Dumb ?s people ask about your Nissan - Page 4 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

sblack13 · 09-23-2005, 02:03 PM

i had some kids ask me when i was gasing up

"hey man does your car peel out"

and some ricer in a crx in walmart

"hey why does your car say 180sx in the back?"

And i had my hood poped (ka24e) some dumbass points to my alternator and is like "is this thing turbo man (pointing at alternator) oh yea it is" Then he pointed to my injen intake and said "man why did you get this kind of intercooler, you should've gotten one that sticks out in the front of your bumper."

Irukandji · 09-23-2005, 02:41 PM

haha never heard the alternator one before

240SeXy! · 09-23-2005, 10:14 PM

little drift event..

Dude :you can drift pretty good
Me: Nah not really, its Open Slip
Dude : Im sorry to hear its broken

wtf?

TheSnail · 09-23-2005, 10:34 PM

That reminds me of (my turbo sentra) this retarded Subway employee that crippled himself buy grabbing the turbo "is this the turbo". He could not make subs for the rest of the day. I forgot what thread I told the story in, but his retarded ass deserves to be made fun of twice.

Irukandji · 09-24-2005, 02:09 AM

"Are those 17s?"

me: "15's"

"damn those are small"

AND

"you gonna do a silvia conversion?"

**Phlip** · 09-24-2005, 11:21 AM

This thread is a concise reminder as to why I will not drive my car to "import functions" and will usually only go to the mall between 10am and 1pm on weekdays, unless I am in mom's car

trsilvias13 · 09-24-2005, 11:25 AM

All you guys do get lots of comments. I dont get that much comment anymore since I got my 97 240sx. It just stock with oem lip and s/s. lowered on kts. I keep my as stock look at possible so no one will notice. If you get dumb comments like those mention, I think cops will notice those things too. I avoid stuff like that.

lucky7 · 09-24-2005, 11:36 AM

i think its moreso, these kids think they are in the know. i stress, "think". but from reading, it appears they have no idea what they are talking about. i wouldnt worry about the cops. unless they start pulling you over and asking if your gonna swap an SR or if you drift, or how much your silvia conversion cost you. this thread is getting me prepped for when my car is road worthy.

ai_jo · 09-24-2005, 12:46 PM

local nissan dealer.

me: i want to set up an appointment.
service tech: what car do you drive?
me: 1995 240sx
service tech: umm, what's the manufacturer of your car?
me: ummmm....nissan.
service tech: uh...ok. (at that point she's trying not to feel stupid)

hahahaha samething happened to me when i wanted to buy an oem oil filter....

codyace · 09-25-2005, 04:45 AM

I get the 'nice conversion' on my bone stock 97 kouki all the time...

***FaLKoN240*** · 07-19-2006, 10:54 AM

Thought I'd revive this again. 240s are more popular.

Newest one I get is

"How come your wheels NEVER MATCH?!"

bik · 07-19-2006, 11:03 AM

I always get asked "where is your silvia" and always response "i drive a 240sx"

also always get 1000 diferente stupid questions with the s14 front end =P the most popular is "you import that front end fron japan"

beating many "fast cars" around with only my I/H/E been asked... wait not asked... they asume!!! "bah that is a fast V6" LOL or they also asume i have turbo O_o

JVD · 07-19-2006, 11:18 AM

None for me, but my brother told me when he was driving my S14(auto) some kids came up to him at a light.

Kid:Is that a 240?
Bro:Yeah.
Kid: Drift it!
Bro: WTF? *rolls up window*

Not only that he was on a main road that is completely straight and right next to a cop station. Not that it even mattered because it was a stock auto S14 with suspension and wheels.

vspec15 · 07-19-2006, 11:24 AM

Guy asking about my 1997 240sx se (not all at the same time)

Guy- "Where did you get that front end?"
Me- "It's the stock front end."

Guy-"Oh, you got a 6 cylinder in there, huh coz it's a silvia?"
Me-"No, it's a 240sx and it has a 4 cylinder."
(Guy has confused look and ponders what the difference is between a silvia and 240sx)
(Me thinking to myself, you dumb ass, silvia's come with a 4 cylinder also!)

Guy- "When you gonna drop in the SR20?"
Me- "Never. I'm keeping it legal."

Guy- "Why don't you do the S15 conversion?"
Me- "If I wanted to do the S15 conversion, do you really think i would have gotten a kouki?"

BillKlineVT · 07-19-2006, 11:35 AM

haha, this thread is great... I got sick of answering said questions so I made a sticker to answer them. I'm not gonna keep it on for long, but I got bored one day and figured it'd be funny...

'90RPS13 · 07-19-2006, 11:38 AM

I was talking to a guy at a kegger one night. I was feeling like pure shit. Had a sinus infection and a ear infection. I get really agitated when sick. I was just chilling talking to a few girls and this putz comes up to me:

him: so I hear you have a 240sx
me: yeah, I have a '90 Coupe
him: do you drift?
me: umm....no
him: you going to put a SR in it?
me: no, I am going KAE-T
him: Whats E for? you should put a SR in it
me: Why?
him: it is made for drifting...
me: Why do that when I can turbo my KA and for the price of the swap and be in the range I want for horsepower? and then if I manage to blow it up, I can afford a new engine instead of having down time.
him: true.
me: yes sir.
him: my buddy has a 300zx, it has rims, Nissan Brakes, exhaust and big wing.....
me: (Very Sarcastically) Nissan Brakes?
him: they are huge!!!
me: (Again, Very Sarcastically) Bro, it comes with Nissan Brakes. Do you own a car?
him: Yes, I own a Cavalier.
me: :walked away:

Swear, its a true story. I cant stand people who know absolutely dick about something and think they know everything. I get shit about selling my Silvia Front and putting on a 91+ front bumper? They are like, "Why did you do that? It would look so much better". Its my car bitch, STFU. :end rant:

I say we donate all the Ricer's to a Space Program where they send them to space with no intentions of returning. *a

*EDIT*

BILLKLINEVT: I will Paypal you right now for a couple stickers man. Seriously, I want one. *a

CaoBoY · 07-19-2006, 11:46 AM

as im pulling my stock sohc for a rebuild...

guy:hey....you swapping your motor?
me: yeah.
guy:srrrrrR?
me:no, i want to put something that would actually give me more power than an sr20.
guy:rB!?!?!
me: no. 1jzgte.
guy:huh? why not an rb?
Me:because its heavy, and its slow.
guy:but a 1jz is a supra engine right?
me:yeah...
guy: it wont fit, its a toyota!
me: GET THE FUCK OUTTA MY GARAGE RETARD!
guy:.............walks away, and never comes back.

its fun to make up stories when you are doing something simple like rebuilding your motor. heheh

ramblux · 07-19-2006, 01:35 PM

The ones that stick out in my mind:

"Dude, can you drift your car for me real quick?" This was in a crowded Circuit City parking lot, asked by an employee of CC. As I get in my car to leave, he yells at the guys in the installation bay, "Hey, this guy's gonna DRIFT!!!" haha, no

"Why are your tires blue?" Asked at a gas station after a drift event.

Irukandji · 07-19-2006, 02:26 PM

recent questions:

"you drift this thing?"

audi guy: "swap? stock motor?"
me: "stock"
audi guy" Oh..."

miucus · 07-19-2006, 02:43 PM

"is your car broken? because i hear some clunking coming from the back"

and ive tried many times to tell them what it is but they still dont understand

dizastaman · 07-19-2006, 02:54 PM

i get the usual "do you drift?" sometimes they skip that part and just ask where i drift, and i say i dont and then they ask why i even have the car. ive been asked tree times if that was a big radiator or an intercooler. and just about every day i get asked "hey is that a s13 or 240". i constantly get "HEY!,blow it off". i guess talking about BOV.(another reason to resirc.)

topsecretgold · 07-19-2006, 03:29 PM

i own a kouki s14 k's aero conversion...i stopped off at my bro's work a few weeks ago and a cop was walking by me and asked...is this your honda?? So i just paused and then, to keep the conversation to a minimum, said "YES"

RiversideS13 · 07-19-2006, 03:56 PM

" when are you going to get rid of your integra?" - from my dear girlfriend

i had a white S13 coupe

Omarius Maximus · 07-19-2006, 04:12 PM

They keep mistaking my car for a Mazda MX-6, its really freaking agitating.

boosteds13 · 07-19-2006, 04:28 PM

"WTF is a CA18?"

ONYX S-13 · 07-19-2006, 05:36 PM

Me: *Putting in my corbeau's*
Ricer gang: "what are you doing?"
Me: .......
Ricer gang:...."WHAT ARE YOU DOING"?
Me: Putting in new seats (as i take out stock one and put in new one)
Ricer gang : You race
Me : I'd like to but don't have the cash or time
Ricer gang: ?!!??!!?
Ricer gang: Oh I C.. So how fasts this thing in the 1/4 mile?
Me: I don't drag race.. I like road racing
Ricer gang: !?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? How much does it cost to race on the road?
Me: *thinking to myself* STEP AWAY FROM MY GARAGE/CAR/ME !!
Me: *shakes head*
Ricer gang: *Stares at engine bay*
Ricer gang: This a 6 cyl.
Me: NO!
Ricer gang: !?!?! *Leaves*

trsilvias13 · 07-19-2006, 05:52 PM

my 97 240sx was thought to be a jdm integra conversion before when I was park out dt in san jose. I was laughing to myself while this guy try to impress a girl. I should have said something, but didnt wnat to be a hater.

cisco240 · 07-19-2006, 06:41 PM

Same ol same ol:
-You drift that thing?
-When you gonna put an SR20 in it?
-Is that an SR20 (pointing at the KA-T)?
-How fast is it?
-How much hp?
-Can you beat a V-8?
-What is that thing (make &/or model, 240SX badge is off, Nissan badge still on it

) ? I even had this asked at a Nissan dealership by some employees

-Oh, & once at a NOPI show, somebody pointed at the intake filter and asked if THAT was the turbo
