It was nice while it lasted. I think a few of you out there might remember my white 240SX with Silvia front end...

Well, there was a horrible accident last weekend. Here are some pictures of the aftermath...

I'll post more pics when I get the chance. My hopes of getting my car into Super Street are shattered.

Your car was one of my "firsts" as tuned US 240s. I love your write ups, so I'd like to be the first to say that I think your car still looks great. Hopefully you'll get into a mag better than SS though. :-/ Seriously, it looks nice, good thing you hung onto your orignal bodywork (it looks) I hope you'll be happy again with it soon.

Sorry to hear about your accident. :( I'm glad it's made a quick recovery though.
I think it looks good with the stock front end, especially with the VS aero. :coold:

NISMOoPW: Nice to hear I was one of your firsts. I have to admit Neko has broken a few cherries out there... The thing about Super Street was a joke. :)

I sold the Silvia front end, and it's now rolling around Seattle in Sil80 mode.

Heh, nice. Version Select? The MB wheels on the front look better on the S13 than they do on my S14.

I was hoping you were joking about the SS thing. :barf:

But anyways, cool that you're moving on before going stale. Good thing I happened upon that post, it might have been a while since I would have visited your site (I have my own winter project this time) and I would have been confused as all hell. :wtf: Good luck with it. I'm glad to hear no ducks were damaged. :Ownedd:

I hate you Errin. You scared the crap out of me. I thought you'd killed your car.
All you did was change face and slap some aero on. You suck.

I seriously thought you crashed your car.....becareful when you joke around like that. *shakes fist in air*

I have to agree with mr fleas that scared the crap outta me!! lol since ther was no accident I'll say this. PAINT THE DAMN FENDERS and quickly :p heheh still looks great E

NekoPunch

09-09-2004, 07:46 AM

atom, you're correct the aero is Version Select.

Sorry if I scared you guys. Actually, there was an accident but it involved a ton of zipties, a power drill, two rabbis, and a strap-on. Trust me, you don't want to see those pictures...

Hey Steeles, the fenders and hood should get painted this weekend along with the aero kit which also needs paint. Yippee.

Steeles

Man i always goto your site to check out whats new going on with your s13..btw what size wheels/offset u running? and also how's the fit ment on the version select? from here it looks like it has great fitment

:coolugh:

09-09-2004, 10:38 PM

looks good neko... how was overall fitment of the kit?

NekoPunch

09-10-2004, 08:09 AM

Thanks everybody. Glad to hear most of you approve of the change. :)

So what do you all think... Wing? No wing?

Steeles, "championship white" is that what it's called? Neat, I didn't know. Yes, I'm keeping the car white.

MoD: Hey man, good to hear that you got some decent fenders. Take care of that front end because I know I'm going to miss it sometimes.

FRPilot, it's a type 3.

Yo Mike, I'd like to see you try. :)

crooklyn and TK, for me the version select fitment was excellent. I have no complaints. I only needed to slightly sand down the corners and drill mounting holes. Quality of the hand laid FRP is great too. Light and fairly flexible. I've tried AIT fitment (and heard all about GTP) on my car and frankly there is no comparison.

Hopefully, after the stuff is painted I can post better pictures and do a more detailed writeup. Thanks.

no wing OF COURSE
is that even a question?!?!?!?!?!?

aznpoopy

09-10-2004, 08:28 AM

+1 no wing... it looks cleaner IMO.

09-10-2004, 12:16 PM

haha wait till jooky sees this
the sides and rear sure look a lot like his msports
not to mention his silver fn01rc

badass

NekoPunch

09-11-2004, 05:51 PM

Okay... Two votes for no wing. No votes for wing. No wings win, so no wing for the Neko.

I thought it looked better before the kit but its all good. Your car still looks gangsta :P

DoriftoSlut

09-12-2004, 06:21 PM

Mmmmm... But my car won't have AIT much longer. I was planning on going the route of my Neko friend here., Except he pulled a fast one and switched to Onevia. He told me about the aero but i assumed it was all Silvia... Tricky little cat. Errin, get down here in December! My 21st is the 18th (same day as D1) and Me, Daijiro, and Tony Angelo are celebrating with a bash (their 'day is the 24th). So yeah, fun times.... bring the car, the video camera, and a change of clothes!

Plenty of Touge, maybe a track day, and a lot of partying. Ever seen Dousan drunk?! HA! You will!

P.S.: I think if you DID get a wing.... it should be a HUGE GT wing. That would rule.

Neko.......whats your overall impression of the fit and finish of that product?

-m

NekoPunch

09-12-2004, 10:19 PM

Yo Dorifto! Yeah, I definitely kept the "re-version" on the down-low. But you deserve some of the credit for the change, right? :) Man I'd love to come down and hang with you guys this December. I'll see what I can do.

If I got a wing it would definitely be a huge 3D, but I don't know. Wings go out of style so quickly.
