Why I left the s-chassis world and came back

Sooo... You want a cookie or something?

[KiLLeR2001]

If you want to keep the car low key, keep OEM wheels on it. Viper alarm system and a kill switch is a must. If you plan on keeping the car outside for long periods of time, put a car cover on it.

Broadfield has an awesome alarm/GPS tracking device groupbuy going on. I purchased the GPS tracking unit from him, you can use the app on your smartphone to track the location of your vehicle.

[chaddy240]

Pics of past vehicles? Sucks to hear about your bad luck. I hate thieves.

Where is the group buy? I want one with GPS tracker

[silviaks2nr]

Get an alarm with a tilt sensor and wire the ignition kill and a hood sensor while you're at it. All these stupid kids on here don't do that and then whine when their car or $3000 wheels get stolen. What did they expect?

Check through his threads. It's called "the ultimate alarm something or other" thread or some shit like that.

Couldn't agree more. Every time I see another person whose car got jacked but they didn't even have an alarm or kill switches buy they had vskf and a bunch of other shit.... O_o

[PeaceOnesxWai]

^I know! Who does that?! :duh:


Ive had a S13 since high school and thats all I know how to fix/comfortable working on. Sold my project and was going to buy a new car.. Didnt and ended up building another S13 lol

[Om1kron]

I have an alarm for my s14, it's not installed. But since the majority of all S-Chassis owners and thieves alike are fucking idiots. I simply just disable the car when it's parked, there is absolutely no way to get it to run unless you break the hood pins.

And I implore anyone to try and drive my car 20 feet from where it's parked with the engine showing. See where that gets you lol!

[driftsucky]

I've never owned an S-chassis worth stealing. But most of my cars have been too low, no steering wheel, battery disconnected, apart, etc...Not to mention in a garage. Sucks to hear about your luck bro. But, good luck with the new stuff. And yeah, let's get some pics up in cheare.

[MrMigs]

If you can afford a Ferrari or whatever, you can afford an alarm, or at least a quick release. But honestly, if a thief really wants your car, he's not going to drive it away -- he'll tow it. That's the only way friends cars have ever gone missing over here in SoCal.

So what can you do? Park it in the garage and get lojack or some chit. Don't leave it out in the ghetto for long periods of time.

That's my point.
GPS tracking device > alarm. Any day.
That way I can show up with a bat and a 12 gauge and repossess my shit.

You know I do want a cookie. Good to know the Internet douches are still alive and well.
Whatever man. Troll.
Anyway it has an alarm on it. And I wouldn't say I could afford the Ferrari. More like made some high payments and realized I am just not that type of guy to own it.
I am planning a few theft prevention methods for sure. This week it is going in the garage and my wife parks behind it every single night so I am not too concerned at the end of the day. But ya never know.
My buddy said it best. The frs and the s13 could be parked next to each other and the s13 will get taken probably every single time.

Because S13 is #1 car. FRS??? PFFFF poverty-mobile! Peasant carriage! ... S13 Silvia Woodnymph of Divine Beauty Hngggg. 11/10 would steal

[240sxcure]

How would you compare the drive characteristics, and general ownership between a s13 and the FRS?

[Midori]

The only reason why the S13 will get stolen over the FRS is because it's easy to steal an S-chassis.

If you are comparing a FRS/BRZ to a S-chassis, then you deserve to get your car stolen

ahaha yea pretty true... FRS is a mighty fine car.

What's the harm in comparing? S-chassis is not that bad a car... it almost seems as if there's been an inferiority complex going around within zilvia over the past few years. But from what I've noticed, most of the people who bash S-Chassis have really really ghetto poorly-maintained 240s.

[Reece]

Great story. Post some pictures!

Get something with a GPS tracker and a kill switch of some sort, or something.

Useless thread is useless...

It's general chat... are all posts on the forum supposed to be tech articles now or something?

Those are some pretty cool cars, man.

ahh don't fall into that trap. The only ones who get all bitter and whiney with superiority complexes tend to be kids who don't have a handle on their emotions or dudes with seriously repressed feeling something hahah. Or guys taking their anger out on others.

don't worry about it yo... or else we'll all just be a bunch of keyboard warriors waiting for an opportunity to make someone feel bad.

[dudermagee]

This thread is terrible and shouldn't exist.
XXR's homie

[240SXK]

Pics of the s14 bought off the showroom? not every day you see people that have been into these since day 1, but there sure are alot of wannabe funny gay smart asses flocking up someone else's thread.

[ClintFiske]

ALARM SYSTEM. Who wouldn't put an alarm to a car they invest their money into? or any car worth anything... for that matter. Also try keeping it in a garage, also install an alarm on your garage. That would prevent thieves as well. Of course... nothing is full-proof

So, you clicked on "Chat" and there's a list of like 20-someodd posts, but you click the one with a title written in such a way that it's obviously a story about op's experiences.

And then you enter it, and you're displeased with the content that you already knew the post would contain. So, you complain about it, inside the thread, which effectively bumps it back to the top of the list.

That's cool...

I only look at the New Posts and this was at the top.

I was hoping for an entertaining story at least, not:
I had a 240 that was stolen, but I fixed it and drifted it into a curb.
Then I bought another 240, but that was stolen.
Then I got a porsche.
Then I got a Ferrari.
Then I realized I was too poor for a Ferrari, so I got the newest trendy car, and put xxr's on it.
Now I want a 240 and I'm going to put xxr's on that too.

I hope the mods will notice it soon and lock it up.

Yep, that's what I got from it. Pretty much talking about how many super awesome cars he owned, must be a super cool dude...

[racepar1]

I am gonna guess if I hadn't mentioned the Ferrari the story would have been better. What a bunch of assholes.
Lock the thread. I could care less about visiting here anymore.

You're being more of a douche than any of the supposed "trolls". Everyone is not going to like what you have to say, get the fuck over it. You've honestly gotten way more positive responses that I would have thought.

So now you're not going to visit anymore because we hurt your feewings??? Awww, what a delicate little flower. You're suppiosed to be a 38 year old man, not a 12 year old girl...

:picardfp:

[MrMigs]

Ha ha ha. I didn't drift it into a curb moron. It got hit by a Cadillac.
I wasn't too poor for the Ferrari but I wasn't willing to sacrifice. And yep I put xxrs on the FRS cause I hated the stock rims and wheels are fucking wheels. I am not a name brand whore like the majority of the people on the scene now. I had the first sr swapped s14 in Colorado. Been around for a long time. I have NOTHING to prove. Anyone can throw money at a car. ANYONE. You aren't special.

It's all good, man. I wish I had more hands for all these face palms I'm doing over here. A guy can't talk about his cars in peace without some people getting on his case because he's not a friggen ny times best selling author or some chit lol

Ughh alright man, laters!

[drftfan]

You don't get it. I come to forums for community not so everyone can critique shit.
I shared a story. You and a few others didn't like it. But yet you felt some sort of immature need to comment on it. Which yep... Pissed me off. First real post on here in almost 8 years and the very first comment was negative.
I could care less about being a part of this community if this is the way it is now.

Honestly, this is the way it is now. And it's kinda sad... I've been here off and on since 2001, and it used to be waaaaaaaay more chill.

I am fine buddy. I appreciate your chiming with something of substance. When we get to SoCal in the next few months I am sure I will have chilled a bit.
I really had hoped to hear someone else went through something similar. Like they had 3 civics stolen and they still kept at it.

[MrMigs]

No worries man. If you ever saw the people who got on your nerves in real life, you'd probably laugh at yourself for ever getting phased by it, true story LOL.

Not so much before, but now I have a feeling this thread's going to get locked. So peace out, safe trip, and all that.
