pretty close isnt it? and thats just 2 random pictures. Imagine if we tried searching. Nice try but 240s are like the new hondas mostly everything has been done.With all do respect anyone with a credit card can make a 240 look like that with the same EXACT mods.

*burnsauto* · 06-19-2009, 11:37 PM

nice car

too bad its in a thread full of fail.

your image of them may have been compromised because of some lame ass cars stateside running CST/battles. In my (humble) opinion a classic design like that will never become "played out".

forgive me if i am wrong but there is an S13 with sportmaxes in your avatar, i think CSTs are roughly one thousand percent cooler than any sportmaxes will ever be.

all i'm saying is the car deserves better wheels. something different. IMO a car with those wheels and nothing particularly unique about it doesn't deserve it's own thread.

yeah, sportmaxes till i go 5-lug next week and put my gramlights on. but what does this have to do with me?

kouki style oem 180sx has cookie cutter

uras kitted s chassis are cookie cutter

you cannot find a cars let alone a car 90% sharing the same shit with his s14 so therefor it is not cookie cutter

show me another car executed like his, you can't so just shut up.

work makes XD7's which have a thicker spoke... but its pretty much the same design. so I can see how you got those two confused.

Advan T7 --> Work XD7 --> CST / MB Battles

there used to be many copies of the T7 way back in the usa

american import scene loved to copy advan wheels

Car is dope.
I personally do not like the look of the Battles. An aggressive aero'd car like that needs some lip son.

no doubt its an awesomefucktastic car. may be different in the owners choice of aero, paint, engine mods, etc. but whats really different? the brand name of parts. at a glance, aside from color, these three s14s are identical. cookie cutter prolly isnt the right word, but its definately not unique. no 240 is unique anymore.

for instance, i found pics of THE SAME EXACT FUCKING SETUP as mine. down to the wheel choice and color. then i was like fuuuuhh k.

owner/builder::::im still jockin, but im just sayin.

icedsole · 06-20-2009, 03:16 AM

the red car is overall well put together and everything goes together really well.
and it appears to have stock fenders which is cool too!

looks good

*revat619* · 06-20-2009, 03:24 AM

I think the car looks great. It's nothing unique, but its not beat to shit like most kitted S14s i see on here so that puts it on another level. Plus its red and i'm biased.

As far as the wheels are concerned, the whole "not that tight" and "its cookie cutter" comments are stupid.

How many people on here have vs-kfs? equips? cr-kais? sportmaxes? Rotas p45rs? Think about it.....I'll wait.

yeah...exactly. STFU.

DreamN · 06-20-2009, 03:43 AM

That's a great looking car. Not my style, but great looking nonetheless.

GSXRJJordan · 06-20-2009, 04:46 AM

I dig it. I think the CST's/MB's are a good looking wheel, and the concave face does look good in person...

... but I'll take my 5" front and 6" rear lips

I think that kouki S14's with JDM and Uras kits are kinda played out (which is why I kept mine Zenki, btw), but that's not to say they don't still look bomb.

get over yourself. what makes this car different from most cars on this forum.

like i said anyone with a credit card can do the exact same thing.

but oh shit! that cars air fresher is a limited edition smell, who cares. Its all old news.

zugoi · 06-20-2009, 05:07 AM

I just found this picture on google in literally 4 seconds by typing in "240sx" i know the wheel fitment isnt great. The hood isnt the same and spoiler and you cant see a front mount intercooler but how else does it Look any different?

Lemme guess your probably thinking oh the body kit aint the same and it aint got intercooler, its a stock engine so it aint the same, but your red one is another modded sr. Well fuck Blu808's got a turbocharged ls in his car so i guess the car you got ur dick on got faded cuz it aint the shit you think it is

So basically, you found a same-generation car, with a body kit. It's pretty different, broseph. Wheels/engine/kit/hood/color, that's a lot.

smelly240 · 06-20-2009, 05:30 AM

MB is just a company that buys wheels from other companies and sells them... they dont MAKE anything.

just like if u buy a set of MB Weapons - they still have A-Tech in the casting. Since they're A-Tech Erasers.

They buy wheels in bulk - chuck a centercap at it and sell it cheap.

Either way - NONE of those S14's look like the red one.

If you think that u need glasses. They are all koukis with battles/cst's - They all have different aero etc. None of them are the same color, have the same aero, hood, wing.

IN THAT CASE ALL S14 LOOK THE SAME

and for the record...

You just answered your own fucking question.

Nobody is saying the red car is super unique. What's cool about the red car is the execution. It was done right. The ride height is on point, the wheel fitment is good, the kit fits spot on, its got nice paint, etc. In a forum filled with ebay built, multi-colored, ziptie ridden POS's this car is a rare gem. No 240sx is unique anymore if you wanna get technical.

In other words, your opinion sucks. GTFO.

ahh i understood it the wrong way... either way they are the same fucking wheels...

i really hope they bring these wheels over under the MB name and sell them for 150 a wheel.. shit... maybe 200 a wheel for these in the right sizes and offsets.

you guys are dumb. it's always easier to nitpick at STUPID SHIT when you don't pay to build a car. car looks good. end of story.

lucky7 · 06-20-2009, 09:14 AM

those wheels looks super cheap to me. they ruin the entire car IMO. and if its not common knowledge, i hate aftermarket kits. they ALL look exactly the same to me.

these cars (S14's):

this (girls car btw):

and this:

they ALL look the same to me.

maybe its because i "live in a cornfield", but whatever. that all being said, i agree with the "cookie cutter" comment. you spend enough time on this site and you will quickly realize that the red car, is NOT unique. even if it doesnt have an identicle parts list to another car. it just looks the same.. blends in with the rest of the crap.

engine bay shots?? thats pretty much the only thing i care about on MY car even these days. lol. now i'll wait to get flamed to death. i know some things never change.

Bushido · 06-20-2009, 09:19 AM

s14's should never run 17's.

*burnsauto* · 06-20-2009, 09:28 AM

If you build a car to stand out, you're building a car for the wrong reasons. That whole concept always reminded me of that "rebel phase" everyone goes through in middle school...where you try so hard to be different, but end up looking just like everyone else who's trying to be different.. its just silly.

Personally, I don't really like to compare cars, I try and give my attention and respect to each one I look at, rather than worrying what the other person parked next to them may have done. I just look at how well things are executed, the craftsmanship, and quality. Things like that are far more important to me rather than what it looks like compared to all the other S chassis I see.

It should've been block sanded, but its not a show car. Again, its a nice...clean, car.

Lies

I wasn't going to get into this....but I basically hate all of the kits they make for S14s....except I love the GP Sports Type 1 kit for kouki S14s, you just can't find the whole thing.

That being said I like the red S14's kit better then some of the other ones...but yeah fairly cookie cutter. I still think the car looks pretty good though.

Yulaw · 06-20-2009, 10:40 AM

I've seen the car in person at a drift event and it's one sick S14. His paint and vinyl combination reminds me of taniguchi's S15 which is probably the look he was going for.
