a bit confused, are we? why 24 cars, you cant pick one and work on it?
this car shows lack of dedication. i think the best part about your car is the wheels. not to diss, but i just dont like your touch.. its not tender and doesnt get props from me.

10-28-2004, 02:05 PM
keep in mind this car was a wreck when I got it,fucked up paint an body work,stock wheels an no seats,cars been throught a big transformation from when I got it just over a month ago!

THat definately does NOT look like BR Green. I think the biggest problem is it looks too glossy. A lot of BR Green has more of a matt, or flat, look, not a high-gloss.
But, for what it WAS to what it IS, is a HUGE improvement. My hat's off to making the most of a bad situation.
1sikgti
10-28-2004, 02:54 PM
ya,its more of a german green I suppose.Maybe they added to much clear or somthing.Thanks for the props,even I know the color isnt the best,an even though I just spent $$$ on it,I am close to flat blacking the whole car.But overall its a big change from when I got the car.
Lurkable
10-28-2004, 02:58 PM
I couldn't figure out why the car looks so damn weird at first, but I guess it's just the color. Probably should've put more thought into the color... :(
Also, what's the deal with those wheels? You paint them black??

SMALL WHEELS,DUDE THEIR 17X8 AN 17X9 WITH 255' TIRES IN THE REAR,grrr! An I did put thought into the color,but apparently the person shootin it,did not.An no I did not paint work rims black,they came that way,their are actually pearl black in the sun!
your car is ugly, and a good example of the pathetic place this scene is headed.
The fact that you mention the "scene" and the fact you care about it shows how much of a ricer YOU are. It's people like you who feel like they have superiority over others that have ruined the "scene" more than anything.

I just realized how many fucking pricks there is on this website. Just because it's not JDM enough for these elitist fags doesn't mean you're a ricer. I for one think that's a beautiful car, especially the color. To me it looks like Laguna Seca Blue on the M3. What ever happened to the phrase "to each his own?" Meaning if you like something do it, don't worry about what the "scene" is doing. Much props on bringing that car back to life and good luck on the next one.

no, what probably irritates people is that he's one of these people that don't have enough skill/ambition/forucs/patience to make a really good car and isntead settles for something that he can sell to move on to the the next automotive pile of dung.

did you guys ever think maybe he just likes to fix cars? this car used to be pretty ugly and i dont think its looking that great with the paint but all that body work done by himself isnt that bad. you shouldnt be talking shit. Makotos13, do you have enough balls to buy a ugly car and make it look fine? or maybe you have no money to do it?

Why are all your posts completely worthless and prick-like?... And how worthless must your existence be if you can pull off 900+ posts in 5 months? That car looked like shit before he ended up with it, and he's trying to make it more presentable. There really isn't anything wrong with it except for the shaved body line and door handle, which he didn't do and could do nothing about. Hell, the aero is C-West/Bomex, so its JDM tYte, y0... Should be good enough, then, right?
Then again, you're the cool guy with the shift knob, so what do I know...

Thanks for stickin up for me guys,or at least saying somthing in my defense.Yes,I do enjoy fixin up cars as a hobby,an try not to take it serious(anymore).I worked with what I had an made it 10x's better then what it was,in my eyes at least.I know the color is questionable,even to myself to be honest,but I guess its just one more thing that makes the car unique.

1. Your front still looks janky as hell.
2. I dont know about the color, but everyone else can STFU, seriously. If you dont like it just say so, dont threaten to sodomize this guy or any other violent things, jeez..

Haters rejoice
It is not haters. Members with opinions.
You asked for input, opinions, haters, .. so do not complain about all the negative feedback about the car.
Post picture = Good or Bad review = member happy or member cry
The car ... well .. its not for me, its for you .. if that is what you like .. great .. I can respect the fact you have nasty taste :)
I just wont compliment you on the car, and I will say away from any advice you have to share about 240's
Shin_Kudo
10-28-2004, 06:58 PM
Honestly, I think the only real complaint to have is the paint color, and that wasn't his fault. It was supposed to be deep british racing green, like on a jag, not this bright green crap.

there are a lot of pricks everywhere in this world, only difference is here we are open about it. whereas in real life, people hide their shitty personality until they backstab you one day. might as well be happy that we're up front about it. and yes, it IS his car.. hence the reason i dont care what happens to it.

the beemer above is what I was shootin for an it came out way diffrent.If you notice in my pics,theres a shady pic of the passenger side an the car is close to the same color as that bmw,but in direct light(sun was behind me)like the shots of driver side it looks mintish,some said laguna seca ish.I have no clue what happen,I am just as unhappy as some of you are apauled,but ima have ot live with it till I put it up for sale come febuary.Should look better with some chrome vinly,orange blinkers up front an a inch lower.An to the comment of quality not quanity,would love to compare cars some day cause this car has been a challenge for me an not somthing I would typically build.

I think you did a pretty good job. Better than before and probably even better than some on this board or streets that got rainbow color cars. I wouldnt worry about it too much since you are not going to keep it. I think you would be able to sell it quick---to the "right" person that is.

Whats the full tire size? They look like 16s dunno if its the tires or if its the wheel style.

damn you painted it green... oh well. i really think it would've looked 10x hotter in white. sorry it didn't come out quite as good as you wanted.
on a more positive note, the bodykit doesn't stick out as much now that it's all the same color. not my style but i can live with it.

overall it's clean i can respect the work...
1sikgti
10-29-2004, 09:33 AM
luckily I didnt spend a grip on the paint job or ya I would be over there ranting pretty bad.I think the color is best described as watermelon green,more I look at it.Anyways,the rims look smaller then most 17" cause their a true 3piece wheel an have those rivots on the edge an my tire size is 235/45 up front an 255/40 in the rear,I think the wheel gap is killing the car more then anything,it not super bad but no wheel gap would be ten times better,an saving up for a ring,means no coilovers :(.Anyways,thanks for the replies,keep em coming if you want,I enjoy reading them!

Put the front of your car back together...... then repost. The rear looks good. I'm all about the "stock" look, as far as tail lights go on the S14, but the body work looks good. Odd color, but in a good way. Kepp it up, repost when the front is together, I want to see it.

10-29-2004, 06:14 PM
same here,I need some jdm kouki blinkers an a silvia front emblem an the side markers an a corner light(if you got any of the above for cheap,please pm me).I wanted stock tails also but wasnt able to find a trunk that was clean enough or in time for paint.I will get new pics up when the lights are complete an without direct sunlight once its out of the shop.
