Pics of 240SX with seven spokes (finally) and 350Z

[Jumpman-Z]

Here's some pictures that I took of my rides this past weekend. They came out pretty good, in my opinion. I've finally put some factory wheels on my S13. It's not SSR mesh wheels like I really want, but as you can see, it sure as hell beats those ugly hubs, and makes the car look complete. I haven't driven the Z since January, so it was good to take it for a spin and rev the sh** out of it. After just driving the 240 for three months, you really learn to appreciate the VQ's power.

if you ever decide to change wheels on the Z I WANT THEM...lol looks good man...keep up the work

[Bliss]

lord, please post more pictures of the SAME car, over...and over...and over again. :D a bit overkill on a stock S13 and 350.

Why havent you driven the Z since January?

[Jumpman-Z]

I'll probably keep the stock wheels and use them for autox or just for bad weather, but I'd like to get some mesh HREs (can't remember the number) or forgeline wheels. That'll be a loooooooong time from now, though, with the high price of those wheels. I haven't driven the Z because I've been away at college.

[shinhed]

Now, 5-lug conversion for the 240 and put on the the 350z's wheels. :hyper:

some poeple like to appreciate Nissan beauty

not that i dont like seeing a stock clean car, but why post pictures of a STOCK 240sx.. its like saying "hi guys, i own the same car as everyone else."

congrats, your car is clean and looks like its in good condition.

as for the VQ motor, i personally dont care for it. after driving a Z33 around for over a week, i found the car depressing to drive. its tall doorline with small window, not the best visibility, vague clutch feeling, drive-by-wire crap throttle.. i mean, so many little things started bothering me about the Z. I think my favorite part about the Z is its suspension which feels really good, too bad its powered by a very bland motor. I like the Z, but that car definately needs a lot of improvements.

I thought I was alone. I drove the Z33 and was not at all impressed. Dident seem fast to me at all, Just kind of a big car to drive, and the motor was not at all responsive, or atleast dident feel that way. The suspention was ok, but the car dident impress me at all.

[CoasTek240]

i actually cried the first time i drove a z33 bc i really wanted it to be faster. plus, like mike said the cableless throttle is teh sucks!... taking it on a clover leaf course of the nearby off/on-ramp was pretty fun though!
