That car looks half assed.

PPman · 06-30-2014, 06:31 AM

This thread started good, nothing but POS cars, but then, some cars that were posted here do not really belong here, just because is not in your taste, or you wouldn't do it I do not think they belong here just because you personally do not like them, so I propose let's put a standard for the vehicles that do belong on this thread this fail thread:

1- obviously beat up (dents in multiple places)
2- drift ready (the so called missiles)
3- different colors due to just throwing parts together
4- hacked jobs (clearly showing how they cut corners to "get it done" instead of doing it right)
5- shitty paint job (no need to explain this one)
6- excessive camber (although cars that look good should be exempt some people just like that look so as long as their car is not a POS in any other aspect it should not be here)
7- stickers (excessive amount of stickers for non pros, adding stickers for parts that are not on vehicle, etc)

Feel free to keep adding stuff to it, as I said this thread started great pointing out all the trashed cars, but then it turned into a I just hate that style thread, for that I propose those people start a "hate your style thread" lol

A couple people throwing stones should be stoning themselves. Not saying any names.

This looks like a witch hunt. More zilvia hate... did i even see joe havens coupe up there some where? You guys on crack rock.

Panda-Eats-240 · 06-30-2014, 02:11 PM

I thought this was supposed to hack jobs, not bickering and whining about others personal taste. If all of our cars were the same bland show queens then what would be the point? To some people its about fun, and some people don't have $5k to throw into their cars appearance when they know they'll be throwing it into a wall soon.

Back on topic, please?

Holy FUCK that looks like the Enovativ car built/owned by a Non Fujita. If it is, that is one of the best 240sx ever built, and especially in the US (even though non is Japanese)

Standard · 06-30-2014, 02:21 PM

^it is, its in the for sale section

While the car is quite a different animal now, it was insane in its time.
Completed and shot for super street in 1999 (TWO YEAR OLD CAR AT THE TIME)
It hosted an insane amount of work, and detail, and pride. This was a decade before 95% of current zilvians even bought a boost gauge.

This is totally directed at me. Lol i don't blame you though.

Alright boys and girls, this was my car a few months after I bought it...

But it's not as bad any more

You can't make fun of anyone until you learn to make fun of yourself.

Are those kei office modex in the rear? Excellent wheel choice(s).
Perfect example of taking a shitbox and bringing it up to a solid and respectable level.

YES was, I remember the car was also featured in Import Tuner as well. Back in its former glory it was good, now with a broken replica s14 Kouki Greddy front lip that is ziptied to the GTR style bumper along with a changes that should have never been done.

Basically what I'm trying to say is, it was fine before whoever decided to make those changes which are doing nothing but making it worse.

Yes they are! I have a full set, but one of them is bent and curbed. So I only have a pair on for now. Thank you very much!

Those stickers are gay. Not only because they are ugly but because they are restricting your field of view.

Rustys14 · 06-30-2014, 06:17 PM

Saw this on the local Craigslist and figured it belongs here. There are some pretty good fails in the Z community too... http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/m...541940243.html

i dont see why people cant enjoy some comedy... my car (depending on the year and state of build) easily falls into this thread... i mean, it already has

That car still fails, and it failed 10-15 years ago too. This thread is not just to bash on hoonigan's, it is to ridicule anything terrible and stupid that is related to a 240sx. Nopi cars, neon colors, stupid patterned exterior or interior panels, diamond "racing" steelies, welded differentials, etc... are all included.

This thread is about anything that's fucking stupid. Don't get your panties in a bunch because you don't think it's all stupid. It's OK to have a little bad taste...

Personal fail in the spirit of Mr OBEEWON! I don't know what the fuck I was thinking with that front bumper. As rare as it was it was just HIDEOUS. There's a reason why some things are rare. At least the car was built "right" though...

Sweet red door handle too!!!!!!

Holy shit, that's the same car! I remember that car from forever ago. In any case the car being sold only USED to be that car. $15k is fucking fail for an incomplete car...

nons car was built during a time when having a stereo system and tints was considered "highly modified"

i have a lot of respect for non, he was a pioneer

AFSil80 · 07-01-2014, 08:38 AM

^^^ Exactly. He built an insane 240 with a stroker motor when everyone else was frothing at the mouth over Edelbrock's 50 state legal turbo kit for Hondas. I'll always have an appreciation for that car.

That car, if it was close to the state it was in the article, is still stupid clean IMO by today's standard.

<---have done dumb shit as well, specially when I younger and didn't have near the access to information that is available these days.

HORShi · 07-01-2014, 09:15 AM

Eh. I wouldn't label this a fail at all. Try again.
Go back and stickerbomb everything, smash your corner lights and rear quarter panels in and we'll talk.

feito · 07-01-2014, 09:51 AM
