Bushido

In tune with the general Zilvia zeitgeist of pointing fingers at bad ideas within our community in a blunt fashion, I find it only befitting to have a thread dedicated to the tragic examples of the S-chassis the world over.

Feel free to post images, videos, and stories of generally bad ideas pertaining to:

The transformation of style in which second,third,fourth...hand owners of the Nissan 90's coupe we all know and love, attempt to dilute and/or metamorphose the "late-twenties/early-thirties, female secretary target-market-driven design", with unscrupulous taste as well as, but not limited to, unattractive, unpleasant, hideous, unlovely, reprehensible, unsightly, nasty, frightful, awful, ghastly, vile, revolting, repellent, obnoxious, repulsive, repugnant ideas/conditions/creations/mishaps.


Cliffs: 240SX FAIL.





Without further adieu, I shall get the ball rolling:

That is fucking rad! I've thought about doing something like this with every thrashed shell I've disposed of over the years. This failure example fails itself...

While the subject of this photo is definitely fail, the car itself was rad as fuck. That's SCC magazine's "project S13" that Dave Coleman built in the late 90's-early 2000's. I'll leave it to Mr. Coleman to explain it the best:

"Adding a metal guard to your bumper around your muffler to prevent a fire means you're a ricer. Adding a metal guard to your bumper to prevent ANOTHER fire means you're a badass." -Dave Coleman

That is THE car that brought the SR swap to the "mainstream". That is THE car that pioneered the flat black look, and one of the VERY FEW that actually pulled it off as well.

Bushido

^I remember the car, and that mother fucker Dave Coleman I hold personally accountable for the infectious outbreak of shitty rattle canned flat black 240sxs.

This isn't quite fit for the rice thread as half the dickwads on this forum think a lot of this shit is cool. This is the "elitist" rice thread...

That car with the funky floral pattern on the roof that Bushido posted, isnt that from the seafoam s13 coupe that has those crazy rear fenders? Those rear fenders make me laugh every time.

That purple 240 truck thing kills me inside. That girl who used to own it let her man take a sawzilla to the rear of her hatch. Then just left it all hacked up for a "few weeks". Then after a few weeks of ridicule about how unsafe it was they decided to "let an expert weld it", which was her Man, and his first time ever welding. At that point the shell was already tweeked as they did nothing to support the frame before "cutting" (see hacking). Then about 2 months later got tired of it raining in her car every day and had her man weld in a piece of metal where the rear window went........ She told everyone she didn't need a rear window, she could just pull through everywhere.

Last I heard someone still had that thing. It is scary to think it is even on a public road.

Pretty much the definition of a "florida car".

This is essentially just like the car g35baby is talking about. The roof was torn off when it was slid into a tractor years ago. It is cut apart, just like the above car, and now has a "tube chassis" with chicken shit welds and crappy metal. The thing needs to be push started everywhere. Definition of doing it wrong.

I also saw an S13 hatch with metal welded in place of the passenger side quarter window. Totally retarded.

Looks like an RB25 to me?

Notice the valve cover...very appropriate considering it definitely looks like a 240SX inspired by Communist build standards.

I rest my case.

I bet you shop at the kiosks in the middle of the mall. lol
Wood belongs nowhere near a 240sx or any other car built since ninteen-tickety-two; This side of a Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe...

No. Not even faux/imitation/simulated plastic Shenzen-produced "Burled Walnut-look" appliqués.
