Yes, those ARE Eagle Alloys. Thank you for noticing. ;-D


Both myself and my car have changed alot since this pic was taken. Good times, bad times, we both had our share. I like looking at older pics of my car to see how it changed.

Anyone else have old pics of their cars?

Oh, and pay no attention to the doofy guy on the right.. it's not me. Honest. Seriously, I don't look that goofy! *hides*

Dont have a pic of my first 240 although I could scan one. Here is a pic of my Z. Yes those are Chrome rims, I bought it like that. Anyways I was 17, and the bitchs loooved em. lol. So did the cops. Thats why my insurance is 200$ a month now.

Ah yes, I must show this pic. This was taken in November 2002 (yea LOOONG ago, hehe, sarcasm) after I got my 240sx and was in the process of selling my 240z. It's all about the RWD Nissans at my house, hehe. The Z32 is my dad's, S14 and S30 are (was) mine.

haha, thats the good side. on the other side the front fender is smashed, and sidemarker broken to pieces (recently replaced). theres also a medium dent in that door (cant see it) and a nice one near the tail light (among other small dents and scratches). it looks good from far, but up close its far from good. thanks though.;)

now: more tire, less tape! And no hubcaps.

I'm going to do a spoilerectomy tonight... and add more tape!

It all started with 17x7 +40 something offset and no knowledge of what offset was.
http://pic6.picturetrail.com/VOL169/1056474/1979825/25421562.jpg

Then I moved up to 17x8 wheels with a +35 offset.
http://pic6.picturetrail.com/VOL169/1056474/1979825/23719014.jpg

I then got tint and had some poly bushings pressed in. I swear the bushings made my car lower. The one with the new bushings is the bottom one.

I also moved the 240SX emblem for umm...better performance... and stuff.;)
