Official old grumpy assholes of zilvia thread
 

With all of the hulabaloo about turboshoebox floating around ZIlvia, do you really feel that the Work Wheels Quote Time HRE Wheels...Why R They Expensive? Anyone Else Not Like the R35 Rep Wheels, Would U Run Them?

Please let me know what you think. By the way, I'm like...soooooper into the S-Chassis 'thing'. Like, I've loved them for sooooooo long. I know a fuckload about the SR.




Please notice me.

I like his threads, even though I know I shouldn't lol. He provides spaces for us old folk to yell at the clouds.

I think he makes these threads trying to basically ask what the general opinion is about what he wants to do to his car, he just does it in a very different way.

Instead of "I want HRE wheels but they're super expensive"
He asks "Why are HRE so expensive"

So when everybody is like, its easier to find work wheels and replacement hardware for them he goes, okay, i'll spend 3k on meisters instead of 3k on HRE instead.

What ever tickles your pickle, GO FOR IT. Get a Mason jar and stand outside a food store. Gently speak, I need any spare Benjamins for my project and extend the jar toward their face.

nice attention to detail, picking up on the nuance in turboshoeboxes posts :bowdown:

You sure it's not that hubeny guy trolling? Lol. Wtv happened to him anyway?

He and some youtuber nameed tommyfyeah are beefing over some old ass Nismo floor mats.

lol blah blah blah really over some fucking floor mats.

Link to the arguments

....ftfy....

im ah... gonna go ahead and allow this thread

I could be wrong here, but I’m pretty sure that turboshoebox is NiteKids. The posting style and general attitude fits. Pics of his old kouki are easy to find. I am curious as to what he’s driving nowadays, though.

dizzariot is so infatuated with me. He loves to follow my posts and always have something negative to say. Either way instead of just showing what I currently have I'll go thru all the cars.

At Toyota Fest at the queen mary and was on vsxx at that time (even came home with a award)

No S-chasis again at the moment. not jumping on another one till the s15 is legal. Will be my midlife crisis car

Link to the beef? I watch Tommy fresh videos and like all other mainstream videos it's 95% talk with a splash of actual content..

The only videos I watch from that area are Jimmy Oates

should have kept the 240

Should have but can't turn back time. Would have been cool to have kept it in storage for 11 years and it would be a time capsule car when it last modifed late 2006.

Before wide body and color change

Your kouki was so good. It’s no surprise that your cars since have been just as clean.
Honestly, based on the “turboshoebox” name, I was really hoping you’d have some sort of crazy turbocharged shoebox Ford somewhere among the fleet. Lol

Thanks dude I appreciate it.


I'm just a jaded old timer that refuses to follow the latest trends and have stuck with a formula that almost always looks good and is timeless.

Look man, a lot of us subscribe to that ideology. That doesn’t detract that your threads (not posts, ENTIRE THREADS) are the equivalent of an old man yelling from a rocking chair on his porch.

Maybe just post instead of making full-on nonsense threads. Maybe provide some context for your disdain so people don’t think you’re a 14yr-old with no car...or do none of that because this is the internet. Your reputation here will reflect it.

Nice cars nonetheless...but I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t point out the ‘stance’ when you constantly claim you don’t like ‘trends’.

...and are those rep TEs on that Civic?

Isn't that everyone's failure? I would smash mine into a tree before I sold it.

I've always been a jack ass on forums and never been one to sugar coat my thoughts since i had my s14 in 2002. My "online rep" has never been a concern.

I always have had strong opinions when it comes to car stuff even if it's not a popular one.

On another note I would argue that stance isn't a trend but has been awhile for quite some time.(since atleast the late 90's in japan and isn't going anywhere.)

it's just more of a semi recent phenomenon that has caught on in the states. (can't speak for other countries since i don't live there.)


My first aggressive wheel set up w/ pulled fenders and camber was early 2000 on my s14. I only knew one person who done it at the time.(jdmrice richard 240sx red hatch.) i was inspired and did the same thing. so even at time it wasnt a trend. (as far as the states) it was one dude. I was blown away at the set up. I had to have it myself. Never even knew it would catch on. for years i kept calling everyones wheel set ups sunk like a battle ship cause no one was doing it at the time and got banned on many forums for my comments lol

Welp that escalated and de-escalated quickly lol

On another note yes those are te reps on the civic. I'm not proud of that moment but that was the one time i ran reps and never again. cracked multiple times and gave me a huge headache.

now since my prius i only had weds tc007, work m1r, work vsxx, work cr2p and next year i plan on work GT-5 3p

I remember that black s14 kouki on the forums. I think I also saw it in person back in the day at a booth (I want to say the Speed Alliance booth?) in one of the D1GP events and I briefly spoke with the owner about the MSport hood.

yup that was me. wasn't a speed alliance booth tho or maaybe it was. it's been too long. D1GP events were the only events I ever displayed at (as a booth car). can't remember which shop i was with at the time though

Hey sometimes you gotta yell, just like you did in this thread.

BTW, the front on that s14 looks brutal.

Brutal equals bad?

A good aggressive look.

Thanks dude. I never got to finish the exterior to my liking.


Still had canards, craft Square mirrors and voxtex type 2 wing i wanted to do

Aw man the cat is out of the bag lol

Still fucking stupid

Are u talking about ur ls swap?

To each is own bitch, glad to know youre local. Cant wait to meet you in person

lol agree. still a dumbass.

i'd pay you to make it happen.

You say to each his own but then ur mad I don't like ur choices:ugh:

Why u care so much what I think

Your posts are meaningless and waste peoples time. So you post some photos of your old and current car and that's supposed be the blessing all is forgiven? No you're still a douche. I don't go around asking for opinions on what to do with my car, I use this forum to find answers, sell/buy items, and contribute in what ways I can. All I ever see come from you is SHIT. I don't care what you think but you've ran your mouth to me many times in the past. Again, so happy to hear you're local. I walked by your ugly ass Prius at Toyofest, wish I would have been able to associate you to it then. See you around I hope.

I only posted pics cause I got called out on it. I felt no reason to "prove myself." And post up just to post up

My opinions are my opinions. You of all people seem to take it most personal for some reason. You must blow up on every one that doesn't like ls swaps

potatoes .

<3 <3 <3 <3

I can not believe how seriously people take internet in 2018. Honestly, fuck your LS swap. What u gonna do about it? Get mad or just scroll on and keep jerking off to some junkyard engine? I'd pick the last one. :kiss:

<3 Much love to you too bitch

...I'm pretty happy with the outcome of this thread. Nothing can excuse being an asshole (I should know) but the context helps make things easier to put up with on this forum.

I still think you post a lot of shit that doesn't have to be a full-blown thread.

Cuss each other out!

Afishysilvia and turboshoebox I bet if you see each other in person nothing will happen right?

If you fight please record it.

I still think turboshoebox is a cunt. I even agree with most of the stupid shit he posts, I just think he makes himself sound like an idiot in the process of (trying) to make his point. There are better ways to get your point across than (like what dizzariot said) sitting in your rocking chair on your porch and bitching about shit you don't like.

Hell I come off as abrasive on here most of the time, I've even pissed off dizzariot by telling him to stop bitching about yokosuka. But I'm sure we could both sit down and have a beer and talk about all of turboshoebox's shitposting.

What can I say is I'm a old timer yelling at the sky not approving of most stuff people do to their cars now a days.

I have closure

It's the internet. Who the eff cares??

Can a mod change the thread title to "Official old grumpy assholes of zilvia thread"

Its kind of like how a bunch of people are snapping daily over trump... I sit back and watch the shitshow, because I'm in control of my emotions lol

Someone get mad come on!

im jumping in because of the new thread title 100% bout that old head life

like did you even search? you're not the first one to put oil in your SR or do a KA-T

:drama::drama::drama:I love zilvia

threads like this, trolls, and sensitive people are what made this place hilarious and entertaining at one point. bless up. keep up the good work

you know what? Fuck new cars. I fucking hate new cars. There I said it.

Can we set something up like a under ground fight club? I'd have my money on Afishysilvia. I'm off weekends let me know

in

Talk a lot of shit driving a prius looking like that you "old man" who's so purist correct hahaha. Now that we all know TK....

https://i.imgur.com/SmI2nCQl.png

when does the official 'grumpy old asshole' group go live and what color do their names get to be?

I'm confused why you put "old man" in quotes. I don't care you don't like my prius. It's a unpopular car that I have fun tinkering with.

Also please define "prius looking like that" What do you find distaste full as far as the modifications. (Don't say the whole car cause we both already know prius is gay but i still try to keep it all authentic jdm or oem parts)

Just like your ls swap. It's unpopular for those who perfer to keep it jdm. but you have fun with it

News cars and 2 sensors for every system they can find....

<3<3<3<3

In case anyone needs a better picture, he already "exposed" himself on page 1... lolol

Well i have to say...i havent been so thoroughly entertained on a forum in quite some time. nice work fellas



YEA! fck new cars.

I happen to like my Rocket Bunny kit. I’ll agree with you on the “fuck LS swaps”. I also happen to DD a Honda Fit so I cant talk shit about the Toyota lol

I feel like I fit into the old guy category. Habits of ours include: nitpicking each other's builds and talking shit about the newbie stance kids.

I don't post a ton because I didn't think anyone on here was over 25!! I'm 50 so I win the oldest, grumpiest award!! I hate that the "Honda kids" have taken over the 240 scene so I'm stuck being the only guy at the hot rod meets with a Japanese car! On the plus side I have given a lot of other "old guys" a new respect for 4cyl turbo motors.

It’s funny how older American muscle car guys hate on 4 cylinders till they are shown what a 4 cylinder can do.

I feel like I started this thread to flush out a foe in turboshoebox.

...but it's transformed into a thread I can call home.

I love the ol' Zilv'.

Iv noticed since coming back to Zilvia that there are a good amount of old school members >10 years. That would mean the majority of us are in our 30’s now. I was 17 when I joined, I’m about to be 32 in a couple of months.

Cheers to getting old and grumpy everyone

Yeah but you're from Florida so, you're wrong.

I am very pleased that my wish for thread title change was granted.

Thank you, Magic Zilvia Genie.

Even better is when two American muscle are racing and your V8 swap of silent darkness in the other lane where they didn't even notice takes everyones lunch from that dead stop, and you get to leave them all behind thinking that a 4-cylinder just did that. Which is impossible, but I digress, as it puts the smile in the V8 soup that makes up for coming home smelling like gasoline every damn day.



F new cars crew

10 year+ members, yet you know what's sad? Most of our builds aren't finished yet :wtc: MOST build threads are either works in progress, abandoned, or they ended up being parted out...

You know guys, the more I work on newer cars, the more I believe in the saying "they don't make them like they used to"... Yah, must be getting old.
You guys know that "salt bae" guy? I would like to do a parody of that guy, but instead of using salt, use the tubing of a wire harness from a new car. You guys know you couldn't do that with an old harness. Embarrassing for car manufacturers, but hey, they still still sale!

They have all been pretty cool about it, probably because I'm close to same age as most of them. I like all kinds of cars but I've had a soft spot for the S14 since October of 1995. I had S30's forever but the wife finally said 'no mas" on the no AC. I've been secretly looking to get another one but that damn Sung Kang made the market go crazy!

His s30 is with his na rb26 is cool but the trendy rocket bunny stuff is a no go

Sung Kang's z would of been so much cooler with a g-nose and watanabe.

Cars these days will never me timeless like this.

I've always been a HUGE fan on the G-Nose. All the old J-tin is getting silly, I've looked at a couple old king kab long bed Datsun and Toyota trucks that you could buy in the 80's for nothing and people are starting to ask 3/4 grand for.

Same. Sup dude.

Meaning you look like a bitch and match the car <3. Not once have I gone on here ranting about how obvious and common the KA-T/SR swaps are. After owning multiple 240's with both SR/KA-T engines I chose to go another route. So in regards to your LS hate, personally I don't give a fuck what anyone does with their car, nor do I care what people want me to do with my car. In almost every thread related to engine swapping V8's everyone talks shit about American V8's and has a hard on for a 1uz. Point of this thread was obviously more than that, it was about your shit attitude and the amount of shit you talk you keyboard warrior so why not stop and keep it on priuschat.com TK Rocket.

I'm not alone. thank God

Lmao u couldn't even come up with a legitimate diss.

Go fun with ur cx racing and God speed parts.

U keep saying u don't care what people say but I keep hitting a nerve with u

I believe I called you a bitch, and I would if I met you in person too. Not sure you would do the same but I'd love to set something up. Anytime

Lol and learn to use proper grammar you FOB

Why would I take up the time to meet up when the only person that is mad u?

You that thin skinned about other people's opinions on the internet?

Piss off until you can be a man you cunt :x:

Lol FOB , Maybe him and sergio180sx blow each other and talk about how bad ass one another's Prius is
