looks like fun, not my style, espically for a DD (gas milage and reliability are important in a DD for me), but to each his own.

Should have gotten the Z06, or got something that gets better mileage for a daily.

You got it...worst I got so far is 18.6 in the city, best is 27.1 on the highway...that's not bad for a v8 with 350hp....better than the 14mpg I was getting in my xterra....

Hell yeah, why have a 6-speed vette and 5-speed 240? Ever driven a car with a triple plate clutch? Makes you wish you had an auto...but yeah, it's fun...

Don't be jerks and talk down on his choice.
Congradulate, cause this thing can blow the doors off of most of us.

90% of Zilvians can't even afford another car.
Congrats turbo98. Is that a swap near your lot? Or just a bunch of trees.

I'm in that 90%.
Only cause i've got 3.
LOLZ.
Actually, 2 should be gone in the next couple days, then the s13 should be gone...then I guess it's time for an s14.

That's just trees....lol...and thanks for the understanding...I didn't buy this to be a race car or anything, just a nice ass car that has everything and still looks good....I have the s14 for speed and unreliability...lol...nah, it should be reliable...I only have 1 thing left on it that's oem and that is the driveshaft...and the interior, but who counts that....lol

lol i know GM stopped making porno red interiors when the 80s ended but i didnt know they brought hooker red interiors back in the late 90s :eek:
haha j/k man, it looks mint. and will definitely pull in the gold diggers. i wouldnt mind one, insurance blows me on it, and i cant talk my dad into getting one since he loves his truck and would rather have a 63 split window instead of a new one.
aerodynamic car + good gearing = 30mpg highway & 1500rpm @ 80mph LOL!
most people dont see those numbers, it's only reserved for stock vettes and those w/o lead foots, which leaves very few.

You're allowed to do intake, full exhaust, and intake manifold. All the stuff that gives power but doesnt take more gas. Beyond that you arent allowed to on a daily driver.
p.s. Do you know what super charger model was on the Xterra stock?
