Ok, thought I would see what's everyones purpose is on here on what you plan to do with your s13 s14 or s15, (s15 riiight).... Like if you want to be a real drifter for competition events or just want to be good around your neighborhood in front of a few homies? Some have some nice cars that are show quality so I don't think many are tearing it up at their local mountain! Or some buy Ebay parts that will work and some have super overseas long lost mystical jdm part that will cost fat cash!!, is that for show or is that part really going to make a difference for most people's skill ability to be able to determine anyways? for example your car is bone stock but you spent $500.00 plus shipping on a strutbar from japan that came out of a concept nismo vehicle that was never driven!
I've only had my s14 for about 5 months but I kinda want a semi show car but drift ready if I need to with all the parts you need for drifting, but some of the name brand stuff I can pass on but if I ever got rich I'm sure for fun I would get all the top stuff deep in the vaults of Nismo's basement!!. As you all know it's not easy to find these cars in the first place, so im not eager to hit some trees and buy ductape no time soon. :D

My goal is to have the car mainly as a friday-sunday car to take to shows but also cruising and events. I like to have power and style got to have them both.

Drift, track and show. I used to drive it daily but it attracts thieves. I only drive it during weekends now though and go to a nearby small canyon. It has some battle scars and duct tape :D

usually those people who drift alot either try to keep there car clean, or they drift less and stylize the car more. If you're into show, this is not the car for you, you could spend $$$ on parts and no one would even notice the difference. Such as your headlamps, who would know or care about them. they are just lights. just think about your ending goal for your car, and the most comfortable and least stressful way of getting there.

I guess I want a mainly stock looking car that's got a nice clean body, and rims, that's track ready for drift or grip also, I like to canyon run. I’m shooting for around 225 rwhp on a KA or SR (doesn’t matter to me anymore) with a really good all around suspension setup, nice rims, and a simple new black paint job. I have no real aspirations of being a drifter/racer/ricer I just want a fun to drive 240 that I can go to the track with and have a good time. So really I want it all except show. Oh, and I could care less about drag racing my car, or any car for that matter.

Drift. Making it look nice is cool, but im realistic. Im bound to crash sometimes, and i've already hit a few things (boulders, curbs). I figure, y make my car look nice when im still learning the ropes? MAYBE when i get a little better, i'll devote some cash into looks, but as for now, straight drift in my daily driver. And im a cheap ass.

I use my 240sx as a transport for Diplomatic Rufugees. I can drive it to any country cause it's got mad drift skills yo'. I just hit the beach doin about 130mph and then crank the wheel and pull the E-brake, slide right over the water to the next country. It's got some mods done too, so I go Show with it every now and then. The rocket launchers in the pop-up lights are awesome. No carpet queen with strobe lights is gonna beat me and my HED headlights (High Explosive Discharge). I parked next to Dousan at the last show, Bad idea. His 5000 watt stereo system blew my bulletproof windows out. Asshole, I'll get you for that!

why is your car gutted with no sound deadening? is it to look more hardcore or does it serve a function purpose such as drifting faster?...

Damm! Is everyone on here 16 years old with nothing else to do except talk shit? I like my front bumper plus it came with the car and I have nothing to hide! By the way I don't see your car......is it that bad?? instead of displaying your car with some pride you instead have a big ass swirling banner. But if you just can't afford a digital camara I'll let you slide this time.
ThatGuy
05-05-2005, 03:24 PM
Hahaha, now who's acting 16 kid? I stated my opinion on your bumper. It's hideous! My car can be found in numerous places on this website. Picture Thread, Members Rides, etc., etc. i have nothing to hide. It's got no body kit, and it's mostly primered. But it's my car, so I don't give a damn what you think about it, just like you shouldn't give a damn about what I think of yours. Read my signature again. "If it's justified, learn from it." :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
And just to make this a little worse for you. You need to change your signature, those images are too large. Max limit on signatures is 400x200, your images combined are 500x187. Change it or it will be deleted. Have a nice day kid.

Tadaah! what you thought I would cry about my sig being to big? And I didn't know things were going bad for me! you just don't like my bumper Whoopaadeeedooo!!! Remember if it's ignorant just smile and that's what I do after reading your post :D But as far as intelligence goes you can look at all my post I've never talked shit about someone or their car just for the hell of it/or for fun or what ever you reason is?? unless they said something first! and I'm pretty sure that's what almost all of your post counts consist of is just bashing people out of the blue with your opinion which nobody really wants to hear exept you.
I'm done waisting my finger pressure on this so get your last whatever in and go make your self a bowl of Trix.
ThatGuy
05-05-2005, 04:46 PM
MmmMmm Trix sounds pretty good. :rofl: Now what I think is you made a dumb thread about what people use their cars for instead of just reading around and actually learning for yourself. You wanted to show off your "Semi-Show drift ready car". Showcars are a waste, that's the general opinion on Zilvia not just mine. You got upset cause I said your bumper looks like smashed assholes. That's your problem not mine. Then you comment about me not showing my car off in my signature? Why would I want to show off my car? I didn't buy a car for the masses, I bought a car for myself. Who cares what anyone else thinks of it. I don;t need to show off to feel good about my car. You on the other hand appear starved for attention. So now you're getting it. The big, mean Moderator is picking on you, OH NOES!! Calm down, stop trying to act tough, and go drive your car.

ya know, i wasn't gonna say anything but after a quick cat nap i decided you needed a talking to. right off the bat you ASSume that Thatguy gives a remote crap that you care what he thinks. he's a MOD in case it wasn't obvious and his job is to enforce the rules. you breached the contract you agreed to, thus, provoking him.
now, i AM a butthole. in fact, its quite well known. there is even a small militia of people that feel i am a problem here on zilvia. i'm fine with that, what i'm not fine with is retards like you walking in here and expecting people to give you a rim job based on the fact that you stuck some queer bumper on your car.
kid, you really dont want any of this because you're right we aren't at your level. the hubble telescope can't close the visual gap between your loley occupation and our level.
walk on home boy, you're done here.

you're right. barry isn't my friend, i just jack off to the thought of pleasing all the zilvia mods. i get almost as excited as you do when you see your "C west one a very good japanese company" bumper. quit pitching a tent over a fuggin bumper and whining when someone makes fun of it.
Oh and I like your ummmmmmmmmmmmm oh after looking never mind.
my what? my car that you obviously don't like yet dont have the balls to say. unlike you i like stock bodied 240's, they're fuggin sex, and if you dont like it thats cool. see? i dont mind you displaying your lack of testicular fortitude by trying to rip on a car that's clearly better than yours.
its perfectly fine.

To answer the question initially presented: Daily (sometimes spirited) driver, weekend autocross and there is nowhere to drift in NC, seeing as how doing that on the street is STUPIDER than stupid in my very objective opinion...
To address the bullshit:
I bought the car with the bumper on it and it's a C west one a very good japanese company
... because everyone KNOWS that you need top-quality Japanese shit, especially if you might consider using it for drifting, or at least want your car to be "drift ready." It appears me that what has taken place here is that someone has placed themselves into position to be criticized by other members, all while at the same time taking personal offense to the opinion stated and now will go at anyone who expresses that opinion, even if one of those individuals has the ultimate power to break up the bullshit and/or reprimand them further than a little signature warning.
... and in closing:
wow, just fucking wow
