How indecisive are you about your car?
Like as in you keep changing parts?
Front bumper: R33->Zeal->Friends Wheels: 5zigen Typhoons->5zigen FN01R-C Suspension: Eibach/Koni->Gonna upgrade to coilovers probely buddy club Spoiler: R33->to no spoiler Exhaust: 5zigen Fireball->Trust DD And on and on I need to make up my mind Last edited by NiteKids; 08-14-2003 at 01:34 PM.. |

VERY! I just bought a few SWEET SSR 15" wheels for my car. Then a couple days ago Dousan and I met up, and I saw 17's on his car. Our cars are pretty much twins, and it looked CRAZY with the tuck. I will go 17's now. Sigh...

I honestly dont think its about doing it right the frist time or anything like that. I love they way my car looks, dont get me wrong. However, there are just SOOOOO many other good looks for our cars. This range from all those crazy body kits in japan (just look at a drift magazine never even heard of the crazy ****) to wheels, to pretty much anything lese you can think of. I like variation. Its nice having a sweet car, but the look can and does get old. Especially when using aftermarket items. But i dont know, im just rambling.

thats a good thing though.. cause look how nice your car looks now. the only thing that messes up all your positive changes is the R33 to Zeal bumper transition.. |

im indecisive about what car to get. I have been trying to decide since I was 13.
originally, I wanted a impreza 2.5rs that I would turbo. the my plans proceeded to - TII S5 rx7 gt4 celica mk4 supra crx eg hatch ek hatch 240sx 2g fwd turbo DSM 1g AWD DSM 240sx E30 BMW FD rx7 Audi Quattro (old ones, 5 cylli engine) TII again integra 1g awd DSM again and now Im back to... S13!!! every car up there I joined a forum or 2 for and usually did ALOT of research on each one. most of them I even made mod plans, taking into account all kinds of stuff. been on the s13 for about 6 months now, so I think I'll stay there. |

indecisive? naw. picky? oh ya
my problem mainly stems from the fact that my second 240 was the one of the lowest mileage cars on the west coast if not the whole country. It was clean and it was on its way to becoming exactly what I wanted. It got totalled by a hit and run driver when it was parked. Since then I have been going thru cars trying to find one of the same caliber . Needless to say after buying one and selling another and so forth I may have found the car. Thats all I can say at the moment I do not want to spook the deal. P.S. if your wondering about my second car look down to my sig. its listed their. Whats not listed was the 5 lug swap ,Kouki tails , stage 1 suspension and on of the fastest stock NA 91 KA 's around which was actually going to be pulled for a SR replacement. Ya SR instead of KA T but in the words of T.Y. do what is the most economical for more HP.

i was indecisive before i got the car (found out the big deal about the S-chassis like 3 yrs ago, since then have also looked at S5 FC TII, MkII MR2 turbo, Porsche 944 turbo, turbo 1.8 Miata, 1G AWD DSM, Audi Quattro Coupe (early-90s, old-school urQuattros are HARD to find), etc.), but now, i'm too broke to afford anything, so I can't really be indecisive about nothing :hammer:

I dont know what the hell to do with my car. My plans always change...
go ka-t or sr build the car for track or just plain speed and hp go 5 lug or not (this is a really tough one, cuz i like the way my car looks with my rims) what brands to go with when upgrading OR sell it and go S13 What would be nice is more money so i can have both s13 and s14 |

Not knowing what to do with the car seems to go hand and hand with not knowing what you want out of life in a way...
Some people have the pleasure of knowing what they want but constantsly change their mind on how they will get there...others just have no clue. It's a good think I'm broke because I have no clue. I can get an idea, create a plan, document and detail a plan all the way through, decide on every single part and then decide I no longer like my idea and start over again  |

1) since you are too lazy to use the search function.. Exhaust: Tanabe GPower Medallion Muffler shop special (HKS piping with a dual tip muffler) Apex N-1 Single Greddy MX Greddy DD 5zigen fireball courtesy of the constant harassment of nitekids asking me to trade my DD and finally i got the exhaust i wanted. HKS dual drager. CD players: Pioneer Premier P900R Alpine 7850 Alpine 7863 Pioneer DEH-P6300 Kenwood KDC-205 Eclipse CD5443 Alpine 7839 Pioneer Premier DEX-P1R Wheels: stock Racing hart Tuners chrome stock wheels R32 GTR wheels Z33 18" wheels (not volks). Interiors: Changed to 95 SE Leather then to 97 Nissan Silvia K's then to 1998 SE then to 1998 Base model. (this included seats and door panels, reason i did it is becuase the condition of interiors were better, less blemishes). Bumper: stock 96-97 oem lip VIS lip then to another stock 97-98 bumper then to kouki 98 bumper. and hell, even shift knobs: Nismo Leather Momo Race Leather. Razo aluminum Razo weighted back to Nismo Leather and got the Nismo GT when it came out.. 2) yep. then I sold my car. you can sim for exactly what you want. but then there would be something else new that might appear to totally alter your plans 3) yes, I'm very indecisive. For example I couldn't make up my mind on which pole or light post to hit when I was at DD7. The one on the left? or right? Last edited by Grant; 08-15-2003 at 08:33 AM.. |

I'm not so indecisive with parts, but with cars I am
I have tried many many many parts though, just with different cars. Here is my list o 240's, parts would take to long.89 240 Hatchback 93 300ZX 2+2 91 240 Hatchback 96 240 KA-T 89 240 Coupe 91 Hatchback Id have a sweet car if I had been smart and kept most of my parts off a few of these cars O well. I've decided 91 Hatch is the best, so this time around I'm sticking with it |

Half a year ago I was defintely too indecisive and easily tempted to buy things I end up regretting for my '92 fastback. But now I know exactly what I want, just don't have money...
Things I regret buying: -s15 front end Should had used that money for a sr20. -'93 MX-6 Should had also used that money for a sr20. -AE85 Slow and handled like a shopping cart. But it was fun while it lasted. I'll say it again, should had used that money for a sr20. -'95 240sx Damn, wish it was stick. But the price was just too good to refuse. Sr20! Sr20! S20! |

I was pretty indecisive about what to replace the 240 with. Then about whether to replace or supplement it. I still am not sure whether I really can live with getting rid of it. But keeping it will cost a lot of money
This Celly is growing on me. Maybe it will make things easier. Other than that, once I have a car, I can't afford to be indecisive... so I usually end up with a lot of mental masturbation and not doing anything at all to it...
