Yep. It happened this week. I was at a gas station and some dude in a old miata came up to me and asked if I wanted to buy a momo steering wheel. I guess he saw that I still had my stock steering wheel on at the time

Yes. As soon as I got out the car at home, some guy walks up to me and asks if I want to buy his rims. 19' Chrome wheels...WTF? Then I was driving in town, and this guy in a Ford explorer is behind me flashing his lights at me. So when I come to a red light, I poke my head out the window, to see what he wanted. He says " You want to buy an SR?" Who does that

No kidding. My 240 decided it's alternator wasn't a primary component of the car when I went to school. Came out to my car, didn't start. It took a week til I could get the alternator and get down there and fix it in the parking lot.

Stupid shit? Well not really stupid but it bugs me.
Whenever I work on my s13 project in my garage; this black kouki s14 would drive by, and park across the street. he will then sit on the curve with one or two of his buddies and watch me and my friends drink beer and work on the car. I confronted them one time and they said they were just hanging out... Another time same scenario, this beat up bronco (or similiar) pulled up right in front of my garage. And started saying "OH SHIT FUCKING DRIFT CAR BROOO". I said, BRO, its stock, BRO! "Its a 240sx BRO, you must drift da chit out of its!". again bro, its stock, BRO! "DOOD HOW MUCH FOR THAT WHITE S14?" BRO, ITS MY DAILY DRIVER. 7500 CASH RIGHT NOW, I HAVE THE PINK SLIP! "BRO IMMA COME BACK WITH CASH" the dood never came back after getting my front and rear brakes and suspension replaced, and about 24beers later. One last thing, I was warming up my s14 before heading off to work. And some kid in a brand new Mitsubishi Eclipse drives by and parks in front of my garage. He rolls down the window and is like, NICE S14 DOOD. Its stock... whats up, can I help you? Dood, my friend has a s14 too but with the mean front end. S14A? Cool man. so can i help you? How many miles? I dont know.... whats up... How much? 8k CASH DOOD, let me talk to my parents, I want a project car! Cool let me know, I gotta go to work. Its stupid kids that piss me off. Just because I have a 240 doesn't mean I drift or have sr20 or anything like that. Get off my back bitchs!!! |

before I had my own tools n stuff to work on my car I had to take it to shops to get minor repairs done. one time when I called to see about my car being done the guy on the phone said "oh hey, my cousin saw your car and wanted to know if you're selling it?" I was instantly heated. I asked calmy "how mutch is he willing to pay?" the motherfuker says " uhh, 500? " ....I wanted to punch him through the phone. I said, "dude.., I just paid Nissan $750 to instal a new gastank and fuel lines.. sooo..." then he says "oh really? wow ok." then I think, "yeah 'REALLY' you stupid fucker"
I don't know about you guys but when someone asks me if I'm selling my car or if they can buy it, assuming I am selling it, just pisses me off. idk why, maybe it just me. oh and people always gawk at me when I'm filling it up at a gas station. now I sorta know what a HOT girl goes through every day. lol |

I also hate it when someone comes up and talks to you about 240s or drifting and everything they say is wrong and you know it but they will not be corrected
Them: nice car. What year is it? Me: 98 them: oh yeah. My cousin has an 02 240 me: they didn't make 240s in 02 them: yeah they did. They made them until 05 that's when I chuckle and walk off |

i don't think any 240 owner can escape the "do you drift" question. i just tell 'em that live my life a quarter mile at a time, and that i can't wait till i have enough $$ for my new motec exhaust

Yea I know what you mean. When I confronted them, and asked them whats up; I immediately took a picture of all three of the guys sitting on the curve, the license plate, and a side profile picture of the s14. I told them if I see them again near my house, That I will call the police. I haven't seen them in my hood since, but I have seen the black kouki s14 around town (very noticeable s14a mind you).

I got a flat tire once, so I pulled into a gas station and called my friend lost240soul because I didn't have a jack in the car lol (he also drives a 240, green fast back) so I get done changing the wheel and we're about to leave, and this Yellow srt8 Charger decides to be all super cool and try and drift leaving the gas station, and when doing so this dude almost crashes into a curb...to bad he saved it. My friend an I we're just like "Crash,crash,crash....awww damn lol it was pretty funny.

Last night i had a guy tailgating me in a crown vic...i was doing the 40 mph speed limit, kept the speed up through a tight traffic circle, and he tried to do the same and ended up with the tail end kicking out, then he overcorrected and understeered into the curb and was stuck on the snow.
I went back after picking up my camera to get a pick of him and his car. Saw him walking home in a tshirt and jeans and it was 32 degrees out. I wanted to offer him a ride but my dad was in the car and said not to haha. anyway here are pics of his car when he hit the curb his front end went about 2 feet off the ground so i know his shit is fucked up. My dad and I laughed about it for a good 30 minutes.

LOL you guys with no horn should know that's probably one of the easiest fixes. Usually it's the solder that simply gave on the wire to the horn button. Extend the wire, solder, and cover in light coat of JB Weld so that it actually holds.
If you drift and have a cheap hub more often than not the solder will give out for the horn button wire. Usually the wire is much to short and coils around till it breaks offs the solder point. Reason why extending the wire is really a must do and the JB Weld just strengthens the hold.

Happens all the time.
I got my vert a in december 09 and let my parents take it out for a drive. They locked the keys inside and had to wait by the car for about half an hour. A dude drove by in an s14. Turned around, and came back to ask if they are selling the car. Not to bad Before my vert I had a red s13 stock hatch. My friend was driving his BMW 318ti and I in my s13 down the freeway in Portland sort of late ish so not many cars on the freeway. Casually driving mind my own business enjoying my car when out of no where a white riced out CRX comes flying past us and slows down, waits for us to catch up, and takes off again. At this time I call my buddy in his 318ti and came up with a quick plan. Here is what we did: -Caught up to the guy in the ricer -318ti passed him and got in front of him as I pulled up to the side of him -Blocked him in and as I got closer to his car he would steer away from me untill we were in the far right lane. -I turned my hazard lights on and my friend and I began to slow down and I kept forcing him off onto the shoulder -We finally stopped, and the ricer started freaking out as I reached across my car under the seat and brought up a middle finger and took off! fun times |
