Maybe they were too damn lazy to look under they car. But they have the hood open. The longitudinally mounted engine should be an even bigger dead give away.

That's completely ridiculous.

[g35gabby]

that is an old image, been floating around a while. I want to say it was them trolling, I doubt anyone is that dumb. it isn't like it is a rare car or something people don't see 1000 a day.

This.

You might be right if this was the doing it right or best cars of Zilvia thread.

[FaLKoN240]

You're being overly critical. That car is not on par with any of the bullshit ratchet40 cars.

Like I said before, "doing it wrong" is literally taking the (poor) modification of a car beyond the point of repair.

[omgRWDgoodness!]

There is nothing "doing it right" about a missing gas door, missing grille & corner/turn signal lights, different (and terrible)-colored engine bay, or especially that god-awful fucking bell-bottom aero.

[FaKe_de]

This bullshit.

"Price is 5,500.00 FIRM. FIRM means that is the lowest I will take for it, you understand? The condition of the car and the mods on the car are worth much more than I'm asking."

Sure to be a stellar buying experience. If that ever happens.

Most of their pictures, that I've just now looked at, of cars are at least one color... minus that disaster on their timeline photo...

now can we discuss/post more absurd 240s lol

If he can't get the simple stuff done, how did he do the rest of the car?

The car is multiple colors. I am sure it was sprayed at the same time. Looking at the wavy fenders. It looks like no bodywork or priming was done.

Greddy never made a polished intake. I question the legitness of the rest of the parts on the car.

It's not how much shit you put on your car. It's how you do it.

- blacked out tails (horrible for other drivers)
- windshield covered in stickers
- open wheel wells
- ghetto rigged and ziptied coolant reservoir
- zipties holding headlights (horrible for other drivers)
- ziptie chain holding random junkyard electric fan on

It may have some decent parts, but it still looks like every aspect of the car (power, handling, looks, etc.) were "projects" that were never quite finished and now makes the whole package look half assed.

I guess it's doing it right according to the new generation of S-chassis owners, but according to everyone else from any genre of automotive enthusiasts.....it's definitely doing it wrong.

And that orange heap of a mess that I posted is 'doing it wrong' for all the reasons already posted... The biggest one: $10,000.

Meth: Not even once.

[OBEEWON]

I see it now.
This has just turned into a hate thread.

[kingkilburn]

Broadfield's coupe is miles better and it's still sitting on jack stands. This heap isn't even doing it average.

Lets move on from this less than half assed coupe. It and the people that like it are swag incarnate. Shitty superficial flash and no substance. Dare to criticize this and you are an automatic hater.

Agree, red coupe is fine, everyone needs to calm the fuck down.

Wait so even Broadfeild isn't doing it right? WTF?

[1on1]

No. I think he was implying: Even if Broadfield's car is on stands, it's still by far better than the "red coupe."

Either way, the red coupe has more style than any ratchet240gang member.

[kingkilburn]

Broadfield stripped his car down and is rebuilding it from the ground up. Even in unfinished form it is a thing of beauty. I half want to put it in a glass box in a museum as an example of how you build a car.

How about no, resize those pics.
How about fuck your ninja edit.

[kingkilburn]

Those pictures are huge and I don't care.

and looks like someone used stop leak to fix a blown head gasket. there goes another KA

[PIEMAN909]

This guy has really good driving skills however, without a doubt the cars are doing it wrong.

[Shift_Kouki]

That's dope

So much wrong. What is with the fan clutch and no fan? I have never been able to remove my fan without removing the clutch from the pulley first. Nice rust too. I'm guessing straight water in a street car.

That must be a dead guy's bowling trophy procured from Goodwill because it's for damn sure nobody could give this horrid example of a 240sx any sort of accolade.

Seriously, I nearly spat my water all over my MBP...

[g35gabby]

[living4surf]

gabby to be fair thats my old aero i sold the guy and he never finished the car. yes it looks like shit if he had finished it the car would of been pretty nice (i don't agree with putting aero on before its ready to go straight to bodywork/paint)

[AFSil80]

This seems to be the only thread that kingkilburn and I are in constant agreement.

Not saying that scares me or anything, just saying that it shows how stupid these ratchet idiots really are.

[Bushido]

^ that zenki s14 + paint, corner lights, and grill. Ball Out.

hardly doing it wrong...not nearly as bad as this:



I love to bone

[danshaz]

why people paint their headlight surrounds anything but black is beyond me.
