Why is it so dead here :( - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Saikano17 · 02-04-2018, 04:48 AM

What's good Zilvia. I just moved from California with a 240. Last post was almost half a year ago... is 240 scene not there? I'm from 425 area. Let me know if anyone is alive out here. I would love to make some new 240 friends.

Unfortunately the larger percentage of car people moved off forums and onto social media. Which is good for us nerds, because it weeds out 90% of the potatoes.

No 240s in California huh.. must have been a grueling search.

Saikano17 · 02-04-2018, 02:33 PM

I don't use any social media but I did try looking for a Facebook page but I had no luck. It's a great state to drive a 240 around

Nah there are so many 240s in California. Most among the states, if anything. I see a lot of sales post and stuff but can't find any meets or events.

Probably the worst state to have a 240 in. Any mod you do to your car is illegal. Have fun.

HAHA if the car is 25 years or older, smog isn't required. Bruh it's way better than California when it comes to modding. Hell yeah I'll have fun

crest · 02-07-2018, 03:51 AM

Yeah I agree, i just signed up. Don't like using FB that much but where are the people on here??

Only if you register as a classic, I’m confused so you moved to California now or out? Cause trust.. we are here. Fuck the Cali haters on here, we mod shit just like anyone else just gotta know the ways around it.

I understand that you can't daily drive as a classic but like you said, there are always ways around it. California has the most strict emmision law from my perspective but has one of the most modded cars within USA I'm sure. I'm in Washington now. Are you in Washington too?

I'm in CA now, with a ca18DET in my 240 vert.

NO emission gear and no tags on the horizon.... unless someone can tell me how to get some of those work-arounds going

go to car meets and find some new friends. its pretty easy to find someone who will help, the cost though might now be "cheap"

johnnie330 · 01-26-2019, 11:54 PM

I am a fellow 240 owner as well, haven’t really seen that many down here maybe 5 in the last year.

Come hang out at Evergreen Speedway during a bit event like DriftCon or NissanFest.

smoked240 · 01-30-2019, 02:17 AM

I live in North Dakota and you might see 1 or 2 240s every 150 miles haha. Maybe more now, I suppose. I've always used zilvia since I bought my s13 in 2009.

Ever since the demise of Northwestnissans (forum), the 240 scene in the PNW has gone to shit. There are small pockets of enthusiasts, but there isn't any large community anymore. I moved to AZ from Oregon, and it's a million times better here than it was in the PNW.

*e1_griego* · 03-14-2019, 11:37 AM

NWN dying was a symptom, not a cause.

*2_Liter_Turbo* · 03-14-2019, 11:44 AM

Very true, but it was still around that time. It was an early symptom. LOL

Speaking of NWN, NissanFest is April 13th. Hope you guys can come out.
