S-Chassis Nostalgia (NO BANDWAGGON JUMPERS!!)
This thread is for the true OG S-chassis people. Enjuku posted up a pic of his drag S13 and it really got me tripping down memory lane...
I would like the people that have aquired thier S-chassis BEFORE all the hype, before they had a honda and switched over, before Tokyo drift, before Formula D, D1, Red Bullcrap, even before Initial D was big in the states. Now I don't really conscider myself a true OG, more like a Jr. OG. I wanted a 240 since I was 11 or 12, When the S14 came out it was my achievable "dream car". Post pictures of when you first got your car, sunk wheels and all...Horrible body kits, gay wings, full of that 90's and for some of you fossils 80's styling flavor. Please if you are brand new, PLEASE dont ruin the thread with a brand new pic. I wanna see scanned grainy photos! TRUE, ORIGINAL S-CHASSIS LOVERS... Have at it... |
We did something similar to this in the Premium Members Section back in January. Cool Thread.
Here's my submission, though I may not be "OG" enough. It's only 2002. http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4160/firstpicek0.jpg |
Sweet, thats what I'm looking for. Ill post mine when I get to my old comp. You beat me by a few years anyway.
|
i'd post pictures of my car from 7years ago, but I have to get the scanner hooked up haha.
|
I got into 240's in 2000... I was 13... Obviously I couldn't afford one then. When I finally could afford one, they became what they are now.
|
Anybody who was anybody in SoCal had a JSPEC.COM sticker on their car.
|
I can try to find pics, but in elementary and middle school (as early as 1995), my friend's brother had a red pignose s13 coupe that was slammed, had some mesh wheels, and exhaust. It was love at first sight for me.

Bought from the original owner as seen in pics. My only addition was the enjuku clear signals and the konig impact wheels at the time.
Has since been changed around...a LOT. RHD, S15 front, origin kit, etc etc... But heres reppin 2001 baby. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...13/240Side.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3...92/S13/Ass.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3.../RearSide2.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a3.../S13/rims1.jpg |

YES! fake convertible top! i was 18 when i had that car and didnt even know what i had at the time. then i picked up my second coupe from Ken at enjuku. it was a stripped out black coupe with ICW wheels! i'll have to see if i still have pictures of it!

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...hit/red240.jpg My first 240sx I paid $600 for cause the idle wasn't right! Sweet deal. Paid $900 for these high offset fake-o's w/tires.(what the hell is offset? I even got lowering springs from eibach. you can see the amazing results!haha I also got the dual tip exhaust for free from friend. I thought I was the shit with these rims.hehe. But hey at least I loved her. Got this in I think 2003. Kinda read here and there about 240's. Had an Integra before that that was stolen. And before that a '94 Altima. Jeez, I remember I thought 240's were piles of crap when I had the Altima, like "those things are not that fast,why would anybdy buy one?"hahaha Now I love the S-chassis. It was also when Daijiro Yoshihara's "jdm s13 silvia" was featured in a magazine and blew my mind! Then I moved to California, so on and so forth. hope I qualify for this, it feels nostalgic. Based on how clueless I was when I started, and noow the S-chassis has taught me how to work on car's. (like I had a choice! read"tough love") |
its not old enough, my older pics are film... to lazy to find the pics.
