so i was out working on my RB25DET install today, a guy comes over and starts talking about my motor swap, not wanting to advertise the RB i just say yeah yeah a bigger motor, etc etc

then the guy walks around the motor and says wow that's a big motor, that must be the BIG skyline motor isn't it?

i say well since you guessed it anyways yeah it is a skyline motor, but not the big one.

the guy is like huh? all i have seen in those other 4 cyl skyline motors, like that guy over there is working on (motions to a car with a SR)

i just go yeah and continue working on swapping the X-member


point is if you don't know that mutch why would you make a fool out of yourself?

same thing happened to me one night. some guy came running up to my car when i was working on it at this shop wondering if he could see some fuse in the engine bay. hood was already up so i said sure. he had no idea what i had done to my engine. i told him i painted the valvecover red and added a individual coil setup. he took me seriously too. idiot.

i walked past this 240 today and as usual i check it out. looked like a 89 since it had the pignose, it was a hatch, looked inside and it had an auto shifter. i was like hmm everything is stock so i assume its no one i could have a good convo with. next thing i know some guy about 40 (it was his hatch) asks me what size tires im running (i have stock SE in front and Z32 in back). i tell him 205 in front and 225 in back, hes like o 17's or 18's? im like ??? (and to think i had my hopes up about talking about cars with an older guy), i said 16's.... next thing he says yea well i just got a new motor in this car, im like cool, dual cam? he looks confused so i asked what motor, he says SR20. i think to myself, it looks completely stock and it's auto. i asked him, you left it automatic? he was quiet for awhile, hesitates then studders "yea". i was like cool and left..

maybe he had a auto SR20 but what do you think......

someone mentioned FJ and got excited. Too bad I'm dissapointed :hsdance:

Does anyone know who bought the FJ from JHOT in Georgia (I think)?

Anyway, it's a good thing they don't know about your motors, unless that is you're only driving this car to get noticed...

nah as stated, i was just playing stupid all day and would only say if someone guessed it and was sure of thier guess. by then they know what it is already. I don't need a stolen car.

Wow, your toothless hobo's semi know what's up.

As for my long story short. I was changing out my starter/ignition system. And two catholics came asking me if I found God or something to that sort. When one of the two pointed to my car and said, "Is that an SR"? The other said to he that it's the stock ka. Blah blah blah~ he lived in japan for a few years. And then they proceded to help my work on my car for a bit and they left.

a few s2000 guys met up a local firehouse subs for a get together before we head out to a meet as a big group... anyways we had a guy that owned a red integra with a wite big lighitng bolt decal on the side of the car and a loud bee like sounding exhaust came up to us and asked what all we had done...We all told him what we had, coilovers, ARC stuff, Ti exhaust just to name a few things we mentioned which I know he has no clue what we are talking about... He nodded his head and asked if we done the engine swap yet, we looked at each other and asked what swap are you talking about. He said if we done the CRV swap for the RWD cause he is thinking about doing it too.

Gwad... seriously we were so dumb fonded that we started to say a 1jz swap was better with its dual rotary and forged pistons... the fuckin guy just nodded his head and said yeah that sounds way better to do too and he is going to do a search on it... we all told him good luck and went about out quick get together... sigh...
