What is up guys! Im a 16 year old kid from lacey,washington! I own a 1990 s13 Hatchback swapped with a s14 70,000 mile ka24de. Question for you guys. What age did you seriously get into cars? If you did start later in life, do you regret not starting earlier? Did you jump straight into S-chassis's,If not what started you, and what got you into S-Chassis's?
Thanks! Have a good day!

I got into cars when I was a fetus, not by my own accord, but still, I was getting in to and out of cars.

This is great!

"I finally learned something, I must share my accomplishments with strangers and maybe I'll get a pat on the back"

This "Trying to be accepted" culture is the cause of what we see in the "Doing it Wrong Thread" today.

There is still soooo much to learn my young grass hopper, AND ITS FREE!!!!!!!! AND NO ONE GIVES A DAMN THAT YOU LEARNED!!!!! its sort of expected now actually

I was 17

Joined the Marine Corps and spent my teenage years in Japan. Started with Japanese women then got an A31 cefiro to go see those women. Driving I noticed the Skyline, 180SX, Silvia etc, and one night I stumble on a parking area anyone raced. And it started Traded my A31 RB20E/AT for a RB25DET/MT and started tuning and it grew from there.

We dont know that he is 16 or not riding on hockeypuck lowering kit.

Im a glass half empty kind of person but no one should be getting a gold star for doing something we all did without asking for approval.

I love your comments ixfxi. I dislike when people say things like "dent free except rear quarter panel". Frustrates me so much because it feels like they are minimizing what is wrong or trying to cover it up with word games.

OBEEWON where areeee youuuuuu?

I felt a disturbance in the force, so I logged onto Zilvia and noticed this thread needed my attention.

Firstly, whilst my mother was yet a virgin she was contacted by the proper authorities to be warned of a dapper gentleman that woulds't desire her proprietaries. Are you ready?
OK
Sex
After which I was in the womb sitting sideways on a lean scheming as to which hobby I would partake in. Before things got too hot I made an escape plan and fell onto the birthing table.

Sidebar:
In many cases babies fall into a pile of poo because the birthing muscles are similar to that of the poop muscles and the impregnated decided to eat a large chicken cheese steak hoagie with wiz on the side and the stomach acids transform it into a steaming hot poo.

This is where the term poopy pants originated from in the early 70's coined by none other than Jean Luke Piccard. :picardfp: Oh you modest fellow. Dost not shroud thine face from the fame of your clever diatribe. In as much revel in its glory and engage the thrust before the clingons smear their fecal matter on your forehead.

But I digress.

Whist passing the Fallopian tube I received a stroke of wit that announced itself vaguely to my facial region. A whisper of an idea really, but none the less clear.

"cars..." it said in a quiet hush.

Well alright then I said right before holding my breath for the exit.

Luckily my mother was a vegetarian at the time and cheese steak hoagies were nothing she was familiar with and I landed handily on the birthing table devoid of shats.

That was the day I decided the machine of choice would be none other than the chariot that most likely carried Elisha from this earthly whoa to the heavens above and beyond.

A 1991 Nissan 240sx SE hatchback two tone extraordinaire.

Now I know you are looking pecularly at your screen saying
"But Mr. OB, how could you know about the Nissa240 whilst you were but a puking ball of baby meat so fresh and clean fit for the meal of abortion advocates?"

And as a response I say, what a strange way to pose an objection. But an objection none the less so allow me to retort. See I am of maximum human intelligence and whilst not a seer of the future, I am so smart I can calculate things within a millionth of wrongness. So by deductive reasoning and utilizing the energy already in my belly being as though I had not suckled at the teet of my mater I called into memory the vibrations of Japan whilst my mother ate Chinese food. (I know Japan is not China but I'm a military vet so don't interupt me please okay number 1 so good.)

By the way, your reading comprehension could use a polish of the verbatim.

OK. Now. that is when I became a man.
Although it might be the time I first kissed a white girl.

In the beginning, I was pretty into Hot Wheels and Micro Machines. My Dad subscribed to Road & Track and I picked one up around 7 years old. Before long, I had the specs of every 90's era sports car committed to memory.

I would pick up the Auto Trader at the corner store weekly. My Dad and I would go out together on weekends, listening to Car Talk on the radio, searching for the right candidate of a project car. After looking at and researching about MGBs, Triumph TR6s, Porsche 914/944s/ Fiero GTs, VW Karmann Ghias, I decided that the first generation Z car had the best looks and most potential. I signed up for HybridZ forums and sucked up as much knowledge about those cars as I could.
Used all of my life's birthday present money to buy a 1976 280Z at 14.
Got my permit on my 15th birthday. Got my license on my 16th birthday.
Bought my second car, a 1991 S13 240sx from a friend when I was 17. Joined Zilvia a year later.

13 years later, the Z is gone :(
but the S13 is still with me!

I started at 14, but to be honest, at that time I really just annoyed my father to teach me shit. He let me do all the shit work though :).

Rebuilt my first motor back when I was 17, again with the teaching of my father.

None of you got shit on my dad tho (not even me :-/), rebuilt his first engine at age 14

Grew up watching my dad race Dirt Mods, Grandpa owned a salvage yard. i liked watching my grandpa weld and my favorite hobby was throwing rocks through the windows of cars in the salvage yard till my grandpa got frustrated and got a big ass school bus with tons of windows for me to throw rocks through.
Despite my fathers advice to get something with a V8 i became fascinated with turbos riding in my friends TT MKIV supra through highschool.
Got my 240 at 16 boosted and blew it up by 17, built motor and turbo again by 18/19
After popping that first motor my dad suggested to do a V8 but there werent really many people doing V8 swaps 8 years ago and i aready had all the KA-t parts
I'm 22 now. Awesome hobby
Met bushido. I never really liked to admit seeing the picture of his car on p45r's after he had the first molds casted made me buy p45r's. Ironically enough it was before i met him/knew he lived in town a mere 4 miles from my house.
Bushido and I circa 2011?

The move I've used a few times in the past: recline both seats all the way back, have the chick put one knee on each seat bottom with her head facing the windshield and ass up. Get in the back seat to hit it from behind. What's your method?

I motion to change thread title to "zilvia shagging techniques: methods for S-car smutting"

But then it will just be about a bunch of homos in tight jeans saying how they have gay butt sex while going sideways in their drift missiles.

you know, at this point it would probably easier to just do it OUT of the car. this doesnt sound romantic at all. come on man, if you're going to subject a woman (or women) to such extreme measures - at least do it with some class. :-P


my method, which i have no intention of ever using again in this lifetime, is as follows:

- both front seats, full tilt forward
- rear seats down
- cargo cover was removed, resting against the front seats
- hatch is part open
- pillows + blanket

hmm. nowadays, this seems like a lot of work. just get a motel. but back then we were young, willing and able. plus, being parked on a mountain vista really sealed the deal. mind you, this was not a mere 5 minutes of fun... this was easily over 1 hour. easily.

gotta up your game, gentlemen.

LOL. Banging in a fogged out 90's era compact coupe. CLASS.

Listen Clearcorners Mike, you may well be the master of automotive lighting... but I used to drive a supercharged Previa with a suede bed in the back.
I know a thing or two about class.

Dang. I love those Previa's. I was stucked with a 92 V6 Caravan in highschool.
