSD. Its all to have fun. To me its just great to be able to keep control of your car while its "out of control". Anyways, If others would learn to appreciate, other cars other then there own, the "scene"/"game"/"w/e" will return how it once was.

    lol if you think he can drift you should see me and david, nhan, matt, todd....lol hes the last person i would think of lol

    and i appreciate every car that has been build or work put into it because i myself do all my own work and know how much time effort and money is involved. no matter what car it is or what style or trend it is i always step back and look at all the work thats been put into a car....even these so called ricey cars

    No, i don't think he can. Actually i don't like him one bit, what i was saying is he is the type of person who soiled drifting, and make others frown on it. I've heard of the others who drift, i know they are good,lol. I dont plan on getting out with the "cooler dirfters", till i get my suspension parts/motor ready. Till then, i just solo.

    EDIT: Most others don't build their own, they buy, or have others build it, but when you start from the ground up, you then can appreciate EVERY thing you have... even a 707 Hp 240 with A/C and power steering...

    Yeah, i will be sure to hit you up, when i get a new phone, and when my mom is out of the hospital. Congrats on the coil'overs, what brand are you going with? 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?

    EDIT: oh and i need my sway bars. I need to get out of this stock suspension. Too much body roll, has understeer, lots snap-steer... ahh, i could just keep going...

    THE truth. im pretty sure all the hate comes from honda owners. but remember, ITS IA!!! lol this place is a joke. so are 90% of most forums bro. i really did think that we worked and built our cars because we love to do so. now its just a fucking popularity contest lol. yeah its nice to drive down the road and have people stop and stare, but its gonna end up in your garage at the end of the day. it really only matters if YOU love your car.

    You don't even work on your car, you sell it because you can't figure out how to swap a transmission.

    Your 240 doesn't have scars or anything, it's a bucket of rice with not one good item on it. You can't even drift.

    THE POST ABOVE ME, THAT IS THE WORST TREND EVER, THE RICERS WHO ACT ALL BAD ASS AND JUST HARD PARK THEIR SHIT BOXES.

    I love how you bash my E30 when it gets so many compliments your car never gets. My car is clean, purpose built, and looks good. Your car is shit, shit, and not even built for shit.
