lil240sx95 · 08-13-2007, 11:43 AM

now before you flame me about my volkswagon believe me I DID NOT CHOOSE my dad got it for free and he fixed it and gave it to me...

before this I had a 94 240 tranny got messed up and so my dad gave me ^^ (it did have a kickass sound system though) Then I got my s14
what sucks is that i crashed it right when i came back from cancun, my welcome back but i see it as a blessing as well

Akiros · 08-13-2007, 11:59 AM

240 got crashed into, sold it for 1k, and bought a GTO. car insurance/car payments suck! especially at 19 years old. haha.

lol I know what you mean. The payments and insurance suck on the Evo too. Maintanence costs suck fat balls also. lol. I dont think I'll ever buy a brand new car ever again.

PANGES · 08-15-2007, 04:28 PM

How much are you guys paying for your S13's? lol. It seems so hard to find a decent one.

steve shadows · 08-15-2007, 04:48 PM

I should switch to EG's and race hondas ^ everything is super cheap

lol

Mad skills

Revolver Ocelot · 08-15-2007, 06:34 PM

Sold my S14 and bought my Evo IX. Couldnt be happier, have a car with decent power and i really dont have to worry about something falling off or that random rattle. Maintainance on the IX isnt bad, i did all my own work on the s14, gonna do the same for the evo.

Might pick up an s13 coupe as a track toy someday. Oh and evo wheel offsets SUCK BIG DONKEY BALLS!!!!!!

xtreme_s14 · 08-15-2007, 07:12 PM

hmmm.. i'm thinking of selling my S14 for an EVO! i need something i can take snowboarding! ..and later down the line have a S13 fastback on the side for track/daily driving! how much is insurance for an EVO?

ZooMxxl · 08-15-2007, 08:34 PM

90 hatch...MANY times thought about selling it for an s14 bcuz I wanted a roomier car.

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2191710

but then I kept it and bought a black '00 range rover hse. All the room I could ever need, easily tows broken down cars around on a trailer, and best of all is I can take it snowboarding. Lovin both my cars!

I'm glad I did not sell the 240. My friend(owns 2 starions) always made me try to picture someone else driving that car, in which we put together all by ourselves.

rotation3x · 08-15-2007, 08:35 PM

I sold my S14 with alot of stuff done to it for 8,400 bucks dude got a hell of a deal.
sr20det black top
5 lug conversion
r32 big brakes
coilovers
bodykit /paint
mb weapon wheels

I bought a 2002 nissan xterra this was about 6 months ago I wanted the xterra to go snowboarding then a bunch of my friends got their project cars going and now i am driving a suv. I have tried to sell the xterra twice on ebay with no luck I found another S14 for a good deal, so as soon as I sel it I am getting the S14 I like the s13 but there are about 6 around my area and no s14's. ....plus I hate to say it but I really o miss wrenching on the damn thing.

08-15-2007, 08:42 PM

I thought I could get rid of my S13, boy was I wrong. I picked up a Ferrari F430, not bad.. a bit slow though. It had a fuel leak which I never fixed...

After the car cought fire, I decided.. there is no better car for me, than the stock S13 hatch. I like how it feels, stock. I mean, the KA has so much power - its all in the torque. Honestly, it FEELS faster than my Ferrari.

Oh how I love my S13.

Why do you like driving the S14 more?

240sx_sr20det · 08-15-2007, 11:13 PM

Started off with a 1989 gold Coupe...to a 1994 Mitsubishi 3000gt sl.. back to a 1990 SR Hatch. Unless you get the Vr4, 3000gt's suck and are so expensive to fix!

BTW that Lexus IS is so sick! Amazing car man!

s13silady · 08-15-2007, 11:30 PM

whats up Panges?

oh man i just sold my S13... it felt good when i sold it. but i felt like i cut off a finger or something lol...

but now i got my sc300 which ive been building a 2jz-gte ever since october of last year... hopefully ill have it done by the end of this year or summer of 08.

but for now ill enjoy luxury coupenezz..
and also my 03 yamaha R1...(4th bike) which i ride quite often.

here is a past recent picture of my car.

i think i wanna do another coupe in the near future... a vert.

nissantfsx · 08-16-2007, 12:38 AM

93 240sx hatch (sold it after a yr because of mechanical problems)
94 integra ls (sold it within half a yr...)
93 Prelude Si (sold it...in 3 months)
90 240sx hatch (clean body but someone crashed into it)
89 240sx hatch (automatic...sold it because it was automatic...)
91 240sx hatch (tired of the buying and selling game...so i just start on my project from here)

dvdevo · 08-16-2007, 03:26 AM

i regret selling my first 240 for a 510. the 510 was pretty fun but ehh i ended up buying my current car, s13 coupe with silvia front end. yum

Fast1One · 08-16-2007, 10:06 AM

I currently drive an A32 Maxima, will probably drive that thing till it dies. Love the power of the VQ

But I sure miss RWD...

Eventually I want to pick up an s14 in the future, but I doubt that will happen with people crashing them left and right, and a possible crack down on gasoline powered cars in the near future. Who knows, maybe we will be too stupid to do anything about gas and pollution by the time I have the money

nlzmo400r · 08-16-2007, 10:42 AM

My s13 was my first car, and now a few years later I thought about buying a z33 but I decided to keep the slut and get an '07 Frontier and trailer

KRMS13 · 08-16-2007, 10:55 AM

im about to sell my 93 240sx and get either a b16 eg or a k20a2 ep3!!!! give me a good reason to keep my 240sx. i really like it but that thing just keep on breaking on me. just the other day my 240sx just died on me!!!! but i found out what was wrong. but plan on getting one of those hondas!

lil240sx95 · 08-16-2007, 11:13 AM

i have a good one^^ once you drive a rwd the fwd just feels weird! you'll be like wtf!? believe me I tried it, well not with a honda..a volkswagon. but still rwd feels so much safer, and a whole lot more fun to drive..thats what i think

EchoOfSilence · 08-16-2007, 11:42 AM

i'm going to junk the 240 right when i graduate in a year or so.

i did this exact same thing. i regretted it. i crashed my 240 in 2000 or 2001 and bought a 96 civic cuz at the time parts were cheaper. well i put a built b18c in and it was damn fast. probably faster than my 240sx but it still wasnt very fun. you have to rev the shit out of a honda motor to go anywhere. i ended up selling the civic for a sc300 than after that back to a 98 240sx

KRMS13 · 08-16-2007, 06:28 PM

so should i just keep my 240 and not get those hondas?

No one's saying that... they're just saying you'll regret it.

yeah, i know. but that thing just keep on breaking down.

turbotractor97 · 08-16-2007, 08:53 PM
