What stupid shit has happened to you because of your 240? - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

BustedS13 · 02-19-2010, 03:11 AM

yeah, Hondas are nowhere near as cool as a 1000 dollar s13.

s13drob · 02-19-2010, 03:19 AM

No I don't think you understand what I'm trying to say. Since alot of people have em there's alot of kids/posers/whatever you wanna call em, that throw a exhaust on it and be obnoxious. Maybe I wasn't making sense. Idk. That's my story.

BustedS13 · 02-19-2010, 03:22 AM

nah, i understand. it's just that the Honda crowd isn't THAT much different from the 240sx crowd. i don't understand the draw to front wheel drive economy cars, but then again i don't understand why most of the 240 guys jerk off to burning tires instead of proper driving. to suggest one group is better than the other is kind of silly, although now i'm not sure if that's what you meant.

s13drob · 02-19-2010, 03:41 AM

That's true. Although I don't jerk it to burning tires. Haha. Around here I don't see many 240s. I'm not disrespecting hondas. It's just there's alot of posers in that group cuz of the popularity (aka bandwagoners) I think that's why most of my bad experiences are with hondas.

Another story. I was revved on from a couple lanes over With a big semi between us from another civic. I just laughed with my lady. Too many bad expierences.

Yes but atleast 240s are a proper RWD sports car, people that drive a FWD econobox and try and turn it into a sports car are just stupid.

What do you know, the car directly next to me flips on the reverse lights. But there's no way, she's gonna back up, I mean, I'm right here and she clearly would have seen me because I'M RIGHT HERE and blocking her car.

But no, she starts backing up, and of course, I have no horn.

So I roll down the window and yell my lungs out until she plows my car.

Then this asian lady gets out all surprised. Bitch.

awww =( wtf ....

i had luck on mine i work at autozone and we share parking at the plaza.
but damn this place gets packed,
never any parking there.

and same thing was going to happen til the guy in front of me move and i made it thru before being hit by a few inches ...

saved my car and managed to get to work on time =D

***enkei2k*** · 02-19-2010, 07:26 AM

i was coming home after driving my girl home one night and i guess this evo decided to backfire, right next to me (with my windows down, this was the summertime). needless to say, i was not impressed.

MisawaJason · 02-19-2010, 07:52 AM

The reving at stoplight is getting annoying. It's happened at least 10 times in the past three weeks. Hondas, mustangs, an eclipse and a fucking jeep of all things. I just laugh though and turn up my music

Not a sports car, but a sports coupe. There is a difference. Those FWD econoboxes are typically quicker or as quick as our cars so not much sense in talking them down.

Soup Nazi · 02-19-2010, 08:21 AM

Same guy almost every day in his lifted Diesel revs it up driving past me in my apartment complex. This guy must not have a life. This truck is a huge POS.

sked707 · 02-19-2010, 08:26 AM

I get the usual rev from lame ass hondas every now and then..haha looks like everybody goes through this. its like if they all got some kind of pact to rev at any other import they see lol

D.Adams · 02-19-2010, 08:28 AM

i have a guy in a stock scion TC with big TRD racing decals going down the side of his car stalking me. I went into walmart and came out and the kid was parked next to me waiting for me to come out of the store. he wanted to race asked if my car was stock or turbo....

another guy in a riced out honda eg asked if i was going to pimp my coupe out. he went into the store and left his lambo doors up.

also i live in a verry small city only 240 here with a sr in it. i get DO YOU DRIFT every time i go to work.

Dreadedboost180 · 02-19-2010, 08:29 AM

Had this happen in my 71 nova one day but same guy later on the same night I was in my 95 240 and it happened again. I was cruising down our main drag in town when this evo pulls up next to me. He started yelling something about is my car (nova) fast and so on and says you should race my boy in the STI in front of me. I pull up just to talk to him and he says WANNA GO?!?!, as we're cruising along about 25 he revs it up & bouncing off the rev limiter and launches it pretty much and heads right for my car. I yell back some obscenities not understanding why he is doing this. Apparently its how they get you to race in cali he tells me....Twice in one night this happens to my nova and 240 lol.

kinda the same story...this loser with a black sil80,stock height and poop can exhaust always drives through my neighbor hood to get to his gf's house or probably his bf's house and every time he passes my house he hits the gas full throttle because he wants me to know how cool he is...well last night iced the cake i come home @ 1am quiet as i can be because not only do i live in Cop Land but a couple of my neighbors are Sheriffs and Police Officers and dont want any problems, i got the garage open and about to put the 240 in and this douche comes around the corner,sees me and try's to do some kind of a burnout/body roll/drift into another car thing because his car is so cool. i was hoping so hard he crashed but he didnt. dont know what to do with this jerk. my friends say make a spike strip,but i kinda wanna put a home made speed bump in "not that hes gunna scrape because he's 4x4 status" but im sure it would make him shit bricks hitting that at full throttle..............douch!

*DALAZ_68* · 02-19-2010, 08:42 AM

i think the worst situation for me is when i come back from the grocery store and theres 3 240's parked around me and 2 little shits smoking a cig tryin to strike a convo up about how Tyte my car is...or what motor im running...

needless to say i just keep walking...

murderrsirenss · 02-19-2010, 08:44 AM

dude at walmart once saw me changing my taillight bulb, and he repeatedly ask 'what kinda of body kit do you have?' I continuously replied, i dont have a body kit. Then hes leaning in looking at my motor and goes v6?

i just locked my doors and closed my hood and walked back in walmart.

EDT007 · 02-19-2010, 09:00 AM

Went to the mall once and I usually don't bring the 240 but I was really in a rush. I was literally inside for about 30 mins picking up a few things to come out to group of kids standing and smoking around my car. Hands and heads all up on/in the car. I come walking towards it w/ my girl and hit the alarm button. Siren goes off and scares the sh*t out of them. They start trying to ask me the usual questions: do i drift? What motor?. I put my Q/R on and took off. My girl was like you're not even going to answer their question. I politely said "no, I'm going to continue living my life"..LOL

homeslicej2 · 02-19-2010, 09:01 AM

I live about 300 yards away from a local high school and my 240 is plainly visible from the street. I get several high speed "fly-bys" and revving fart cans everyday. I can only think of a couple of instances when it has happened at night. Surprisingly, I've only had one kid stop by to talk about the car though. Mostly honda and truck fans around me.

SRallDay · 02-19-2010, 09:02 AM

car breaking down in the worst possible situations you can think of. getting pulled over everyday. SNIP revving at me for no reason. etc.

SRallDay · 02-19-2010, 09:08 AM

i also love how basically everyone gets rev'd at for no reason. shit actually happened to me yesterday when i was going to my friends house. some garbage ass accord. -___- so pointless.

I love asking people dumb questions like that, its so funny unless they are nice and explain.

Dreadedboost180 · 02-19-2010, 09:34 AM

Had one of my random 80+ year old neighbors come over talking about how I always look busy with my projects. First thing he says was "oh wow I didnt know these models came with 4 wheel disc brakes".....long pause....."What kind of car is this" LOL

Iron_Zenki · 02-19-2010, 09:35 AM

I am at my Girls house all the time and one of her nieghbors up the street in a hard core ricer she lives next to a stop sign and my 240 is parked out there and he always tries to take off all fast my freaken LAWN MOWER sounds better then his civic

Jakob · 02-19-2010, 09:45 AM

when i cruise around town with my windows down, just enjoy driving my car a lot of younger guys with bmws or imports overtake me like they are dominic torretto themselves...
i usually smile

when i'm hanging out and stand next to my car sometimes some random guy comes up to me and asks what type of car that is i tell them its a s14. the response i usually get is that their buddy/cousin/brother in law/loverboy has a s15 with rb26/2jz and pushin 1000whp and is a professional drifter.
