ah your 17 years old. Do you look at the title of this thread? This is about people who owned 240's before 2003. You don't qualify.

yup, i had that front end in 2000 i think. i used to love that car though. with the crazy wing on the back.

!Zar! · 04-11-2010, 01:47 AM

Who didn't like sa3r's? hahaha

ILoveMyRHS13 · 04-11-2010, 01:50 AM

I only ever liked them on the Genki S15 from way back when.

I've never seen another car in the history of ever to pull them off.

Another shot of my old S14 back in 2000

Kid's takes for granted all the turbo kits, SR swaps, RB swaps, CA swaps, and V8 swaps available these days. Before the swaps, a lot of us relied on NAWZZ LOL back then.

HyperTek · 04-11-2010, 01:43 PM

some old influential cars back in the day
sadly they would get hated on now for not being low and flush

nothing but legit parts on these cars though
still clean ass setups in my opinion today

I think this was jookybanana's car

came along away

"I gotta get those cookie popcorn lights for my hatch, bro!"

Every car meet circa 2001-03.

Chernobyl · 04-11-2010, 03:12 PM

I think I got this S14 in... 2002-ish? The photo is scanned.

16" Volk GT-U were such a rarity in CO those days. Now you'd get laughed at for running such small wheels. I remember being jealous of all the people that had SR swaps and coilovers and such back then. Couldn't afford any of it while in college.

Ah guess what? Its not a public forum, technically its a private forum. You have to be a member to post.

Once again I will say it, since it seems lost on you. You did not own a car back then you were a little child.
The thread title specifically spells out the rules of thread.

You fail at reading, you are a bandwagon Jumper. Now get off the Wagon and stop trying to justify the fact that you failed.

maplejesse · 04-11-2010, 04:09 PM

lol bandwagon jumper

cool story bro

Anybody who bought an S-Chassis after 2003 is theoretically a bandwagon jumper amirite?

HyperTek · 04-11-2010, 04:42 PM

oh no way, theres alot of young guys who keep it poppin and respectful build ups, i think the older guys are turned off with the younger "yeah bro cool story gotta slam that shit your shits weak mines better" guys that flock these forums now.

Teddy your dd is clean, much respect. it would be iconic 8 years ago.

Thanks buddy, I appreciate it!

Sorry I know I don't qualify to post in here, but I really love the old school 240s more than the new styles. I wish my PC hadn't crashed, I had so many old photos that I'm sure some of you would recognize.

GunmetalSR · 04-11-2010, 05:42 PM

im not an og but far from a badnwagoner...really never even liked f&f but anyways i started liking 240's when i was 10 when my brother bougfht a 91 s13 when he was 17 and he taight me how to drive it...over the years i drove other cars but i still wanted a 240 and finally got an s14 last year ...im 18 now lol

!Zar! · 04-11-2010, 05:47 PM

This thread isn't about whether you did or didn't like F&F and all that jazz. It is about reminiscing on how the scene was years back.

Word. It's starting to sound like people are justifying their OG-ness. Nobody cares..

I really enjoyed this stuff back in the early 2000s a lot more. Maybe it was because I was younger and more into the whole car thing, but it seems that people were more genuine and willing to help each other.

upsdude · 04-11-2010, 06:51 PM

i don't have alot of s-chassis related nostalgia, but i do remember when piaa foglights were all the rage. does that count? i do remember reading an article about the 240 in import tuner or turbo magazine back in the day tho. it said that the torque of the ka was great for getting up to speed on the onramp but lacked any top end power. this is like 10 yrs ago so i don't remember exactly what was written...they tested a black '98 kouki...of course all the mags had the honda bias :P

So F&F started the drifting and S-chassis bandwagon craze?!?! Shit, nobody knew what the fuck a 240sx was even after F&F, even when there was an S14 kouki in it. Nobody cared, prices for S14s didnt go up, only FDs and fucking Supras got raped after F&F.

What it did bring was the end of underground street racing in the states.

QFT!!! Thats the biggest thing I miss.

Homer_Simpson · 04-11-2010, 07:28 PM

I still remember the days when folks were excited about those Tokico HTS struts, S13 SR to S14 wiring was a complete mystery, Bomex was the shit, GP Sport were still in the US, cops didn't know what the hell a 240SX was, Black Racing N1 wheels were the rage, Kid Zelda was still on here, Ralph Kenyon etc.

I may have mixed up the time periods of the above, but that what I remember.

hahaha back when SR's were still rare. I had to wait about 3 or 4 months for Motorsport Dynamics in Sacramento to finish up the SR swap for me back then. Now kids do it in their backyard over the weekend.

Motorsport Dynamics!!! That's classic! I used to make a thing of it goin there. I loved driving on the side and looking at all the projects they had going on there. Damn back then i don't really think people purchased parts off the internet, you had to go to a shop and order it and wait 3-4 months. You can just go up to people in the parking lot and chat it up with them about cars. My brother in law works with that dude Jodi at some bio plant now haha!

I agree completely with you, Zar and Chernobyl on this Ray. This thread is having the same thing happen to it that happened to the whole 240sx world.

The little kids are jumping in trying to claim they are old school and being disrespectful at the same time.

Teddy you are rare among a lot of your peers. Most of them are just making it suck.

mrflip69 · 04-12-2010, 02:32 PM

Funny how a lot of the guys back then were broke and in college, hence the limited mods to their cars (expensive and not much options then). Now they've either saved up/earned enough money for a decent build up or have moved on with life :P

On another note, I haven't seen anyone call the KA a "truck engine" for a while LOL!
