I can relate to some of the things you guys are talking about. The s13 I own currently I purchased in 2008, I can honestly say I don't have any knockoff parts on it and have tried to put it together properly to the best of my ability. That being said it's probably one of the slowest s-chassis builds in the history of the world! The thing is though, 95% of the time the car is completely road worthy and drivable, not a tear apart and sit build. I enjoy the car immensely, and have a strong passion for these cars. I've always felt like I've been in the minority group of 240 owners, I've never once posted my car on social media, working on my 240 is just a personal hobby of mine that current trends don't influence.

The whole instant gratification thing with what seems like mostly the younger generation is so true, not to say all of them are like that though. The point that Zar made I completely agree with, people who respect and build these cars properly are out there more than most people think, and in my opinion will be the future of the s-chassis scene and the majority of owners in the not so distant future.
