is it just me or is the soul fact i'm driving a 240 that people love to fudge around near me. Like the othe day i was cruising out of work and some guy in a firebird just comes speeding up and pulls the ebrake next to me onto a side street nearly understeering in to a fire hydrant. or random civics drivers look at me in parking lots pull their ebrake and do some kind of half-spin ass drag it gets really annoying and yes this is all the time. does this happen to anyone else?

Just recently got wheels, sideskirts and a front lip, now honda's mostly like to turn behind me into my lane suddenly when I pass and then proceed to turn on their blue headlights in broad daylight.

Yup just dumb ass teenagers wanting to race and get attention. I always get fags in hondas trying to show off next to me.

not really, i get a lot of compliments on my car though from other car enthusiasts. like a guy in taco bell today came up to me and was like "is that your RPS13 out in the parking lot? and i'm like "yea, why?" and he's like "cuz its really nice, man!"..."thanks dude!"

he drove a mustang convertible, i loved how he said "RPS13" though, i got a kick out of that.

sounds like something my little brother would say. Trying to sound like he knows WAY more about a subject that he actually does. but yeah... I too own an RPS13. No one ever compliments mine though.:cry:

This happens with modified cars often, especially ones where its questionable if you actually have shit to back it up under your hood. For intance ive had alotta civics in the past and would have alotta cars always trying to test me and see what i got. How ever when I bought an evo, almost everything else looked the other way, i miss that. Civics would cower. Only then would sti's other evos, and much higher end cars fuck with me. A 240 where there can be potentially alotta things under your hood, from stock to rb, you'll get alot more people testing you. Get an Rb and let um find out the hard way!

I think the most annoying thing is the white lancer non-evo around here that went around with 5, count it, 5 people in the car hauling ass everywhere then pulling the E-brake and "drifting".

it has an EVO spoiler, and some nice ICW 15 inch chrome rims, with a fart can of course.

Nah, but people are always like you should turbo that thing. I always tell them im saving up to. And the best thing ever is when i had my hood popped and some kid was like thats a sweet cold air intake. I guess completely missing the ic piping. I lol'd. Literally. And left.

I've only received compliments on my car. I <3 when people give me the hand gesture asking me to roll down my window for them to ask, "What year is that?" "It's a ninety-eight." and they just nod their head in satisfaction like they just solved a 1000 piece puzzle.

I remember a while back when I was driving alongside a 355 Spider and gave the guy a thumbs up. The guy replied with a smile. Same thing happened a few days ago except I was the one receiving the thumbs up. I revved up and dropped the clutch.........lol j/k. I just smiled back and kept driving as usual.

Maybe I have been messed with. I was out with my lil' bro taking pictures of our cars one evening and some Mustang driving by actually went out of his way to slow down, rev a few times, and drop the clutch...hard.

Its a 240sx. Lots of people want them, you have one. Its going to happen.

In all honesty it doesn't matter what kind of car you have, so long as there is ricers in the world, some one will want to race you/fuck around with you/sex you up.

Hmmm I dunno its always the 180 and silvia guys trying to mess with me... Its like they drift at the light im at or something, maybe its because the 4wd of the Evos so it cant drift... I just look at them and say hmm that cool... Liek this other day I was driving home and I was behind this 180 and we come up to light and we are both turning right and next thing I know hes speeding up and drifts around the center, very nicly I might add. All while hes looking at me giving me a thumbs up...

And then it breaks down.

Buy a Z, no one will fuck with you, they'll only look and stare. Especially 50+ year old men.

Some fruit cake was brighting me on the way home in his SUV, and pulling up along side me giving me thumbs up and twirling his finger trying to signal me to "spool up". I just turned off to get some gas, and cried about it.. I cried so hard my tears ran dry. I went to my mommy and told her "mom, they keep messing with me!" She said "there, there, hun.... there, there."

"wheres your shiny shit"

i get it the other way around i dd my 4 door eg and i get it sometimes in that car but most of the time i don't pay any mind until they start shifting lanes like crazy still i just keep going. It makes me want to go ahead and re slap my turbo on the civic but no. When im in my 240 i get the "oh goshers hes in a 240 so am i, lets get close and see what he has and then let off my bov at times" (usually those are the young high school kids with stickers of company's they dont even have on the car.) Most of the time its the older drivers i see and they just nod and go on there way.

Other cars it varies. Most of the time when they are doing that and revving there cars i laugh and i get in front of them and drive slow they'll either switch lanes and drive off fast because im going slow or they just move to the next lane due to the exhaust smell. lol.

LOL, I have a S13 that looks like a POS, it's my daily driver, and get guys wanting to race me all the time. I just keep cruising, cause I have a commercial license and need it for work. I really get stared down, run up on, crazy lane changes in front of me, when I'm cruising the 69 Datsun 510 with my KA conversion. Soooo tempting to show them how fast it really is. Crazy thing is I have buddies with SR20 or KA-T, pushing 325 RWHP in 510's. They tell me how fun it is to put those EVO's, SR 240's, and built honda's to shame. The guys just sink down in their seats and try to put it off as they weren't really trying, cause the got smoked by an old Datsun. Most give the thumbs up for making an oldie so fast.

Hey, now I'm 50!!! but I like the 510, Turbo Z's are nice too!! Is that so bad? I can't help I'm 50!! When you are 50 and talking about your Sr20 240sx, some kids gonna say," what did the 240sx look like, didn't it run on gasoline?" Then he'll get into his hydrogen 500 hp 1000 pound, composite car, and will flash away in the distance with no tire squeal!!

LOL, it don't stop either. Once you build one you want another one, then you pick up another for parts. I have a S13, S14, and two 69 510's, all from building one with my son as a father/son project, so he could learn how to work on cars!! The white on is his now. I hated to give it up, so I'm building one for the wife and I.

most average people i catch checkin out my car when driving are uasually laughing.

this is probably due to the fact it has no front bumper and the side markers are falling out.

and the lst time i was at the track (drag) i had everyone laughing when i was waiting in line and had me n my friends push start my car.

they soon stopped laughing after the 11.4's

hahaha... my favorite incident was sometime last spring when i was driving home from the pipeline pizza (super autobacs) meet every thursday night... the infamous MDX (yeah as in Acura MDX) the one that is lowered with n1 style exhaust and has a huge wing, i know im not the only one who has seen this THING!

I just got on the freeway and my lane had to merge into his lane, coincidentally he was next to me, i let off the gas so i could fall back and merge behind him. when i let off the gas he slowed down and lined up with me, i pressed the brakes and he fell back with me, by this time i had maybe 50ft before the lane ends. so i drop a gear and get by him.... next thing you know VROOOOOOOMMMM ricer fly-by! it put a smile on my face .... muahahahaha

my mod list at the time : tinted windows and clarion head unit.

It was the worst in the mustang, the tach would go up and the gas gauge would go down at the same time.

Fall and spring are the best times to drive with the windows down. But then the fuckers think this is an open invitation to talk. Most of the time I would have the music up but they can't hear it cause I have good speakers that I don't have to blare. Then they honk to get my attention. Ask some stupid question(that got and sr20?) and then I look for the light to change.

Best one was this douche in his Lancer with his 2 or 3 goober buddies. He honks I turn down the radio. Then goes on some ramble about SR's and drifting and shit. I roll up the window during his "question." This causes him to go into a tard rage. Which, I am sure that he used every curse word him mom taught him. Light finally changes and I drive off and get wind of his sweet sawzall muffler install.


Best thing is to keep the music up or the windows up. If they do get your attention and it's not an emergency and they are asking dumb questions. Point at your ear and do the 'I can't hear you.' Then do the 'sorry' and the 'bye' wave.

I'm lucky, my wife approves and loves driving around the finished cars. She will come home, and say, some kid just TRIED to race me. He had a slack jaw as I whizzed by him, with no loud exhaust note, just a deep motor screaming, and the cold air intake sounding like it gonna suck you in to the motor. I guess he had his rev limiter cut his car out, cause he couldn't hang with me doing 100+. I love my wife!!

I roll up the window during his "question." This causes him to go into a tard rage. Which, I am sure that he used every curse word him mom taught him. Light finally changes and I drive off and get wind of his sweet sawzall muffler install.


Best thing is to keep the music up or the windows up. If they do get your attention and it's not an emergency and they are asking dumb questions. Point at your ear and do the 'I can't hear you.' Then do the 'sorry' and the 'bye' wave.

I used to do that till my system was yanked because hondas are so easy to steal. Now im rollin cheap just in case it gets stolen again. Jensen front speakers Bazooka 6x9 in the back. Kenwood headunit. powered by Pepboys!:rawk: But really though that is the best advice not only does it make them mad, but it makes them stupid and foolish then they are full of rage and have to do something that makes them cool again so they end up crashing or getting pulled over down the street.

I'm lucky, my wife approves and loves driving around the finished cars. She will come home, and say, some kid just TRIED to race me. He had a slack jaw as I whizzed by him, with no loud exhaust note, just a deep motor screaming, and the cold air intake sounding like it gonna suck you in to the motor. I guess he had his rev limiter cut his car out, cause he couldn't hang with me doing 100+. I love my wife!!

i need a refund please.

I happen to live right by the junction of two highways, one of which is were pretty much all the street racing occurs (street racing is pretty prominent where I'm at.) So if it's late at night when I'm on the highway I get messed with a lot by hondas, camrys, and the like even though I have a busted up front end. I blame it all on my exhaust, the Buddy Club Spec II.

Hey, now I'm 50!!! but I like the 510, Turbo Z's are nice too!! Is that so bad? I can't help I'm 50!! When you are 50 and talking about your Sr20 240sx, some kids gonna say," what did the 240sx look like, didn't it run on gasoline?" Then he'll get into his hydrogen 500 hp 1000 pound, composite car, and will flash away in the distance with no tire squeal!! You be saying, "damn kids of today are missing out on building a real car!!"

Haha. No offense, but a 240Z is an man-magnet, there isn't a day where I'm driving it and I get some kind of positive comment, look, or even conversation about the car. Trust me, I've driven some crazy cars, and nothing has come close to the type of attention it gets (even from women of all ages, positive or negative) from everyone.

My favorite is from 350Z owners who just give me this strange look, I don't know whether it's confusion, jealously, or disgust, but at least it's some kind of awknowledgement.

Nice 510, they're so nice and simple, I want one some day.

This happens with modified cars often, especially ones where its questionable if you actually have shit to back it up under your hood. For intance ive had alotta civics in the past and would have alotta cars always trying to test me and see what i got. How ever when I bought an evo, almost everything else looked the other way, i miss that. Civics would cower. Only then would sti's other evos, and much higher end cars fuck with me. A 240 where there can be potentially alotta things under your hood, from stock to rb, you'll get alot more people testing you. Get an Rb and let um find out the hard way!

LOL I have a friend that Just bought an Evo a few months ago that said the same thing "I need a challenge, I got the Evo now and nobody fucks with me! I hate it!" That's gotta suck. I don't get any action out in the middle of nowhere where I live.

Not like there is much of an import scene in Wiggins, MS! <laughing> The car looks bone stock and the exhaust isn't loud. I do occasionally screw with a mustang or 350Z just to see the funny looks on their faces. I go for the sleeper look. Would love to build a late 70's to early 80's Ford Granada with about 450hp to the ground and electronic cut-outs. The Ultimate Sleeper!

The other day I had 2 girls pull up next to me in a big dodge pickup truck. I'm guessing they were probably in their senior year at one of the local athens area high schools.. a couple of rich girls.

So anyway, I hear this big loud truck rev at me at the traffic light. I'm thinking "no fking way." So I look over and see these 2 attractive young ladies looking over and smiling at me. So I nod and smile. I figured they were just wanting to say hello and then the light turned green and they gunned it.

We pull up to the next traffic light which was about 50 yards from the last one and I just look over at them laughing. They rolled the window down so I turned my music down to see what they wanted. They told me to come party with them. The unfortunate part of this story is that I was on my way to pick up a date..

By the way.. my car is not sexy, so it must've been me. :D

The real suprising thing for me was how people in 350z's were coming at me. I had one stock one stay on my tail until he finally passed me to get on a off ramp. Then I had one tail me entirely on the street, and when I tried to increase the gap in between he just keeps riding my tail. Then the guy on his passenger side starts throwing his hands up and bouncing up and down, like they've accomplished something. Yeah it must have been a challenge for them to beat my automatic s14 that is N/A lol. For as much as he probably spent on the car, I would hope it would be faster. It did have an exhaust (might have been titanium) and what looked like some sorta oem lip. I would have given him a compliment on the car had him and his passenger not been so cocky.

The coolest moment was when I had some guy in his 40's try racing me in his porsche. Also had two seperate occasions when some older guys tried showing of in their miatas. Now I got older people flexing on me it seems lol.

So far no harrassment from cops. Really with my car I took a more grown up approach. I've been into imports since 8th grade, didn't start driving on my own until I was 17, and didn't get the s14 til I was 19 I think it was. So I went through all the phases from body kits and neons to what my style is now without even owning a car then. I wouldn't say I had a ricer mentality back then cause I thought everything you did had to be clean, but kinda flashy. I'm glad I didn't get a 240 (my first car) until I reached the stage I'm at now. Now I'm kind of simple and clean.

I think thats why some of the older people have messed with me like that guy in the porsche. People take me serious even though my car is not insanely built. They expect more when its less...and some for whatever reason ask, "Is it turbo?" Yeah I know I'm speechless too lol

And a couple times I went ahead and played along knowing I had no chance but somehow my eclipse kept up with an sti on a windy road left me in the straights on his ass in the curves :) and I overtook an evo in my sil cuz he got pissed that I was able to keep up and tryed to break check me.

I wanna build a B20Vtec Eg6 and embarass all you Civic shit talkers...

Not getting messed with, but funny.

I was hanging out with a couple new guys I met through the local car forum.
"What motor is that?"
"SR20."
"Are you Japanese?"
"Yeah."
"Like, 100%?"
"Yeah."
"SWEET! WE HAVE SOMEONE 100% JDM IN OUR GROUP NOW!"
":goyou:"

I prolly would have went home after the first question....

B20 Vtec with a 60-1 would be fun. Not only embarrassing to Nissan owners who hate Hondas, it'll embarrass Detroit muscle too.

My friend had a B18C EG6 with a T4 Super T70.. The car went through A048's like breakfast cereal. Beat a nicely modded 34 GTR too...

True and true.. Although same goes for both teams..

I guarantee you if I was in a built engine, stock bodied EG6 that was on some RNR's or Desmonds some insecure S chasis owner would be staring at me and then run back to post on Zilvia how I revved on him and gave him a ricer fly by when in actuality I was just passing his ass cause his KA or stock SR swap that's running too fucking rich can't maintain a decent highway speed...

I usually pick on the V8 boys, There is a twin turbo 2007 vette near me, Roush Mustang, and a few Cobra/GT boys I love killing...... Pulled a car and half on the Vette, a car on the Roush and the Cobra's and Gt's had no chance, Like 20 cars. The 4cyl guys around me know my car and dont even attempt. Thats how you get respect, make a statement, and take no prisioners.

But I only drive my car like once a week if that, sometimes once a month.
When I cruise downtown all I get is lots of looks and thumbs up :goyou:,

I try not to race on the streets, Its too dangerous, I mostly race track only, People around me know if they wanna race we take it to the track. Its how I roll.:2f2f:

Well today I had time to put my largus front sway bar, spl tension rods, zeal coilovers and nismo power brace. I took the car out to test drive it with my buddy and he tells me to look over and 2 kids in a civic hatch are trying to race me. I was driving to a back road that had a short s turn to see what I could do now with what I put on. I see the kid follow me, I don't see him until I make it to the intersection turn around and see him pass the first corner. So I decided to flash him as I passed laughing.

I still need to put the spl front lca, rlca, tie rods, cusco ruca, spl toe rod, spl traction rod, rear largus sway bar, and aluminum bushings. Then we will have some fun. Can't wait for an autocross.

I would always just shake my head and keep driving, although sometimes i did wish that i hadnt crashed my old car so that just once they could pull that shit and i could blow out their ear drums with my wastegate

Oh now I remember, one time when I still had my s14 I was driving home from the Irvine meet. This black rsx started pacing me very aggressively. I was bored so I downshifted to 4th and left him behind about an eighth of a mile, switched on the ambers then just started cruising normal speed. He caught up, went right next to me but this time he rolled down his window and glared at me. Pissing him off was pretty fun haha.

go to wally world and buy a cheap baseball glove and throw it in the floor board next to the bat. That way the cops don't give a second look at the bat


Just get this, i use it. Its a bat/steering wheel lock. That way if a cop sees it and harasses you say its a wheel lock. Top part is steel while the handle is wrapped in a soft foam. So you can physical with comfort .:keke:

1 reason is I was running 8 inch drag slicks in the rear and I was sideways at half track on every pass. 2 I have not fully tuned the car yet. Still working out the kinks. 3 no launch control, So it was a fat dog coming out of the hole. Still cut 1.6 60's, but it was falling way off. Ill get it tuned in for next year. I have a new set of 11.5inch wide M:t drag slicks for it, new suspension setup and hopefully a new turbo to play with, My goal is 6 flat. That will put me at mid 9's 1/4 mile. But this all might be going on the back burner as my machine shop I work at is putting together a Prototype car, 2300 series motor single turbo on propane running 9 flat 1/4 miles, its going to a full street legal setup pumping some muscle put of a 4 cyl.

CAll it what you wont my friend, Im not here to impress anyone!!! You asked questions and I told you facts, SO if you wonted to know B.S get on a honda forum.:mrmeph:

Streets and tracks are two TOTALLY different ball games, You will never hook on the street like you will on the track and vice versa,

If you have ever raced at all you will know what im talking about, and if you have ever put any power at all down to the track you will know that some cars are more sensitive than others.

Not every car is setup the same nor will hook the same, Like I said before im still getting the bugs worked out. Which means its not 100%.:loco:

Well Track racing is totally different than street racing, I get traction too with my 275-40-17's on the Highway in 3rd gear but at the track the 8 inch slicks were not cutting it, every time I hit 3rd it was kicking the rear end out.
